The Cotton NGOvamaut-

The New York Financial Chronicle has
returns from the Southern ports showing the
receipts, exports, ETC., of cotton for the
week ending April %. From the figures
thus obtained it appears that the total
receipts for the seven days have reached
46,373 bales against $3.50 bales last
week, 1895 bales the previous week, and
1857 bales three weeks since, making the
total receipts since the first of September,
1872, 1920, 1913 bales against 1864, 1852 bales
for the same period of 1S7l-2, showing an
increase since Sept. l, 1872, of 645, 246
bales. The exports for the week ending
same date reach total Of 60,872 bales, of
which 44,584 were to Great Britain, 5,707
to France, and 10,561 to rest of the CONT
nent, while the stocks as made up are now
439, bales. Compared with the cores
bonding week Of last season, there is an in
crease in the exports this week of 81 ,901
bales, while the stocks tonight are 16O,4S
bales more than they were at this time a
year ago. We extract from the Chronicle
1t hand as follows:
BOMBAY CROP.-The excellent promise
OF an increased crop in Iudia this year, of
which we published the evidence early in
the season, is being fully realized in the
large movement now in progress. The re-
ceipts at Bombay from the last of February
up to the present time have been 373, 900,
agaiL 81 100000 bales for the same week of
last year, while the exports have only beeu
276,000 bales, against 300 900 bales in 1872.
1t would appear, therefore, that the stock
on hand at bombay must have increased
$1,000 bales since March l, while during
the same period of 1872 there was a de-
crease of 1900 bales. This increased
stock, together with the further fact that
the India cotton even now afoat TO all of
Europe is 349, 900 bales, against $4,000
bales, indicates that soon the supply of this
description of cotton is likely to be fully up
to if not in excess of last season. This
conclusion receives confirmation in the
latest mail reports as to the out-turn of the
crop. Messrs. w. Nicol & Co., Of Bonn
bay, writing under date of March Ia, state
We have received some figures from cor
respondents in the Berars respecting the
probable Out-turn ofthe OomraWuttee crop,
and from these it would appear that the
early Pr representations of an unusually large
yield are likely TO be verified. The crop is
described as being undoubtedly the heaVi-
est Berar has ever produced" and it is
estimated that almost two-thirds of the
total yield have yet to be brought to mar
ket. If this statement be correct, and we
have no reason to doubt It's accuracy, we
may still look hopefully for a relatively
lower range OF prices in this description.
Accounts from Guzerat speak favorably of
the prospects of Out-turn as regards the
Breach crop, and f:om Dhollera also re-
ports favor high estimates.
BOMBAY OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES to orr
cable dispatch received to-day, there have
been 10000 bales shipped fIom Bombay to
Great Bri all the past week and 1000
to the continent, while the receipts at Bonn
bay, during the same time have been 65, 1000
bales. Compared with last year there is an
increase this year in the weeks ship
ments from Bombay to all of Europe of 49,
900 bales, and that the total movement
since Jan. l shows decrease in shipments
of 126, 900 bales compared with the cores
ponding period of 1872.
