COTTON.

The market this morning opened weak,
with prices nominal and dropping. Liv-
erpool was reported dull and easier, with
middling uplands at SD and Orleans at
sgd; sales, 10000 bales. New York for
spot cottons was quoted dull and nomi-
nal, with middlings at 1870 and futures
dull and easier. New Orleans was dull
aud inactive, with middlings at l75c.
The dullness and weakness of the mar
ket in Liverpool and New York had a
corresponding effect on the market here,
and in consequence buyers were not dis
posed to concede to holders prices. Of
ferings were fair, with wide difference
between sellers and buyers; hence, the
market was weak andinact!ve, with light
transactions. A few outside lots OF or
binary changed hands at l3@l33c, low
middlings at l74c and middlings at l7ac.
At noon the market was heavy, with
prices dropping.
