The market opened under the favorable in.
fuence OF an advance of 1-16d at Liverpool
where the sales were put down at ,OO(
bales, and OF &c in spots at New York, but
the movement was checked by dark and rainy
weather and more stringent pretensions on
the part OF factors, who claimed an advance
OF 5Gic. The movement during the morn
ing was consequently of limited extent and
later in the day the same influences restricted
operations, and the sales were confined to
34OO bales Good Ordinary sold at 49, and
1859. Low MIddling at IA, 14l and 14$. and
Strict Middling at Is and Isl. The liberal
receipts at this port had no sensible inhu-
ence, it being reported that to-morrows will
be light 1t will be seen that the excess over

putting the receipts up to the corresponding

son were made with the corresponding dav of
