In Inferior ana Low Ordinary, nc in Ordinary
and Strict Ordinary TgAc in GOOD Ordinary,
1Sc in Strict Good binary and 16c in the inside
figures OF Low Middling and the grades above.
The recent large movement in the lower grades
has gradually impaired to them an upward ten
dency, which, in the general buoyancy OF the
market to-day eliminated in the advance noted
above. The outside figures are for good staple
kinds, comparatively clean and white, which have
been in stesdy request for spinners.

auence Of dispatches reporting Liverpool hard

satisfactory character Of the assortment
