The Posts cotton report says Future de-
Lveries, after having again risen T-lOJCg6- lO0c,
we're freely offered, and lost all of the advance
before the third cali. At the third call the
market displayed weakness, and January was
bought at II l6.Gll l5c, February II l5c and
April n soc. That two poor crops should fol-
low each other is the best argument IN favor
o. the bulls, party" Although II IS 10 be
acku0wledged that present appearances point
90 less than 6,oOoO 900 bales, yet II Is too early
to determine as to the result Of this crop; be-
sides, prices have advanced l1s9l5z. On the
other hand. trade is not good: the stocks OF
cotton are quite sufficient at present. Foreign
sHuuers are well supplied, and the export
demand is beginning to fall OF and outside
speculat0rs seem not disposed 10 come 1n-3t
