Messrs. Hubbard. Prico & Co. S cotton circu-
lar says: After a rather duh opening, with
sales at last nights prices, very little ANNA
ton was shown to assist values and offers in
creased. The fact that the advance Of this
week has to a considerable extent led to cover
ing on the part of shorts and nervous bears
and has further created new long interest,
seems TO have taken the power away to support
the increased cost, and under sales to realize
profits as well as to renew short engagements,
prices declined points. The free movement Of
the crop, both in ports and interior towns acts
as an additional depressing factor"
