MANCHESTER, Jan. 4.-The Guardian says;
Business opens quiet, partly owing 10 the holt
days and partly to the wide diverging between
sellers and buyers. There are very few orders
for Indian staples. The China demand is quite
small buyers wants being already satisfied at
lower rates For minor foreign markets sales
are moderate. Home sales are very few. In
the several departments production Is well and
sometimes fully engaged. and in view of the
continued frlnnesS of cotton, much confidence
is felt in the maintenance of full rates. OF the
cloth departments the advance does not suffice
to cover the rise III cotton yarn. and conSe-
quently manufacturers are not willing to engage
important forward contracts until margins I'M
prove. Export yarns are exceedingly tirsn, but
there rs poor inquiry and very little business.
Cloth is quiet throughout. Producers meet with
poor lccess in trying to establish higher quota
tons. Heavy goods are steady: There is some
business, chiefly in small quantities"

Green & Co. s report on cotton futures says:
There was no improvement in the toni, or
character of the market. and under the slow
process of liquidation rates gradually receded.
Foreign advceS were tame to-day. Port re-
cepts continued to run somewhat ahead of esti-
mates, and with reports from the eastward indi
eating that Eastern spinners had pretty well
supplied their immediate wants, it was imposs
Tie to introduce any feature Of stimulating
character Indeed. the only effort to support
the position against a more positive decline
came from the longs who. when they found
unloading was carrying rates too fast, came in
and pegg d rates point or two to check the
decline. AS against last evening some 6G7
points lower was shown. with the close barely
steady"
