Messrs. Hubbard. Price & Co.'S cotton circu-

vices, our cotton market for certificates opened
at an advance of points for old and points
for new crop. Transactions did not exceed the
| average amount of trading to which we have
become accustomed during the present dull
ness of trade, the principal dealings being
| represented by selling June and buying August
at difference of Is points. The movement of
receipts at all ports increased sellers, and prices
