Messrs. Hubbard. Price & Co.'S cotton circu
lar OF to-day says: The opening report from
Liverpool this morning reaSsuring in its
effect on this market, and the liquidation of a
large long interest which was accomplished
yesterday, left prices free to react as was ma
tural after the extreme depression. The market
opened at an advance of 7GcS points, and a
further improvement of 4G5 points followed
After feverish aud huctuating market, with
transactions reaching the exceedingly large
total OF 262,OOO bales prices finally steadied up
showing at the close an Improvement of some
1904 points over last nights close, and being
about the top for the day. The feeling is a
much steadier one and buying has appeared TO
strong
Receipts at Southern ports are large, especially
at New Orleans, but the overland movement
which it was rumored early in the day would be
large, proves to be only 24,OOO, against 40 eco
last year, and from these figures believers in
short croptheOries get their first crumb of com
fort. Some douot is felt as to whether weak
long interest, which precipitated the recent de-
cline, is entirely lquidated, but the majority OF
opinions are agreed that it is substantially out
| of the way, and the market is now left free to
| respond to natural influences of supply and de
| mand."
