Hubbard, Price & Co., in their cotton circular
to-day, say: The market has been one of sur
prises to both 6uls aud bears. To bears the
surprises were from Liverpool which, despite
the weakness of this market yesterday, opened
strong at 1903 points over last nights figures,
and closed firm with the improvement well
maintained. This market failed to respond to
the strength of Liverpool i'll any marked degree,
| and although prices were at one time put up TO
S5c for March, the close almost weak, and
but 1908 points above last evening. Here the
| failure of the market to respond to the en-
| couragement given by Liverpool has been due
to two causes: First, the narrowneSs and apathy
| of speculation, and second, increased move
ment st the ports and the prospect that re-
ceipts at the interior towns for Che week will be
nearly 50,000 bales as against 1900 last year
| The increase, howe er, is mainly at the three
large towns of Memphis, st. Louis and Augusta,
and is attributed by our correspondents there to
high water in the rivers and mild weather,
which permit of the ma ketinx Of q large guam
tity of cotton, which it is not generally prac-
ticable to move until March or April when the
| spring freshetS make the smaller streams
