Hubbard, Price & Co. say: Liverpool cotton
to-day showed an advance of aud points, and
as our market exhibited some signs of life, the
short interest covered rather freely taking the
cotton that had been rest on the market TO the
past two weeks. Very little business has mani
tested itself, and no signs of revival are to be
found in the advance OF to-day. Trade returns
from the British board of trade show that their
exports for the month Of March are the largest
on record, and overcome the previous deficiency
existing in business from Oct. last. This state
meQC was q very great surprise TO the trade, as
all reports, both private and official, had led
operators to believe that business IN Manches-
ter, up to the past few days, had been poor.
This statement, however, seems to be con-
vincing that the business in January and Feb
ruary had been largely in contracting for
March delivery on middlings. The crop moves
on scale continually larger than last year,
both interior and port receipts showing an in
crease"
