| The following is the suns cotton review:
| Futures had a buoyant opening. Liverpool
| made an advance that seemed to be surprise
| here. for we responded but feebly, and at but
| small advance. The market relapsed into dull
ness, scarcely changing point in three or fonr
| hours; operators generally showing dispose
| ton to await developments. Southern markets
| were in some cases more active, and st. Louis
was quoted Lice dearer. The weather in that
| section is becoming warmer, promising favor
| able opening to the planting season. Sales
aggregated a, 400 bales. Spot cotton was more
| active at steady prices"
