The Suns cotton review says: Futures
opened dearer and. with but slight reactions,
steadily advanced, closing at about the best
figures OF the day, with pretty large business
done. 1t is the old story, SO often repeated
since Christmas-when prices were &c pound
lower than now-bears were at the mercy of
bulls, scared to death and climbing for their
cotton. Extreme prices begin to be talked of
One wiseacre declared that there can be no
check to the rise until Lancashire goes short
time, and that this will not be done below I'd at
Liverpool. Weather reports from the south
Were fairly favorable, yet next crop was few
points dearer; middlng uplands 12Ac, middling
