A Rise I'm the Price Of Cation.

LIVERPOOL. Feb. 1.-The rise in the
price of cotton is attributed by the dealers
IN this city to natural causes, and not to
any new effort on the part OF specpators
in this commodity. Reliable firms in the
southern states of America cabled over to
merchants here their belief that the crop
this coming year will not exceed seven
and quarter million OF bales, instead Of
the seven and half millions Of bales
which it was expected few weeks ago
would be the yield this year. This news
is regared here as the real cause of the
rise.
