NEW ORLEANS, La, Nov. ll,-At-
wood. Violet & Co., say:
Futures-Contrary to all expectations,
Liverpool opened firm at slight decliue,
but Lied lower on spots. New York ad-
vanced s, and We improve points. Both
markets subsequently, lost all the i'm
provements, but, on shorts covering,
closes to points better there than

kilograms give no announcement
for permanent Improvement, and the
monetary troubles, added to other intiu-
ences, which are construed as favorable
to cotton. The bankers of New York
