ing cotton weigher, informs US that from
September 1st to October 10th, our little
town bought 1870 bales of cotton. On
Saturday, the 3rd inst, 1G0 bales were sold
to the Beton cotton buyers. Last Satur-
day, the 10th, 12S bales were sold in our
market for 81 to 81 cents. The sales for
the week ending October 10th aggregated
420 bales. In proportion to the number OF
buyers and the population of the town,
few places can make better report OF the
sales of cotton than can Bolton. And
Bolton not only gives the top of the mar
ket for cotton, but it sells goods at the
lowest living prices. Give our merchants
trial.
