NEW YoRK, Feb. 3.-Hubbard. Price & Co q
cotton circular says: THE course of the cotton
market still continues toward lower level of
prices In both Liverpool and New York quo
tations for futures are below those of yesterday
and lower than the lowest formerly reached
Opening figures were some 70s points below
last evening. bear raid later carried prices
some points further down but by O'Clock a
slight recovery resulted upon the news that
New Orleans receipts tomorrow would be
only 5000 bales. February contracts to day
nave not been quite as strong relatively, as they
were few day ago, aud it seems to be the i'm
preston that the narrowing of differences will
result in the delivery OF a considerable quantity
or cotton on near positions. During the after
noon the market was without much change
closing steady at net decline of about 10 to ii
points from last evenings figures. Port re-
ceipts for the day are q. Co., against 14000 last
week. and q 600 bales last year. Receipts at
the interior towns of Memphis st, Louis
augusta and Cincinnati are 5,2O1, against 5, 403,
last year"
MANCHESTER. Feb 3-The Qua, dams COM
mercal articles says: THE demand during tho
week was feeble and signs of depression were
more manifest, though prices were rarely
lower. Dizziness was most pronounced in gray
staples. especially In India and China shirtines
There is little hope OF securing business owing
to the inadequate inquiry in merchants hands.
There have been fair inquiries for miscellaneous
fabrics, Resulting in a few sales Sales OF print
ing cloths and light India heavy goods have
been quiet; yarns are dull. Weakness in cotton
checks the demand. Sales are below produc-
ton"
