Hubbard, Price & Co. s report say of cotton:
THE fire in New Orleans yesterday that, &C.
cording to this morning papers, had DESTROYED
about 1000 bales OF cotton has been the main
feature of the market to-day. Later advices
from New Orleans reduce the estimate OF the
loss to about $4,000 bales. Most Of the cotton
seems to have been at the press under process
Of shipment. and fear that the contract sold
against in Liverpool and elsewhere would have
to be covered resulted in giving us advance
OF 10 points at the opening here. In Liverpool
the same influence was the basis of an improve
ment of from 3.6404 64d. In our market, how
ever, the full advance has not been maintained.
By o'clock half OF 1t had been lost. During
the afternoon the market continued dull but
steady; closing finally at points advance on
