| New York, Oct. 12.-The Suns cotton re-
| view says: prices were up II point owing
! to the advance in Liverpool and at the south
renewed activity there, reports of an active
/
small recei pts at the ports and interior towns,
| together with predictions OF cooler weather
| at the south, and brisk, possibly destructive
| winds on the coast, with considerable
| buying for New York, the south and Europe
But the estimated receipts at New Orleans
! to morrow OF 1900 bales, or more than double
those Of the same day last year, caused good
| deal OF selling, partly for foreign account,
and at the close prices were only to points
above the closing quotations Of yesterday and
the tone barely steady. Sales of l89 600 bales
! Liverpool advanced to 81 points, with spot
| sales Of 1900 bales In New Orleans futures
advanced 10 to II points, closing 6 points
| higher than yesterday Spot cotton here was
| quiet and unchanged at S&c for middling up
| lands with sales of 800 bales for spinning
there was an advance of 1-lG4bc at Ave
southern markets and 316c at Savannah
| New Orleans sold II 800 bales The receipts
at the ports we're 36117 bales. against 32, 1876
! bales this day last week and 40,3l7 this day
! last year. Total thus far this week 2166l3
bales, against 1874 087 bales thus far last
week. The exports from the ports were 90,77s
! bales"
New York, Oct. 12-Riordn & Co., say of
| cotton: Liverpool to-day showed much
! strength. The receipts were comparatively
! light and our market advanced sharply.
! January opened at s. 45c and upon large trans
! actions advanced to $50. Prices would proc
! ably have climbed higher but for the an
! nouncement that the receipts at New Orleans
! tomorrow were expected to be very heavy.
the market yielded about s points
under the pressure, The close was
| barely steady with S.42 bid
! for January. The bears are confident that
| silver repeal bill in the senate will give us
| lower prices. besides, every day now that
passes without killing frost in the south in
| creases the yield Of cotton and weakens the
position of the bulls, but as long as Liver
pool holds firm we cannot give way much
