Cotton Futures.

New YoRK, March 3.-The SIMS cotton re-
view says: ut was what may be termed q
waiting market 1t was certainly a market
without features of striking interest. There
was just enough of an advance in spool to cause
a little covering here, which led to a moderate
advance, and yet the foreign advices we're not
of a nature to friRhten many Of the bears or
induce much buying for the long account.
There was no definite news in regard to
the English strike and it is agreed on all hands
upon the news in regard to the struggle be-
tween the master spinners Of Lancashire and
the starving operatives who have held out
pluckily for some months and refused to &C.
cede TO the terms OF the employers which,
as is well known, calls for reduction il wages
Of per cent. The crop movement in this
country is light, but the trade he re and abroad
is also light. in fact business Is nearly at a
standstill while men watch the progress Of the
great industrial battle in England. Tranac-
tious to-day were much smaller than usual
of late. Prices advanced points and closed 20
points higher than yesterday, with sales OF
1Q 200 bales. The market closed quiet. Liver
pool advanced u to III points, closing barely
steady with spot sales Of 5000 bales. In Man
chester yesterday yarns were higher aud irregu-
vanced 6dl7 points. Spot prices here
were unchanged at 96 for middling uplauds
with sales of l. $50 bales for export and 96 for
spinning, closing dull Southern spot markets
were generally quiet and unchanged. New Or
leans sold 800 bales. The receipts at the
ports were 6,0S5 against 1874 for this day
last week and 24,95S last year
The total for the week is co. S02 bales against
g., S15 last week and 12!, 674 this day last year
Exports from the ports we're "a. 33i bales. The
