New York April 1.-THE Sun, in its re-
view OF to-days cotton market, says: De
! preston in Liverpool and the big receipts Of
! late at the ports and interior towns as well
! as mr. a 4
| cline early in the day but this was recovered
| later on, owing to a prediction of decidedly
! cold weather in the southwest, covering Of
| shorts and bull manipulation. The
! speculation was still quite moder
/ ate, and the spot trade in
| this country and abroad is generally
| unsatisfactory. A New York firm said: 1t
! is Lecoming evident to those who choose to
| believe 1t that movement from the interior
| is 1t the expense Of movement that natur-
| ally would have occurred later, but which is
now being realized on account Of the disap-
| pointment of spot holders, who have seen, for
! some time past, an almost continuously de-
| Ginning market, with a free movement, and in
| dcations'of further weakness. 1t is, of course.
| disheartening to those who have been led to
| expect, for some time past. a decided falling
! OF from last year, which so fer has hope been
| deferred. But if there is any reliance to be
| placed in the information Of people who have
responsible correspondence, then 1t must be
| that the supply in the interior is being so
| rapidly exhausted as TO give US very small

| by two or three prominent houses here which
| indicate either that they are prepared to
! take spot cotton in case Of tender, or that
/ those who are short prefer to buy in that
mOnth and sell the latter months. 1t may be
that the spot situation is getting so strong in
this country that we may hereafter
| act more independently of Liverpool
than we have been doing up TO this
| time. We learn from telegram
! to firm from Houston, Tex, that a decided
| falling of in the movement there is expected
| soon. Houston has teen receiving daily, for
| some time, considerably in excess Of last
| year; Memphis continues to ship freely OF her
| stock, the loss since Friday last being $500
| bales"
New York, April 17.-Riordan & Co. say Of
| cotton to-day: Liverpool to-day showed
! declining tendency, and our opening was at
! fresh decline with very Respondent feeling
among the bulls, which continued throughout
| the forenoon. May opened at 1850, and
| These prices were so low that there was no
| great pressure to sell, but there seemed to
be still less inclination to buy, and the trading
was exceedingly dull and sluggish. Early in
the afternoon however, kilograms annbunc-
| ing cold weather in Texas, with threatened
frost, sent a SILVER among some OF the shorts,
who began buying brisIly to cover. The de-
mand disclosed the fact that there were few
! sellers, and the market quickly and easily
advanced 8 points, May reacting to 744c.
The close was steady, with 7-43 bid for May.
If Liverpool should support our rally we
might go higher, but we can see nothing in
the conditions of supply and demand, Just
now, to warrant the expectation of any last
ing advance
