It was to commence early and continue late; it was to be here, in the familiar phrase first, last and all the time" at least for January But it has thus far failed to appear: the deluge is not up to schedule time. The New Orleans receipts today exceeded the estimate, it is true, being 11,060 bales, where as the estimate for today was 950O bales, but what Is this in comparison with the sud- den falling off hn the receipts at the interior towns, and especially when it is remember receipts may fairly be attributed to larger terminal facilities at that port? Liverpool was lower and Manchester was rather weaker, but for all that New York and New Orleans prices closed higher and if the advance continues it is not doubted that Liverpool. will follow. There was more ex- port demand here, and later on it is likely to be quite large. The market here is nar- row; room operators oversell themselves from time to time, and outsiders are be- ginning to take more interest in the specula- south and west bought here today, Inman Swan & Co. are said to be buying spot cot ton quite freely at the south.
