New York, Jan. 15.-Riordan & Co. say
of cotton to-day: "The market was dis
appointing to-day. March opened at 7.O6c,
advanced to 7.11c, declined to 702c, and
closed at 7.04d7.05c, with the tone quiet.
Rather liberal port receipts caused the
decline, but at every depression buyers for
cotton seem to appear, their idea seems
to be that the price has discounted the
large movement and every other unfa-
Vorable influence; that though a further
decline is possible, it cannot be of a very
serious character, and that practically we
have already seen the bottom prices. We
still favor buying on every depression, and
proft-taking on rallies"
New York, Jan. 15.-The Sun says of
cotton: "The trading to-day was devoid
of new or interesting Developments. The
speculation, what there was of it, was
confined for the most part TO local scalp
ers, and the fluctuations in prices were
within a narrow range with the tendency
downward. The first quotations showed
irregular changes, near months being
lower and the distant deliveries slightly
higher. Then the tone became somewhat
frmer, and at one time the general list
was a trihe higher than last nights final
quotations. But even this slight i'm
provement was soon lost in the absence
of support, and prices slowly receded,
closing at about the lowest figures of the
day. The receipts at the interior towns
for the week was slightly larger than last
week, and Liverpool sold here at one
time but the worst feature was the dull
ness of speculation. Spot markets were
firm. better advices were received from
the dry goods district and Liverpool was
higher but owing to the intense dull
ness nriceS weakened. y
