 Hubbard Bros. q Co.'S Letter
 New York, July S.-(Special.) )-Liverpool advices are good, but Manchester was somewhat dull. Trading has been very light and is almost wholly local, though some ordsrs from Liverpool absorbed tho old crop offerings. The weather generally is of more seasonable character, but somo private accounts are calamitous and over. drawn. In fact. they are ignored and per- sistent bull support appears necessary to sustain the market In which new features are needed. During the afternoon a de- mand appeared from the commission houses steadying prices.
