Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York. December 15.--tSpecial) Although Liverpool fully responded to our advance the market here paused during the early session and lost a portion of the extreme advance, be- coming quiet. This is a most natural course after the activity of the past week, especially as the south showed a disposition to meet the advance by increased offering'
 The local traders are unsettled in their views, but they feel that the buy- ing of the past few days was more in the nature of short covering than of investment. 1t is probable, however, that on any decline the American spin- ners will become free buyers. Advices from Europe report the continent as again buying.
 During the late afternoon further short covering and buying by some spot firms brought recovery above yesterdays closing prices.
 Liverpool is due from 2 to points higher in the morning.
