REM A RKB—By our tables published this morn ing it will he seen that the excess in receipts this year over last is only 48.312 bales—giving as the excess in receipts at all tlie ports, for last week, only 826 bales more than were received during the corresponding week last year. Os the receipts, the increase at Savannah, Charleston and Florida, is 194,514 bales. While the decrease at New Or leans, Mobile, Virginia anil North Carolina is 150,- 213 bales. As we remarked in a former number, the general impression seems to he that the high pri.es paid Tor cotton this season, has forced it for ward, and that by the middle of M irch the receipts at the different ports will show a falling off and continue to do so until the new crop makes its ap pearance. 'Fiie exports show a falling off to Liv erpool of 122.917 b les, and to France of 4,201 bales—to other foreign ports the re is an increase of 22.959 bales. To coastwile ports the shipments this year have been 256,961, against 208,823 hales last year, showing an inctcase of 48.138 bales.— The shipments to all quarters exhibit a fallingoff of 56,021 bales as compared with last year, while the increase in the tracks held at the different ports is £8,210 bales. COTTON—We have a dull and jinsetlk-d week to notice in our Cotton market since our last re view. Both buyers and sellers have been anxious ly awaiting the advices per Baiah Sands, which came to hand on Saturday evening last, hy tele- 1 graph, but the cotton advices were of so meagre and unsatisfactory a character that nothing could be made of them. The mail due oa Sunday, by r which the foreign letters were expected, failed to come to hand, but by the arrival of the steamer Southerner at Charleston, we were put in posses sion of her accounts in full in tiie New York pa pers of the 10th. They however, were unsatisfac tory, and l.ttle or no business was transacted on Monday, both buyers and sellers seeming disposed to await the receipt of their letters by Monday’s mail. On Monday evening they met with smoth er disappointment, as tiie northern mail again fail ed, which left our market much in the same state yesterday as on Monday. There was, however, yesterday a little more looking about, but buyers and sellers were too far apart in their views for transactions to take place—the former demanding a concession from last week's prices of * a I c which few or none of the warehouse dealers would ac cept, and most of them have withdrawn their sara ples, until the market becomes more settled.— Some few sales were made out-doors from wagons and stores, of small lots, at i to Ic. decline from the prices paid on Wednesday last, biU holders, gen erally show no disposition to sell at the present mo ment. The sales this week, as far as they have been reported to us sum up only 2,314 bales, near ly all of which was disposed of previous to the re ceipt of the Sarah Sands’ advices. The particu lars are as follows ; IS at 9s, 15 at 9i, 42 at 10. 27 at 101, 291 at IM, H2at 101,223 at 101,204 at lOJ, 397 at 10J, 15 at 10 13-16, 63at ICJ, 410 at 11,131 a t 111,216 at lU, 16 at 111, 52 at m,and23atll| cents.

Extract of a letter received in this city, dated LIVERPOOL, Jan. 19th, 1847. —Since ourCir i cularof-lth inst. by last steamer, the money mar ket has undergone rather a decided adverse change, influenced considerably no doubt hy the increased pressure on the Continent ami money crisis in France. The Bank of England has ad vanced its minimum rate of interest I per cent, but the general rate in the market is more decided ly higher, with greater stringency in discounts, ; both as to ihe class of paper and the time it may have to run. It also seems to he generally expect ed that the Bank will further advance the rate almost immediately. We have had a languid cotton market since our last, the consumers buying on an unusually limit ed scale; and though the Americrn crop accounts by the steamer of Ist inst. are considered to be still more decidedly in favor of holders, prices have sunk about id per lb. from the highest point, and even at this reduction it would not he possible to sell largely. The business for the week ended 15th inst. amounted to 29,250 bales, of which , 14,000 were taken by speculators and 2000 far ex -1 port. The American descriptions consisted of 7250 j Upland at 6 a 71, 11710 Orleans at 5} a 9, 4490 Alabama and Mobile at 5} aB, and 240 bea Island | at 13 a 20id per lb. The sales for three days to j this evening are estimated at 7500 bales; and tlie i speculative demand seems for the present snspend ! ed. The value of the belter qualities is affect i ed than the lower grades, and the limited transac tions in fair Upland are at about 7d, fair Mobile 7y, and fair Orleans TUI, The corn markets have undergone some further advance, the supply still inadequate to the demand. It being strongly suspected that the Government i will propose the abolition of the duly on flourand | grain, bonded flour has been selling freely at 12sa j 13s per bbl for Western, and as Parliament meets to-day, it js probable that the decision of the Go vernment as to the July may go out by this stcam- I er to-morrow. The flour market has not la:en quite | so firm the last day or two, and 42s is now about the top price for Western; Philadelphia 41 a 4ls 6d.
