MOBILE, Feb. 23. p. in— Cotton— ln our last
report we left the market dull and drooping—mid
dling quoted at 9* a 10c. Since then prices have
been gradually sinking, though there ha? been
rather more doing, and the sates of the past three
days are estimated at some 70;K) hales, as follows :
2 500 on Saturday, a 2,009 on Monday, and
2,500 bales to-day. VVe quote middling 91c. The
receipts since Friday are 9,622 bales, and the ex
ports same lime 2,322, leaving the slock on hand
litis evening 169,798 bales.

NEW ORLEANS, Feh, 24— Cotton. —Arrived

•tuck of 4478 bales, and leaving on hand, inclu
sive «f all on shipboard not cleared on the 23d
instant, a stock of 272,777 hales.
We had occasion to stale in our last semi-week
ly report tiiat the news of a decline of i a Id in
the Liverpool market subsequent to the departure
of the Hibernia had completely put a slop to trans
actions here, as buyers entirely w ithdrew to await
the arrival of their commercial circulars and cor
respondence, and we closed on Friday without a
market, and without quotations. On Saturday an
other failure of the mail again dep ived parlies of
their private advices, and left the market in an un
settled condition. only three of four lots, amount
ing to about 1500 bales, having been disposed of,
*nd these at prices exhibited a further de
cline of Ito a ic. On Sunday the mail came thro’
bringing the foreign circulars and correspondence,
which confirmed ihe dull and declining slate ofibe
Liverpool market, as represented in our last report,
and our market remained very heavy throughout !
Monday, though there was a slight increase of
business, the sales having amounted to about 2700
bales. A'esterday buyers came forward more free-
Jv. and sales to the extent of fully 8 0 liales were
effected, though w it bout anv recovery in prices, ns
the large supply on the market, together with the
high rales of freight, and a still further decline in
exchange, exercises a depressing influence. The
transactions have been confined entirely to grades
below fair.and for»these we have arranged quota
tions to conform a« nearly as po>sih!e to the actual
position of the market, though it should he remark
ed that the prevalence of great irregularity, both
in prices and classification, renders strict accuracy
extremely difficult. The figures which we have
adopted exhibit a decline of fully 24c per lb from
the highest point some four weeks since. The
finer qualities remain nominal, in the absence of
any transactions. The total sab sos the past three
days sum tip *2.200 hales, taken principally for
England ami France, with some parcels fur other
Continental ports.
