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.

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.
