CHARLESTON, April 17.— Cotton. —Our re port of the lOih inst., left the market in a very firm posiiion. Very Mill * had been done for several | • fays prior to Friday, hut on that day some activity i prevailed, and w hen we closed our inquiries, tin* 1 transactions had reached near 2400 hales, at full prices. There wis also a fair demand forthearii « !e on Saturday last, which, however, was con fined solely to the belter descriptions of I Upland,and on these grades the prevailing rates of the previous j day w-re not ordy fully sustained, hut it is gene- i rally conceded that factors would occasionally oh- i lain a slight ascendency over purchasers. Non- 1 cay was a very quiet day. Whether I lie prices rr- : quired did ri"t suit the views of those operating, nr ! whether their orders had been exhausted. we will i jot undertake to determine. hut csgtaiu it is, that I very little was done, as only 1 ‘JOtialfs changed 1 liands. Tuesday’s Northern mail put the trade in possession of accounts from the other si !e, show - | ing a decline of [ to Id iu this staple, which exer- j cised an unfavorable influence over prices. Du- j ring the day about 7uO hales were h night, taken i principally to fill a limited order for Spain, on ! easier tesnis, but there is some discrepancy' in the i viewsaf dealers as to the extent of the reduction, | some placing it at 4c , while others with an equal j degree of perlinacitv inaiutain that the hulk of ihe l operation' were made at a |c. off; he tins, how ever. as it mar. holders generally did not seem disposed to submit even to tins sacrifice, and ns ; mice withdrew fheii stocks, since w hich time only I about 700 hales haxe been sold at irregular prices. I It is more than probable that nothing of mn«f ! quence will he done until \ve receive the accountt i by the steamer of the 4th inst.. and whether sellers j *.\ill he able to sustain their present, position, de- j pen is a good ileal upon i he complexion of these ad vices, which the future alone must determine; in thr mean time we have thought it advisalde to con tinue our quotations of the 10th instant, with the remark that for the present they must to a certain extent he con-idered nominal.

After having been soaked, the Seeds must be drained in a sieve or basket, and immediately planted. P>r the information of those who wish second testimony on this matter, he subjoins the opinion of some well known Agriculturists, who tried the preparation on Wheat last Fall, and now renew their orders for an enlarged quantum for spring seedings. Extract of a let'er from JOTTN S.- SKIN NER, Esq., dated February 15. 1815. Your So lution was tried, not b, me, but mv own son, P. G.

It has constantly appeared thus far as if the land in which the Wheat stteeped in the Solution was seeded had been manured, and I lie other not; whereas the whole was dres* >d the preceding spring with barn-yard manure, &c.

Green Valley Farm, August 2 7, ISlu. — I hare tried your solution, 1 ist fall on Wheat. I sowed a piece of land of three acres,' one half the seed soaked with the Solution, and th>* oilier without am' soaking. One acre and a half, with the seed soaked, gave 21 i bushels Wheat, the other one and a half acres only Gelded I2|; the Wheat weighed 594 pounds j*er bushel, while that not soaked, onlv 57L The Wheal soaked came up nearly four days before the other, and harvested I tireive days sooner.
