CHER AW, July 27 .—Cotton. —We have no transactions to note with the exception of a stored lot of about twenty bales, fair, sold to Marlboro* factory at 11 £c. Corn —Sales have been made at 50 cents per bushel. Flout ' —Sales $4 to $4 50. MOBILE, July 21.— Collon.— Received during the week 214 bales, and there have been export ed 7266—leaving a stock on hand and on shipboard not. cleared last evening 52,693 bales, against 27.031 same time last year. Our last review left the market quiet though very firm, with a disposition on the part of holders to advance their rates—middling quoted at 10 cts. In the first three days of our commercial week a fair business was done, the sales reaching about 2500 bales. Since then only some 700 bales have changed hands. The market closes with much firmness, holders in no instance pressing their stocks, and buyers evincing very little inclination, | to operate, both parties waiting later foreign ad vices, which are now about due by express? Nor can we expect that much will be done until they are received and digested. The transactions of the week foot up 3200 bales:—6oo on Saturday 1000 Monday, 900 Tuesday, 300 Wednesday, 100 Thursday, and 300 Friday. We continue last week’s quotations, remarking that some few lots of the lower grades have been sold lower than our figures. LIVERPOOL CLASSIFICATION. (rood and fine .nominal, • Good fair nominal.

The ships on the berth have fil- 1 led at the last rates, say sd, for Liverpool and hjc. for Havre. Coastwise, a ship taken for New York at Jc., and a schooner for Richmond at Ic. We have had some accession to our tonnage, and the rates to ail ports not so firm as this day week. NEW ORLEANS, July 24.- Cotton.— Arrived since the 16fh instant, 800 bales. Cleared in the | same time 18,716 bales—making a reduction in stock ol 1 t .93 / bales, and leaving on hand, inclusive of all on ship board not cleared on the 23d instant a stock of 90,596 bales. At the date of our last report the Cotton market had been brought almost to a complete stand by the scarcity of vessels, which precluded the possi bility of effecting freight engagements. This im pediment to business continued in force during sev- 1 eral days of the early part of the week, and the 1 transactions of Saturday' did not exceed 1800 bales. ! in which was included a list of about 1500 bales North Aiabamas. On Monday and Tuesday the i market was wholly inactive, scarcely 300 hales having been disposed of during the two days; and although since then the facilities for effecting ship ments have been materially increased by the ar rival of a number of sea vessels, the market has not yet assumed any considerable activity. On Wed nesday the sales were 2000 bales, on Thursday 1000 and yesterday 1500; making a total for the'week of 6600 bales, taken mostly for England and the ! Continent, with a few parcels for tiie North. There ! appear to be but few buyers disposed to operate, I and the proximity of the Britannia’s accounts, ! which may be considered due here to-morrow or next day, disinclines parties to enter into new trans actions until further advised of the position of the European markets. As regards prices, they have undergone no material change for Louisiana* and which are comparatively scarce, and ■ therefore well sustained at our last week’s figures; I but for North Aiabamas and Tennessees, which compose the great bulk of the stock, holders have j , had to yield slightly from their asking rates for the ; few round lists that have been taken. Our figures ; fer these, therefore, which as we stated, were pre- j Viously nominal, have been reduced, NEW ORLEANS CLASSIFICATION (Assimilating to that of Liverpool.)
