MOBILE, March 16th.— Cotton • —The prevalent good feeling noticed as existent i n our market on Fri day last, continued on Saturday, when some 2000 bales changed hands at full prices. Since then, how ever, all activity has ceased, the sales only amounting yesterday to 500, and to-day to 200 bales. For two successive days we had no mails from the East, which fact, together with the high claims of holders, has brought the market to a pause. We continue last Friday s quotations, though holders are not generally free sellers at these figures—say 10J a lOjc. for mid dlings. Tlie receipts of the last seven days have been 1 4d3 bales, exports 6611 bales, leaving a stock on hand of 165,156 bales. In freights of cotton there has been no change since our last semi-weekly report. British vessels are tak ing at fd for cotton, and Indian corn at 21dper bush el of 60 lbs., which is a slight reduction on the latter. Freights generally dull. Exchanges have been rather dull the last two days. Foreign bills are noninal at 2 a 3 per cent premium for sterling, and 555 for francs. Domestic bills to day, and yesterday to some extent, improved a little, and we quote 60 days and sight on Northern cities at 2a 24 and 4a 1 per cent discount. Alabama money is also a shade better, being J a 1 P er cent discount. CHARLESTON, March 20. Cotton— We stated in our report of the 13th inst. that prices for several successive days had been gradually stiffening, until a decided advance was established ; and added that we had changed our quotations to correspond with this state of things; since that time we have no material change to notice in the general featuresof the market. On Saturday last a moderate amount of business w r as done, as the sales reached some 1400 bales; and the prices current at the close of the previous week were fully sustained. On Monday a good inq dry prevail ed, and 3000 bales changed hands, a large portion of which was taken for Northern or manufacturer’s ac count ; on Tuesday, however, the demand fell off, as the transactions were confined to 1000 bales Prices during these two days were very full, particularly for the better classifications. The operations of Wednes day and Thursday were confined almost exclusively to the lower grades, and reached on the former 1300, and on the latter day 800 hales. Yesterday was a very quiet day, as only 500 bales were sold. The market towards the close of the week was somewhat depressed, but we have no decided change to record in prices, and would refer to our quotations, as given in our publication of the 13th inst., for a fair criterion of the prevailing rates at the close of business. The re ceipts of the week comprise 7603 bales, and the aggre gate sales in the same lime reach 8100 bales, as fol lows, viz:—47 bales at 9f, 66 at 10, 128 at 10J, 503 at 10j, 48 at 10 5-16, 413 at 10J, 63 at 10 7-16, 1354 at 10i, 160 at 10|, 1027 at 101, 141 at 10j, 2052 at 11, 525 at 11 J, 1003 at 11 j, 135 at Ilf, 609 at 11 J, and a few bags at 12c. There has been a more general de mand for long staple Cotton during the week. Com mon to middling Sea Islands have sold from 24 to 30c ; and Maines to rather fine Sea Islands from 32 to 35c.

The transactions during the week have been confined to some 1400 les, at extremes ranging from 3f to s4f per hundred, but by far the larger portion of the sales were made at prices ranging from 3f to s4f per hundred. Flour —There has been a moderate demand for{(his article since our last, both for export and for city con sumption, and upwards of 1400 barrels of various de scriptions have been sold. About 1000 barrels of Bal timore, Richmond, and Western brands, from S 6 to ; mostly, however, at s6f per barrel; and 400 barrels Country Flour from 5£ to $6 per bbl. Grain Large quantities of Corn continue to reach our market, and owing to the heavy receipts, the ac cumulation of the stock, and we might add, the com paratively limited demand for the article, prices con tinue to recede. There have been received this week near 15,000 bushels from North Carolina, only a por tion of which was sold. Our quotations for this de scription, viz : 70 a 75c will give a fair criterion of the market, but we would remark that a cargo of superior quality was sold at a price above our outside figure. The receipts by the rail road reach 17,000 bushels, a part of which has been disposed of at prices ranging from 75 to 81 jc per bushels, including bags. An ac cession of fully 1000 bales of North River Hay, since our last, which has materially affected prices. A portion, say between 300 and 400 bundles, have been sold from 105 to 95c, which is a reduction of 10 a 20c on former transactions. Salt —The receipts of the week comprise 5000 sacks, 3000 of which were sold at 93c per sack, cash. Small lots command 95 a 100 c per sack. Huron and Eard —The market for both articles is at a stand. We have no transactions to report. Sugars —The heavy importations of the previous week, have most effectually unsettled the market and also brought down prices; there is, however, some difference of opinion among dealers as to the extent of the reduction, some estimating the decline on the better qualities from the highest point at £c w hile others place it at |c ; all admit, however, that the low er grades are full 1c low r er. We subjoin the opera tions of the week. At auction about 200 hhds Louis iana description were taken at prices ruling from 7\ to 74c; 41 hhds Muscovados, of the “El Destino” brand, at 8J ; and 31 hhds Muscovados, of common quality, from 7$ to 7£c. 30 boxes new crop white Sugar brought 8 13-16 to 8 14-16; subsequently 200 hhds of various qualities of Muscovados have been taken by the trade at extremes ruling from 6$ a BJc as in quality, the bulk however was sold at prices ranging from 6j to 7£c. Coffee —A cargo of Rio, consisting of 2475 bags and 53 casks, was sold at auction on Tuesday last, at prices ranging from 8 to Bfc, averaging B|c; a few small lots Cuba have since been sold at Bc. Molasses —Prices have also declined, owing to the heavy receipts of the previous week. Some 40 hhds Cienfuegos w ere offered at auction on Tuesday last, a few hhds of which were knocked down at 24c per gal lon, w-hen the sale was stopped. Prior to the auction sale, 40tcs and 80 bbls Muscovados, represented as su perior, were taken by private contract at 30c, and 130 hhds and 20 tierces Cuba at 20c per gallon. Bagging —Upwards of 500 pieces Kentucky Bag ging have been sold since our last, at prices ranging from 12 to 13c, Rope —We note several sales, amounting in all to about 500 pieces Kentucky Rope, at from 5 to 6c. Exchange. —ln sterling bills and Francs, no sales. Checks on the North par. Freights. —We have no change to notice either to Liverpool or Havre, but w-ould remark that there is very little offering.

THE MARRIED WOMAN’S PRIVATE I MEDICAL COMPANION. Embracing the Treatment of Men struation, Ac.; Management of Acconchment; i j Treatment of Miscarriage, &c. By A. M. Machi j ceau, Professor of Diseases of Women. Just pub- | I lished—price sl. The important secrets here contained, though of a nature strictly intended for the married, yet to those i contemplating marriage it is equally important. To the married female of delicate or nervous tem perament, of great debility, whose health imperative y forbids of an increase of family beyond the capacity of her strength, it is of the utmost consequence to her self, to her children, and her husband, that she should avail herself of the great French discovery she will here find. It is always important to the married female to be enabled to determine her situation, to prevent that per- ■ plexity and anxiety of mind, arising from uncertainty ; or doubt, which often leads to serious consequences. The signs, symptoms, &c., therefore, are so clearly in dicated as to leave but little room for doubt, with the proper mode of treatment, subsequently. To the married unblessed with children, some facts are presented, explanatory of the causes, mode of treat ment, &c., which are conclusive, that in most cases, the causes are removable, and that those who have followed the advice herein contained have realized their hopes. To the female afflicted with the various complaints arising from a stoppage, irregularity, decline, or reten tion of the Menses, it is invaluable, as containing the causes, symptoms, and the most certain remedies for the removal of her complaints. The limits of an advertisement, and the nature of the subject, make it impracticable of presenting more fully what is treated of, being strictly a private “MEDICAL COMPANION,” especially intended “ FOR THE MARRIED, or THOSE ABOUT TO BE MARRIED.” Price, sl.

They will furnish, also, all other kinds of Machine ery used in Factories, including the SELF-OPERATING MULE, first introduced into this country by the Matteawan Company, which is a great labor-saving Machine, as will appear by the following: Butternuts, Sept. 4th, 1843. —Our Self-Operating Mules operate to our entire satisfaction, producing yarn of a superior quality, and an increased quantity over the Hand Mules, and at a far less cost, not ex ceeding five cents per hundred. It is now about two years since they were put in operation, and I do not know that they have ever been detained for half an hour for repairs. In haste, yours truly, &c., A. G. Washbon, Agent. Manayunk, Jan. 13 th, 1845. —Mr. Richard Strib ling, of the Matteawan Company, has put in opera tion in my establishment eight of Smith’s Self-Acting Mules, seven of 432 spindles, and one of 312 spindles. Thev perform to the greatest satisfaction, and the Mule itself is considered by all practical men as the best of the kind in the country. Joseph Ripka. Norristown, Pa., Jan. 10, 1845.—Mr Stribling, from the Matteawan Company, New York, has just finished putting in operation for me ten of Smith’s Self-Acting Mules, for spinning twist and filling, which operate to our entire satisfaction. Samuel Jamison. Great Falls Mills, April 23, 1845. —Wm, B. Leonard, Esq: Dear Sir—This Company have had in operation of Self-Acting Mules—Sharp’s, Roberts & Co.’s, Mason’s, and Smith’s. The two former for more than two years, and the latter for upward of one year last past. I have kept an accurate account of the product, waste and cost of operating each descrip tion of Mule, and the result is decidedly in favor of Smith’s. I have no hesitation in saying the Smith Mule will turn off more work per spindle than any other now in use; that it requires less trouble to keep it in order, and may be kept in repair at less expense.

Caution.—ln setting forth the virtues of Dr. Wistar’s Balsam, we have no desire to deceive those who are laboring under affliction, nor do we wish to eulogize it more than it justly deserves. Yet when we look around and see the vast amount of suffering and distress occasioned by many of the diseases in which this medicine has proved so highly successful, we feel that we cannot urge its claims too strongly, or say too much in its favor. Let the public be on their guard. Other “ Bal sams” and mixtures are sometimes imposed on the un suspecting for the genuine Dr. Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry. Some, for the purpose of succeeding better in their schemes, have used a part of the name of the genuine, as “ Phoenix Balsam of Wild Cherry,” “Balsam of Wild Cherry, Corafrey,” &c., “Syrup of Wild Cherry.” None genuine unless signed I.
