crease, now amounting to 783,533 bales, against J 403,635 bales at same date last year—being an ex cess of 389,893 bales over last year, and as the stocks in Augusta, Macon and Columbia are comparatively light, it is not thought that the receipts of those ports will exceed 850,000 bales which will make the total of the crop vary very little from 2,650,000 bales. In these views we are confirmed by a comparative state ment of the stock at the interior towns of Alabama, Georgia and Carolina, which will be seen by our tables only amount to 71,829 bales against 156,905 bales at same date last year. The foreign exports continue heavy and are not confined to Great Britain as will be seen by the num ber of vessels now loading in the Cotton ports for Prance, being 15 against 5 at same date last year. The exports to Prance are now only 2,433 bales short of last year, and will no doubt, from the fact above stated, exceed them in our next statement. The ex ports to Great Britain show an excess of 336,489 bales being 1,243,990 against 907,501 bales at same time last year. The exports to the North have been very large yet the stock in New York, it will be seen, is very little larger than it was last year at same dates, as the shipment# are now light it will not be much in creased. The accounts received by the Canada give encour aging hopes of a settlement of the Danish question and of the disturbances generally on the Continent of Eu rope, Should these difficulties be settled we may look for a renewal of activity in the Cotton market and a very considerable improvement in prices, as it will be seen by an examination of the tables which we have published, that the stock in Great Britain is not large and should there be an increased con sumption would be reduced very low ere they will receive any thing from this country from the present growing crop, which must be very late, owing to the very unpropitious Spring we have had, the truth of which is confirmed by every day’s information we receive on the subject.
