Georgia Historic Newspapers

    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.

REMARKS. —The number of strangers in our city
during the past week gave a lively trade both to the
wholesale and retail dealers, and presented quite a
lively appearance to our streets.
GRAIN.— Corn continues scarce and would readi
ly command 62} cts. Tiie receipts for the past week
have been very moderate.
BACON.—There has been some improvement in
the article from the moderate receipts. The stock
on hand is good. Sales continue to be made at 5$ cts
hog round, on short time; a choice lot was disposed of
in small parcels at 6 cts.

fered at $7 per bbl., and large quantities are on the
way which will further depress prices.

and Rope; about 700 bales Gunny Bagging have
been already bought for this market. Prices not ye t
