Lamp Store,” No. 131 Broad street. His
mind was greatly relieved, however, when
lie discovered that it was only the name
“Lamp Man,” and not the lamp man him
self suspended. We fear that he is only
making light of friend Farrs’ red lamp, as
he might have seen that at first; for Fair
never suspend*. He will keep good oils,
good lamps, and the first thing tho public
knows he will be keeping some other good
things. Some of his neighbors and custom
ers sing the popular air, “Thou art so near,
and yet so Farr,” but not too far for every
body who tries his oils aud lamps always
find him near enough to go back again.
Those who have not tried them should give
him a call at once. +

Securities usually offered in this market.

COTTON - .
Our last Meekly Report, of Thursday evening,
May 31. closed on a dull market. During the past
week tlie market has been very unsettled, owing
principally to a scarcity of money and lack of confi
dence. Buyers arc uotuillingto pay holders’ prices,
thus causing a stand od between the two parties.
Offering stock during the past week has been very
light We close our report on a depressed aim
quiet market at entirely nominal quotations, to
wit:
Middling 30 a
Strict Middling 51 a ..
Good Middling 32 a
Middling Fair g 8 a 34
We quote the following from the Weekly Cotton
Circular of William Bryce A Cos., dated New York,
Friday Evening, June Ist, ISfifi:
Since' our last Circular was issued, bearing date
of the 25th lilt., the steamer .Persia has arrived
with Liverpool news to the 19th of May. The re
ported the week differs in no particular from what
was anticipated: the panic was subsiding, although
the Bank rate remained 10 per cent.: no use, how
ever, had been made of the extraordinary powers
granted, mem ion of which was made in our last
( ircular. War had not y» t. broken out, although
the probability of Hint event amounted almost to a
certainty; impetuous Italy seeming most anxious
for the strife, while France seemed coolly contem
plating the situation fill the moment arrived when
a movement on her part would most materially
advance her interests The Liverpool Cotton Mar
ket had been fairly active, although prices remain
ed steady at the quotations of the previous week.
The sales footed up 00,000 bales, 2fi.000 being
American. The greater part was taken by tile
trade, comparatively little going to speculators or
exporters. Hie receipts for tho week had been
very heavy, amounting to 178.000 bales, 77,000
being American. The stock on hand had thus
increased, and now amounts to almost 1,000,090 of
bales, nearly one half of which is American. The
■ decrease of Bullion in the Bank, for the week,
amounted to £832,335, and although the panic was
subsiding, it. seems to have laid a heavy hand on
every circle of the commercial community. The
Africa had arrived on the date of the Persia’s sail
ing, but too late to influence the market. She had
on board $3,590,000 in specie, and brought news of
an advance in our markets, in lace of a decline in
Liverpool, and of greatly diminished receipts at
our ports. These advices probably created consid
erable excitement, and it is by no means improba
ble an advance was provoked in spite of their heavy
stock. The effect of such an advance would no
doubt be to raise quotations in our market, although
we are even now two and a half pence sterling
above Liverpool.
Our own market has been a dull one for tlie week,
the usual reaction occurring which always follows
a speculative fever as raged last week. Holders,
however, are firm in their views, and to purchase
any considerable line of Cotton an advance would
have to be paid on our quotations. The present
condition of the American Cotton Markets is most
peculiar, and considerations of the subject should
be based on broader grounds than ordinarily. The
enormous stock in Liverpool will prevent export in
that direction for some time to conic, and our own
stock is in excess of immediate home consumption.
We have no fear of any serious decline here; the
mere rise and fall of speculative waves have little
or no connection with the movement of that great
tide, the beginning of whose rise is now felt here,
and which must act on Liverpool in spite of panics
and present superabundant stock.
