From thf. Weekly Cotton Circular
of Messrs. William Bryce A Cos., New York,
dated June 2Dth, ISfifi, wo make the follow
ing extracts:
Since our lost Circular, date 1 22d instant,
was team'd, we have received Liverpool ud
vices to *he 16th Inst, by steamer Java, oue
week later than the lust report we reviewed.
The business for the week has been fair,
and the sales footed up 72,000 hales, o»
which American formed more than a third
part. The trade took 57,000 bales, 10.000
were exported, the balance going to specu
lators. The receipts had been heavy,
amounting to 114,000 bales, 61,000 of which
were American. The stock had increased.
Quotations were the same ns we last week
leportod : 14- a 14$d. for Middling Upland
to Orleans. The accounts from Manchester
indicated an increased business in the man
ufacturing districts, and notwithstanding
the apprehensions of immediate hostilities
upon the Continent, prices were firmly
maintained. Sea Islands had been in fair
request at unchanged rates, say 20 a 70
pence for inferior to fine
Our own market fur the week has been
very quiet, the views of buyers and sellers
being divergent. Although offerings have
been abundant, but few lots have boon
pressed for sale; the stock, for the most
part, being in very strong hands, who are
hopeful of better prices. Tho amount of
Orleans lor sale has been greater than usual,
and iu accustomed request; a small lot
grading “fair to fine” sold on Thursday for
50e. The market for cotton goods has been
quiet, spinners seeming inclined to wait and
see the course of cotton toward Fall before
purchasing raw material or contracting for
their goods.
Our Southern advices this week aro of a
varied character, the weather had been ex
ceedingly propitious, and what had been
saved were doing well, although the per
centage ftf injury by the May rains and
June gram is estimated higher than we sup
posed. The army worm had madc-ii-s ap
pearance in Western Texas, and in some
localities was doing much injury. As we
mentioned in «>ur last Circular, the Senate
amended, by reducing to two cents the pro
posed five cent tax on cottou as reported by
the Lower House. The amendment by the
Senate is now under discussion in the
House, and every effort will be made to pass
the original Bill: the probabilities are that
a compromise will be effected, and a tax of
three cents imposed. We would advise all
of our friends to hasten the payment of the
present tax on all cotton on hand, as the
tax will probably go into operation on the
lfiih July. Every effort, however, is being
made to prevent an increase of tho tax by
the friends of the doctrine of protection to
home industry at the South.
Provided for. —Josh Hill has got a
pretty good position at Savannah. Ex-
Provisional Governor Johnson has got an
unimportant Foreign Mission, but it will
suffice to givo him an excuse to leave his
old Columbus home, where he was once re
spected, but where he could not now even
respect himself. If Uncle Sandy could
hare just a small flan-pot somewhere, and
a very few other so called Georgians could
get a few crumbs, tho great “loyal” party of
Georgia ought to bo satisfied. Let justice
be done to the “ batriot They surely
should be amply rewarded for the odium
that has been heaped upon them on account
of their great and conscientious (?) devo
tion to the Star Spangled ! —Griffin Star.
