I In* trail actions for the past week, both in the receipts an i sales of cotton, have been tlie largest of the season. Our last review closed on a very firm market with »,n upward tendency in prices. 'The next morning (Saturday) hovers came lively forward, and during the flay some 4000 bales changed hands, at very full prices, improving somewhat on our outside figures of last week.— Advancing freights and a slight decline in ex change, however, brought buyers to a pause on Monday, and only SJO hales were disposed of. holders in iniainitig their positions vviih much firmness On Tuesday the market was remarka bly (piiei, and some symptoms of a dispushioii on the part of factors to relax a little was exhibited, hi.l >nly 700 bales were disposed of. The same, h alures < h iracterizeil the market of Wednesday ; tlie views of faciors still ranging above those ol the. opposite p irty. and the sales of the day summ ed up ouiv r 1.1) 10 hales. 'The siMu of "the man with the carpet hag,” on the Eastern mail boat on Thursday morning, indicated tlie arrival ot the ( ambria’s accounts by private express, and the movements of brokers in the course of tb£day continued tlie impression. The demand became general and although prices advanced during the ■day fully «c. the transaciioiis amounted to 6,Out) ■bales, middling cottons bringing 94c. and middling l iar fully 10c.—while in some instances even high er rates than these were paid, an i the day closed on unite an excited market. Friday’s mail brought a slip from the office of the Baltimore Sun, con taining an outline of the Cambria’s advices upon which th>'operations of Thursday* were based, but it being Christmas day only some 1.0)0 hales were sold at st;II improving rates. The sales of the week exceed 13.000 bales. On Saturday the full accou its by tlie Cambria came to hand. The business of -Saturday amounted to 1.000 hales. In reference to quotations*, and vviih the explanations above given, vve confine ourselves to the rales ac tually paid on Saturday, remarking that prices are unsettled and irregular and llic market a good deal excited. Although we give an advance since our last report of fully 4e on all the descr ptions of cotton, the demand has been principally confin ed to middling fair and the qualities below that grade.
