A decline bus been estab lished, which may be written ar fully f 2 o i all American Cottons,and s* verui lots, deliverable in January and February, have even been sold . r. f 3 under liie previous rates. Havre, Dec. 15. Co'tnns. —From the down ward tendency exhibited in’our market at the date of our previous rejior:, vve were far from antici pating the complete reaction that has since taken place, f'ir although the advices from the 1 nitetl .Slates Drought by the steamer of the IC:h all. had been favorably interpreted in Liverpool, and cre ated a speculative feeling there, a contrary ed'-ct was pr duet-d here, and prices experienced a con ridem; ddine. Within the past, week, how ever, th.ny a .ve assumed quite a difierent aspect, for the accounts daily received from (he <>lh<*r-ide of the. channel have borne (be slump of such great activity and improvement in business, as could not fail to excite buyers to come forward. The demand has therefore been characieried by a con siderable degree of animation, which has been gradually increasing, and lias led to an advance of f7 to I*3on ail American Co:tons. But although the transactions have been vety extensive, our stock has nut been materially reduced, speculators having been the principal operators, and directed their attention chiefly to cargoes for delivery. Havre, Dec. 23 — Cotton. —Up to the ciose of lasi week,our market was characterised by con siderable activity in the transactions, but mdre es pecially on Wednesday, when I lit*, accounts re- j reived from Liverpool gave an extraordinary im- : pulse to speculation, and 7UJ?) bales Cotton filing- i ed hands. The sales were chiefly in cargoes to ai- I rive, and deliverable up to the end of next .March, and such was the spirit displayed in the buying, i that prices rapidly advanced 15. on our proceeding ; quotations. Since the commencement of this week, ; however, the demand lias become very restricted, I the intelligence from England, where symptoms of j a reaction had begun to manifest themselves, has I created a. corresponding effect here, and after the : considerable operations that have taken place, this might have been anticipated. After a long lapse of time, our stock, which was reduced to 7000 hales, re. eived an accession by the successive im ports within tiie last two days, pari of which had been sold previous to arrival, and is now in the hands* of speculators. “Havre, Dec. 31. Cotton. —From the favor- : able tenor of ihe advices of 4th instant, brought by ; the New York packet ship Baltimore, a revival in j I lie transactions would probably have occurred; hut owing to the dull character of the accounts from Liv< rpool,onr market up to the ciose of the past week was very depressed, and prices under went a decline of 2 to 3;' on previous quotations Since the opening of the pres-nt week, however, buyers iiave come forward with less reluctance, the demand lias become more and more animated, and yesterday, ow ing to the intelligence from the otn er side of the channel, a fresh impulse was given to Ihe market, large transactions took place, and prices advanced 2 to 3f thus recovering the ground Xiioy i ad previously lost.

The receipts at this port tiiis season, reach 149332 bales, against 71*83 at tin* same time last year. This week, the sales have been small, owing partly to the stock in the market being light, and both purchasers and sellers anxiously looking for the steamer’s accounts,.

Cotton.— Our re port oftho 23d inst., left the market in a very firm, although at the same time comparatively quiet state owing to the position which holders had assumed illative to prices. On Saturday last the sales were confined to some 1000 hales, cud the quotations of that morning were lullv | sustained. Monday was :« quiet day, as the sales did not reach 700 bales, hut lot mer prices were j fully sustained; on Tuesday, however, a good i enquiry prevailed, and during the day upwards of 2800 bales were sold, an 1 as it was generally I believed at the outside prices of Saturday. On Wednesday about 10(10 hales wore taken at the current rates of the preceding day. The tele graphic accounts per the steamer Hi hern a were received on Thursday, but dealers seemed dis posed to wait the full development of these ad vices, and tho sales were consequently limited to 800 hales, at the advance of Jc pi r lb. Yester day the private advices came through, and short ly after the delivery of the letters, an active de mand sprung up, whic h resulted in the sale du ring the day of fully *IOOO bales, at an advance variously estimated from i to Jc. above the prices current at the opening of the week; so unsettled, however, was the market at the close of business that we found it .mpossible to givequotalions, and would therefore relcr to actual sales. The re ceipts during the week comprise 12.800 bales, and the pales in the same time reach 10,700 bales. a» the following prices;—9 bales at 9i; 12 at 95; 239 at 10; 89 at lOj: 86 at 10 3-16; 491 at 10J; 137 at lOg; 1231 at 10J; 116 at 10 9-16; 1017 at 10|; 141 at 10 11-16; 902 at 10|; 63 at 10 13-16; G 59 at 10j, 1034 at 11; 4*44 at 111; 833 at 11’; 20 at il|; 768 at lit*, 605 at Ilf; 13 at 111; and 1184 bales at 12. It will be seen on reference to i our table, that there is an excess of over 46.000 bags, as compared with the receipts of the pre vious year. The market for L.mg Colton has ; been verv quiet since our List. About 100 bags .Santee have been sold at prices ranging from 29 to 33c., and a few small lots Ecc. island ut former prices.
