Augusta Market, March 10.
COTTON. —Since our last review we have had
a better demand for Cotton in this market, and
the small quantify offering has met with ready
purchasers at prices all of |c. advance on these
paid last week. This stale of things has been
brought about by the light receipts at this place,
and favorable advices received from the Northern
markets. But even at this advance, the quantity
of Cotton offering is quite limited, holders show
ing no disposition to press their stocks at the pre
sent time, but seem disposed to await the accounts
per steamer of the 4th inst. The receipts at this
point have been very light, reaching only about
1,200 bales this week, against 1,700 during the
same week last year. The receipts at all the ports
up to the latest dates received.are 1,330,200 bales,
against 1,315,525 last year, showing an excess in
the receipts this year of only 20,605 bales, which
is 11,880 bales less than at the time of making up
our last weekly review. The sales during the past
week sura up 1595 bales which were disposed of as
follows; 15 at 9,55 at 93, 11 at 9|, 222 at 91,11 at 91 f
79 a191,17 at 9 13-10,57 al9J,4Boat 10,45 at 10 1-16,
90 al 191, 317 at 101, 111 al 103, and 76 at 104 cts.
The hulk of the offering stock may be classed mid
dling to middling fair—qualities above this being
withheld from the market. VV e again omit quota
tions, but would remark that yesterday middling
fair Colton, in square bales, would readily bring
10$, fair ]oi and |1 cents was offered and refused
for a small lul of good fair, and that even at these
prices but a smujl quantity of Cotton could be pur
chased i|i this market.

GROCERIES —Our Grocery market remains
much in the same situation as last noticed; our
planters being busily engaged in preparing for the
next crop, keeps many orders from the market. But
w bile our planters are thus engaged, the merchants
of this city are not idle; many of them are north
purchasing their spring supplies and boats are
daily arriving with new and fresh goods for the
spring trade. Country merchants who have here*
tofore been in the habit of dealing in this city, we
think will not be disappointed with the stea ks of
our merchants this season, nor w ith the sac ilities
that will he afforded them in purchasing in this
market.

made recently to our sloc k of sugars, particularly
New Orleans, with which the market is fairly sup

3,500 bushels loose have been reported to us at 32

APALACHICOLA, March 2.—ln the first nnm
4>erof our Letter Siieet Price Current tlus se ison,
we remarked that,9the receipts at ibis port are gen
erally estimated at 120 to 139,090 bales, and oilier
Florida Ports, about 25,000 hales/’ AN e are now
satisfied from fams which have recently come to
our knowledge, that that estimate was too high,
and consider it now a settled question that our re
ceipts will not exceed those of last year, say 110 to
112.000 bales. Other Florida Ports will receive
less than last year, and w e think 135 to 140,000
bales a full estimate for Florida. For the week
ending Feb. 27, the receipts at Columbus were only
380 hales, against 1,256 bales corresponding week
last year.
Cotton. —The receipts d iring the past week a
mount to 2,846 bales, and the txports to 4,226,
leaving the stock on hand, including all on ship
board not cleared 41 ,C 16 bales, against 25,253 bales,
tame time last year.
On 1 uesday the sales were limited to three or
four small tots, amounting in the aggregate to on'y
293 bales. \\ eduesday the demand was not ma
terially increased, the transactions of the day being
confined to 391 hales. Thursday, Friday and Sat
urday the market remained in a very quiet state,
about 490 bales each day changing hands. The
1 Cambria’s accounts reached us on Sunday, but the
: circulars and letters not coming to hand, there
j was no disposition to operate yesterday, only one
j h't of 68 bales having been disposed of al about
i old prices. The sales of the week amount to 1,974
bales. We make no change in our quotations,
I they being as near the actual sales as ills possible
i to quote.

Norristown, Pa., Jin. 10, 1815. Mr. Slrib- i
ling, from the Matteawan Company, New York,
has just finished putting in operation for me ten
of Smith’s Self-Acting Mules, for spinning twist
and filling, which operate to our entire satisfac
tion. Samuel Jamison.
Great Falls Mills, April 25, 1815. — Wm. B.
Leonard, Esq.—Dear Sir—This Company have
had in operation of Self-Acting Mules Sharp’s,
Roberts & Co’s. Mason's and Smith’s. The two
former for inure than two years, and the latter for
upwards of one year last past. 1 have kept an
accurate account of the pr- duct, waste and cost
of operating each description of Mule, and the
result is decidedly in favor of Smith’s.
1 have no hesitation in saying the Smith’s j
Mule will turn off more work per spindle than 1
any other now in use; that it requires less trouble ;
to keep it in order, and may be kept in repair at
less expense. Yours, respectfully,
J. A. Burleigh,
