latest dates FROM Havre, 23.
CHER AW, May 25.— Cotton —Our receipts
have been very light during the past week, not
amounting to more than *2OO hales. Sales since
tlie steamer s accounts, have been mostly at 10J
to Ilf.
COLUMBIA, May 2li.— Co«<m.— The recent
adv ices from Europe have caused a tunher de
cline in the Cotton market. There is at present
v* ry little doing— supplies fight and sales dull.
We quote as extremes !H all cents.
CHARLESTON.May 27.— Cotton.— The Up
land market yesterday nearly eanae to a complete
stand. The sales amounted to only 47 hales, of
which 30 bales at Hi, and 17 bales, a fancy lot, at
12 cents.
Hire. —The Rice market also was heavy and
wabout buyers at the high rates still asked by hold
ers. Sales only about. Tobbls at
MACON, May 25.— Cotton. — I There is scarcely
any thing doing in Colton here at present. 1 lie
quantity ottering since the receipt of the last steam
er’s accounts, which was unfavorable, has hardly
been sufficient to establish pri.es. We omit our
figures until we know what to make them. The
following is the weekly receipts :
Received at Warehouses, ]G3
3lacon A; Western Rail Road, 13
176
COLUMBUS, 3lay 25.—There is hut little do
ing in the Colton market, and to all appearances
the business of the season is about drawing to a
dose. In our last account we noticed a decline
from Ia 1 cent. Since then there has been few
operations, and the steamers accounts received
here on Saturday, showing a decline of 1 a 4Jnt»
had a further tendency to depress I lie market. The
market is so unsettled that we omit quotations.
NEW ORLEANS, May 22. Cotton.--A\-
rived since tiie 18th instant. 3379 bales. Cleared
in the same time 4804 bales—making a reduction
in stock of 1425 bales, and leaving on band, in
clusive of all on shipboard not cleared on the 21st
instant, a stock of 193,160 bales.
Our last report left the Cotton market at a
complete stand, not a single sale having occurred
on Tuesday; nor scarcely any, indeed, for three
days previous; and so entirely unsettled and par
alyzed was the market that we felt constrained to
omit quotations in two successive publications
a circumstance having no precedent within our
recollection. As we have already explained, this
state ofthings was mainly produced by the dis
appointment resulting from the less favorable
tenor of the private advices by the Caledonia,
coupled with a sudden pressure in the money
market, which checked speculative movements,
and caused buyers generally to retire, or to reduce
their offers so low that holders were unwilling to
meet them. On Wednesday there was little or
nothing done, only some two or three lots,amount
ing to about 500 bales, having been disposed 01,
at irregular prices, but decidedly in favor ol buy
ers. On Thursday, the pressure continuing,
• -m- —■—»" nr*mmmnm»• -rw immrs*. inuuniwa
an i very few buyers manifesting a disposition to !
enter the market at all, holders were compelled to ■
#ve_ way still further, and about 1500 bales
changed hands, the greater part in one list, at
rates establishing a decline ut tuliy J a cent from
the extreme prices paid on 1 hursday and Friday
previous, under the speculative excitement pro
duced by the telegraphic summary of the Caledo
nia’s advices, and [ cent below the rates which
vv< re current before receipt of the said summary.
Vesterdav there appeared to tie a little more en
quiry, but we could only learn ol sales ot about
hOOvi bales, at toe decline above stated, which has
taken effect more particularly on the Middling
qualities, and we have ventured to arrange a scale
us quotations which will repre.-ent us accurately
as circumstances will permit tiie present position •
of the market. The total sab’s ot the week sum !
up only 5400 bales, of which 5100 bales were dis
used of within the post three days taken princi- |
pally for England and the North.
