Com mere ia I. I.ATKST PATKS FROM I.IVKKPOOI OCT. 1 I.ATKST HATKS FROM HAVR.I OfT. 1 Augusta Market* Nov. 3. COTTON.—We have another dull and declinin'! mar ket to report this week. The Cotton market appears to t»e in such a state that both buyers and sellers are at fault, Hie former having little or no confidence in the article, and the latter being reluctant sellers at present prices, disposing of only such lots as they have positive orders to sell. The receipts this week, wc think have fallen off, and much of that now coming to lieu I is scut to waiehouses for storage. The quality of this year’s crop is very good, little if aijy of it ranging under Good Middling, white the greater portion will range as Fair. What is termed this year good fair or choice, is difficult to settle on, so little difference has there been in the higher grades of Cotton received in this market solar this season. A lot of what is termed choice, (say 5) hales) if put on the market, would no doubt readily bring 1\ cents —but buyers being compelled to pick it up in small parcels, refused to pay, yesterday, over7| fur the best lots offered. The sales this week (since 27th ult.) r.'ach only about 1003 bales, viz : On the 27th, 393, 12 at 7, 45 at 7J, 22 at 7J, 59 at 7j, 50 at 7 11-10, 66 at 7J, 58 at ! 7J, 84 at 8. On the 28th, 458 hales, 88 at 7, 28 at 7}, 12 at 7j,4oat 7|, 48at7|, 182 at 7J, 27 at 7J, and 23 at 8. On the 29th, 228 hides, 15 at 7, 31 at 7s, 14 at 7.|, 24 at 7J, 93 at 7J, 6at 7 13-10, and 43 at 8. On the 30th, there was little or no demand and prices still further gave way, the sales reaching only 179 bales, 7 at 7J, 141 old, ! in one lot, at 7J, 14 at TJ, and 17 at On the Ist, still a limited business, sales reaching only 121 bales, 9 at 7, Bat 7J, 17at 7ft, 11 at 7ft; 9at 7j|, and 67 at 7£. Yestcr- - day there was a little more enquiry, and the sales reach ed 208 bales, but without any change in prices, 17 at 7, 21 at 7J, 42 at 7ft, 20 at Tg, 88 at 74, and 20 at cents. By the above sales, it will be seen that our market has fur ther declined this week full 4 cent on all qualities, and wc alter our quotations to conform. All parties are anxi ously looking for the French steamer’s advices to 10th nit. which are past due, and nntil they aie received, we look for but a limited business to be transacted. % QUOTATIONS.
