(iluomtlr & itntintl. WKDJfBSDAI MOBXI>6, APRIL fi. /'Vom If. C. Watti <f- Oo.'s Market Deport. Liverpool Cotton Market. LdVIRPoOL, March 18,1870. Cotton.— ln our issue of 4th instant wc reported a small week's business (sales 48,100), and this week the transaction has been still further curtailed, sales re ported at 46,320 bales, including 38,440 taken by the trade, 6,358 for export, and 2,980 on speculation. Prices during the week have again been irregular and in fa vor of buyers, closing this evening at our quotations as given above, showmg a de cline of Jd in the medium and id in the lower grade-i of American, and id to id in other descriptions. In Cotton to ariive we have again to re port: a large week’s business, particularly in American. We now quote—American, basis of middling, ship named, Uplands 10fd, Mobile lOjd and Mew Orleans 10«d Oomrawuttee, fair New Merchants, March-April shipment, via Cape Bid, via Suez Canal 9d. These quotations show a decline during the week of id to 2d on American, and id on Surats to arrive. '1 he course of the market during the past week is due in a large measure to the break down in prices in all the American markets, enabling holders of Cotton to sell on the spot, and replace at cheaper prices by buying in America. The continued large receipts at, and shipment from American ports, have brought out a large number of “Hears,'' offering Cotton to ar rive at prices considerably lower than Cot ton on the spot, which has had the effect of causing spinners to buy as sparingly as possible, although it is difficult to see how they continue to buy so little week by week. •Since the commencement of the year the trade have taken from this port and iiondon 511,455 bales, and assuming their stock on Ist January to have been 80,U00 bales, which was the estimate of the Cotton Brokers' Awr ciatioD, and consumption to have averaged 55,000 bales per week, their stock of Cotton would appear to be re duced to about 42,000 bales. The actual stock, however, iD the hands of spinners is no doubt larger than this, which is accounted for by considerable quantises of Cotton having been forward ed direct to the mills from the ship’s side, not reported to the Cotton Brokers' Asso ciation, and consequently not deducted from the stock here. The impression has been gaining ground week by week that this has been the case to the extent of several thousand bales, and has caused tho Board of Brokers to come to the con clusion to c/mnt tho stock of Cotton here on the 18th instant. Owing to the prevalence of easterly winds the arrivals of Cotton have been very light, reaching only 67,139 bales in throe weeks. About 100,000 to 120,000 bales are now due, much of which will arrive as soon as we have a few days of favourable winds; and it remains to be Been what effeot these large imports will have upon prices here. Some contend they will be pressed upon the market by weak holders and still further depress us, while others are of the opinion that a large import will give such a selection as will induce spinners to come into the market and buy freely, more es pecially as wo are dow at what are general ly considered comparatively safe prices. The latter opinion is to some extent war ranted by the supposed small stocks now in tho hands of spinnors, equal to 42,000 bales, as given above. We, however, feel quite sure their stocks have not been re duced to such a low point, and the most reasonable explanation wo can give is that our table of deliveries, is incorrect. But be this as it may, there can be no doubt that spinners’ stocks of Cotton are now reduced to a very low point. In the first place the tenor of advices from America iias given promise of an abundant supply, and induced them to purchase sparingly; and in the second place it is almost certain many are awaiting tho large impoit before buying freely, 9he same goneral causes that have induced our home trade to pur chase so sparingly since the commence ment of the year have no doubt operated in the same direction both in America and on the Continent. We therefore think it safe to estimate that the trade in Europe and America now hold some 100,000 to 120,000 bales less than at this time last year. The present visible supply, is in round numbers 190,000 greater than at this date last year, whereas, by our last report, it was 210,000 bales in excess of correspond ing poriod ol 1869. Tho stocks at Bremen, Marseilles and other Continental ports, omitting Havre, wore on the 4th instant 42,400 bales, against 26,800 bales at this date last year. Taking these figures into account, and as suming our foregoing estimate of cotton held by tho trade in Europe and America as correct, we arrive at the conclusion that the actual supply is now some 85,00 b to 105,(X)0 bales larger than at this date last year, from whicb falls to be deducted enough to cover the doficit in stocks of goods, Ao. in Manchester, as compared with same date last year, but what that deficit is it is extremely difficult to deter mine. At Manchester a small business has been done during the week, market closing to day very quiet, with a few low offers ma king, and prices again slightly in favor of the buyer.

Bell, Ventz A Lucius, in their circular of that date say—“ Cotton market decidedly weaker, in conseqeoce of rumors of lower quotations from Liverpool and Havre. Now Cotton begins to come in rnoro lreeiy, and up-country markets are decidedly bet ter supplied. Cotton on shipboard in the harbor of Bombay, aooordtug to Customs’ pass notes, 59,188 bales against 145,605 bales at same date last year. By telegraphic despatch we learn that the clearances from Bombay to Europe tor first week in March were 10,000 bales, against 44,000 bales for corresponding week oi last year. Shipments this month are expected to bo much less than in March of last year, but how far this will be realized remains to be seen. Ilrearistutls. STOCK OF CHAIN IN CHICAUO.

In wheat there was more activity of de mand for spring, but the offerings were in excess of request, and considerable quanti ties were held over, lu wiuter there was less inquiry for choice, but medium mill ing grades were in demand in excess of supplies, aud the market was a shade stronger. The receipts of corn was unex pectedly large yesterday (over 50,000 bushels),and the market gave way l@2a, at which decline it was fairly active,there being added to the Southern demand an inquiry for shipment to interior points in the New England States, the entire shipping de mand absorbing all offerings of desirable lots. Camp and common was dull and difficult to place at the decline The de cline in corn carried down oats in shipping lots lc, although the receipts were not large. Bulk, however, were fairly main taiued at former prices. There was a fair demand for the better qualities of barley, and the market, though slow, was firm. The offerings of rye was not equal in quality to the demand of sellers, but the market was fully sustained by distillers. Highwiues wete offered more Ireelv, and the market was firm and unchanged. Trade In Jfeir York. The Journal of Commerce of .March 25th, says of the state of trade . “There is more activity iu trade, al though the purchases have been made cautiously and to a great extent in moder ate bills. There are no such sweeping sales as usually characterize the height of a busy season, but the demand is all the healthier for this reason, aud the risk of a sharp reaction much diminished. Staunch credits remain unimpared. Occasionally a weak house, or one that has been a drag for some time on the money-lending de partment of its leading creditors, goes by the board, but this is lelt as a relief rather than embarrassment, and does not bring those in better standing under any sus picion of insolvency. IVe regret to notice a disposition on the part of some houses having ample capital to speculate in cottom or what is still worse, to take a turn in stocks; or to go outside of their legitimate business in some form for the sake of mak ing money rapidly. This is not safe,_ and the sooner it is stopped the better for all concerned. The recent history of one or two old houses of Boston origiu with large eastern connections, ought to point an ob vious moral in this respect lor the benefit of all who are in baste to become mil lionaires. ’’ __ “ from the financial ( hroiuclc. j 10TTP.V.

It appears by the cable report this afternoon that the arrivals at Liverpool of American cottou this week (which for some time have been kept back by unfavorable winds) have been large, reaching 90,000 bales. This has relieved the Liverpool market, improving the sup ply, and consequently left an unfavorable influence upon prices here. The decline lias, from these causes, been continued day by day, as will appear from the quotations of upland cotton each day of the week, given in our table below. Offerings have, however, been very small, and yet the in quiry has been so limited there has been more than sufficient to meet the small demand. To-day, in spite of these adverse influences, the tone of the market hasimproved, the stock being very small and tbs short sales large, and the close was steady at an advance on all grades below middling of )@ie. With tho falling oft in the rates forcottonoD the spot, the wild speculation in future con tracts has also lost spirit, and prices have declined about the same extent, though to-day there has been a slight reaction. Sales of this description reach a total of 12,909 bales (all low middling, or on the basis of low middling, except as herein after stated), of which GOO bales were for March, 100 at 22), 100 at 22|, 100 at 221, and 300 at 211, 4,000 bales for April, 400 at 22), 200 at 22), 400 at 22, 100 21), 1,400 at 21, 950 at 21), 200 at 20f, and 150 at 20); 3,409 bales for May, 1,309 at 22), 100 at 22), 300 at 22), 200 at 21), lOOat 21), 1,000 at 21, 300 at 20), lOOat 20|; 4,300 bales for June, 600 at 22), 200 at 223, TOO at 22.1, 200 at 22, 300 at 21), 100 at 211, 500 at 21, 300 at 21), 100 at 20), 300 at 21, 400 at 20), 100 at 20f, 300 at 20), and 200 average middling at 23) , also 600 bales for Apri l , May and Juoe, )d each month, 300 at 22), and same amount at 22).

Exports for the Y ear ano Consump tion of Spinners.—Of the receipts at the ports thus far our spinners have taken, , up to March 18, about 440,666 bales, as may be seen by the following : ; Stock on hand Sept. 1, 1869 bales. 12,343 Received at ports since Sept. 1 to IfiMaroh IS, ’7O. 2,305,148 Total supply thus far 2.317,491 Exported to Foreign ports since Sept 1 to March 18 1,395,139 Stock on hand March 18 481,686 1,576,525 ] Taken by spinners out receipts at the ports 440,666 Dun eg the whole of last season our spinners took from the ports 698,195 bales, and by so doing increased their stock (for the sake of being on the safe side we will adopt the smaller figure) say 50,000 bales- Hence, if they close this season with the same stock, and the year s consumption were the same, they would require from tire ports, before September Ist, 207,529 bales more than they have already taken, as shown below : Taken from the ports during all last season... 698,195 Os which went into in crease of stock end of year 50,000 Taken from the ports and consumed last year 645,195 Taken from the ports this year to March 18 , 440,666 Leaving to be taken this year bales. 207,529 But the average weekly consumption this year will not equal last year’s con sumption. It is estimated at only 16,000 bales t>cr week, again,t mote than 17,000 bales during 1868-9, and hcocc our tspiL ners will require from the jiortn only about 150,000 bales tor the remainder of tbe season, if they carry over no more stock than they carried over last year. We have left out ol this calculation the overland movement, as there will be in it no mate rial difference for the two years. Now if we return to the figures of future aupplv, as given last week (deducting, however, 100,000 bales so as to keep our conclusions within safe limits), the move ment during the balance of the season would be about as follows : Receipts at the ports from March 18 to Sept. 1 400,000 Stock at the ports March 18 481,686 Total supply from March 18 to Sept. 1 881,636 Required by the mills as above 150,000 Leaving for exports and increase of stock, bales. 731,686 Say we increase stocks to 100,000 Export from March IS to Sept, 1, 1850 631,686 Add export up to March 18 1,395,139 Total exports for the year bales... 2,026,825 We do not claim exactness for tbe above, but we think these figures show pretty conclusively that we shall export this sea son 2,000,000 bales of cotton, unless dur ing the summer the prospects for tbe next crop should become very unfavorable. The exports of cotton this week from New York show au increase over last week, the total reaching 14,193 bales, against 12,161 bales iast week. News. --The exports of cot ton from the United States the past week, as per latest mail returns, have reached 80,504 bales. So far as the Southern ports are concerned, these are the same export reported by telegraph, and publish ed in the Chronicle last Friday, except Galveston, and the figures for that port are the exports for two weeks back. With regard to New York, we include the manifest only up to Tuesday night, to make the figures correspond with the official week. European and Indian Cotton Mar- j :<ETS. —In reference to these markets, our correspondent in London, writing under j the date of March 12, states : Liverpool, March 12.—The cotton j market continues depressed and, though the prevalence of easterly winds still cur tails the choice, prices have further de clined for almost every description. In Sea Island the business lias bean very trifling, and prices lavor the buyer. Ameri can has fallen )d per lb. in the middle, and )d in the lower grades. Brazil has been in moderate demand, and quotations are generally )d per lb. lower. Egyptian continues very depressed and irregular in price, the general decline being fully )d to )d per lb. In East Indian the transac tions have again been on a very moderate scale, at a further decline, averaging about )d in Surat, and )d to )d in Madras and Bengal. The transactions “to arrive” continue numerous, and at declining rates. The latest quotations are: American, basis -of Middling, from any port, Feb- March shipment, per steamer 10 11 -16d ; March-April and April-May lOfd—New Orleans, ship named, lid—Mobile, ship named, 10Jd —Savannah, ship named, and due, 10)d —Low Middling, Texas, ship ping or shipped, 10)d; ship named, lOfd — Dhollerah, fair new Merchants, via Cape, April-May shipment, 8 13 16d@8| —Oom- rawuttee, fair new Merchants, via Cape, January-February shipment, 9)d; Februa ry-March, March-April, 9d per lb. The sales of the week, including forwarded, amount to 46,320 bales, of which 2,980 are on speculation, and 4,900 declared for ex port, leaving 38,440 bales to the trade. [from the Baltimor e American.] Tobacco—An Interesting His torical Sketch. A n interesting historical article by Dr. William Bacon Stevens, published in the Magnolia Magazine in 1844, gives an account, of the first introduction of tobac co into England. It is an account of the “First English Voyage to Virginia,” made iD the year 1584 by Captains Ainadus and Barlow, at the charge and under the auspices of Sir Walter Raleigh. Anderson, in his “History of Com merce,” says they took home with them some tobacco, the first that was ever seen in England. But this is erroneous, as in “Stow’s Chronicle” it is stated that Sir John Hawkins carried it thither in the year 1565, but it was then considered as a mere drug, and the “Chronicle” tells us “all men wondered what it meant.” This account of Stow is confirmed by Hakinyt, who, in his narrative of the voyage of Sir Johu Hawkins, in 1565, thus speaks of the article as observed by that navigator amoug the Florida Indians: “The Floridians, when they travel, have a kind of herb dried, which, with a cane, and an earthen cup cn the end, with fire, and the dried herbs put together, do suck through the cane the smoko thereof, which smoke satisfieth their hunger.” Hawkins probably carried a specimen of it to England as a cariosity. Camden and other authorities, however, assert that tobacco was first taken to Eng land by Ralph Lane, Governor of the Virginia adventurers, in 1586. That the colonists at that time learned the use of this narcotic is evident from what Harlot, “a man of science and observation,” who accompanied Mr. Lane says : “Tbe Indians,” he writes, “used to take the fume or smoke thereof, by smoking it in pipes made of clay. We, ourselves, during the time we were thet e, u ed to suck it after their fashion, as also since our re turn.” The interest and example of Sir Walter Raleigh, “a man ot gaiety and fashion,” soon brought it into such vogue at court, says Smith, that many great ladies- as well as noblemen, made no scruple to take a pipe. Wc are not informed whether the Queen herself made use of it, but it is certain that she gave great countenance ana en couragement to it, as a vegetable of singu lar strength and power, which might, therefore, prove oi benefit to mankind and advantage to the nation. So far, as Mr. Oldys well observes, was this wise Princess from the refined taste of her successor, who held tobacco in such abomination, that lie not only refused to use it himsell, but endeavored to destroy and suppress it amoDg h : s subjects, ami would thereby have robbed the crowu of what has since proved one ol its noblest jewels and most considerable revenue, and the nation of a very advantageous branch of trade. Sir W alter Raleigh’s tobacco-box, with some of his pipes, were extant and laid up among the rarities of the museum of that curious antiquarian, the late Ralph Thom sly of Leeds, England. • There are some humerous stories still | remembered concerning the first use of to bacco, particularly Raleigh’s wager with the QueeD, that he would determine ex actly the weight of the smoke that went off iu a pipe of tobacco. This he did by first weighing the tobacco, and then care i fully preserving and weighing the ashes, and the Queen readily granted that what was wanting in prime weight must be evaporated in smoke, and when she paid the wager she said pleasantly that she had heard of many laborers in the fire who had turned their gold into smoke, but Raleigh was the first who had turned his smoke into gold. It was also related that a country ser vant of his, bringing him a tankard of ale and nutmeg into his study, as he was in tently engaged at his book, smoking a pipe of tobacco, the fellow was so frightened at seeing the smoke come out of his mouth, that he threw the ale into his face iu order to extinguish the fire, and ran down stairs, alarming the family and crying out that his master was on fire, aDd before they could get up would be burned to ashes. “Certainly,” says Camden, “from that time forward it began to grow iu great re quest, and to be sold at a high rate.” It is remarkable that, in all our early ac counts of the American aborigines, we find the use of tobacco specified. Carter, in iu 1535, found it ia Canada, and thus de scribes it: “There groweth a certain kind of herb whereof in summer they make great provisions for all the year, making gteat account of it, and oniy_ men use it. At first they cause it to be dried in the sun, then wear ii about their neck, wrapped in a little beast’s skin, made like a little fag, with a hollow piece of stone or wood, like a pipe, when they please they make pow der of it, and putting it in one end of said corret or pipe, and laying a coal of fire up on it, at the other end suck so long that they fill their bodies with smoke, till that it cometh out of their mouth and_ nostrils, even as out of the funnel ol a chimney.” Brereton, in his Journal of Gosnold’s Voyages in 1602, and Rozier, in his ac count of Weymouth's voyages to Eng land in 1605, both speak of its use among the Indians in those parts. But in this case it was not smoking or chewing, or snuffing, but drinking. “They gave us also,’’ says Brereton, “of their tobacco, which they drink green, but dried with powder, very strong and pleasant.'’ “We drank of their excellent tobacco," writes Rozier, “as much as we would with them, but we saw not any great quantity to truck lor, and it seemed that they had not much left of the old, for they spent a great quantity yearly by their continued drink -IDl ^ ne found it among the Virginians, Hawkins among the Floridians, and the . Spaniards among the Mexicans, “where ; the natives took it not only in smoke at the . mouth, but also in snuff at the nose; and 1 it was such a luxury with them that Lords of Mexico composed themselves to deep | with it.” “Its name,” says Anderson, “was probably given it by the Spaniards, before this time, from the Isle of Tobago, one of the Caribbes, where it was produced in abundance.” TAFFETA COTTON.

I prepared my land in the usual way, that is, I broke or flushed it with a turn-plow I run ufl' my rows with a scooter-plow, three feet turee inches, and -pread the Phosphate just thick enough for the sack (167 lbs-) to go over one acre of land.
