chiefly those of the Southern and
border States; and as these have been steadily appreciating
in value, under the prospect of an early
resumption of regular
payments of interest, there has been every inducement for
foreign holders to retain them. The Director appears to have
an exaggerated idea of tlie amount of this class of
securities
held in Europe. The amount of investments in
“State,
municipal and other stocks ” (exclusive of railroad) he takes
to be $150,000,000.
Now, ns the total amount of the debts
of the Southern and border
States, including their bonds issued
to railroad and other
companies, is only about $125,000,000,
this estimate must be viewed as
eggregiously exaggerated ;
and the more so as
only a small proportion of the $150,000,000
can be
apportioned to municipal and miscellaneous stocks.
We think that
$60,000,000 will be very generally endorsed
by foreign bankers as the probable amount of State stocks
proper held abroad.

A large

$131,161, which is equivalent to 2T per cent on its assumed

Wednesday morning.

The market has been excited and unsettled all
with quotations at the close about 3 cents off

the week,

from last

Friday tor the higher grades, but a little less on the lower
grades. This unfavorable turn was the result of better reports
with regard td the crop, extremely liberal receipts at the ports,
and large offerings on the piers, with considerable sales for
future delivery below previous rates.
Lots on the piers have
been pressed for sale, being offered some of the time fully lc.
below lots in store under peremptory orders to sell and not
store, while sales for Octobter delivery, seller’s option, have
been effected at 25c., and for December delivery, at 28c., the

middling. The market for goods has been
quite active, but spinners are looking for lower r<?tes, and there¬
fore, have only made limited purchases to supply their more
pressing wants, making low bids, and picking up some lots at
low figures.
The sales of the week foot up 7,399 bales, ot
which 5,198 bales were taken by spinners, 1,616 bales for
export, and 585 bales on speculation. The following are tbe
closing quotations.

By special telegrams received by us to-night from each of
the Southern ports we are in possession of the returns show¬
ing the receipts, experts, &e., of cotton for the week end¬
ing this evening, Sept. 11. From the figures thus obtained
it appears that the total receipts for the last seven days have
reached 11,009 bales, against 4,097* bales last week, 1,699
bales the previous week, and 937 bales three weeks since),
making the aggregate receipts since September 1, 1868 up to
this date, 15,106 bales, .against 10,165 bales for the same
period in 1867, being an excess this season over last season of
4,941 bales. These figures, indicating the rapidity with which
the staple is being sent to market, show also the forward state
of the crop as compared with last season; We anticipate
very liberal arrivals during the next six weeks unless the
movement is checked by a too decided fall in prices.

considerable difference still in estimates of the probable
yield the coming season, some continuing to give as high a figure as
2,7;,0,000 bales, and others as low as 2,250,000 bales. It would be
more satisfactory if t were stated in these estimates whether reference
was made to the receipts at the ports or to the total crop.
Until we
began to make our annual statements these two terms were used as
eynonymous, no one ever supposing apparently that the amount sent
direct to the manufacture a was a part of the crop.
For instance the
past year, as will appear from our annual review, which we shall,pub
lifch in circular form on Wednesday, the receipts at the ports have been
about 2,250,000 tales, but the actual crop reaches about 2,500,000 bales,
the difference being the amount going directly to our manufacturers and
not appearing in the receipts at our Atlantic and Gulf shipping ports.

course of receipts at the different ports have been as follows for each

presents a fair aver¬

for this season of the year, but it is possible that this dis¬
counting of the coming cotton crop may produce a continued
inactivity, unless as great caution is shown by manufacturers,
as is now the case with buyers.
Standards have been reduced
one cent, and yet this fact has led to no increase
of transac¬
tions, buyers restricting their orders to their most immediate
requirements. Agents claim that these goods are now selling
on the basis of 23@24c, for middling cotton; and
as stocks
show no large accumulation, that it would be an ill-advised
step to accede to any further decline. These arguments are
true in the main, but the jobbers cannot afford to stand idle;
the stock must be cleared out, and they will probably take the
customary measures to attract trade and hasten purchasers in
laying in their Fall stocks.
The exports of dry goods for the past week, and since Jan¬
uary 1, 1868, and the total for the same time in 1867 and

being a little later than usual. Iu cloths and over¬
coatings the clothiers are buying more freely, but the jobbing demand
is not up to the mark.
Foreign woolens are being taken in small lota
for first class trade at somewhat low prices.
The following extracts from the London Economist, will show the
condition of trade in the British manufacturing districts:
Manchester, Aug. 27- Under the influence of sales of cotton in Liver¬
pool at advancing rates, producers here have been compelled to advance
their prices also—this however has materially checked business in tnis
market, as sellers are generally indifferent to orders unless at full
rates, which buyers do not yet care to give.
Producers are generally
well engaged, but weak holders of stock h-re and there who will ac¬
cept something under full prices can easily dispose of their productions.
India shirtings and 9-Sths printers are still in good demand, and the
latter are very scarce. Yarns are very firm, but not in great demand
at the prices asked.
* Bradford.—Choice parcels of lustre woil continue extremely firm
in price, while in inferior sorts, which are much negleGted, there is a
softening tendency. In worsted yarns the demand is confined almost
exclusively to the home trade. The export houses are operating very
sparingly. Owing to the heavy orders which spinuers have in hand,
prices are veryfirmly maintained.,
Belfast.—Flax—Demand generally active, at firm pi ices. Yarns
—Owing to handloom weavers being employed in outdoor labor busi¬
ness
generally was restricted. Handloom linens, brown—Demand
limited.
Powerloom—A fair demand exists for cloth for dyeing.
Stocks not large; no change in prices.
Bleachei and finished lineus—
Transactions on home account rather more numerous than in preceding
week, still any transactions that occurred were for the supply of press¬
ing wants.
Dundee—The amount of business passing here is still somewhat on
the increase, and prices are generally steadier.
