HALVKSTON, TKXAS, {
j?'atritd/ y kvknino. June 1875. i
There have been partial advances in
the ottou market to ilny, to wit: ^c. in
Mobile, *c. iu Nevr York futures, and
1 KM. iu Liverpool arrivals. Otherwise
the position is us heretofore. Our own
market is at a standstill. VV e surrender

Liverpool, May 31, 1875.
The in t month has been one of exceeding
. iiiij price* have declined 1-iO to ,d.
spot and ^d. to arrive.

rlrtUiUM by tho Capo at ikl. A dull feeling pre
< >"l. but there wan no despondency, and u
« uiiUb nt bdlief oxistid in higher prices lator
on. The American markets,, however,
showed great weakness : the price of
future deliveries in New York kept
ronMtantly drooping, and our market was de
pressed by large sal< a «»f cotton for lorward
delivery upon ordnr# Trotn the other side. The
receipt0 into Bombay also kept larger than
was e\pecied, and this caused Surat cotton
t«» be freely offered to arrive, and altogether
i\ v.-ry dull tone came over tho mark< t The
Whitweelt holidays occurred in the middle
the month, and it * as expected that some
revival of demand would occur after them,
hut tills opinion proved to be delusive, the
depression increased, and, aided bfr goo l crop
accounts from America, and continued orders
to* II from that aide, a further weakening iu
price- occurred.
Owing to the amall deliveries to the trade
and a largo import, our stock ros« higher than
■ \ pec ted, and reached on tho iWth May !I8S,-
iH O hales, which will likely prove the maxi
muni of the year. Whereas la*t year the
maximum waa attained 16th July—viz ,1,(XW -
0 e hales.
t>n Saturday our market was a shade firmer
under the report froiu Washington that the
Hit re in had ea'i mated a decreased acreage in
col ton. and to-day, in spite of doubfeabont the
autheni » ity t»r tho report, the better feeling
continues, and the prices of diatant deliver-
j. are partially 1 16d. dearer. June delivery,
uplands, can be bought at ? ^d., and August
i« almost liable at 7 15 1 (Id. On the spot
middling uplands are difficult to sell at tho
quotation of 7j(d.
The Manchester market was very dull all
through t he pant month, and great complaiuts
were in ide of the diflk'Ulty of sellia/ tho
lower classes of yarn. The better kinds
of hofli cloth and yarn kept steady, but we
Inn to note the sarno feature as in the pre-
vious month, that cloth is occupying a
-•i i er position than yarn, and likely to do
<• f<>r a locg time to come. There is uo sign
of over production of cloth, but decide 1
i rns of over production in various deacrip
fioim of yarn. Several new spinning.mi.Is
wi I conn come Into operation at Oldham, but
few new looms are putting up, aud as the year
go. \ on i he inargtn between cloth and yarn
will rrohably increase. Tho greatly reduced
div i'l.'iida of t he Joint stock mills at O'dham,
and th • fall iu the value of their shares,
ii rw aai h Ipr.ditabio tho splnaliic
trade has become There is general disap-
point n cut felt in Manchester at 1 he adverse
turn tii'n:M have tak.-u, still we can not say
that there is much depression, and wo think
that some improvement iu business may be

1 " k for a fair response in Manchester.
The money market during the past month
has b. cn quiet, with the Hank rate at U)f per
» nf. For nomo t lme past unpleasant rumors
of impending commercial failures have boon
Hying about London, and considerable uo-
I has been folt iu monetary circles,
but x<> far as wo pah learn there is scarcely
*ufti ient - iiu-e f.»r the mistrust. Tho affairs
of a South Wa'es Irou and coal company aro
b.«li« ved to he embarrassed, and as their lia-
bilities are widely spread in London, some
auxlnty is caused to the banks concerned.
Considerable Iohmcs are also said to have
fallen on the (German banks from the failure
of a Brazilian bank, but nothing is known of
suflh lent moment to upiet the vast financial
holiness of Londan. In the present easy state
of the money market wo don't think that
groa: trouble need be expected: at the same
time caution should be observed till the weak
points have been probed and brought to light.
Tfce prospects of our market have not'al-
tered in any material respect since our last
IsMie. and ret If must be allowed that tho ex-
( si\ e dullness of tho whole month of May
i wh dly unexpected thai we last wrote,
'i i in • i of this, wo Bhould say In brief,
v. re ih" unexpecte.1 accumulation of stock
I re. the unlooaed-for weakness of the Amer-
u» markets, especially Now York "futures,"
which are a sure gauge of the speculative
f ling on the other side; the unexpectedly
lar receipts iu Bombay, and lastly the por-
isf.mt absence of the trade, who have fallen
back on tho stock they accumulated early in
the year.
i'.ut the great facts of the situation aro lit-
11.• all. red; the supply of cotton we have to
work up f"r tho remaluder of the year Is much
I * than last year. Tho visible supply *is
fully 310,000 bauM less, and wo have little
doubt that the torlaible supply is also less,
lor piuners have been goiug out of stock for
nearly two months, whereas at this time last
year they were very full of cotton, both In
F.urope aud America. Suppose tho deficiency
la pinneri stoehs t«> se l(*>,ooo bales, the
total deficit tor the remainder of the year
will be 900,000 bales; that Jb to say, we will
lose the whole surplus added last year to the
a npljr of cotton and opon the next
i -ion with the same weight of stock as was
held iu October, when 9d. for Middling
Uplands was tho ruling price.
it is certainly a fact not to be ignored that
I he e< <ii iimption of cotton In the world for
the twelve months ending 1st October next
will be apparently 900.000 hales above the pro-
duction. ami the fact la the more important
< • 1-ring that the consumption of America
has been much below the normal level this
yoar.
it is not too much to suppose that wore
tralc to revive in America, consumption
would increase there the next seasou by 150,-
1 1 ' lies, and the large amount of new ma-
<■Iiinery coining into play at Oldham will also
ii reate our own consumption. Certainly
I 'm I and and the Continent taken together will
n e phi,ooO bales more next season if there is
no war or untorsoen catastrophe. Suppose,
D Order to bo moderate, that wo
t ike the Increased consumption of Europe
and America to ho only 8X),000 bales, it is evi-
il-'iit that wo shall r«quire 600,000 bales more
i fton to be grown in order to meet It; that
i in the svent of this crop turning out '1,850,-
und bales, next, crop would require to be
I. :".o,ooo bales, simply to meet the consump-
tion of the year, assuming tho same supply
from other quarters.
What reason have wo to expect such a crop?
The various private reports wo have been re-
ceiving for some time past have led us to
look for a small Increase of arwa planted In
cotton. The general idea seems to bo 5 to 10
I or cent, increase in the Southwest aud Ala-
bama, nothing in the Atlantic States, and a
•mall deer ase in the region tributary to
M> mphis- say on tho whole an average in-
creiiMe of to 5 percent. But on Saturday
we u ore surprised to receive a Router's dis-
patch from Washington, published in all the
papers, stating that the Bureau had issued
the report of acreage, and estimated the cot-
ton area at I percent, less, and that in corn
at 1*.' per cent. more. Strango|to say, we have
received to-day from America neither
confirmation nor contradiction of this report.
The effect on the New York market on Satur-
day w* i so Hmall t hal it looks as if tho report
was not believed to be authentic there: at
the same tirne.it is quite possible that tho
b.-arish feeling In New York, and the disposi-
t i .ri to underrate the Bureau may have caused
the feeble response. Wo believe that a dif-
0rrcnt effect will be produced in Kurope if tho
report is confirmed. The Bureau's es-
timate of acreage has always been ac-
( pted as pretty reliable, and will bo taken
as a bettor guide than the private
reports which have of late years been so
deceptive on all points connected with tho
crop. We think the effect wiP. be to cut away
all confident expectations of over 4,000,000.
Indeed, tho yield from such an area, upon tho
iverage of tho last four years, would only bo
ai». of M.*00,000 bales, and wo have already
dmwn that 500,000 to 000,000 bales more will be
needed.
One point, however, has to be borne in
mind the plant has got an excellent start; it
i- a 111 tie late, hut very promising, ami much
superior to its condition at tbis time last
year; the Southern people are also working
w. II. both white and black, and will probably
cultivate the crop more carefully than any
pes loti* on« ' conomy and hard work is the
rule all over the South; credit has never been
at a lower ebb. and planters have putin this
crop more cheaply and independently than
ever before. We might, therefore, have a
larger acre able yield than we have been ac-
customed to, and the Idea of a large crop for
next season has already taken hold of the
American mind; tlioy were, however, so far
wrong in th«lr estimate of last crop that we
do not think their opinion will have much
weight in Kurope this year. It is now recog-
nized that a large •• beat" element in America
giv. .4 a strong bias at certain (>eriod8 of the
year to or »r>,views, and people on this aide
will look more to the amount of acroago and
tho Bureau reports from month to month
ink that our market will bo
\. ry sensitive to any account of damage to the
. rop during tho autumn, and it will need con-
tinuously favorable accounts to keep down
l he reeling that higher prices are before us.
Our sptnners have reduced their stocks in
the past six or seven weeks by 70,000 or HO.OOO
bales, ami aro now but moderately stockcd
for the time of the yoar. On the Continent
we do not think spinners hold large stocks;
(iormany, in particular, is very bare of cot
ton, and must be a largo buyer before very
loiur: indeed, it is difficult to sec what the
Continent will do for American cotton this
year; its visible supply is 100,000 balos less,
and the season for importing from America is
nearly over. It must either buy largely here
in the autumn, or take the first arrivals of new
crop eagerly from America. Last year the
new crop came to England in unusual quanti
ty; apparently it will do tho opposite this
vear. No doubt tho political uneasiaess
that has prevailed on tho Continent for
l<»ng time has deterred spinner* from laying
in as much stook as usual, but wc think that
/le real cause exists for that uneasiness
co is evidently in no position to go to
i at present, and will studiously avoid all
ext. for a quarrel with Germany, ami the
runient of that great country is not so
j tt of reaaon and moral sense as dellbe-
■u to fasten a quarrel on its beaten one-
ii order to shatter its growing strength,
an outrage could only recoil on tho
of ; s authors, and wo believe that no
'b -igu is harborjd by the German gov
nt.
prices have advanced an average of £c.,

A MINIATURE STEAMER.
Tho steam launch "Fannie," which was
brought ont from New York by the steamer
Luola Mnrchison, has been launched from
Lilfkin's wharf, and is a model little propel-
ler. The Fannie, we are informed, will be
used in transporting the mail from this port
to Liberty, and will doubtless be a novel sight
for the denizens of the lower Trinity.
