COMMERCIAL.
NEWS OFFICE,
Monday Evening. September 4, 18t6.
Trade has been good to-day in all
branches, and the number of buyers in
market baa been exceptionally large for
n Monday.
Values of all classes of provisions
maintain a very firm attitude, and the
off take of bacon is fully equal to the
receipts, leaving no stock of any mag
nitude in first hands.
The domand for cotton continues
good, Europe and the continent calling
for new cotton, and domestic spinners
bidding for the old crop. The receipts
are increasing steadily. The worm
doing some damage in the coast
counties. The second crop of worms
lias attacked the plant in many places,
and where poison was not applied in
time the destruction of all the young
cotton may be considered un fait ac-
compli.
The hide market rules strong at the
advance reported on Saturday. Re-
ceipts have been light.
M cssrs. Wm. B. King & Co. place the
News under obligations for a copy of
the first monthly stock, note and bond
circular.
COTTON.
The Liverpool spot market closed ac-
tive and firmer but at unchanged prices,
with sales for the day of 12,000 bales,
of which 8400 were American and 2000
for export and speculation. In the
New York spot market sales to the ex-
tent of 1225 bales transpired, principally
to exporters, and the market closed
steady, the two lower grades being ad-
vanced and the higher grades reduced.
In this market sales to the extent of
520 bales were reported, four brokerage
firms participating in the transactions.
The Exchange reduccd Good ^Middling
