The Money Market is evidently easier. The banks
discount freely and the rate of interest in the
to-day, is about six per cent. II is the gene
raj opinion among operators, that the high rates
for sterling exchange now currenf, cannot be sus-
ained and that the immense amount OF cotton bills
in the market must find purchasers and thus relieve
the banks and the money market from the restrictions
that have lang existed Should the anticipated ad-
vices from Liverpool in relation to cotton he favorable or
should the last accounts in regard to prices be confirm.
ed the credit Of bills drawn shipments Of cotton,
must at once be sufficiently established to induce those
making remittances, ito take them. When money is
and commands than the legal rate Of interest,"
those obliged to make remittances Europe are often
compelled to purchase bills ofsxchange credit giving
as security their bills receivable Those msking an
operation of this nature would generally remit cotton
bills The foreign exchange market must soon be 70
lieved, through the operation of other movements
Bills Of exchange drawn actual sales OF cotton in
Liverpool must be as good any Of those dawn by
agents Of European houses and bills Of exchange rawn
shipments of cotton must be worth very the ce,
il drawn fairly, and not above the market value Of he
staple in Liverpool Amidst the whole of the revulssn


in the cotton markets of this country and Of Europe there
has been very little trouble experienced from the return
non-payment of cotton bills They have generally
backed by good houses who have protected them at
maturity and prevented endorsements.


Our late advces from Liverpool state that the impress
sion among the heaviest operators in that market was,
prices for cotton had touched bottom that the quota
tions then current would be sustained matter what
the supplies from the United States II this be 30,
there be risk in freely remng cotton bills of
change to lquidate Indebtedness abroad but the

commercial community


The importstons into this port for January shown
by tables recently published very large and Is
possible the receipts may continue equally for
time to come bnt from existing indications ef
the opinion that will be very difficult to nnd markets
for the supplies Our obbers have determined not to do


large business they have for the past two
They yet u doubts to the value Of their sutstsnd


ing debts particularly those due from the south and wes
and until their bills receivable prove better than antci
pated win feel little disposed to extend their business
Aivces daily received from agents travelling through the
and southern country very unavorabe and
coming to hand at this time will influence the principals
here in purchasing stocks for their spring trade The
supplies Of foreign manufactures daily coming into this
market can not therefore, under these circumstances,
Hni very ready SALE and must ultimately, induce the
manu- uacturers abroad TO withhold further supplies
