NEWS OFFICE, I
Wednesday Evening. Nov. 15,1816. (
Business improved to-day with better
weather, although it was cold and
drizzly all day.
Better advices from abroad gave some
impetus to the demand for cotton to-
day, and sales were large.
Coffee is steady and stocks are being
rapidly reduced. Sugar has taken a
sharp upward turn. Advices by tele-
graph from New York report an ex-
cited market at J to lc. advance, and
prices bo irregular as not to be quot-
able. The prospect of a short crop in
Cuba is said to be the principal cause
for the advances everywhere.
In other leading articles prices will be
found in the main unchanged.
REDUCED F HEIGHTS ON THE SABINE
BIVJCB,
A correspondent writing from Orange,
under date of the 13th, says:
Kds. News—Allow me to say through
the coluins of your paper, for the bene-
fit of the merchants and farmers in the
counties north of this place, situated
on the Sabine river, that all the vessels
(about ten in number) have authorized
me to say that they will carry cotton
from this place to Galveston at one dol-
lar per bale, and back freight they will
bring at 25c. per barrel. In connection
with the sail vessels there will be two
steamers for the Sabine river this sea-
son—the Era No. 8 and D. Van Bus-
kirk. The freight up from this place
by steamers, so far as I can learn, will
be 50c. to Belgrade, 75c. to New Co-
lumbia, and $1 per barrel to Sabine
town. The price on cotton down the
river I am unable, at this time, to give.
This ought to be of great interest to the
merchants of your city.
Vessels can make the trip to Galves-
ton in 24 hours from this place, h. o.
NOTEWOnTIlY.
Miller, Doldonde & Co., of New Or-
leans, in their circular of the 13th, note
an increase in the grain trade of that
port, and chronicle a good demand for
corn and flour for export:
The receipts of provisions and bread-
stuffs since the 1st September are about
equal to those of last year at the same
time, with the exception of grain, which
are larger, and being taken for Europe
in bulk—and for Cuba yellow corn in
strong sacks wanted. Medium quality
of flour scarce and wanted for the local
tade and for Cuba. Double and singlo
extra scarce also, and wanted for Europe
and the local trade. Common and
superfine flour also scarce, in demand
for the local trade and the Continental
ports of Europe.
The Cuban markets ought to furnish
an excellent outlet for surplus receipts
of flour and grain at this port.
COTTON.
The tone of the cotton market has
improved considerably since yesterday,
although the Liverpool spot market
came in this morning " flat and 1-lCd.
lower," and the sales only amounted to
8000 bales, of which 4400 were Ameri-
can, and 1000 for export and specula-
tion. The imports were 8500 bales, all
American. The market for arrivals also
opened weak and l-32d. cheaper, but at
8 o'clock r. m. was reported firm.
The New York spot market opening
dispatch said: "Holders firm, demand
and offerings light at yesterday's
prices." Sales footed up 999 bales, of
which the bulk was to spinners. The
market closed firm. Futures ruled ac-
tive and strong, with sales of 51,300
bales at u heavy advance over yesterday's
closing prices.
The New Orleans market closed ac-
tive and unchanged. Sales 10,500 bales.
The receipts at the outports were 33,-
329 bales, against 86,347 last Wednes-
day, and 28,357 for the corresponding
day last year. The stock at all ports is
780,204 bales, against 565,140 for the
corresponding day last season.
In this market the demand was ac-
tive and general and sales of 5181 bales
were reported. No less than eleven
brokerage firms participated in the
transactions.
The Exchange made no alteration in
prices and reports the market as closing
" easy."
The receipts at this port for the day
were 5406 bales and for to-morrow are
estimated at 6000 bales, some 3000 bales
having arrived this evening which will
be included in to-morrow's statement.
The stock is distributed as follows: On
shipboard for Liverpool, 25,937; for
other foreign ports, 4377; for coastwise
ports, 2561; in compresses and in
transit, 52,197. Total stock, 85,092.
