'The cotton market will ocupy a good deal of attention [...] Ferguson and Taylor's "Manchester Monthly Trade Circular," which I have received to-day, after generally observing "that at no former period in the course of a long experience had they ever known the business of that [?cotton] market so embarrassed as at this moment," note in their postscript that for money the terms are: One and a quarter per cent. for cash in ten days!"' |
