We closed our last weekly report of the cotton marke' undor date of 30th Inst Middling Uplands were rated at 4lc. to 41 Sc. On Saturday. 31st inst, there was a general disposi? tion to operate, which, ho rover, waa checked by tho low rate of sterling exchange, occasioned, in a great measure, by the demand for gold from our merchants to cover their short sales, together with no abate a cnt In the excessive amount of 8 om li ern cotton bills offering. Cash gold was loaned at 3-16 and >? por cent premiam from Saturday to Monday. Bankers, consequently, pre? ferred taking advantage of such quick turca, for the time, rather than invest in sterling sejoany days previ? ous to the sailing of a steamer. T? sales, notwith? standing amounted to 3000 bales at abduction of J?c, say 40Ko. for Middling Uplands. . /' On Monday the steamer City of Btrit arrived with Liverpool advices to 23d Instant, reporting a firm mar? kst on the Monday pre cod lng the departure of tho steam? er; but the market bocame dull, anda .'.id. lower cn Tuosdayand Wednesday, with sa'es of |$,( 00 bales for two days. Middling Uplands were rated at 19\ d. ; thia intelligence depressed oar market, ?nd rendered it dall at the opening: bnt as sterling ?as in more request daring the day. operators were influenced to offer better prices for the staple. About 3600 bales 'changed hands on a basis of 40@40)? cents for Middling Upland a. On ruosday the marget opened wi :h a fair demand for export at the quotations of Monday, which would have resulted In a large business, had sot the low prices obtained (accord lng to the printed daisi fl rail on) by tbs Government, at their auction sale cf 8003? bales, deterred operators, and led them to expect much lower prices. The sales footed np 3600 bales at 40 a conta. On Wednesday there waa a deaumd'framnxportcrs to fill orders; bat sa holders preferred to take the risk of another sUs?cnsr from Europe before "*?Mfg the con cei&lon demanded, few orders were exeoofed. Our spinners alsohave reappeared In market, as their stock has boen much reduced, and few are found to possets rashness saffloient to make contracts to thom for future delivery -at the present rates. Iho sales amounted to 2260 bales at 39Xe. to -10 'ic. for Middling Upland.

On Saturday, m th ultimo, the market was '?d. lower; Upland Mtddll ps were quoted at 19,'.. d. The decline in prices was attri? buted ohlefly to the heavy Imports on Cotton (136,700 halos).

Over 45,000 Lavo been oxported from tho United State? ti foreign countries during the past six days, amouutlng in value to the enormous sum of nine millions of dollars. Quito a number of our commission hoiiHOB prefcrrod to forego the execution of their ordure, which could have been reached in rainy instances to ac? cepting tiio lo v rates which banbors were inclined to oller. h?-uee the staple had passively to submit to each day's quoted redaction, particularly as many holders were instructed by their many cmsignors to sell, fear ru'that their reduced margins ml0'ht be wiped out be lore tho reaction take? pl ice. The receipts at a'l thu ports show an increase over our last state neut of iOoO bales. This ls as ire expected, tor Ked River has been at such a high stago of water during th'i past ten duyi that the largest class boats have ascended as far as dellerton, 1 esas, and brought down tery considerable load-. Ibo bulk of thia cotton (amounting lo about 60,000 bales) will be ont by tho middloor cul of this month. The next paint ot in? creased supply his oten from Memphis, were some '21,000 bales were stored up for higher prices, and uow IA being forced to New Orloons for sale, from the abso? lute necessities of tho c wnors. We must say we are at a loss where to buk for, or to expect, any largo amount of cotton, when these sourced of supply aro dried up. The stocks at he ports have decreased since last week nearly 30,000 bales. The Liverpool market has shown great strength in the foes of such heavy imports-sum ciont, wc think, to warrant us lu coinciding with many in the opinion that Cotton has "about touched bottom."

[Corrapondcnce of the Baltimore Sun ] WASBIKOTOH, April 6.-Tho political meeting of e?t. zens and sojourners in the city to-night will be held under National Union Republican auspices. In tbls re? spect, some of its Irienda claim that lt will be s counter? part of the meeting of the Sid February. The proclamation of peace ought to have the effect to conciliate the support of rational ?nd national men in Congress for the Pi seiden t's policy; but so far it only serves to enrage the Radicals, while the Republicans proper appear tobe indifferent to it. It is rumored that two distinguished Republican Senstors, who have not hitherto given any support to the President, will soon manifest a friendly disposition tow >rds his policy. Tho Radicals cannot keep the lead which they have assumed without alienating some of the Republicans, though thc majority of them have exhibited a willingness to succumb lo Mr. Sumner. I am persuaded that a majority of tho Senate will be quito willing to closo the present session about the first of July, leaving tho management of affairs in the hands of tho President. What conree will ?he President take, as soon as he ls released from the presence of Congress? I First, ho will rc nodol his Cabinet For six nv 'Uths. at | any rate, his appointees will hold their positions, and by the tim? the Senate rejects theso nominations, af? fairs will be so well arracged that the headless depart? ments can bs well managed by subordinates. Some offices of political Importance msy change hands, (hough L 'liing Uko a general proscripti n wi 1 be entered upen, unless some definite object can be gained by it. Again, the President may deal with th < exoluded States as circumstances may require. To some he may I restete the writ of habeas corpus Immediately, and aU | finally, before tho next session. . The present prospect is that the veto of the Civil I Rights Bill will be sustained. IOTA. I si roar ANT OBOES FROM GEN. TILLSOM nt GEORGIA. Tho foUowlng impartant order is from Gen.
