1 Bale marked New 

 Orleans. 



EF 



five-pence farthing to five-pence 

 halfpenny per pound. 



These eight bales are scarcely 

 so good as the twenty-one re- 

 ceived per Earl of Eldon, which 

 had been cleaned in the same way, 

 and were sold on the 23d March 

 1832 at six-pence five-eighths per 

 pound. They had been previously 

 valued at five-pence to five-pence 

 halfpenny per pound in London 

 and at Liverpool. 



Very clean and bright cotton. 

 The staple fair, but a little in- 

 jured by the ginning. Value 

 about six-pence per pound. 



Very clean and bright cotton, 

 but the staple very short, and ra- 

 ther coarse. Injured by the gin- 

 ning. 



This cotton was probably raised from Indian 

 seed, with the exception of the bale marked New 

 Orleans," which is presumed to be from the seed 

 sent out by the Court.
