(From T. 4 le' Co.'s Circular.)

There has been a fair business transacted
throughout last month, and with little fluctuation
in prices. The deliveries of China silk are
5,620 bales, and the present stock is only 17,000
bales., The recent arrivals of new silk suitable
for home consumption have been readily sold at
an advance of 6d. per lb, but by far the greater
proportion still continues to be exported, our own
manufacturers and throwsters• being but partially
employed. In Bengal silks but little business has
been transacted, prices weak and irregular, With-
out any material reduction. The stock is reduced
to 4,700 bales, which is less than has been
for many yaars. Italian and Persian Silks :
We have no change to report in prices—but
little of the new crop has yet arrived, and
stocks of both descriptions are extremely light.
East India and China Silk. ,riece Goods : The
public sales just concluded haVe passed off heavily,
60,300 pieces of Corahs were brought forward,
but only 20,000 were disposed of at previous rates.
For Bandannoes and Choppahs there was a better
demand, and the best qualities were all disposed
of at improved rates. Gum Waste Silk, and
Knubbs and Husks : Prices have remained steady
during the past month, but spinners will only
buy for their immediate use—some new Italian
Waste has arrived, whichis held for an advance,
but spinners decline to purchase. Some large
shipments have been made to this country, both
from India and China, which may be expected
shortly to arrive.

'cant Suitt.
(From T. 4 H. Littledale 4 Co.'s Monthly Circular)
The chief topic of conversation during the month
has been the weather, and as rain or sunshine at
the moment predominated, so alternated the hopes
or fears of the future. The balance of effect,
however, has been very trifling, for, notwith-
standing the continuance of unfavourable weather,
the harvest reports from the various counties have
rather improved than otherwise—besides which,
the fact that any deficiency of Corn at home will
be made good from abroad, has become patent to
everyone—so that a high price for Bread is now
clearly seen to be impossible. It is not likely,
therefore, that the consumption of Wool, which
has hitherto been well supported, will undergo
any diminution ; and, although prices may con-
tinue to oscillate to some extent until the present
phase of things has passed away, they must even-
tually be maintained. The London Colonial sales,
which in our last we reported to be progressing at
the rates of the previous series, continued at this
range until towards the close, when a decline
of ld to lid per lb. took place on inferior and ill-
conditioned parcels. The entire series contained
the enormous quantity of 88,738 bales, taking
from the 19th July to the 30th August to dispose
of. The London low sales took place on the 31st
of AuguSt and Ist September; they contained
1,571 bales East India Wool, which sold with tole-
rable spirit at the average rates of the last Liver-
pool sales. English Wools, which at the date of
our last were on the decline, have since rallied,
and the tone of the market at present is firm, with
a tendency upwards. Stocks of low Foreign
Wools continue light, and the assortment any-
thing but tempting ; the amount of business
doing, therefore, is limited, and without change in
prices: The next Liverpool public sales will com-
mence on the 19th current. The arrivals of East
India Wool up to our date are 13,906 bales.

fruit arktt.
(From Houghton 4. _Levy's Monthly Circular)

Currants: The first arrivals of new Fruit came
to hand on the Ist inst. The Semaphore, with
about 300 tons, consisting of Vostizza, Patras,
and Filatra; the Euphrates with 180 tons Cepha-
lonia : since then we have the Gertrude with 300
tons Patras, and the Despatch with 250 tons
Cephalonia. The market opened at London' at
40s and 425. Some parcels of Cephalonia were
sold here to arrive at the former price, but
holders generally asked 425; the business, how-
ever, was only very limited, and since then
dealers have held aloof from buying. At public
sale to-day there was a large attendance of the
trade, but our market being influenced by- the
London auctions of Wednesday, only about 50
tons Vostizza were sold.

Raisins : We have had one cargo of new
Valentias, Vie Cervantes (s.s.) with about 200
tons 35s was the opening price, but sales were
shortly made at a slight decline, but the quantity
being now much redueed the market, is firm at
the quotation. Old Fruit in moderate .demand
at 20s to 235. Sultanas—One parcel of Smyrna
has arrived but went direct to London., Persians
selling at. 535. Muscatells—A few old selling at
42s to 455. New have opened abroad at high
prices.
Figs: New Smyrna expected shortly.
selling at 32s to 355.
Almonds : A few Jordan lately arrived held
for extreme rates. French Shell selling to arrive
at 43s in export packages.
Nuts : Barcelonas have gone off freely at 34s
but holders asking an advance has checked busi-
ness. Brazils in limited demand at 18s. Mes-
sinas—Market cleared at 38s.

Old

Green Fruit : A few Oranges arriving bring
extreme rates. Lemons selling at low rates,
the weather having been against consumption.
