COTTON 000D8.-11anciteerins. Fn. 26. -For ship-
ping yarns the market hearses quin,and trinket sake spin-
ners would have to take lower prices. The amount of business
has beat very small. In home trade yarns the market has also
been quiet, buyers limiting their purchases merely to a ad.
&hint geometry to cover the orders they have taken for
cloth. Prime are nominally the same not Tuesday, but
practically buyers tied therm a little in their favour. The
cloth market is somewhat better, and so far as there is any
change it is is favour of the manufacturers. A fair inquiry
has been experienced for most classes of goods suitable for
India and China, and prices sower to have been very well
maintained. The burner doing is still on a limited
scale, and buyers generally are oper.iting with can-
trio. Holderi of cloth and manufacturers appear
to be still sanguine about the mainteranoe of prim
and in most oases ere disposed to increses their quotations.
Messrs. John Pander and Co., in their monthly circular of
this day, say that rem the 9th instant " a fair amount of
bermes has beer done at hardening rates, particularly in
cloths suitable for China." " During the last three or four
days the market has been quiet and lees business done;
still priers see firm, and we hod no pressure to sell. To-
day the feeling is again more cheerful" In China 'birth:lip
