MARKETS.

COTTON.—lavaavoot, Nov. I.—The market closed
very lithely, and prows of America*, were id. per lb. and
&rats and Egyptians jd. per lb dearer then last week.
The other descriptions were unchanged. The sales were
8,000 bales-1,000 oa speettlatlon—comprislng 310 Perna=
and Maranham, 51d. to Std .; 200 Bahia, sfd. to ad. ; 400
Egyptian. 51d. to 7ld. ; and 1,000 Band, 3ld. to 4p. pr lb.
Imports for the week, 25,000 bales.

COTTON GOODS —lll.txxanemn, Nov I.—Money is
found to be rather exsier, erd banker, here have discounted
short dated paper at five and three months' bills at 61 per
cent. for customers. This change, together with the firmer
potation of the cotton market, no doubt is the principal
explanation of the hotter tone which has prevailed in this
market since the close of last week, and which still eooti•
cues. The business doing is not large, but some fair eel's
or shirting. and exadepollanis have been effected fur India
sad Chins, and long clothe, T cloths, and domestics, are
more saleable, at the full advance of Tuesday. In yarns
prices are fully per lb. better; but there are considkr•
able stocks of both yarn and cloth which have not yet been
cleated off.

THE CORN TRADE.-Btaxtuourac,Nov.l.-During
the past month the price of wheat has advanced 6.. to 8..
per quarter, but has given way a little during the last
week ; yet since the farmers appear g ily to prefer
holding their produce to disposieg of it at a reduced price,
whilst the war with Russia continues, we see little prospect
of much, if any, reduction, especially as potatoes have re-
cently materially advanced : the last quotations from the
United States, with the addition of freight charge., at the
current rates, make the cost of fine wheat, when laid down
in this country, fully 1001. per quarter. It is reported
from New York that, even at thew high prices, both the
French and English governments have made very large
purchases, the latter supposed to be for the Crimes ; but,
since these had been completed, a decline had occurred,
both in breadstuff. and freights, though it was not
expected there would be a much further reduction in
prices; and in most of the states the supply will
be in a great degree suspended during the winter.
In the north of Europe the crops are so deficient
that there is no prospect of our receiving much from
thence before the spring, if we do at all ; indeed it is by rt.,
mesas unlikely that some of the Baltic ports will have to
import instead of export grain. The statements published
by the French government, which pauses. means for as.
eartaining the result of the harvest far superior to any we ,
have in England, prove beyond doubt that the crop of
wheat in France is greatly defielen% The Pasha of Bent
has prohibited the export of corn after the 6th of January
nest, anticipating a deficiency, arising from the Nile not
having overflowed Its banks to nearly the usual extent. The
export from the Neapolitan and Roman states is still prohi-
bited, end the same courts is expected to be adopted in
Spain. And finally, a war with the United States is now
talkel ot, which would of course stop the *ap-
ply from the only quarter whence we can oh •
tam any considerable quantity, except perhaps the Danube.
With regard to our own crop, as thrashing proceeds we hear
more complsinte of the yield, and we are now of the opinion
that, with the exception of a few of the midland coun-
ties, it will prove much below an average. Under these cir-
cumstance., the advance which has taken piste since bar•
vest is not surprising ; and as we are now almost entirely
pendent on our farmers for future supply, there is nothing
to justify the expectation of rod•oed Mee, unless it be a
decreased consumption arising from inability to purchase
on the part of the working classes ; and they have already
heen compelled to a considerable extent to resort to other
food instead of bread. English wheat is selling at 101.41.
to 10c Bd. for old red ; new, 9s. 10d. to 10s. 84.; old white,
10s. Bd. to Ile. ; new 10t. 2d. to 10s. 9d. per 621hs. The
favourable reports of the barley crop have, we believe,
been fully ocistrened on thrashing; and notwithstanding the
advance is wheat, this article has not rises mots than le.
per quarter, and that only on the finer qualities; the infe-
rior kinds, and those for grinding purposes, are in more
limited request than usual at this season of the year. We
have no arrivals of foreign, nor are we aware of any en
passage. A few parcels of lighter description are arriving
from Ireland, and are selling at 36e. to 37e. per 3921 be. ;
whilst Syrian is held at 335. to 345. per 39211.5. at Binnieg •
ham. Oar imports of oats from Ireland have increased, sad
are now fully equal to the demand ; the price improved
early in the month Is. to 2s. per quarter, bat this has not
been quite maintained, suer on grey, which are not so
plentiful as usual. Oar present prices are :-Black, 27s 6d.
to 28e. ; grey, 281. Bd. to 291. Al.; l gbt white, 29e.
to 291.64. ; heavy, 295. 6d. to 31s. per 3121 be. at Gloucester.
The crop of beans proves large, but, es a good many ere still
is the fields, and few were severed before the rains, the
quality is injured and condition se bad that they ace not
likely to be thrashed freely beton the spring: they have
advaneed daring the month 3e. to 4e. per quarter. Old
English are held for 21e. to 22s ; Egyptian, 18s. 6d. to 19e.
par 19611a5, at Birmingham. rimers less in request, at the
pewit high currency of 19s. to 20e. per 19611 e. for grinding.
The little Indian worn remaining at Gloucester has been
cleared off at 1/e. 61 to 181 per 19611 e. We have mote
demand for Dui, at 171. per 1981131. at Gloseester.-(Freia
