COTTON.—Livaarooc, MAUCH 31.—Our maiket to-

lower qualities of Americas. The good stapled sorts, how-

WOOL.—LyrattFooc, April l.—(From J. Heiken
and Co.'s circular.) The month just terminated has been
exceedingly fiat, and the Wool market has even assumed a
quieter aspect than the preceding one; in some cases this
arises from want of stocks, but generally from limited de•
wand. It would have been gratifying to record favourable
indications from, the various manufacturing towns, but from
all quarters the complaining increases rather than dimi-
nishes, and so limited are the orders offering that
many mills are working short time. When this position
of matters is @Friesian considered, and the unromunerating
return the consumer has for his labour, it becomes a
speculative question as to how prices are and will be af-
fected for a time, should the market continue in the same
gloomy state. Although the consumption 'going on at the
present time is very much curtailed, and may be regarded
as considerably below an average, yet price, of most des-
criptions are likely to be maintained, es the quantity of the
raw material on hand is email, and the high rates abroad
present no inducement to merchants for extending imports.
The prices have had an upper tendency in long Oporto
ewe and the combing classes of Egyptian, which scarcity
alone bee produced, as the manufacturer is in no better pctei-
ties mew than before the advance was given. Our quotations

though the quantity sold is of no great magnitude ; skin is
also to be had on rather easier terms for emitting, short
keeps without change. Ina short time public sales will be
held here; some parcels now in, are to be brought forward,
when it probable a better tone will be manifest.

prices. Baer, 2a. lOd. to 3a. Bd. Mutton, 3s. Bd. to 4a. 4,d.

STILATIPOILD-ON-AVON FAIL March
31.—There was a good supply of stock of all kinds at this
fair; but trade was flat throughout the day except for store
Beast of good breed and quality, which changed owners at
prises rather in favour of buyers. The middling and in-
ferior sorts met a slow sale. Mach and Down Calving-Cows
sold better than other stock. The Sheep nada was also flat,
prices having a downward tendency. Hones still continue
in gnat demand and young Hones were quickly disposed
of at a farther adnnoe in prices.
