MARKETS.

COTTON.—LivaarooL, Sart. 25.—The market closed
tamely and steadily, without the least change in priors.
The sales are 5,000 bales-1,000 for ezport, sad 1,000 cm
specn:ation—comprisiag 40 Pernambuco and Maranhao,
at 60. ; 60 Bahia, at 6, t. ; 180 Egyptian, at 511. to 61. ;
sad 600 Surat, at 4d. to 414.

COTTON GOODS.—Murgdurnt., Sam 25.—80th in
the home sod foreign markets buyers are limiting their
operations, influenced no doubt by the prospect of d 16
is monil ; consequently there is very little business either
in yarn or cloth. Some kinds of cloth remain firmer than
other., each as fine 27-loch printing cloths, which have
been recently taken in good quantities for Americo, and
grey T cloths and long cloths, which have been taken for
the Levant India shirting', long cloths, and jimmies are
again a elude lower in value, but the decline is seemly of
a quotable amount, and the market is rather irregular.
Prints have lately been in fair request, but there is
now less demand. Trees ere no heavy stocks of yarns,
but the dullness of the market has again depressed prices
I slightly, which may be quoted about et per lb. 1. as then lost
Tuesday. The monthly circular of Messrs.°. Fraeer,Boo, and
Co., issued Ude day, contains the following remarks: " The
course of our market has been of a s.imewhat chequered
character since our lest, and its tone and tendency have in
the interim changed entirely. We then bad to notice a
recovery from the depreesi,n which bad been experienced
since the reaction had commeured, which set in during the
month of Jane, and our quotations were generally edges:tut
somewhat over those we gave in our previous circular. The
improvement continued for a week or two longer, and
prices were for many articles carried a little higher, those
articles takiet the lead which form the staple of the pur-
chases for the United States, with which country preps:a-
lone have been making for doing a large business in the
ensuing spring; and nest to these the articles which chi, fly
are purchased for tie Greek trade, as T cloths, loogclotbe,
sad certain claws of printing cloths. There was
also some further improvement in the prices of
dub. end 711).39 inch shirting., as also in the wider kinds, and
in low qualities 0f.6-4 jecconets, suitable for the India trade,
as the accounts from Calcutta, responding to the &deices
hem of rising prices, and of excited markets, up to the
first mail in Juno, continued favourable ; and it was only a
few days before the last mail set off from ,that important
market that the re action was heard of which we subse-
gaudy experienced. Thus some little further improve-
ment was established in prices throughout our market, and
the amount of business done was a full ge. But all
along there was more or lee of an uneasy feeling, in conse-
quence of the gradual drain of bullion from the Bank
of England, and simultaneously of rising grain mar-
kets both at home and throughout Western Europe."
Atter notieng the very close contusion Meting between a
good h , coupled with cheapness of provisioes, and a
good trade, and glancing at the fact that the wages of the
operatives both here and in Franc* and Germany have had
an upward tendency under the iefleence of emigration for
some years past, whilst the harvests hays fallen short of en
average, they attribute the more decided check the market
is now experiencing to the enhancement of discounts.
"Whilst looking, therefore (they further observe) for a some-
what crippled demand for our manufactures, and of lower-
ing prices, as the consecisence of dear food and dear money,
it is satisfactory to fled the same circumstances are directly
teatending reduced eat of production. Cotton, notwith-
standing the very light stock in the country, cannot main-
tun farmer values, but is giving very decidedly :n prices
for all grades. This is the more important just
now, as the state of the cotton market might have
been very ticklish, and have produced a very awkward
course in our market during the next few months. If this
period be bridged over, as now seems most probable, we may
probably fled the trade relieved from that anxiety which
has existed of late as to the supply and price of the raw
material, for whilst there are probably some 200.000 or
250,000 bales of last year's growth yet to come to market, it
is generally believed that the new crop will be early to
market, good in quality, and of unusual abundance. Mean.
time it is satisfactory that there are no heavy accumulations
of goods made from dear material, stocks in our market
being generally very light."

THE LINEN TRAHE.—The improved condition of
the markets &CMS the Atlantic and the better demand for
goods at home have created a desirable change in the linen
trade. Prices are certainly not yet up to the point which
I fair profit to the capitalist and fair wages to the
operative ; hut it the state of markets contains favourable
—and we should add if the food of the people becomes more
equalised to genets! mange—there is everything to hope
for in the prospective trade. Low goods are to be had at
the brown markets on very easy terms; medium linens sell
in larger lots sad at fall rates ; sad fine fabrics, say from
22 and upwards, are in steady sale, under more favourable
circumstances to holders. The vane of lawns, recently so
much depreciated, is improving and the handkerchief trade
may be noted as pretty active. That new and at present melt
important plisse of Ulster staple, the manufacture el shirt
fronts, occupies a great number of hands in getting up the'
brown article, while, in the finish, a large outlet for female'
labour has been opened. In the last-named department the
girls eogaged earn good wages, sod there is no scarcity of
employment. From foreign markets trden have increand
to a larger intent than wee anticipated. It is aid that by
the late hurricane in Mazatlan, is. Mexico, 30.0001. worth of
linen goods were sunk in the bay; at all events, goods to
this &moue' have been ordered, ,wlog, it is believed, to the
calamity. Stocks of yarns with our spinners and merchants
are heavy; rates as usual. A change, however, is expected
at an early date, es weavers, who are now out at the h
and getting better wages than they could obtain at the loom,
will soon be employed. It is considered, owing to the
enmity of cloth in the bands of manufacturers, that a fresh
impetus will be given to the trade next month, end that
many who are at present doing little will go into the busi-
ness with spirit and enterprite.—Bonnsr of Ulster.

MANUFACTURES.--Ht

SirT. 25.-

Thera has been • slightly increases. demand for light steel
mixtures, but in other goods buyers did not purchase freely
We du not bear of so much being made to order, yet trade
on tie whole maintains a tolerable degree of steadiness.

WOOLS.-.-HIIDDZIEFIRLD, SEPT. 25.—There is not so
pod a demand for wools at present, end define the week
trade has been decidedly slacker, but former prices are still
maintained.

WOOL—Lsods, Szre. 25.—There was a small attsad•
alma of merchants sodosanufootarera at market
.14 -day, sod

the amount of woods in the Coloured Clotb•hall was lly no
in oaks large. The sales were on a par with the attendance;
and spathe whole It was a decidedly flat market.

INDIGO.—The price of this article continues very firm ;
trameatime have, however, been confined to small orders
for the immediate requirements of the home trade. The
seat periodical sale is tined for the 9th maim°, and up to
date 11.681 Meets are declared, which will probably bia
ia-
ereseed to about 12,000 chests; as far as we have proceeded
with oar examination, we find a very large proportion con-
sists of low and ordinary quality. By &doles* from Cal-
cutta we ►earn that the amounts of new crop cootiaue
favourable, and that an culture of 136,000 maunds gay be
ezpeeted. The exports from the let November, 1864, to 7tb
genet, were to Great Britain, 17,274 chests; to France,
6,904; to foreign Boropt, 13; to America. 2,012; and to
the Gulf, aco., 1,626 cheats. Total, 26,859 cheats. The
stook of Guatemala indigo is much below the avenge
qaaatity, and omelets @Diego of low sad undesirable sorts.
