MARKET 8.

00170N.—Ltvrarom, Anomie 14.—We have had
a very animated market to-day, and an advance of id. per
lb. in prime. The mks are 10,000 bales, including 1,340
Amencan, 164 d. to 20d. ; 7,000 Burst, 121 d. to 15F; ;
400 'Es:tian, 16d. to 21d. ; 530 Pension, 19d. to 19
il 500 ,17f4. to 181 d. ; 230 Maranham, 191 d.—of w
7,000 are for speculation and export. The week's import
is 3,5913 bales.

WOOL AND WORSTED.—BRI.DrOItD, Austin 14.
Spinner' are generally well supplied with wool, and
only very sparingly to-day. There is an effort to advance
n
the rates of bright-haired wools, but the result is apparently
rather to check business. Ihe finer classes of wool are firm
in price. There is a good business in worsted yarns, both
for home and export. Two-folds still continue in good
demand. There is also a good demand for 3rls and other
descriptions suitable for exportation. We cannot report'
much change in the piece trade. There has been average
attendance of buyers, but transactions are few and small
Some manufacturers, evidently full of orders and indifferent
about taking any more for the present, issue nominally
higher lista ; otherwise prices are not dearer than last week.
large orders have arrived from abroad during the week.

HOSIERY AND LACE.—Norrntorisw, Artusr 14.—
There hag been a very fair business done far all kinds
of nets during the last week. Though the season is
nearly over for the home markets, many orders
have been placed for plain foundation nets, but
the advancing prices of yarns operates as • seri-
ous check to any extensive business being done. A
few German buyers have been in the town and small
parcels of goods have been despatched to New York,
India, and other foreign parts ; so that on the whole,
for the time of the year and the uncertainty of prices,
there are at present no substantial causes for com-
plaint. The prospects for winter. however, are not so
hopeful as they once appeared. Business in the hosiery
trade generally hu been flat, but some large houses have
done better than their neighbours, and it seems evident,
on comparing the oonilicting accounts, that tbe different
branches are in the same condition as they have been for
several weeks past, goods being generally made to order.
The Board of Trade returns for the month and six months
ending June present us with a by no means unfavour-
able picture of the condition of our local manufactures,
&c. As regards lace, we Rod the exports, as compared
with the same periods of 1861 and 1860, have been as
follows:

1886 1861. 1862
Month £24,882 i 18,776 Gams
Six Mouths 168,904 134.880 212,086
The increased value of lace sent abroad in June of the
present year was 24.462/. over the same month of 1861,
and 23,536/. over 1860. For the six months, the increase
of the present year over 1861 is 98,806/., and over 1860,
73,102/. Whether this increase in the trade is the result
of a legitimate demand, or whether it results from over-
speculation, remains to be seen ; and it will be well for
the mercantile community to act with caution, and thus
avoid the serious evils which always follows over-shipments.
As, however, during the last two or three years orders
from abroad have been very limited, no doubt stocks in
the colonies and foreign countries; have been considerably
reduced, and the present increase of trade may be only
the effect of this cause. In the !twisty trade the quantity
of goods exported have been as follows :

Stockings—Dozen pairs.
1960. 1861.
Month
Six Months
The value of hosiery exported during the same periods
has been as follows :
Month. 1860. 1961. 1862.
Hosiery—Cotton Stockings .. L23,0:83 L 13,657 1.30,317

„ Other kinds

Total 040,82.5 £234,111 L 123,680
It thus mallet there has been a falling off the
exporto during the tint six months of the pre-
sent year of 6, as compared with 1861, sod 12,1364 as
compared with 1860. The month of June, however, was
an active one in the trade, for it shows an increase in the
shipments of hosiery of 6497 over the same month of 1861.
As might he expected. the condition of the ootton market
has affected the price of hosiery, for we find that whereas
the average price of each dozen pain of stockings exported
in 1860 was ss. 40., and in 1861 Is. 6d., during the present
year it has been ss. 90., and a further advanoe may be
looked for. Altogether the position of the trade is one of
great uncertainty, and must remain so, until the great in-
ternecine struggle across the Atlantic has been brought to a
sloe.—Ncaingksini Journal.
OORN. Bran:wow* Acraurr 14. At this day's
market there was a limited supply of Eaglish wheat, which
realised eesrly last week's rats. &Hay tending &wa-
ver& Oa* bear, aad peas gotta as dear.

Avoriee 14.—Oar market to-day wee better
supplied with wheat than it has beep for the last two er
three weeks, and there was a fair sale at the prices of last
weak. Harvest opeestiooe in the early districts proceed but
slowly, the weather being dull and harry. In oar own
immediate neighbourhood reaping will not be general until
some time neat week. There are serious complaint; of
blight in the early wheats. Best red wheat, 29a. to :On.
mooed ditto, 225. to 275. ; inferior ditto, 18s. to 21..
Berley, 30s. 6d. Oats, 21s. to 30a. Beans, 21s. to 240.
Pees, 18s. to 21s. Old floe flour, dia. to 48s. ; other flour
395. to 42..

MANCHISTZA, AUGUST 14.—Our market this rooming
wan tolerably well atteoded. English wheat there wei
scarcely any offering ; choice qualities of A tuerican main.
tamed the currency of this day eel:might, but secondary anl
inferior were Id. to 2d. per 100118. lower. Flow was it
moderate demand without change in value. Oats were w.
per 451b5., end oatmeal 6d. per load dearer. Egyptian ben,„
barely maintained previous rake, while Indian corn on the
ocelatry was the turn dune.

NEWARK. Atom 13.—Wheat was in etnall supply, load
millers who appeared to be short of stock being madly
buyers at an advance of L. per qr. ; a few samples of the
new be rop showing, but no Mumma pacing. Braley, oats,
as firm.

NZWISMIT, AUGUST it—We have had this day a rather
increased supply of wheat, and there being no demand but
of a local character, the trade ruled dull at fully late rates.
The reports of the coming crop are more unfavourable.
Bat little doing in barley. Oats, beans, and peas without
change.

trialunur, AUGUST 14.—The weather le again unfarour•
able for harvest, and but little wheat has been carried is
thin neighbourhood. Two panels of new wheat were sold
today, both very indifferent in quality and coedit's*. The
trade generally is better, but prices not higher.

Entimmunt, Ammer 13.—Arrivals large. Fanners' sup.
plies were large
to-day. There was heavy rain peter:lay ;
today is fair but dull. Scotch wheat was in good demand,
and L. per qr. dearer. The large supply of foreign caused
buyers to bold off in the hopes of forcing down price., but
on the business done former rates were obtainable. Seek!'
barley nominal, little being offered ; there was a good de-
mand for foreign at the extreme rates of last week. Scold
oats slow, owing to the high prices asked, and a large moo.
tity remained unsold; foreign not so free of male, and rather
cheaper. Beane, peas, and dour much the same.
GL. Roow, Almon 13.—The attendance at this day's
market was rather limited, sad business in wheat and flour
wee confined to retail buyers, at previous quotations. For
cats and oatmeal, farmer prises ware in some asses ex•
needed, as well as for barley, puma, and Indian corn.
Beans without change.

CATTLE.—Normottaet, Ammer 13. —The market
today was scantily:supplied with beasts of best quality ; the
demand was slow, and there ws an advanoe en price, the
beet realising Bs. ; inferior, 6s. 16 7s. A small supply of
cheep, and prices somewhat higher ; for the best small the
demand was slow best made Tit; inferior, 64d. to 7d.
A large supply of iambs, chiefly from Ireland, and trade
very slow, at 20a. to 345. each. A poor supply of calves,
and a slow demand at 6d. to 6iel. par lb. Beet small
porketa were much inquired for, at an advances in price;
the beet small made 7s. per stone ; bacon, 6e. 6d. to 6.. :Id.

1311MINGRAN, AUGOST 14.—We received a fair supply of
bouts at this day's market, the demand eteady at a shade
lower prices. and lambs a good supply. Prime were
in fair request at prime ; inferior a slow male with lower
07Oahe were a moderate supply, late quotations
realised. Fat pigs, a large supply. Trade heavy;
lower peioes submitted to.

CHEESE—Sautimmr, Annum 14. —Our market, which
was held to-day, was but moderately supplied with stack,
but the quality generally was tolerably good. There was •
fair spnukling of buyers and dealers in attendance ; sad,
though the trade was slack, a fair amount of business was
tranmeted, most of the beet samples having changed Me&
Pries, altogether had a slight downward tendency, AM&
averaged as follows :—Skims, 18a. to 265. ; half cowards,
