MARKETS.

COTTON.—Liwattroox, JVLT 15.—The sales of cotton
to-day are estimated at 6,009 bales, all to the trade, in-
cluding 600 Pernam. and Maranbam, 61d. to 61,d. ; 200
Bahia, std.; 200 Egyptian, at fid.. and 250 ditto, 101 d.;
400 Surat, 3d to 44d. The imports since Thursday are
30,000 bales. The market closes tamely and steadily, prices
of all kinds being little if at all changed, and the tendency
in favour of the buyer.
MANCHESTER, JULY 15.—The elections are not inter-
fering so much with business, and there woo more disposi-
tion generally, this morning, to resume operations. Prices
were consequently somewhat steadier, but, except from the
home trade, the demand has been of a limited character.
For home consumption both yarn and cloth find a tolerable
market, with steady ;rice,. The demand for printing
cloths is very good, and quite equal to the production. The
prospect of an improved demand for domestics has also im-
proved their position, and steadier rates were maintained.
Goods and yarns suitable to the Indian and Getman mar-
kets are slow of sale, and rather weaker in price.

HOSIERY AND LACE TRADES. Norrtmo aims,
July 16.—Tbe want of a general demand for lace goods, so
long complained of, still continues without any favourable
turn, or even a prospect of one until after harvest, when
should that prove favourable here and on the continent of
Europe, (of which there is up to thiatime every appearance)
we may naturally look for an increased trade, but until
then we scarcely lisped to have anything encouraging to
report. It is also discouraging in the face of this state of
things to trod that the price of lace thread is still on the
increase, and that of hosiery is still tirm4 held at the sa-
-1 vanced price. There is not much to complain of in the
state of the hosiery business at present; as stacks are very
small the fear is lest the advanced price of yarn should in-
terfere with the making of goods which may be wanted for
the autumnal trade.—Notts Journal.

MANUFACTURES -BitADPORD, July IS.—Yarns:
Wool is too dear for the price of Yarns, which causes them
to be made to order only. Prices have an upward tendency
for delivery, and the stocks on hand are usually limited.
Pieces : There is a fair amount of business doing, but the
advance on both cotton and wonted has made the avocation
prolitless.—Bradford Observer.

WOOL—BRADFORD, July 15.—There is nothing in this
market to justify the activity still prevalent in this country,
and we fear that the prices that have been paid cannot be
realised hers, for thespinners are exceedingly cautious in
their purchases and cannot make prime cost. Noils and
broke are more estimated, from the small supply.—Brad•
ford 06server.

CORN.-BIRWINORAII, JULY 16.-During the present
week the weather has continued as fine as possible, and

Julyl3.—We had again a very small supply of
Wheat, but a pretty good attendance of buyers ; the trade
was very dull, but ultimately a clearance was made at lut
week's prices. Barley nominal. The trade in Oats was
firm ; but Beans and Peas were dull and In but little de.
mend. Prices. Wheat, white, per qr., 48s. ; best red, 42a.

Nuarnuar, July 16.—The eapply of Wheat this day very
small, but a continuance of fine weather completely checked
operations, except by needy buyers; what little wu dis-
posed of was at Is. decline. A retail trade in all descrip-
tions of spring corn.

UXBRIDGE, July 15.—There is very little doing at mar-
ket to-day; the supply is short, and most of it remains un-
sold. The average value of Wheat is 481. 6d. per qr. In
spring corn the prices are unaltered.

EDINBURGH, July 14.—We had a small supply of grain
in market to-day. Sales dull, and prices down, Wheat on
the top same, and on the average 2d. down. The top of
Barley 3s. 114., and on the average Is. up. Oats on the top
4d. down, and on the average 3d. up. Beans on the top
same, and on the average 24. down.
GLAMOOW, July 14.—Influenced by the prospect of an
abundant and early harvest, the trade, since the date of
our last report, has beau very depressed for most articles,
holders showing anxiety to sell, and buyers keeping aloof;
very few transactions were reported. This day's market
was thinly attended, and Wheat was offering with little
effect at a decline of fully 6d. per boll. American Flour
met a moderate retail sale at a reduction of Bd. per barrel,
but little progress mould be made with sacks, although
seller; would have conceded Is. on previous rates. Barley
WWI a good deal pressed at Is. to la 64. per boll under last
quotations, and Oats might again have been bought 6d.
cheaper.- Peas nominal. Beans unaltered.

be quoted. A moderate quantity or stock only unsold. 1

EDINBOILON, July 14.—The supply of cattle was mall,
