MARKET&

COTTON.—Linaroot, Auctuar 27.—We have to report
a quiet, bat Arm market to-day. ?riots uncluoged. The
sales a 5,000 balm, of which 1,000 are for export sad
epoculatioa.

COTTON GOODS.—Mamamma, Auocur 27.—The
yarn and cloth marketehave been very fiat throughout the
week. On Tuesday there wee almost a suspension of Mal-
aise. owing to a mama el pesos rumours from America.
Yesterday, after the receipt of news about the operations
at Mobile, a rather better feeling prevailed, bat apprehen-
sions of an early close of the war, when ono° raised, are sot
very easily allayed, and there has not been much business
yesterday and this morning. A good many inquiries have
been made in both cloth and yarns, bat buyers are rather
unwilling to make offers. Such offers as have been made
have been in most cases 3d, to 9d. per piece for cloth below
what sellers require, and h►ve not led to op. /Woos. Where
bu►ers really are disposed to purchase they are making
offers at something nearer the present value of goods, and
at some alight declass they find themselves able to supply
their wants pretty freely. Both spinners and manufacturers
are to be found with stocks sufficiently large to make them
rather anxious, to sell, mid in such cases prices are gene-
rally rather in favour of the buyer. The aggregate business
of the week is represented generally as having been small.

WOOLLEN.—Lama, Acover 27.—There has bees a
small attendance at the Coloured Ball this morning, and
little business transacted. Plain clothe and a few fancy
coatings have bees tranderred to a moderate extent, beyond
which nothing of importance baa trenspired. The White
Ball has manifested little improvement ; hair-lists lambast
slowly moved, and walnut; and other heavy makes have
fated little encouragement. Rates keep up their firmness.

HARDWARE—BIRMINGHAM, Arererr 27.—There has
beta very little change in the state of the trade of this town
for a mouth pest, but it is steady in every departanest, and
there is a larger amount of business being done them there
has ever been at this time of the year. The factors' orders
are better, and the export trade is remarkably good, with
every prospect of increased activity in that department
towards the autumn. At this moment there is a
sprinkling of Canadian orders in hand, and with ea a
fair amount of business is being done. nut West India
trade matinees in a satisfactory state ; that of South
America is active—there ace a good number of orders in
hand for that quarter, some of which have been given out
during the week ; and as to Australia, the Cape, sad most
of the eastern markets, our traniactions are tethering. As
to the continental trade, there is • fair supply
of orders in on account of the Haase Towns.
In almost all the important branches carried
on hers business is active . • most of the rolling
mills are working full time, and the demand for material is
well sustained. The orders in for brass and copper wire
are moderate ; but as to the thou wire trade, it is briek,liall
the principal firms being full of orders. In other deport-
ment. in which • great amount of labour is employed there
is no less activity. The button trade is slack, and amongst
the jewellers, as well es others who are enpged in the
fancy trade., something of that kind is felt, but is other
respects business camerae here are in a decidedly healthy
state. In the iron trade of this district there is rather more
activity ; lately home consumers have shown more disposi-
tion to oome into the market. For merchant iron there is
a better demand. and for sheet and plate there is more in-
quiry. All who are engaged in the trade are hopeful, and
although there is undoubtedly meth of quietude there are
no indications of depression, and onnsumere could not now
place orders in South Staffordshire so well as they could
have does six weeks ago.

CORN.--CANsiroct, AUGUST 27.—We had • small
market, and prices were. anebanged from lest week. Many
of oar farmers bare finished barren, and the corn lies been

vest is now general in the county of Cumberland. The
great hulk of the grain has been reaped, and some housing
has taken place, though that is comparatively small as yet.
The reports coocerning wheat are generally of a satisfactory
kind. It appear, to be a fair average crop. Barley and
oats are better ; in some places they are very good, but in
others thin and light.
