MARKETS.

INDIGO SALES.—Messrs. H. W, Jewesbary and Co.
than notice the termination of these sales:—" Wo beg to
inform you that the quarterly sales of indigo which com-
menced on the 6th inst. terminated this day, and consisted
of 20,958 cheats (including 8,151 chests of old goods bought
in at, or withdrawn from, former sales, and 2,070 chests in
second hands). Soon after the close of the last July sale, a
fair demand arose for indigo both fur export and home use,
and prices were firm at sale's rates; which continued until
the arrival of information by the Indian mail, with dates
from Calcutta to August Gth, stating that considerable
damage had been done to the new crop by very heavy rain
and inundation ; this produced a speculative demand in our
market, and prices rapidly advanced for good Bengal
qualities, to about 9d. per lb. above previous rates, at winch
rise a considerable business was done, there being an im-
pression that the advance would be more than realised at
the sale just concluded ; this however has not been the case,
and the trial of a few parcels on the first day's sale at la.
per lb. advance, but which were obliged to be withdrawn,
proved that purchasers were not prepared to pay so heavy
an advance, but at about 8,1. to 9d. advance there was a dis-
position to purchase, and u the sale progressed this rate
was established and maintained, excepting for a few per-
fect and very desirable parcels, which sold somewhat higher,
and fur some defective and inferior qualities, which sold
rather lower. Kurpah has been in good demand at from 4d. to
Bd. per lb. advance, and Madras at Gd. to Bd. per lb. advance.
The great rise in value has materially checked business,
and many orders, both home and foreign, have been coun-
termanded ; importers throughout gave strong support by
withdrawing large parcels, but were firmer in their de-
mands since the amval of the Indian mail on Friday last,
after which there was more animation in the bidding' at
previous rates. Of the quantity brought forward, it is esti-
mated that 4,514 are bought in, 11,172 withdrawn, and
5,272 sold, to which may be added about 1,000 of the bought
in and withdrawn ; making the total quantity sold, say
6,200 chests, of which 4,000 chests are for export, sad 2,200
for home use and resale. The following are the quotatioaa,
as compared with the last July sale: Good and fine ship-
ping, 9d. to 10d. per lb. higher; ordinary and defective
ditto, Bd. per lb. higher; broken and consuming, Gd. to lid.
per lb. higher; Madras, good fine, 6d. to Bd. per lb. higher;
middling ordinary, 6d. per lb. higher; Yurpah, good and
fine, Bd. to 10d. per lb. higher; middling and ordinary, 4d.
to Gd. per lb. higher."

SToCIITON•ON-TECA, Oct. 20.—Owing toe large fair being
held in the neighbourhood we had an exceedingly small
supply of grain, and a limited attendance of buyers at our
market dna morning. Wheat sold at the extreme rates of
this day week, and in some instances is. per quarter advance
was obtained. For grinding Barley there is a great en-
quiry, the market being entirely clear of foreign. The
supply of home growth is not adequate to the demand.

coastwise, 300.
