MARKETS.

COTTON 000D8.—Murcuzsemn, Accost 25.—The
market preserves a rather healthier tone, and for yarns of
most descriptions there is • good demand. India sad China
numbers and qualities of male and water twist an sauce,
and difficult to boy without eounding a small advises. In
sloths there his been less business for some days for India
shirting. of 40 inches wide, from a impression that they'
might become cheaper through incremed production. The
Blackburn mansfacturen, who met on Wednesday to
decide wbether their short-time arrangements should cow-
Untie boned the moan first agreed upon, adjourned the
question he another week without coming to a decision
la low Illeffemeffiesas the business rnently doze bas nearly
cleared @Male alionelations, and for long cloths and ooarse!
T elethe, alawniastarers experience a better demand,
not to
in • position improve the value
rt..goods. For printing cloths there is a
fair market, and prices are rather firmer. In re-
viewing the market during the put mouth Muses.
George Fraser, Son, and Co. observe "In our last circular
we noticed the continued depression that existed in the
market for goods and yarns, and coesequently the drooping
tendency which prices then bad. This state of things con•
tinued for some time after the date et our last circular, bat
about ten days ago an improvement began to manifest itself
in the cotton market in Liverpool, in cansequenc• of the
better prospects of the harvest, and the more favourable
WIWI from the seat of war. The market here immediately
became affected by it, • better feeling prevailed, more bust-
Rees was transacted, and spinners and manufacturers have
been enabled to obtain and establish some improvement in
prices. It is doubtful, however, how long this improvement
may last, for it te evident that our futons prospect' depend
greatly upon the manner in which our harvest is secured,
and upon the varied character which our struggle with
Russia may yet assume. Although our own harvest is still
a subject of anxious uncertainty, accounts from other
countries indicate the promise of full tuns! crops on
the continent, in the United States, and in Canada. It
mast be borne in mind, however, that the dtficiencies of
last yeses lin-rest must seriously restrict the full benefit
that otherwise would arise from the abundance of the pre-
sent in those countries alluded to, and also that our present
unrestricted Intercourse with foreign grain markets moat
cause any deficiency here in the crops to be almost equally
felt in other corn-growing countries, and their ability to
columns manufactured onions to this extent, interfered
with. At present it would appear that the &rand for
manufactured cottons is barely equal to the production,
limited as It now eartainly is to a partial working of short
time in some districts. Although the esteusi,n of the
working of 'short time' is, in the present aspect of our
market, much to be desired, and considerable efforts have
been made by some parties to certain localities to effect it,
still the want of agreement, and of apparent unity of
feting" amongst the unseal members of the manufac-
turing interest, seem to be attar to any uniformity of action,
and thus • general !wadi% Is lost for want of individual
ers-operation."

COTTON.—LtvingooL, Ao o owe 26.—The aimketelos•d
steadily, and the demand has been very general, but not for
lugs parcels. The sales were 6,000 bolos-4,500 of which
were Americana (500 for export), 230 Pernambuco and
Manuibans, 611. to eta. ; we Egyptian, 613. to 7d ; 1,000
Sant, 43. to 41d. ; and 60 Sea Islands, at I Id. to 111 d. per
lb. 10,000 bales have btu; imported since Thursday.

1 WOOL—Mama, AV•OST 25.—1 n our market to-day
there were in wool some advances over the prices of last
Baterda7. The trade in yin* goods was tolerably brisk ;
sad such wee also the ease with worsted goods. Yarns
were doll.

WOOLLEN CLOTS.—Lzans, Aroosv 25.—We have
no material change to report in the woollen cloth market.,
which, on the whole, continue to exhibit • firm tone, There
wee a good attendance of buyer in the Coloured Cloth-hall
this morning. Much activity prevailed throughout the
market, and a considerable business has been transacted in
all kind. of seasonable goods. no white cloth market haa
been rather flat. Very few buyers were present, and the
transactions have been on a limited scale. This may be
accounted for, to some extent, by the exhausted state of the
stock of cloth in the white market, which presents very
little choice to perches* from.

HARDWARE. litnwlrtowur, Arousr 25.—Tirade
ben continuessteedily to improve; the country orders are
better, and the tortilla trade ie reviving ; there us few
orders weekly from the Milted States, but the bulk will not
come to hand for eve or six weeks at ;cast. The iron trade
is tolerably brisk, tke orders for sheets and plates propos-
&ratio& The wilier' in the neighbourhood of Dudley have
given notice requiring an advaaos in their wages of Is. a
tea, sad the awns getters a rise of ed. a day. Calla sad

mersetal aro .0 sigrog, tbg he avoid the risk of • strike, t►e

CORN.—CAltaltlDOrt, Avo. 26.—We Laci a brisk mar-
ket for 'beat, wbieb was takes off at as au :uoiso of 2s. to
31. over lest week's prima. Some samples of new barley and

and prises the same as last week.

•
CoLcammita, Auo. 24.—The supply of wheat at our
taaskat to-day was very short, and from le. to 2e. dearer.
Beane, pew sad barley, were not in demand ; and prices
mama ally came all last +ask.

OLOVCRSTIR, AVG. 25.-Doting the week the weather
has been rather unsettled; farmers, influenced by the un-
favourable result of thrashing and doubtful weather, held
their gantries for more money. Millers were keen buyers
at 4s. advance on Eaglisb, and 2s. to 31. on foreign wheat.
Grinding men on the advaace, and holders raise their limits.
The business in cab wee not large' but greater 111111t16
than of late was generally evinced. Imports for the weak
todinG Aug. 26:-Wheat, 666 oats, 675.
GUILDFORD, Atm. 25.-The quantity of old wheat at
sallies wee unusually large. There was much activity in
the demand, a good clearance being made at an advance of
Is to 2s. Some samples of new red sold from 725. to 795.
whits ditto, 806. There was none of the latter fine In
quality. Wheat, 68s. to 84s. Barley, 331. to 365. Oats,
295. to 325. New peas, 40s. to 425.
HERTFORD, Aro. 25.-Tha market to-day fairly sup.
plied with old wheat; trade for the best parcels better,
fully Is. per load. We had few parcels of new wheat at
market ; the quality not good. Prices from 445. to 48s. per
load. Barley sold at former prime. Oats a dull trade.
Peas and beans sold at last week's prices. Wheat, 425.
to 48s. per load. Barley, 308. to 86s. per qr. Oats 245.
to 1325. Peas, 25e. to 28s. per load. Beans, 28s. to 31a.
NORWICR, Ace. 25.-We were only tolerably supplied
with wheat, and prime advanced full si. per qr. on the rates
of this sennight, and this mostly in consequence of the
many resorts of serious deficiency in the present crop. We
are in the midst of harvest operations, there is a fair bulk
and quantity of shocks, bat it is p Ey averred that the
quantity and quality is affected. Flour trade very
Millers were indispond to sell. Barley trade acme. Beans
and peas, too little to quote, either pries or variation in
price. Oats were in demand at similar rates to last week. A
few parcels of new have found their way to market, and are
of good condition and quality.-Wheat, white, 76e. to 80s.
per quarter; red, 725. to 765. Beans, 48s. to 52i. Peas,
445. to 465. Oats, 365. to 325. Flour, f.o.b , good house-
hold, 535. per sack of 2801 be., purchasers finding sacks and
claiming one month's credit.

NIWCASTLII-UPON-TYNZ, ADO. 25.—With the exception
of Thursday, when we had a heavy fall of rain, which con-
tinued throughout the night, accompanied with a high wind,
the weather this week has been favourable for maturing the;
crops, and although we have complaints in this locality of,
the ears being detective, yet still it would be premature to
pans any decisive opinion as to the probable deficiency, which
can only be determined when submitted to the test of thrash.
ing ; but this we may affirm, that with respect to the country
generally the yield must fall far short of that of last year.
With respect to the Continent, however, there can be no
question of a very serious deficiency entering there, the feet
having been ascertained from the best of all sts—vis,
thrashing; one very influential gentleman writes, there has
not been such a bad crop, whether as respects quality or
yield, for the last forty years ; how far, however, America
can counterbalance the evil, remains hereafter to be dove-
loped. The trade daring the present week has been char s&
terised by inactivity, but this was more especially so in the '
early part of the week, when Isles of wheat could only be
promoted by submitting to a reduction of ls. per qr.; es the
week advanced, however, rather more disposition was mani-
fested to op , when the decline of Tuesday was recovered.
In other cortices little was done; although as regards
oats the torn was slightly in favour of the seller.
At our market, this morning, we bad a moderate show of
wheat from the growers, and having little fresh offering
from the coast, this circumstance, combined with most of
the foreign wheats being withdrawn, produced a lively
feeling in the trade, and a good clearance of farmers' and
South Country samples was effected at an advance of fully
2s. per qe., the best South Country yellow commanding
freely 80s weighing 821 be., but made 831Iss. per bushel ;
and Scowl: white the same money, extra 824. In foreign
there was also more passing, choice Danish making 75a,
and superior Swedish red, 80s. per qr. Flour must be
written Ice per sack higher, nod at least 2s. to 3a. upon the
depressed rates accepted daring the week. In rye little
stirring. Grinding barley more inquired for, and the same
remarks will apply to flue meson-made malt. la beans sad
peas we note little change. With oats we were mere spa
ringly supplied by our growers. Fine cora, whether Scotch
or native growth, sold more freely, at rather over previous
rates. The arrivals this week are—Wheat, coastwise, 2,221;
foreign, 815; 1391-ley, torsi's, 105; malt, coastwise, 60;
oats. coastwise, 891; foreign, 715 ; pea., foreign, 35. Flour,
1,756 asks. Indian core Roar, 64 sacks.

PArzanonouon, Ano. 25 —We had bat a mall supply
of old wheat here to-day, and prices advanced about 3,. per
qr. There were several samples of the new crop. fine
aid in good condition, weighing 63 lbs. to 65 lbs. per
bushel, and prices varied from 735. to 761. per qr., weighing
63 lbs. per bathe'. AU spring corn nominally as last week.
RIL&DINO Auo. 25.—The supply of both old and new
wheat was gibed, the former brisk in demised at 2s. per qv
advance. Old wheat, 81e. • new, 635. to 85a. per qr. Barley
dull at Is. per qr. dearer. 'Oats rather better than of late;
new, 26e. to 28s. per qr. Beans and peas nominal.
Wisszca, Avo. 25.—Our farmers being generally en-
gaged in the harvest field we have In consequence quite a
small market here to•day. Wheat sells at 2s. to 3e. per qr.
more than last week, and the small quantity Is freely taken.
Bpring corn 'weltered. The weather is highly favourable
for the country, end cutting is general is this district.
Pekes to the growers:—Wheat, old, 70e. to 82s. per v.
Oats, Is. 2d. to Is. 3d. per stone. Beans, 475. to 49e.

Wo•corions, Auo 26.—There was • small attendants
land short supply of wheat at 'notice, to day, which mid
readily at an improve's, nt of 2s. to 3s. per qr. Barley 6d.
to Is. per qr. d . Oats sold slowly at previous rates. We
have very little inquiry for beans or peas, and the value of
both was nominally unaltered.

YOWL. AVG. M.—The weather during this week, al.
though cloudy, has on the whole been fine, and our farmers
are generally busy with harvest work. This show of wheat
to-day was small, and owing ro continued unfavourable
reports of the wheat crop, an Bevan.* of 29. to 39. per qr.
had to be paid. In other articles there was no material
alteration. The following are the present prices of
grain at our market this day:—Wheat, whits, 78s. to
82s. per imperial qr. ; red, 745. to 78e. Barley, grinding,
35.. Beans, 48s. to Me. Bye, 449. Malt, 70s. V. 72a.
Oats, Is. 34. to is. 4d. per stone of 14th.. Flour, 651. to
574. per sack of 2801 b..

WATERFORD, Atm. 25.—The weather in the 'fitly part
of the week was all that could be desired for the crops, but
during the last three days • great deal of rain has fallen,
and eompletely put a stop to harvest operations. Noche:ors
has been laid, and without • speedy change, a large portion
of the outstanding crops will be gathered in very poor con
claim. Our arrivals of grain have been rather liberal sines
this day se'nnight, end our market in consequence has ruled
dull for most articles. Wheat, foreign, has been taken
'pricey at last Saturday's quotations. Of new
I Irish a few sampler have already been brought
to market, showing • great range in quality.
The prices realised were fr.m 325. to 401. per barrel.
! Raley Las met oily a limited inquiry at about firmer
rates. Oat., of which the ausntiry on offer is very small,
have sold eowly, at • reduction of 3d. per barrel on old. One
or two parcels of new tawny were taken at 13s. 3J. to 13s. Bd.
per barrel. Inaian Corn: The demoted for this article coo•
bones most trifling, and prices bare further given wail 6d.
per barrel. Fiour unaltered iu value. Reports of the ro-
tot* crop this week have been very conflicting, and it is still
dillcult to say what amount of injury ha, been don* to the
crop. Imports this weak:—Wheat, 2,861 qrs..; Indian corn,
3,448; ff.iur, 25 nets. Exports this week :—Oats, 3,360
barrels; fl .nr, 481 sacks; Indian corn, 160 barrels; oat-
meal, 6 a.m.

DUBLIN, Avocet 24.—We have had very uncertain,
showery weather since yesterday morning. Our corn
inirket to-day, 'hough poorly supplied with old grain,
was very dull for every description at the currencies of
Tuesday last. The new wheat, bete' oats, and ram were
taken at about the same prices as on Tuesday. Oats were,
perhaps, a chide lower. Wheat, new white, 42a. to 441. ;
sew red, 365. to 321. ; barley. 17s. to 20s. ; oats, new, 16s.
to 15s. 6d.; rapeseed, 36a. to 38s.

Coss, AUGUST 25.—(8y English and Irish Mssnetie
Telegraph.)—Fifty barrels of wbite wheat, 341. to 40..; 12
barrels of red wheat, 325. to 18s. ; 19 barrels of bore, 164. 3d. ;
243 barmls of oats, 13s. to 15s. 81.; 37 barrels of old oats,
15s. Bd. to 17s. bd. ; bay, farmers', 40r. to 5314 dealers',
60s. ; straw, farmers', 291. to 40s. ; clover, 61d. to N.; old
straw, 555.

LIMBRICA, AUGUST 26.—(8y English and Irish Meg
nutty Telegraph.)—There have been no Jetports this
week. About 60 barrels.( new whilst and oa.s appeared at
market to-day The condition not good. There is more
fi•maeu evinced by holders of wheat. Although the butters'
doing is very limited the value is fully maintained, end
with an upward tendency. Holders of Indian COTS have In
many instances withdrawn their sampler, and the
impression is that the value will he highs,. Flour difficult
cf sale. Coates meals are little in demand at previous rats
Throughout the week the weather has been very unfavour-
able on the whole; much rain has fallen, accompanied with
bevy gales of wind and a tough winterish temperature.

BUTTER.—Coax, ADOURT 25.—(8y English and
Irish 14.gaetio Telteraph.)—Firsts, 236, 99a.; *donde,
