MARKETS.

SUGAR.—The avenge price of Sugar, the produce of
the British powieseimui in America, computed from the re-
turns made in the week ending the 30th 1852, is
245. 14d. Sugar, the produce of the Mauritius, Nov.,las. ad.;
Sugar, the produce of the Eut Indies, 20s. lb. average
price of the three foregoing descriptions of Sugar, jointly,
is 235. Sid. per cwt.

BaierciL, Dec. 3.
Stoat.—The market is still very badly supplied with
samples, and the sales since our lest report are under 300
cask, of West India, at pricks, however, fully ou a par
with our former quotations: in either descriptions of raw
sugar we are without any transactions to report. The
refined market is very dull, and lower prioes must be su►-
mitted to, in order to effect sales of importance.
Rux is decidedly firmer, with more demand. Proof
Leeward', Is. Bd.

COTTON.—Ltvassoot, Dsc. 3.—Some doubts es to the
crop reaching or exceeding three millions of bales, and the
receipt of general advices to that elf get by the Africa, with
accounts of • severe and killing frost having occurred on the
16th November, has given another turn to our market.
Before these athlete were received, we were in a drooping
and declining state, holders being prepared on all hands to'
reduce their stocks. But since that period, the same parties
have become easy and confident, the market closing with a
steady appearance, at an advance in American descrip-
tions on the quotations of Friday last, of ed. per Ib, and
from the most extreme and depressed business of last week,
of nearly Id. Yesterday wo were a little quieter, although
perfectly steady, every one looking forward with much
interest to the next accounts from America on the important
subject of the crop. 1. becomes every day more clear that,
ea the state of trade in this country is on a satisfactory foot-
ing, the cotton market will be mainly regulated by the
extent of the crop in the United States. Fair upllnds are
quoted at 6d , Mobile 61d., and Orleans, Old., 10,990
American, 4,600 Surat, 1,300 Egyptian, and 20 Femme
are reported to have been taken on speculating; and 890
American and 1,030 Surat for export. Sales for the week
47,860 bales.

LEATHER.—Lagoa, Dec. 3.—We had a full average
supply of leather at the fair yesterday, and there was a good
demand for most descriptions. Sha•ed hides, common
hides, and English butts, were a shade higher, and all other
descriptions fully maintained late prices.

CORN.—Cnetseieronn, Dee. 3.—The supply of Wheat
today at market was not equal to the demand, and all was
cleared off at an advance of 2s. on red, and Is. to 2s. on
white; old also Is. dearer; red, 38s. to 415.; white, 48e. to
525. ; old red, 48e. ; white, 53e. to 541. Barley, fine malt-
ing, still maintains its price, but secondary qualities rather
lower; fine, 32,. to Ms. ; seconds, 28s. to 31e. Beans ra-
ther lower. Other spring corn without alteration.

• ..
Liscome, Dec. 3.—With a good supply of Wheat our
market was firm at 2s. advance. Barley was in fair de-
mand at previous rates. Oats and Beans about the same
as last week ; but very little doing in either article. Wheat,
red, 40s. to 465.; white, 455. to 501. ; old, 535. Barley,
28a. to 355. Oats, 18a. to 225. Beans, new, 36e. to 37a. ;
old, 40s.

LIVERPOOL, Dec. 3.—This morning's market was tolera-
bly well attended; an advance of Id. to 2d. was realised
for all descriptions of Whew, but the millers did not pur-
chase very freely; we have, however, a continued sale for
Ireland to some extent, and a tolerable speculative inquiry,
which makes the aggregate transactions up to a fair amount.
We experience again to-day an excited inquiry for Flour,
for which many holders require extravagant rates, which
checks a further large extent of business ; still a good deal
has been done at an improvement of Is. to Is. 62. per brl. '
Barley, Malt, Beans, and Peas are steady, but without any
particular nativity. Oats and Oatmeal, on the spot, like-
wise fully support our late prices, but are rather slow of sale
than otherwise ; in the latter article, however, upwards of
30,00 loads have been sold for arrival, at 235. 9d. to
21s. 3d. per 210Ihs. cost, freight, and insurance, according
to the period of shipment. Indian Corn in store is steady
is value ; floating cargoes are more iu request, few offering,
and prices, if anything, rather tending against buyers.
Arrivals from the 30th Nov. to the god Dec., inclusive,
into Liverpool and Runcorn Wheat, 862 qrs. ; Barley,
8.5; Malt, 106; Oats, 1.687; Beans, 140; Peas, 886;
Indian Corn, 4,040; Oatmeal, 13,4.52 sacks; Flour, 40
sacks, and 2,710 barrels. Exports to Ireland: Wheat,
1,262 qrs.; Flour, 367 sacks, 1,371 barrels.

Wanivistn, Dec. 3.-Our arrivals of grain are moderate
thi. week. The quantity of new Wheat on show is still
small, and as the demand is greatly on this description,
prices have advanced fully 2,. per qr., and for old an im-
provement of Is. to 2s. is established. Heavy fine Barley
ts Is. per qr. dearer, and other sorts more free sale. Oats
and Shelling as before. Beaus steady. No alteration in
other articles. Imports during the week: Wheat,
11,868 qrs ; Barley, 2,202; Oats, 289 ; Beans, 157 ; Peas,
305; Linseed, 13; Shelling, 310 loads.
