MARKETS.

COTTON..--LIVEnPOOI,AVOIIiT 19.—Sales in cotton
market to-day are estimated at 10,000 bales, consisting of
3.000 on speculation and 1,000 for export. They comprise
30 Pernam. and Maranham et 61d. to 7d.; 200 Bahia, 61d.
to 6jd. ; 300 Egyptian, 61d. to 711.; 500 Surat, 31,1. to .11.1.
The market closes with much firmness. American are
/d. to Id._, and Surat 1.16 d. per l'. dearer. All others
without change.
MANCILESTEIL—Avousr 19.—There has not been a
large attendance on our exchange to-day, but the large
orders given out early in the WeCIL will be sufficient to keep
spinners well employed for some weeks to conic, and the
prices both of water twist and mule are very firm. Beth
20's and 30's water are fully jd. per lb. dearer than last
week, whilst moat of the better qualities of mules, from
20's to 50's, arc Id. to Id. dearer, best 60's per lb.
higher, and the better qualities of 70's to 100's Id. to 2d.
dearer. The advance obtained on Tuesday upon printing
cloths of low qualities was sustained to-day, whilst 66 reed
36. inch printers are lid. and shirting lengths of the same
make 31 per piece higher than they were eight or ten days
ego. For 72 reed 40. inch shirtings also about 114. advance
is obtainable on last week's rates.

WOOL.—BitAtirOttD, August 'O.—Nothing has occurred
in the Wool trade worthy of note since our lest.—Bradford
()*server.

MANUFACTURES.—.BRADFORD, August 19.—Yarn.:
The spinners have evidently n bad trade. The comber,
have succeeded in getting an advance, but unless a corres-
ponding increase in the price of yarns can be established,
we fear it will not be continuous. Pieces: The business
doing is fully an average for the season, but the lowness of
the prices is much complained of.—Bradford °bury r.

HOSIERY AND LACE TRADES.—NOTTING-
HAII, August 19.—There is not anything more satis-
factory to report of the lace trade than we have stated
for the past few weeks. Some articles meet a fair sale, but
the trade at huge is flat, particularly the curtain business,
which has fallen off considerably.—The hosiery trade is very
steady, and, although not brisk, there is a healthy business
for the season, and most of the workmen are employed.
The latest accounts received from America lead us to believe
we shall have some cohsiderable orders from thence in a
short time, both for hosiery and lace, as large sales have
been effected there in our goods, and trade was brisk, with
the prospect of remaining so fur some weeks to come, when
this advice was despatched. There is no change in the price
of Yarn.—Notts Journal.

CORN.-BIRWINOItaX, ALIiVST 19.-At Gloucester
markvt, on the 14th, wheat advanced 3s. per quarter; at
Worcester, the same day, an improvement of ss. was
realised. Barley, beans, and peas, all 6d to Is. per quarter
dearer. Oats sold mote freely, at former prices. During
the present week, the sales effected in wheat have been at
scarcely so high rates as at the close of Thursday's market.
Barley, Is. per quarter higher. Beans and peas, a good
deal inquired for. Oats held for rather more money, which
can only be obtained for the finest qualities. At this day's
market, there was a large supply of wheat, for which much
higher prices were asked, but no propess could be made
at any rise, except for the finest qualities, which were Is.
per quarter higher for red, and 21. for white. Barley sold
slowly at Is. per quarter above the currency of this day
se'nnight. On oats the turn was in favour of the seller,
but we make no alteration in our quotations. Beans and
peas both scarce and dearer.
BRISTOL, Accost 19.-The weather is still unsettled
and much rain has fallen at intervals since our last. Re•
ports of the grain crops and harvest, as also of potatoes,
are very unsatisfactory, hence old wheat, both English and
foreign, is held for a further advance of 2s. to 3s. per qr.,
and flour is 2s. to 3s. per sack, and Is. Gd. to 2s. per barrel,
dearer. Good sweet barley is fully as high, whilst oats
only slowly bring previous prices. The following were
the prices :-English wheat, 46s to 525. per imperial
quarter ; foreign, white, 46e. to 525. per 480Ibs. ; ditto,
red, finest qualities, 445. to 465. per ditto ; ditto, red,
middling qualities, 41s. to 445. per ditto; ordinary gush-
ties, 381. to 40s. per ditto. English seconds flour, 335.
to 3.3 e. per sack ; foreign, 225. 641. to 235. Gd. per brl.
English and foreign grinding barley, 255. to 263. per
4001 b. Devon and Welsh feed oats, 17s. to 18e. per
imperial quarter; Irish white ditto, 171. 6d. to 18s. W.
per 3201b5.; Irish black ditto, 16s. Gd. to 17s. per impe-
rial quarter. English beans, 34, to 38s. per imperial
quarter; foreign ditto, 30s. to 325. per 4Sdlbs. The
arrivals have been :-Wheat, 6,060 qn.; eats, 720 brie..
60 qrs. ,• barley, 216 brls. ; beans, 50 qrs.; flour, 2,832
brls. The following aro the corn inspector's averages :-
Wheat, 28 qn . 401.1 d.; oats, 473 qrs., 17s. 7d. ; barley,
102 qrs., 245. 7d.; beans, 5 qrs., 38s. Bd.

DEVIZNA, August 19. There was a good supply
of Wheat at market to-day, but none of this year's
growth, and, although the weather is much more promising,
the farmers commenced by asking such very high rates as
to check business altogether, demanding from Gs. to 10e. per
qr. above last week's prices. The millers were firm in m-
aiming this advance, and the consequence was that scarcely
a sale wee made, and what business was done, was at an ad-
vance of from 2e. to 3e. per qr. only, the greater part of the
supply remaining unsold ; 265. 6d. per sack was the highest
price we heard of for red Wheat; hut 275. 64. per sack was
several times offered and refused. Barley was in some de-
mand, but there was no advance. Beane were dull, but
Oats and Peas unaltered in value. Wheeit,white, per qr.,
; beet red, 60s. to 635. ; middling, 455. to 40.. ;
inferior, 40s. to 4,55. Barley, 265. to 32e. Oat., 19e. to
icaas, 325. to 40s. Peas, 31e. to 365. Flour, fine,
365. to 39e. per sack; seconds, 34e. to Ms.

NEWBURY, August 19.—We have this day a nretty good
supply of old Wheat, but no new, having had a week of
unfavourable weather for harvest operations. The market
commenced by sellers requiring a large advance, which
checked busineu ; what little was disposed of realised 3e.
per qr. more than last week. Barley in only retail de-
mand. Oats, Beans, and I'css rather dull.
trinninot, August 19.—The supply of Wheat is small,
and with a return of fine weather the trade is dull, with
• reduction of Is, per qr. from the prices of last week. The
best price trade was Me.; the average price 475. per qr.
Spring corn is in good demand, without alteration in value.
WATERVORD, August 18.—Our prices of all kinds of
grain are fully supported this week, but as the weather has
somewhat improved since Monday, there is less excitement
in the market than there was at the close of last week.

Entrinestott, August 18.—For the season, we had a fair
supply of grain in the market. Wheat sold well, rung
upon last week's quotations to the extent of nearly 3s. per
qr. Barley also sold well—the new bringing the top prices.
Osts sold readily, but were not all disposed of. Beane
nominal. Wheat, 335. to 475. Barley, 21s. to 30s. Oats,
15s. id. to Ma. 4d. Beans, 33a. 6d. to 345.
OLAROOW. August 18.—The trade here has been less in-
fluenced by the weather than has been the case in the south,
but, since the further advance at Mark-lane on Monday,
some of the larger dealers have been more inclined to buy,
and same quantity of Wheat ehanged hands at Is. per boll
over what could have been obtained last week. Flour also
brought a similar advance. In other articles there was no
, change to notice. At this day's market there was less ac•
165.4 in the trade, and Wheat sold slowly, at the improve-
went noted above ; but there wax a fair demand for Flour,
at the advance. Oats, Barley, and Beans were each held at
previous prices, in none of which articles coy transactions
of moment transpired.

CATTLE.—Nawana, August 18.—The supply has been
quite as large as we expected, and the business done was a
good average. Priees rather flat. There ware 212 Sheep,
44 Beasts, and 100 rigs penned.
BALEOItD, August 18.—We bad a large show of stock to-
day, and, on the whole, of good quality. There was a bet-
ter demand for Beef than of late, as also of Mutton. Lamb
in still great request. We cannot note any change in the
value of my article in the trade. A fair clearance was
made.

WA KIPIELD, August 18.—At this day's market wo had a
very limited supply of fat stock, and the demand being very
good, the whole was sold off at the following prices : Beef,
.ss. 9d. to as per stone, 141 b. ; Mutton, 6d. to aid. per lb.
Then was a thin show of lean stock, and a good show of
Pigs.
