MARKETS.

COTTON.—Ltvgaroor., Ana. 4.—The market closed
with a very• heavy feeling, and compared with the prices
current last week, prices of Americans must be quoted it
per lb. less fur cotton, at sp. end under. The line 64)041
quiltitiea of Americans were steady in value, but the de-
,,;end was almost too small to admit of definite quotations.
All othZe aorta were without change. The isles have been
estimated at 6,000 bales, but nothing was done on weir-
taii.m. To addi•ion to Americans, of which between 3,000
anti 4,000 solid. da £ll4ll aiaiptista 126 remains anu
Matanhama, at 611 to 84.; 60 Bahia, at 6:d. ; 800 Egyp-
Ciao. chiefly 61,1.; 1,000 Surat, at 3,141. to Sid. ; 20 Sea
Islands, at 21. 3d. to 2s. 6d. Import since ihureilay,
20,000 bales.

WOOL—BRADFORD, Ang. 4.—There is a shade more
doing in Wools, especially bright .haired, which imparts
more confidence to the holders, who complain that they can-
not replenish stocks on terms to enable them to meet the
prices now aired by the spinners. Noils and btokes are
not plentiful.—Brodford Observer.

MANUFACTURES.— BRADFORD, Aug. 4. Yarns :
The unsettled state of the Eastern question mattes the
shippers deter their purchases, and already the quantity ex-
ported is much leas than in previous years. Ero long,
greater activity may be expected. For spools the demand
is steady, sod prices without change.—Piethe : The mer-
chants exhibit a great degree of caution, and are only buy-
ing in limited quantity, and without some relief in wools
can he obtained, higher prices or a less production must
fullow.—Bradjord Observer.

CORN.—Butxmofinm, Atm. 4.—During the present
week, the weather having improved, few transactions ate
reported in wheat, although offered at a decline of Is. to 24.
per quarter. Barley taken in limited quantities at former
prices. Oats less in request, but no lower. Good beans
realise quite as much money, and we have a fair =sump-
five demand for peas at former prices. At this day's
market there was a fair supply of English wheat, and the
sales made were at a reduction of Is. to 2s. per quarter.
We had a fair consumptive demand for barley at former
prices. Oats realised quite as much money, and fine ones
in request. Beans sold slowly at former prices. lieu un-
altered.

BitiavuL, Auo. 4.—Sales to-day have not been very
active, but the prices of last week's market are about main-
tained. Foreign wheat is of slow sale, but is held for the
late currencies. Flour is dull, but without any decline in
values. Barley experiences a fair consumptive de-
mand at the values of last week's market, and the same re-
mark will also afply to oats and brans.

Dzotzno, Aug. 4.—We bad a seasonable supply of Wheat
to-day, for which the farmers asked full prices, but the
trade ruled dull, and in order to effect sales a reduction
of about Is. a quarter had to be submitted to ;
a cous:derable quantity remaining unsold. In Barley,
Oats. Beans, and Peas, no alteration to note. Prices:
Wheat, best red, 682. to 60e. per qr. ; middling, 475. to
; inferior, 38s. to 475. Barley, 275. to 325. Oats, 20s.
to 27.. Beans, 40s. to 465. Peas, 34s to 435. Flour, fine, per
sack, 435. to 461.; seconds 411.. to 43e.

NEWARK, Aug. 3.—At our market to-day there was a
thin attendance of farmers, and Wheat, of which there was
a large quantity offering, went off very slowly, at a Tadao.'
Lion of 29. per qr. on last week's quotations. For Oats,
Beans, and other kinds of grain, the business dons was at
former rates. Averages: Wheat, white, from 69s to 624.;
red, 665. to 58s. Barley, 28s. to 32e. Oats, 22.5. to 245.
Beans, new, 441. Ro 451. per qr.

NEWBURY. Aug. 4. sae weather, and a very large
supply of Wheat, led to an exceedingly dull sale, though the
decline in prices was barely 2s. per qr. ; but some quantity
remains unsold. Barley in demand tor grinding purposes.
Oats, Beans, and Peas, fully supported late rates.
LTIBUIDGIC, Aug. 4.—The supply of fresh Wheat is very
small, and meets a dull:sale at the prices of last week ; the
average value is 555. per qr. The supply of spring Corn
also very limited. Oats, 21e. to 265. Barley, 28.. to 345.
Beans, 40e. to 455. per qr.
EDMIOROII, Aug. 3.—We had in the mulct to-day
1,094 qrs. Wheat; Barley, 182; Oats, 782; aid 28 Beans.
There were sold—Wheat, 995 qrs; Bexley, 151 qrs. ;
Oats, 682 ; and Beans, 24 qrs. As compared with
last week, Wheat was Is. down on the top, and 10d. on the
ge. Barley was 6d. up on the tip, and 2s. 6d. up on the
average. 043 were 4d. up on the top, and 4d. donn on the
average. Beaus were Is. up on the top, and Is. Id. up on
the average. We had a very large supply of Wheat to-
day, and for the season a corresponding supply of other
kinds of grain. Wheat was extremely heavy, and not-
withstandiog the rise in other markets, it receded in price
about Is. per qr. Barley went off readily at a consider-
able rise. Oats were flat, and a little back, while Beans
went up. Wheat, 48s. to 605.; Barley, 30s. 6d. to 365. ;
Oats, 21s. to 27a. ; Beans, 395. to 455.

WATEnnoan, Aug. 3.—We have again had liberal ar-
rivals ot grain since Saturday, especially of Indian Corn. The
trade, influenced by the improved amounts from tho Eng-
lish markets, hes been very firm, and full prices have been
realised fur Wheat, and on Indian Corn a alight advance
has been paid. Other articles unchanged.

CATTLE —I Aug. 3.—At market to-day there
was very little stock offering, and a trifling business was
done.

NEWARK Fran, Aug. 2.—There was a very good show
of stock, both as regards number and quality, and a great
deal of business was done. Fat stock was making a very
great price. There were 1,762 Sheep, 79 Beasts, and 139
Pigs penned in the market. The horse fair was also a good
one, horses of a superior quality, especially of the cart
kind, being plentiful. Upon the whole, it was a remark.
ably good fair. _ _ _

EDINBURGH, Aug. 3.—Tbe number of Cattle in the
market this morning was 531, or 135 less than on this
day week. The quality were still very inferior, and prices
were about 3J. per Dutch stone lower. Extreme top
price of the best Beef, 9a. current top price, Bs. 6d. ;
cunent price, 7s. 6d. to .. ; middling and inferior
sorts, from 61. 6d. to 7e. per Dutch atone. At
the close of the market a clearance was not effected.
The number of sheep and lambs in the market this
morning was 6226, or 464 less than loft week. Demand
good, but prices were a shade lower for sheep. Lambs also
in demand, and Is. a-head down. Top price of the best
mutton, 7d. ; current top price, bid ; current price, from bid.
to 6d. per lb. ; middling and inferior sorts, from 4id. to sd.

THE CORN TRADE.
Mow Mews. liturge's MostMy Circular.)

BIRMINONAX, Aug. 3.-Since we issued our last monthly
circular, there has scarcely been a day without rain, with a
lower temperature than any July since 1816 ; and the trade
having continued in a state of excitement, English Wheat
advanced 6e. per quarter; but this improvement has only
extended to the better description of foreign, chiefly Baltic
and American, whilst Danube and Black Sea qualities are
only enhanced in value 3s. to 4s. per quarter. The Wheat
crop in the aggregate will probahly.be the least productive
of any since 1816, and unless the harvest of 1854 is very
early, we may require an importation of all kinds of grain
and bread stuffs greater even than that of 1847-probably
not less than fifteen millions of quarters : but our present
prices are sufficient to induce an import to this extent, tin.
les. France should compete with us in the producing mar-
kets. In our early districts, with fine weather, reaping
will commence the beginning of next week, but will not be
general until near the end of the month. The stock of
Wheat at Gloureirter,asstated below, has more than doubled
during the mouth. Our present prices are : English, white,
6s. 6d. to las. ; red, 61. to 7s. 4d. • American, white, 7e. 2d.
to 7s. 6J. ; Danzig, 7s. fk to Be. 9d. ; Baltic,
red, 7s. to 7e. 6d.; Ghirka, 6s. 4d. to 6e. Bd. ;
Danube, 62. 101. to 6s. 2d. ; Polish Odessa, 6s. 2d.
to 6e. 65,; hard, iis.. Bd. to ss. Iod. per 62Ibs. at Bir-
miogham. There is • large bulk of straw on most of the
land planted with Baxley, and it is much laid ; still, with
fine weather from this time, it may provi a full average
crop in quantity. All descriptions have adVanced since our
lest Is. to 2a. per • qr. Our supplies of this article have
hardly kept pace with the consumption, and grinding qua-
lities sell at 265. to 275.11 for Mediterranean, 28e. to 295.
French, 30s. to 31e. Danish, per 3921 be. at Birmingham. Of
the Oat crop, particularly in Scotland and Ireland, there are
many complaints; in this part of the country the quantity
grown is not importarit. The snivel. continue to be cleared
off ex-ship at Gloucester at 21s. for black and light Irish
I white, up to 221. to 235. for heavy grey and white. The few
Dutch left at Gloucester were sold at 255. per 312 lbs. A
few more cargoes are expected, The winter Beans are in
many places blighted, and spring planted are reported to be
deficient in pods. They continue relatively very high,-
say English, 16s. 6d. to 17s. ; Egyptian, lbs. to 15s. 6d. ;
French. 14s. to 14s. 6d. ; all per 196 lbs. at Birmingham.
Peas, with favourable weather henceforward, may be a full
average crop. White sell at 16s. Gd. per 196 lbs. here.
Our et 'eke at Gloucester are: Wheat, 96,000 qrs. ; Barley,
I 20,600 ; Oats, 5,500; Beans, 6,000; against Wheat, 45,000;
Barley, 3,000 ; Oats, 8,000 ; Beans, 1,400, at the commence-
ment of the month; and our imports from beginning of the
Bear : Wheat, 18.5,571 ; Barley,' 41,612; Oats, 53,845;
ano, 12,585; against Wheat, 44,037; Barley, 36,357; Oats,
34,070; Beans, 3,260, in the same Nwriild in 1852. Several
cargoes of Indian Corn sold at 12a. Gd. to 13s. 6d. per
196 lbs. at Gloucester. Millet is held at 115. to lle. 61.
Dari, 12s. 6d. to 13e. per 196 lbs. at Gloucester. The Potato
disease appears likely to be as destructive as in any season
sine 1846.

POLITICAL PUNISHMENTS AT VENICE.—The Official
Ventre Gaulle of the 27th ult. contains a sentence pro-
nounced by the oourt-martial of that city, on twenty•sia
persons, twelve of whom ere ey)r-danried to death for the
rlon and concealment of arms ; two to six months'
imprisonment in irons; two to five and eight months of
simple arrest ; and five to periods of imprisonment varying
bagmen a year and three months. Five more having frag-
ments of arms or ammunition in their possession, have been
condemned to various periods of arrest or imprisonment,
not exceeding five months. AU these punishments, though
their legality has been acknowlddged by the military com-
mandant of Venice, have teen commuted by him as fel-
low*: Nine sentence/111 death into various periods of im-.
prisomnent, with or without irons, va...yinw from two
mouths to two years ; one into forty strokes of the basti-
node, and turn, into free pardons. The minor punishments,
except four, have been all diminished to periods not ex-
ceedini!, three months, and in one case a six months' impri-
sonment in irons bee been commuted into forty strokes of
the Imatinado.
