Corrog Plzen GOODS.—Since the despatch of our last
report very little business has been done, and the market
has remained very inactive. Dealers seem diiii.clined to
purchase more than sufficient for their immediate wants,
although every encouragement has been given on the part
of holders, who, since the arrival of the last overland mail,
hays shown considerable anxiety to realise. Grey shirt-
ing's, ;40 inch, of the lower descriptions, are in slight
request, while all descriptions above 71b. arc extremely
dull, and have stalO4 a rennet rectesion
value of fttuut all mina a piece. A little inquiry ex-

METALS.—A fair demand exists for English bar iron,
sheets, hoops, and wilted. Swedish fur iron meets with

quest, and have advanced in price. Spelter is in demand,
and has also improved in value. Copper, tiles, are as for•
merly quoted, and in good request; while brasiers' sheath-

3r. 9a. for Ehondeish.

lish market scarcely any purchases have been made; for the
China none whatever. Prices for nearly all descriptions
have receded. Of the new crop a small quantity of Khan-
deish has come to hand ; the quality has turned out inferior
to the list, being a good deal stained. Fur new llholera
priers opened at Rs. 95, but have since retired to td.
Oorcirawnttee likewise opened at Its. 02, but may now be
purchased at the rates we quote.
Oritim.—lint little has been doing in this market, and

CALCUTTA, JAN. 6.
Below will be found a list of sales of indigo by public
sale and private contract since the opening of the season,
comprising übout 3,000 chests from all pmts. These have
been meetly taken for continental Europe at an advance of
45r. to 55r. on last year's value. All qualities of sugar are
still scarce. About 2,000 bags of low and cuiddliag have
been sent to Australia. Saltpetre is in good request at an
advance of 2a. per maund on the finer qualities of 5 and
less refraction. Considerable shipments of rice aro in pro-
gress to Great Britain. The November buud silk is begin-
ning to appear in the market, and the parcels as they
arrive are readily taken at current rates ; this bund is
chiefly tho manufacture and property of Europeans. A
better inclination to operate iu torahs is apparent on the
part of shippers, but holders, as is usually the case with
them when such a disposition is manifested, have raised
their demands, which has had the effect of checking busi-
ness. Lac dye and shell lac continue in favour, but the
supplies of desirable qualities are limited ; 2,226 maunds of
lac dye and 2,995 shell lac have been exported to Great
Britain in the course of last month. Hides are proceeding
in large numbers to Britain at unchanged value. Linseed
is taken eateasively by the Americans, but only a very
email quantitity has gone to Great Britain, owing to the
dearness of the article, which is quoted at Re. 2-6-2-8 per
maund. Jute continues in good demand at 12-8 to 14-0 per
bale. Very little has been done in rum, and nothing in
ginger for the iritish market. Catch continues scarce, but
we may expect larger supplies when Pegue becomes settled
under British rule.

In the absence of a revival of demand from the upper
i provinces, our import market has since the departure of the
last mail remained very quiet and devoid of any remarkable
feature. Grey skirtings continue to sell freely. Bleached
skirtings are also in fair request, and the prices of the low
and middling kinds have moved up a little. In other
descriptions of cotton piece goods we have little change to
report. A shade decline is observable in several of the less
important fabrics. Mule twist continues very steady, al-
though the quantity placed has been comparatively limited.
Turkey red yarns, both British and Getman, are in
moderate inquiry, at full previous value. The demand for
orange is email. Green, alter a long period of inaction, is
in active request, and realises 15 minas for light and 12-9
minas for deeper shades. The inquiry for copper has been
small, and prices are looking down, especially the tile and
sheathing sorts. The iron market is less steady, holders
being more anxious to realise, and dealers nix disposed to
operate. The demand for opener is inconsiderable, but
holder, are firm, and looking for an advance. Tin plates
are in good demand.. Lead is in fair request at former
quotations.

The money market remains plentifully supplied, and loans
aro procurable on comparatively very easy terms, although
the rates of interest and discount, as compared with those
which rule at home, still appear high. The share market
continues firm. We quote Bank of Bengal shares at Rs.
6,050; Agra Bank, at 600; India General Steam Company,
500; and Bonded Warehouse, 245. Government securities
declined about 1 per cent., but they have again rallie 1, and
now stand at our last quotations—viz., 107 4 to 107-8 New
Fives; 13/.8 Sites ditto; 94 Company's Fours; and 93
Sicca ditto. _ _

EICUANGS has been very firm, and we may still quote
first-clue paper at 2-1, with an upward tendency.
Funtouts have also been firm, with a slight advance in
the rates for some articles. We quote saltpetre at 31. 55.,
sugar at 34. 7•. 6d. to 31. 10s., and rice at 41. to London.
lwnioo.—We give below a correct list of all the sales by
public uuction and private contract since the opening of the
season. These have been taken mostly fur coctinental
Europe. Scarcely any buyers for the English market have
u yet come forward. The delay in the arrival of the mail
has retarded business. _
