AMERICAN MARKEI S.

New YORK, OCT. 29.
We are tumble to quote any material improvement in the
market for money, so far u it affects mercantile paper and
time negotiation on Railway securities. The former, tries
strictly prime, is done at 12 per cent., the lower grades
meeting little eaconragement, even at more extravagant
rates.

• • The reptd rise in the stock exchange since Monday was
partially checked, and the market closed dull, and at a
decline of 1 to 1} per cent. on railroads, both speculative
and investment, while the coal stocks continued moderately
firm.

Excuarron.—We noticed oily a moicrate business;
sterling is fiat, And for continental the demand is very
limited at our quotations. We quote bills on Loudon 9to
per cent. prem.; Paris, &c., f. 0.111 to t. 6.12 t, 60 days,
and 1. 5.07} to f. 5.091 short sight; Antwerp, f. 5.10 to
1.5.16} ; Amsterdam, ill to ill ; Hamburg, 36} to 361 ;
Bremen, 80} to 801; Frankfort, 411; and 1 haters, 721.

COTTON.—There has been an active demard, at gradually
improving prices, and the market closes firmly at an ad-
vance of 4t04 of a cent per lb. The sales include 3,135
bales for export. 2,430 for home use, and 1,678 on specula-
tion; together, 7,243 bales.

FLova AND MEAL.—The flour market opened heavily on
Wednesday, owia to increased receipts, the high rates of
freight, and difficulty in effecting shipments, especially to
Essttrn ports, but on Thursday, after the receipt of the
Niagara's telegraphic favourable accounts, some advance
was established, and yesterday there was an increased de-
mand, chiefly for export, the market closing firmly at our
quotations, which show an advance of 61,C. to 121 c. since
Tuesday last. The arrivals bare been large, but as a Call•
siderable portion was sold previously, the stock has not
accumulated. Canada is more freely offered, and prices are
121 c. to 25c. lower, with a moderate inquiry for the
British Provinces—the sales are 3,100 bbls, at 6 dole. 621 c.
to 6 dole. 75e. in bond, closing heavily at the inside price. The
Southern flour with a fsir demand and moderate supply,
has advanced 61 to 12i cents. with sales of 2,700 bbla., the
market closing steadily at 0,811 dots to 6,931 dole. for mixed
to straight brands Alexandria, Baltimore, and Georgetown,
7 dole. to 7,121 dole. for favourite, and 7,14 dole. to 7,50
doll. for fancy. Rye flour is scarce and firm, with sales of
200 bbls. at 4.621 dole. to 4,75 dole. for tine. Buckwheat
flour is mere plenty, but with an active demand, sales are
making at 2 dole. to 2.23 doll. per 100 lb. Corn meal is
plenty and scarcely so firm—the sales are 400 lb,. Jersey
at 4,12} dole.; brandywine is scarce and nominally as lest
quoted.

GlAIN.—The wheat market opened scarcely so firm on
Weinesday, and on the common descriptions, which arc
plenty, some decline was submittal to, while prime samples
which are scarce, are supported. Since the Niagara's tele-
graphic accounts came to hand, an increased demand has
been manifested, and prices are one to four cents. higher
than on Tuesday last, chiefly on prime western and
southern, the Market closing firmly at quotations—sales,
32,500 bushels common to prime white Canada, 1 dol. 40e.
to 1 dol. 50e , including a parcel of very inferior at 1 dol.
25e. in bond; 47,600 common to prime white Genesee, 1
dol. 53c. to 1 del. 60c. ; 33,900 fair to 'prime white Michi-
gan, 1 dol. 48e. to 1 dol. 57e. • 3,900 handsome white Upper
; Lake, 1 dol. 51e. 41,500 ordinary to prime white Ohio, 1
dol. 40c. to 1 dol. 480. ; 2,000 mixed do., 1 dol. 41c. ; 26,100
ordinary to prime white Southern, 1 dot. 40c. to 1 dol. 50c.;
and 14,200 red southern, 1,39 dole. to 1,43 dole. Rye con-
tinues firm, with a good demand—the sales are 9,500
bushels at 921 cents., cash, and 93 teats, GO days. Barley
is in fair demand, with sales of 3,400 bushels good mixed,
and 4,000 good two-rowed at 82 cents. Oats are dull, but
with a moderate supply prices are firmly supported.
Southern and Pennsylvania have slightly advanced, but
other kinds are without material change. Corn has con-
tinued in fair demand for export, end the east at steady
prices—the sales are 70,000 bushels within our range,
chiefly mixed western and mixed southern, at 76 to 77
cents. afloat and delivered.

Fsintowrs, previous to the arrival of the steamer, were
dull ; but the market, since her advices were received (by
telegraph), has become firmer again. To France there has
been less going, owing to the high rates demanded. There
is a demand for vessels, but owners ask high prices. To
California there is less offering, but the number of vessels
loading being sm►ll, rates are sustained. To Liverpool we
notice engagements of 8.5,000 bushels of wheat and 15,000
of corn, at 131. to 131 d.
