MARKETS.

COTTON.— LIVEI7.TOOL, OCT. 29.—The market has
closed heavily without change in prices:—The sales have
been estimated at 5,000 bales, compriiinir 120 Pernans and
Moranhams at 61d. to 611.; 100 Egyptian at 71d. to 12d. ;
and 1,000 Swats at 21d. to 41d. ; 500 en speculation.

MANCHERTER, OCT. 29.—The business in cotton yarn
and cloth continues on a very limited scale, and prices aro
in favour of buyers in most descriptions of goods. Yarns
maintain their value, perhaps, bettor than cloths, but even
in these there is much irregularity in prices. The recent
hardening of the cotton market, together with the de-
creased production resulting from strikes, has had a bene-
ficial effect in some kind of yarns and cloths, especially
those produced from the better staples. Domestics are
heavy of sale, and great irregularity in prices is observable,
whilst the rates for printing cloths are somewhat better sus-
tained, though the demand is limited. Shining. of 36 and
40 inch widths are much depressed, and in some cues prices
in the absence of business are almost nominal.

WOOLLEN CLOTH.—LEEDS, Oct 29.—There has
been no change in the state of the woollen cloth market
since our last report. The trade continues depressed. The
markets have been fiat and quiet to-day; prices base a
strong tendency downwards, and are such that the manu-
facturers complain that they cannot accept them without
making considerable sacrifices ; such being the case, the
business is almost confined to these persons whose necessi-
ties oblige them to effect sales. The trade in the ware-
houses is very dull. There have been a few buyers in the
town during the week, but they have bought nothing be-
yond their immediate wants, miler goods were offered at
prices which could not fail to induce them to purchase for
stock. The accounts from the London wool sales represent
them to be going off very flatly and at receding prices
since this day week, and should the present gloomy state of
affairs continue, or rather continue to blacken and darken,
as they have done since we wrote our last report, we do
not sec the least hope of any improvement, but every chance
that prices must suffer a still further depression.

CORN.—Cataßalnon, Oar. 29.—We must again quote
a higher price fur all corn, with a good supply. Wheat,
red, 768. to 80a.; white, 82a. to 84s. per qr. Barley, 408.

very inactive sale ; prices about the same. Wheat, brown,

CARLTCLE, Ocr.29.—We had an average supply of wheat
at our market this morning, which met with a good demand
at an advance of Is. to Is. Bd. per bushel. In some cues,
parties buying for seed paid as high u 325. Orts and barley
were in good supply. Oats sold at last week's prices, but
barley advanced Gd. per bushel. Wheat, white, new,
28s. 6d. to 30s, ; oIJ, 30s. Gd. to 325. Wheat, red, new,

CoLcuarrsa, Ocr. 29.—A fair supply of wheat, barley,
and beans; peas rather scarce. Wheat must be considered
Is. dearer ; more in some Matinees, where a sale was ef-
fected. Barley supported last week's prices. Oats and
beans fully Is. dearer ; trade slow, and not much doing.

GLoresarra, Ocr. 29.-English wheat was in more
liberal supply to-day, and farmers asked 3s. to 4s. per qr.
more, but millers paid only 21. advance. Malting barley
more inquired for, snd brought Is. per qr. over last week.
Beans, peas, and Indian corn held at 2s. to 3s. per quarter
advance. Few oats on offer, which realised an improve-
ment of Is. to 2s. per qr. Imports of the week ending Oct.
29 :-Oats, 644 qrs.
GUILDFORD, OCT. 29.-There was a moderate supply of
wheat. The demand was steady, with a fair amount of

Nawcsert.z.vrox-Trint, OCT. 29. The weather this
week,with the exception of yesterday,which was a thoroughly
wet day, has been of such a character as to enable our
growers to proceed with harvest operations, and a large
quantity of grain has been **cured, but from the state of the
weather previously it may be readily conceived it has been
got up in anything but good order, whereas the major part
will not be fit for market before next spring. Independent
of this untoward circumstance, nearly the whole of the
spring sown wheat will be unsound, whilst oats and barley
have suffered to such an extent as no future weather can
repair. As the state of the old stocks abroad may prove
interesting to our correspondents, the fellowins extract
from one of the most leading ,foreign agents en Mark-
lane,will doubtless, at the present juncture, be interesting :
" It is estimated that in Danthic not more than 3,000 luta
of wheat remain, of which only a small portion is of flue
I quality; in Konigsberg about 1,000 lasts, and in Stettin
perhaps about 2,000 lasts, but of this latter quantity it is
conjectured that one-half consists of the new crop, whilst in
the lower ports and also at Hamburg and Bremen no old
stocks of consequence are held." The trade during the
present week has presented a still hardening tendency, both
wheat and flour being readily placed at a further amend-
ment of Is. per qr. and per sack respectively, whilst other
articles have been in request at a like improvement. At
mu market this morning we had a free delivery of wheat
from the growers, which consisted chiefly of the new crop,
of various condition, some wretchedly bad and quite un-
sound. At the commencement of the market, the farmers
asked most extravagant prices, which had the effect of
checking business, but eventually a go= clearance was
effected, extra samples in few instances making Is. more
money. New red sold from 365. to 80s., and white from
40s. to 842., according to quality. But few transactions
transpired from the stands ; where, however, buainees was
done, very extreme rates were made. In flour there was
rather le s passing, but prices were unchanged. Rye with-
ant alteration. Malting barley sold freely, the finest de-
scriptioas making 451. to 46e., weighing 331 be to 63j1bs.,
and other sorts in proportion. Grinding fully as dear, and
worth 415. to 425. per qr. weighing 661=. per bushel. Malt,
beans, and peas each tending upwards. With oats we were
moderately supplied by our growers, and the arrivals coast-
wise being equally so, sales were readily effected at an im-
provement of Is. per qr., anything extra commanding even
a greater advance. The arrivals this week are:—Wheat,
coastwise, 2,440 qrs. • foreign, 1,049. Rye, =unripe, 210.
Barley, coastwise, 1,031. Oats, coastwise, 13. Peas,
coastwise, 20. Beans, foreign, 2:#o. Flour, 4,045 sacks,
11 barrels.

Noitirtor, Ocr. 29.—T0-day our market was fairly sup-
plied with wheat by the farmers, and prices ruled very firm
at 3s. to 4s. per qr. above last week's rates—the condition
is generally very poor—scarcely 60Ibe. per bushel. Flour was
in good request at 2s. above last weeks rates. Barley was a
good sale, large offer, prices fully equal to last week. Beans
and peas were exceedingly limited ui supply, demand good,
and late rates were generally somewhat exceeded. Oats
were a firm supply, brisk demand, 2s. per qr. advance.

dearer than last week, as were also secondary qualities.
Old beans and now peas could not be bought on so good
terms as of late. Good oats fully Is. dearer.
Wissiscit, Ocr. 29.—We continue to be shortly sup.
pied with grain of all kinds. At to-daps market good dry
wheat is ready sale at le. to 2s. per qr. over last week's

, at our Corn Exchange to-day. The best qualities of
what must be noted 3d. to 61 dearer, barley of all qua-

WATERFORD, OCT. 29.—We have had no arrivals from
abroad this week, and coastwise only a small cargo of wiles.,
but from farmers our supplies have been on rather an in-
creased stale. The encouraging advices from the English
markets have imparted additional confidence to the trade
here, and in nearly all articles a large business has b,:en
transacted at advancing rates. Irish wheat we note dearer
by 61. to Is. per barrel. Barley is active request, at rather
more money than could be obtained on this day se'anight.
There has been a good demand for cats, and during the last
dray or two, holders have suec‘ eded in utilising an advance
of 3d. to 6d. per barrel. Foreirn wheat has been taken to a
fair extent, at an improvement cf Is. per barrel, and in
Indian corn a good basilicas has been dune, at fully former
prices. Flour saleable at an enhancement of Is. per suck.
