MARKETS.

COTTON. LivattrooL, Auo. 9. The market was
fairly supplied, and prices firm at last week's rates. The
sale. have been estimated at 7,000 bales. comprising .5,000
American- (exporter, taking 1,500), 50 Pernams and Mae
runhains, hid • 390 Egyptians, 61d. to 10d ; 1,500 Surat',
31d. to 41(1. (700 for export).
IIf•NCHESTER, AVG. 9.—The market for Cotton yarns
and cloths has shown some improvement, both as regards
busiuess and prices. Commercial men hesitate to place much
credence in the more favourable intelligence from Vienna,
but still confidence improved sufficiently to induce the
holders of orders which have been in accumulation, and
somewhat inconveniently postponed, to seek to place them,
and prices have advanced slightly under the demand thus
occasioned in yarns—in some cues as much as kt. to Id. per
lb. over the rates at which the same descriptions of twist
could have been bought last week. There has not been a
large business, but a fair ►verage is reported, both on home
and foreign account. Ic cloths, prices have not moved, but
there has been an improvement of demand, the home trade
having received an impulse from the favourable change in
the weather. The inquiry from printers has been very
good, and 32 inch (printing) jacconets, fur Glasgow, have
been in considerable request. The demand has extended to
most kinds of fabrics, except 40-inch India shirting', which
are, perhaps, the least saleable things in the market.
WOOLLEN CLOT H.—LEEns, Auer. 9.—We have had a
rather Hatter market to•day, especially in the White Cloth
Hall, where the business was of a very indifferent character ;
but in the Coloured Hall there was more activity, but not a
good market. Stocks are so small that it would be difficult
to have a really active and goad market. Prices are looking
up since there is a prospect of a peaceful termination of the
Eastern question.

WOOL.—HUDDERSFIELD, Aug. 9. The public sales
in London having reached the last week, it is now quite
apparent that the price of Wools is fixed for sonic time, and
manufacturers are of course buying more freely.

MANUFACTURES.—HVDDIRSMILD, Aug. 9.—To-
day's market was well supplied with fancy goods of season-
able patterns, which was mostly cleared in good time. A
small quantity of heavy goods (new designs), and adapted
for the fell trade, was also readily moved. Ou the whole the
market has shown a more animated appearance to-day than
for the last few weeks.

CORN.—IIvLL, Aug. 9.—We have at last to report a
week of fine weather, under the influence of which our
growing crop of Wheat is more favourably reported of.
Still we shall be ten to fourteen days later than last year,
and cannot have either the quality or condition. Of Po-
tatoes we regret to lay the accounts do not improve, and the
extent of disease is likely to be serious. The trade of the
week has been slow, and to effect sales a decline has had to
be submitted to. Today our farmer brought a mode-
rate supply of Wheat, and which, owing to the
weather, and dull reports from Mar -lane, was only sold
at a decline of 2s. to 3s. upon the rates current last Tutu-
' day, but the market was a very irregular one, and the actual
business exceedingly limited. Foreign Wheat neglected,
and where sales were made we note a reduction of 2s. per
qr. upon all qualities. The bulk of the present import
goes to warehouse, under the impression that better prices
will prevail when the character of the present crop becomes
more developed. We have an extensive demand for grind-
ing Barle_y, and good quality is scarce. We note no altera-
tion in Beans : the small import is of fine quality from
Konigsberg. In Peas nothing doing. Oats are 6d. per qr.
lower. Indian Corn meets free salo at 32e. to
34. Dari is in brisk demand at 28s. to 295. Ame-
rican barrel Flour without alteration. There is a
choice parcel of Danteic now on the market. The Lin-
seed market is well supported, and Cakes have met an ex-
tensive sale, our crushers being for the present delivery al-
most cleared oat. Nothing doing in Rapeseed. The high
price at which this article is stated abroad frightens our
crushers. Rape Cakes 6s. per ton dearer. Bones in good
demand. Imports: Wheat, 7,463 qrs. ; Barley, 2,948 ; Oats,
20:1; Beans, 311 ; Peas, 26; Linseed, 3,691; Rapesed, 23;
Oil Cakes, 13 tons; Bones, 10.

Linos, Aug. 9.—We have only a limited supply of
grabs for this day's market. A continuance of fine
weather has its usual effect upon buyers •, and although
wheat is offered at • decline of 2s. per qr. from last week's
rates, scarcely • transaction results. Barley nominal.
Beans slow sale. Oats and other articles as before. Arrived
this week :—Wheat qrs. 2,988; Oats, 423 ; Basle", 186;
Beans, 323 ; Malt, 366; kapeseed, 680 ; Linseed, 9t2.

. . .
LIVERPOOL, Aug. 9.—At this morning's market there
was a fair attendance of town and country dealers, who
bought sparingly of wheat, at a decline since Tuesday of
fully 3d. per 70Ibs. Flour of fine quality was in good de-
mand, and a considerable quantity was taken on specula-
tion, at a reduction of Is. to le 3d. per barrel, Philadelphia
and Baltimore being saleable at 275. to 275. 3d., and Wes-
tern Canal at 261. 6d. Sack flour was neglected, and rather,
lower. Oats and oatmeal met a slow sole, at late rates.
Barley, beans, and peas without change in value. Indian
corn on the spot was in moderate request for feeding pur-
poses, and prices were hilly suppsrtecl ; cargoes afloat were
held at extreme rates, but the demand was less active than
of late. Arrivals into Liverpool and Runcorn from the 2nd
to the Bth August, inclusive:—Wheat, 8,873 qrs.; Barley,
252; Malt, 856; Oats, 2,083; Beans, 1,653; Indian Corn,
11,993 ; Oatmeal, 2,166 sacks ; Flour, 2,476 sacks ; 4,606 brls.
Exports to Ireland :—lndian Corn, 866 qrs. ; Indian Corn
Meal, 171 bib.; Oatmeal, 157 sacks; Flour, 1,948 sacks;
1,040 brls.

LYNN, Aug. 9.—There hu been a large supply of Wheat
at market to-day and but little business done at a decline of
3s. to 41. per qr. Several samples of new Wheat shown (not
for sale this week) quality very good.
NEWCLBTLE, Aug. 9.—The weather is now everything
that could be wished, a continuance of which will mate-
rially improve our harvest prospects. At our market this
morning we had a moderate show of Wheat from the
growers, and, although we had no pressure from any other
quarter, the unfavourable report from Mark-lane in-
duced great caution on the part of our buyers, and, not-
withstanding a reduction of Is. to 2s. per qr. was sub-
mitted to en Wheat, only a moderate business resulted.
For good runs of Norfolk red, 64e. 6d. per qr. of 63 lbs., was
accepted, whilst very fair Pomeranian red was sold at 661.
per qr. made same weight. Flour in slow requtet, and may
be again written rather cheaper. In Bye little stirring.
Grinding Barley in good request at 335. to 345., weighed
56 lbs. per bushel, whilst for Malt there are numerous en-
quiries. In Beans or Peas no change. Oats the turn
cheaper.

tiliasatitv, Aug. 9.—At our market this morning we
had a good supply of grain, and a tolerably large attend-
ance of farmers and dealers. The Wheat trade was in a
sluggish state, and a decline of from 2s. to 3s. per qr. was
submitted to ; but even at this redaction millers were not
inclined to buy, except from hand to mouth. In
other kinds of grain the business was merely nominal.
The weather during the past week has been extremely fa-
vourable for ripening the cora, and on Saturday the
Wheat harvest commenced near this city. The crops in
this neighbourhood look remarkably well, especially the
Oats, and, should the fine weather continue, a large quan-
tity will be cut during the ensuing week. We are sorry to
add the potato blight is very prevalent, and will terminate
more seriously than heretofore anticipated.
