MARKETS.

COTTON.—LivEnvooL, JAN. 18.—The sales today are
estimated at 6,000 bales, and comprise 6,000 American
(1,000 onepeculation), 120 Penton and Maranhao, 100
Egyptian, Bd. to M.; 300 Surat, 31d. to 41d.; 15 Sea Wanda.
The market closes very firmly, and compared with Friday's
rates, prices of American over 51d., are 1-16 d. to Id. per lb.
dearer. Everything else without change.
MANCHWITIII, JAN. 18.—We have a better business
both in yarn end cloth, end the improvement of the wea-
ther, taken with the general tenor of the commercial ad-
vice, by the American and Indian mails, has had an en-
couraging effect. The leading demand in yarns is chiefly
for India and the Mediterranean still • but the Germans
have been inquiring rather more for ioods to-day, and ap-
pear to be evincing a little more confidence. Sturtinp and
madapollams are also in request fur India, and goad to fine
fabrics seem to be in request and to command full prices.
In yarns and cloths, which are scarce, or are much wanted,
sellers have been able to realise Id. per lb. advance ; but,
generally speaking, the improvement is one only in extent
of business, with greater firmness in price. Manufac-
turers have been making more inquiry for cops, and the
spinners hold them with firmness, and are certainly dis-
posed to exact an advance where they can. The Greek
houses ate doing but a limited business, and speak of nue-
munerative prices in the markets of the Levant, and inse-
curity for money.
WOOLLEN CLOTHB.—Liana, JAN. 18.—We have the

pleasant duty of still reporting • continuance of good trade,
at very firm prices. In the cloth halls to-day there has been
• good average demand for seasonable goods, and the wool-
len Made of the district generally never wore a more healthy
aspect.
WOOL.—HIMDIIIIBFIILD, Jae. 18.— The Wool trade

is ;t present brisk,andZo—iinion is now prevalent that a
few weeks will see them still dearer, which causes manu-
facturers to buy more freely, while some dealers who are
low in stock are buying considerable quantities in neigh-
bouring towns.

MANUFACTURES.— HUDDERSFIELD, Jan. 18.—We
have again had a good demand for almost all descriptions of
goods common to our market, particularly low•pricsd shades,
mixtures, plaids, die., stocks of which are now becoming
very bare ; besides this, a good portion of goods ate making
to order which ars delivered direct to the merchants, and
consequently are not brought into market.

CORN.—Boca , Jan. 18.—The trade remains inactive,
but without variation is prim. We had to-day a good sup-
ply of English Wheat, the condition for the most part
wone than last week, and such met dull sale at some little
decline; anything in really good condition was worth fully
as much money. No alteration in foreign Wheats. Bar-
-1 scarce, and fully Is. to 2s. dearer. The seller has an
advantage in the sale of Oats. The demand for Beans and
Peas less active. Linseed fully supports the late advances,
and Cakes are rather more enquired for. Nothing doing in
Rapeseed, and Rape Cakes are only retail sale.
LEIDIII, Jaw. 18.—We have fair arrivals of wheat, for
which we experience a steady demand at the full prices of
Friday. Barley in request, and the turn dearer. Oats,
Bean+, and other articles without alteration. Arrivals this
week: Wheat, 5,156; Barley, 422; Beans, 1,159; Peas,
87; Rapeseed, 969.

LIVIAPOOL, JAN. 18. A reference to the import
note of the past week will show goodly quantities of
oatmeal and oats from Ireland, but little of other articles
of the grain trade then*, and coastwise. Of foreign pro-
duce the arrivals are small. This week's exports embrace
3,935 qrs. wheat, 1,073 bee. and 632 sks. of flour, 723 loads
of oatmeal (to Australia). and 140 qn. Indian eorn.—The
transactions of the week have been to a fair extent in wheat
and flour, and prices have exhibited an inclined tendency.
The Corn Exchange this morning was scarcely so well
attended by millets and dealers, and the demand for wheat
and flour was not so active es on Friday, still the slight im-
provement in prices then established was firmly exacted by
holders to-day. Oats met a fair demand, and ►rought full
quotations. Notwithstanding the large supply of oatmeal,
purchases could not generally be made on easier terms
than last week. Barley, beans, and peas all dull Jule. No
change as regards Indian Corn. Arrivals from the 11th
to the 17th Jas., inclusive, into Liverpool and Run-
corn: Wheat, 8,162 qrs.; Barley, 380; Malt, 102; Oats,
6,869; Beans, 3,296; Peu, 839; Oatmeal, 25,286 sacks;
Flour, 2,626 sacks, and 5,294 brie. Exports to Ireland :
Wheat, 3,123 qrs. ; Indian Corn, 150; Floor, 345 sacks, and
675 brie.

LYNN, Jan. lB.—Supplies of Wheat moderate. Barley
short. Wheat fuliy maintains lut week's prices; and flue
Barley, Is. per qr. dearer.
' • •

NERCMITI.I, Jan. 18.—At OUT market this morning we
had a moderate show of Wheat from the growers, and,
having nothing fresh in of importance since Saturday,
fresh-thrashed samples moved off freely, at very full prices,
whereas South Country and foreign sold steadily at the
turn in favour of the seller, the market closing with a firm
tone. For Flour we experienced an increased inquiry, still
at the same time 375. Id. to 38s. may be deemed extreme
quotatious for households, and 40e. to 40e. 6d. for whites,
the general runs selling at rates corresponding with their
quality. Rye without change. Malting Barley of all
descriptions, without being dearer, met more general atten-
tion, and the same may be said of Malt and other articles.

CATTLE.—Raloarn (Staab), Jan. 18.—This market
was but moderately supplied with Beasts, which moved
steadily. Prime quality, at 36. Bd. to 41. ; inferior, 3s. to
36. 4d. per stone of 81b6. Sheep in good supply, with a good
demand. Withers sold freely at 4s. Bd. to ss. ; ewe matte.
3e. Bd. to 4s. Calves were in short supply, and the demand
being good, they made 3s. 10d. to M. The Pig trade
was brisk for both porkers and stores, at an advance on last
week's rates. Lean stock of all kinds in great demand, at
full prime. The sellers were firm, and a further advance
in prices is not unlikely, if dry weather sets in: _ _

SALISBURY, Jan. 18.—At our market this day we had a
heavy supply of Besets, but the quality generally was in-
different. The weather being fair and frosty, the attend-
ance of buyers was large, consequently there was a quick
demand for the best description of Besets, and the quota-
tions of last market were fully sustained; for inferior
animals the demand was slack, and although there was no
decline of prices, mimed rates in some instances were
accepted to effect mle, while many remained unsold. The
supply of Sheep was not large, and the best Down Mutton
was very scams, emsequently higher prices were de-
manded, and business was done at 65.; teg and other in-
ferior kinds also sold at • trifling advance, and a clearance
was effected. The supply of Pigs was about en average,
and the trade was animated at enhanced rates. Dead Pigs
were worth from 3d. to 6d. per score more money. Best
Or Beef, 10s. per score; emond.rate, 9s. 6d.; cow and
heifer, 71. to 84. Down Mutton, lid. perlb.; inferior worts,
6d. to std. Veal, 64. to so. Pork, 6d. Circus Veal,
Ss. to 91. per score ; Pork, Se. to Bs. 64. Bacon, 7s. 6d. ;
green, per lb., 7d. to lid. ; dry, Bd. Store Pigs, 16s. to
26e. each.
