dries ; 936 sheets English skin and tlesoe—total 24,339 bales
and sheets,. There wee • fair attendance of the home trade
end about the usual number of foreign buyers. The happy
termination of the war on the Continent, with the favour-
able pros of an abundant end early harvest, infused
cone spirit into this aeries, and the result with few
exceptions has been favourable to importsen For at

LEATHER AND HIDES.—The month of July hail
peered without that decided improvement in the loather
market which was gutaraly exported to take plate during
that month. lammed of any anticepatery rine, which
are often made at this memos of the year, bows have re-
stricted their transoctions to their inueedlete moats. Not-
withstanding this caution, however, en increased dammed
hes recently existed, and, in the muses of liege supplies,
the stooks on bend an still modersae, and prices have with
experienced warmly any change. It is very generally
what effect will the termination of the Italian war have on the
hide and leather markets of our country? In reply to such
inquiriee, we beg to state that although the drat impression
likely to be produced might be aflame, and has perhaps con-
tributed us the prolonged dolmas of the trade, it is not pro-
bable that the conolur of pesos will diminish the consump-
tics, or depress the vales of hides or leather. On the con-
trary, it is unquentioahle that the war has greatly interfered
with the trade, and limited the postal consump-
lion of some of the countries of the Ccatinent, and that
under the happier hide/Ince of pesos credit will be motored,
and trade sod conenraption both stinsulated. Already one
Largo of South Areerioan hides Lora, mod two cargoes afloat,
hays been sold for the Continent, sad there is no doubt that
farther orders will cautions to be received to raw goods. It
most also be remembered, that while we thus hope for the
extenadon of commerce, which peace may be expected to bring,
the seals of defensive preparation which our government feels
it needful to adopt must add to the consumption at home.
Them eircumstonces. combined with the easy position of the
money market, and the prospect of a continuance of the low
price of food, present good rewire to anticipate an active
demand for leather. Of raw goods the importations have
been large, and me there hal bean no induce/heat to the tan-
ners to purchase beforehand the transactions have been
limited. The stocks have Increased, and the tendency of
pricer generally has been downward. The tanners are not,
however. m general heavily supplied, while its some of the
continental markets the storks are very sznalL—(From the
