COTTON GOODS.-11.sscatirrita, JAN. B.—There is
Ism animation In the market than at the commencement of
the week, and a very limited badmen has been done this
morning foe nearly) all kinds of yarn and cloth, buyers
having supplied their wants rather freely when prices were
et the lowest. The market is closed at the terms which pro-
ducers are rsquhing in ocesequence of cotton being so much
dearer. In fact neither buyers nor makers of goods believe
that cotton had reached the average rate at which it mast
ultimately sell ; and this belief, whether well-founded or not,
induces distrust for the peasant. The rates asked for yarn
and cloth on Tuesday were quite unobtainable to-day.;

ply of wheat et market to-day. which varied much in quality;

Barley, grinding, 30s. to 32a. ; malting, 38s. to 404.

Ll;iliPool,i•N. B.—We have a good inquiry for wheels
at our market this morning, and holders are very Am in
demanding such advance as buyers will not readily. comply
with ; the result is only a moderate amount of Mumma, on
which we raise our quotations for good useful qualities Id. to
2d., and were any prime samples of American offering, they
would have commanded even a greater improvement over the
current quotations of this day week. Flour is in some
and a hide dearer for superior parcels, while the
ti
ordinary.runs remain neglected. Barley and beans very
slow of Nile at unvaried rates. Oats and oatmeal steady, but
without much inquiry. American mixed and yellow corn
must be noted 6d., Galata end Odessa Is. per qr. cheaper;
white corn supports its tete valor; demand moderate.
. WAKEFIELD, JAN. BWhea was generally held fully
le. per qr. over last Friday's rates, but business proceeds
slowly at the advance, the return of mild open weather
operating unfavourably on the trade. Fine barley fetched
full prices. Beans dearer. In oats and shelling no alteration.
