SUGAR.—BatevoL, Pan. 17.—The .esker has been
steady but quiet this week, end the sales are confined to two
cargoes of mensre, chiefly from 40s. to 42e. Bd. for com.
CNC promo, and from 43e. In 47e. for crystallised sorts ;
in floating cargoes we have not heard of any transacdoes.
Refiners' produce meets with a moderate inquiry, at fully
former info's. Ram Is quite neglected.

COTTON.—lsviurooL, Pun. 18.—There to no change
to mod is our market to-day, which remains quiet."M'
rho are 7,000 balsa, of which 1,600 sre fur export and 'pi-
Walton.

COTTON 0001/11.-11secn Merin, Pie. 18.—There
has Wee nothing in the Uvsrpool cotton make* this week to
affect the prices of yarn or cloth. The supply offering is
large, and the melee have bees rather restricted, at Moldy
rates. The pejo.s of yarns and cloths this week have also
undergone little or no change. For 40's mule twist of India
qualities the extra demand et the oomanencmient of the week
calmed spinners to ask rather more money, and Ws to
28's water twist ware very Ann in coesequance of
rather more inqutry, but sellers have not altered quo.
tations in their prices current. The market ie quieter
at the close of the week, especially for the Bast,
telegrams to hand from Bombay to the 25th January
reporting that market se showing no improvenient, whilst at
Calcutta, up to the 34th, yarns sod cloths were rather easier
in price. The market is very blue of these goods, bower,
with spinners sad maaufacturers still well under older, and
full rates are mainteioed. Long cloths and T have been
quiet, the week's miles being inconsiderable, bat contracts are
still heavy and prime Arm. In printers there has been bat
little new business, but the orders in head support last quo-
tations. In 40-Inch shirting, generally, there is no change,
hat 38-Inch are in lees demand. In yarns suited to menu.
nocturne there is a ready business, the large orders in 'nand
rendering them 'pod customers to spinners. Two-folds
suited to the Bradford market And a ready sale. and high
numbers of singles are in demand at full rates, the market
being bare of stook.

WOOLLEN.—Loans, F. 18.—There was about the
newel attendant's of buyers in the Cloth WS this morning.
Ordinary cloths had good esle, but Lacy rotators were in

transactions was limited.

HARD WARE.—Btunnomott, Fan. 18.—A further im-
provement has taken place in the trade of this town si1101)
our last week's report. Tim country orders an ern coming
in freely ; and although the foreign trade is free nom anima-
tion, there is still a very kir meant of business doing. The
mason trade. all display • good deel of activity ; the mann-
featurers' order-tooke are Ailed ; io no important branch of
trade is there the .lightest evidence of slackness ; and in the
town, as well ea the adjoining di.trict, labour is folly em-
ployed. The strike of the chitittniakers of Creaky and
Netherton has terminated, after having hutted about 27 weeks;
the men have returned to their work, oonoesaiou being made
en both sides. The iron trade ie rather 80, but prices are
firm ;for foreign iron there is only • moderate demand. Tha
manual meeting of the Birmiegham Thinking Com-1
petty was held a how days ago ; the net profits of the
year were declared to amount to 39,7231. Ilc ; and a
dividend and boars of 20e. per sham for the half.
