MARKETS.

exerrow.—LrizarooL, Arcust & —There has been au
active market again to-day, and the sales are very large,
with £d. to 4d. per lb. advance upon last week's quotations,
particularly for the lower qualities of Amencan, amounting
to 20,000 bales—(including 18,500 American, 31st. to
sg 1,000 Surat, ad. to 4d. ; 400 raptian, 84d. to
; 100 Pernam, 7d. to Rol,)—of which 7,000 are for spa•
culation and export. The week's import 17,861 bales.

BILH.—The position of the silk market is noticed as
follows by Messrs. Durant and Co., under date August 8 :
" We have had a very quiet month in silk—heavy market
and drooping prices. The reduction, however, has been
nothing of moment. The stock is small,L and may now be
expected to be continually diminishing for the next few
months. This has enabled importers to realise the small
quantity that has come forward without any decided con-
cession- -nothing exceeding tid. to 9d., and in some cases la.
per lb. Within the last few days a better feeling seems to
be growing up, although the home-trade is still bad, and
foreigner, generally continue to act as if expecting lower
prices. The strike at Coventry, which has been going on
for some weeks, unfortunately still continues—causing a large
diminution in consumption. In Chinese-thrown silk the
demand has again relapsed to the minimum rate of the early
months of the year—of this class the stock is unfortunately
large. Bengal silk has formed no exception to the general
quiet. In Italian silk we are without any arrival of new
beyond a few balers. In Beutia and Persian silk nothing.

CORN.—Bonvon, Atlanta B.—We have had a small
show of wheat to-day, which fully realised but week's
price*, and in souls instances is. par qr. advance was ob-
tained for fresh thrashed wheats, it having rained inces-
santly the whole of the day. In oats, beans, and barley
nothing doing.

GLASGOW, Ammer B.—This day's market was not very
well attended, but there wu a fair inquiry for wheat from
some of our load millers • holders, however, requiring full
prices, few sales had transpired at the clue. Flour waa
steady at previous rates. Barley neglected. Oats fully as
firm, but few buyers. Oatmeal unchanged. Peas and
Indian corn held fur 3d. to 6d. per boll over previous prices.
Beans unaltered.

Brocerots-ow-Tsze, Annum' B.—The weather continues
unfavourable for maturing the crops, being cold, with fre-
