COTTON GOODS. Mancnawrmt, MAY 18.—Thg
has been no improvement in this market since Tuley.
So far as any change can be observed it is rather for is
worse. More than 100,000 bales of cotton have bees idiai
to stock this week in Liverpool, after deducting Weida
imports, making the total nearly • million. limn g
cloth and yarn have no faith in prices based on the
sent rates for cotton under such circumstances, sad ni .
next to impossible to do business without making on..
pions in price. Some producers have taken heavy wan
at lower prices than will pay for cotton at; preeest-a
somewhat bold course—but the belief is all but tustrend
that the raw material must give way • good deal yet. In
shipping yarns the market to-day has been very glig
with less disposition for business ; and lower prices nes
been accepted generally by spinners. They close my
quiet. For home trade yarns we have also had a very quig
market. Manufacturers still pursue the policy of ha*
yarns only to satisfy immediate requirements, and prigs
are slightly easier as cumpared with Tuesday. In don
there us no change since Tuesday. The market is still Tay
much depressed by constant rumours of fresh cominged
difficulties in London and LiverpooL Buyers as a rale fai
it impossible to discount the paper they hold, sod Wailes
naturally a tendency to impede operations. There is io
change to-day in quotations for cloth, though yarn I
cheaper and cotton has given way something Wu In as
lb. at Liverpool.

CORN.—CHZLIISTORD, May 18.—There was a est,
thin attendance of farmers at market to-day, and but
small show of wheat. A good deal of the white 'but

runs of red and white made ls. advance. Bed, 455. to
475. ; extra, 48s. ; white, 48s. to 51s. ; extra, 525. Baal
very scarce and dearer. The prospect of the groviag
wheat is not good, but it is thought they have sliOtlyiar
proved the last week in appearance.

wheat, and a very limited demand at barely last went'
prices. Wheat red, 465. to 48e. ; white, 53a. Oats, 191.
