supplied this week with raw sugars, therefore the truistic.
!ions have not been large • prices are unaltered except for
Barbados., which are rather easier. Refiners' produce is dull
of sale, with little doing. Rums are in moderate request at

corrorr. —LIVERPOOL, Auousr 17. —The advice. regard-
big the American crop being still of an unfavourable cha-
racter, have again cause 4 much activity in the market, and
prices have shown a gradually haidening tendency during
the week, and may now be quoted at 4d. dearer for the
useful common qualities of American, and fully d.a per lb.
in the middling classes, whilst the higher gradss exhibit
little or no change from last Friday's currency. Brazil and
Fgyptian have paaticipat4xl in the improved demand, and
they are firmer, and in some cane rather dearer. The busi-

vance of ad. per lb. Speculators have taken 13,960 Ameri-
can and 2,000 Surat ; and there are reported for export,

CCYITON GOODIS.—MASCHERTER, AUGUST 17.--The
market baa been dull and depressed throughout the week.
The sales to-day have been few, and at no improvement in
price ea compared with Tueseky. For India and China
very little has been done in piece goods, and the sales made
are mostly reported at low prices. In these and einto4 all
classes of goods sellers have still to make a slight abate-
ment to force sales. For domestics and 9-lithe what rn
prices are comparatively steadier, but there is not much
business in yarns. The rise of cotton has induced spinners
to ask better terms, and prices are 'weedier ; but this has
checked business, and the sales ere very limited.

CORN.—CHELM9FORD, AUGUST 17.—The supply of wheat
was moderate at today's market. The weather having
been very unsettled with heavy rains during the week,
ferment demanded 2s. advance, which checked business ;
however, about Is. advance was given for best qualities.
Beans very scarce, and rather dearer. Harvest has com-
menced in a few instances,; but is retarded by the weather.
Immoms, Accuse 17.—We have had a small supply of
wheat and a limited demand, at Is. to 2s. advance on last
week's prices. flo little doing in other articles that quota-
tions would be merely nominal. Wheat, red, 615. to ills. ;
white, 84s. to 665.
L/VIRPOOL, AUGUST 17.—We have bad a fair attendance
of both millers and dealers at our corn exchange this morn-
ing, and considerable excitement was shown at the opening
of the market, wheat wiling freely at a further advance of
about 9d. per metal, (4d. on the week), and flour fully 6d.
per barrel and sack (lea. 6d. advance on the week), and large
quantities were taken both for consumption and to hold
over. Indian corn partook of the excitement, though not
to the same extent, and sales were made readily at a further
improvement of about 6d. per quarter, or fully la ed. upon
the week. Oats are Id. per bushel and oatmeal 6d. per load
dearer. Beans also have advanced 6d. to Is. per quarter,
