COTTON GOODS..

Mir 11.—The de-

mend for cloths has been less animated than MI fu;s1;;,
but there is a fair business notwithstanding, and stocks
being exceedingly light or almost cleared off prices are
very firm. The business in T cloths has been fully equal
to what it was last week, and the lighter makes are well
engaged for India. Long cloths are only selling mode-
rately. In printing cloths there is sufficient demand to
keep prices steady, and the same report is given of 36-inch
shirtinp; for both prices are steady. cers of 40-inch
shirtiap, especially light weights, and of jecconets, have
considerable contracts, and there is only a moderate burl.
new, at steady rates. There is a firm and healthy yarn
market, but rather lam business is doing, though sufficient,
with the pre-engagements of spinners, to keep values

of activity to the market in the business now

[Ad vertmement. )—HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND
MlA—Changes of season are always trying to inanMnd, from
the variability of temperature now Increasing. then depressing
the circulation. Hence the prevalence of throat affections, chest
complaints. and disordered digestion at this season. For all this
catalogue of ailments, Holloway's ointment, rubbed thoroughly
twice a day over the parts affected, will be found universally
serviceable in preventing, checking, or curing each and all, how-
ever severe the attack. It is remarkably curative In cases of re-
laxed, inflamed, or ulcerated throat. while for glandular enlarge-
ments It isa specific. For coughs. colds, asthma, and bronchitis,
Holloway's pals should be taken simultaneously with the fric-
tion of the ointment over the chest ; ease will soon follow this
treatment, and health will return.
