MARKETS.

OOTTON.--4.rnaroot., Oar. 30.—Our market continues
very active, end the sales are again large, with a hardengt
tendency, sweating to 23,000 bales—ineluding
Americans, at 31d. to 81.1. ; 3,500 Surat, at 3fd. to ilkag
500 Reyinian. at M. to 12d. • 10 Peniam, at fild.—d w '
13,000 are for speculation and export. The week's im-
port is 1,795 balm

COTTON GOOD&—Menoszerrn, Ocr. 30. —There is
• little mote business for the home trade in yarns, but
shippers to all markets are doing very little. Spinners are
asking higher rates in coesequeroe of the speculative excite-
ment at Liverpool in raw cotton (which is equal to )d. per
pound since Friday), and buyers of yarns for export having
no faith in the stability of such an advance wider the cir-
cumstances, prefer to withold their orders. Sellers are
asking gd. to id. per pound more, and are able to obtain it
for home trade yarns, but not for export twist. In some
cases an advance Is given by shippers, bat ft checks business
veu7 considerably. There is warmly anything doing in
cloths for the rune meson. Manufacturers are compelled
to raise their prices, and it has almost put an entire stop to
business. In addition to this the India and China houses
Lave no mail. It was due on Saturday, and they are welt-
ing for that before they do anything. There is a very ex-
cited business in the market, but in the position of buyers
they are almost unwilling to do anything. News two days
later from New Orleans speaks of prices as rather easier,
and there is o strong feeling here that present prices cannot
be sustained,

WOOLLEN.—LICLIMI, OCT. 30.—TaEng into account the
dark and fuggy 'tato of the weather during business hours,
there was• good market this morning—better than might
have been expected. There was a rather numerous attend-
ance of buyers, and the improvement we noticed on Satur-
day was fully maintained. The quantity of cloth cleared
out of the coloured hall during and after market hours was
larger than we have wen during several week, ; but the
white market was not so good. Only a very moderate busi-
ness was transacted then.

ILOILTFACITTRES. HUDDERSFIELD, Ocr. 30.—The
market has been thinly attended by buyers, and business
in nearly every branch has been quiet. Stooks are increas-
ing, and where manufacturers are willing to mooed°
point it does not operate upon purchasers as an induce-
ment to buy freely.

WOOLS.—HoopreaereLD, Oct 30.—There ie but little
demand for wools at present, buyer preferring to wait
till next London sales, announced to eminence on the 13th
of next month.

OORN.—Burt, Ocr. 30.—At to-day's market a good
supply of new English wheat, but quality and condition
pnerally so various that it is difficult to give any
correct quotation ; from 595. to 555. is about the value of
damp up to 60a. per 5041 b. for best sorts; old fresh-threshed
rid, if really fine, makes Ms. to Ms. per 5041 b. Foreign
supports late rates, with a fair inquiry for fine parcels, which
are scarce. Barley for malting in good request at former
currency, whilst griadiej I. rather dearer. Boos and pees
in limited supply, and la. to 2s. higher. Oats of fine quality
in fair demand at prices in favour of sellers. The foreign
impor, last week areas under :—Whest, 17,745 qrs.; barley,
16,901 ; oat., 1,761 ; beans, 2,81:03; peas, 369 ; tares, 562;
linseed end reposed, 19,179 ; oil cakes, 113 tons.
Lane, Ocr. 30.—Weather damp and very much against
the condition of grain. The few dos dry samples of new
wheat as well as old me held very firmly at late rates, sod
a little more disposition to operate is manifested, but all
damp and inferior samples are utterly neglected. Fine
rizs
.as
make f dear, other sort* very slow male. Beans and other
full prices.

Oct. 30.-The weather is mild and fine. Whilst
sowing is lorogresaing favourably on the light soils. AL
to-day a market we have bad a fair attendanoe of growers r,
good runs of wheat readily sold at late rates, damp sam-
ples dull sale, and prices rather lower. Barley rather more
offering, and prices of both malting and grinding were fully
maintained. Old beans and oats Is. per qr. higher.
Wheat, white, tillb. to 631 b., 635. to 671. ; ditto, red,
41 b. to 621 b., 525. to 635. Barley, beet Chevalier
melting, 531 b. to 5410., 44a. to 465. ; ditto, runs Chevarer,
ii2ilb. to 631 b., 38s. to 40s. ; ditto, distilling, fefilb.
to Mx, 345. to 36e. Beans, old, 631 b. to WM., !kg. to
545. per quarter imperial to the powers.
Newciawrix. 30.-The weather since Saturday has
boos exceedingly wet, in coneequenoe of which field opera-
tions have been totally suspended. At our market this
morning we had a moderate show of wheat from the
powers, which, owing to its wretched cooditioe, sold at
very irregular rates, and the MUG remarks will apply to
south country new, where quality and condition are want-
ing. The arrivehs of new French being superior, are for
the time supplanting the sale at south country varieties,
the best reds making 635. to 66e. per 50411 m. respectively.
Fine old foreign was more inquired for, and was the turn
dearer ; titettut red commanding readily 66e. ; medium
mixed Dantsic, 68a. ; and fine up to TO.. per 5041 be. Flour
that can be warranted in good demand, other sorts compara-
tively Neglected. Malting barley in steady request and
pointing upward ; grinding scarce. Old malt ls. to 2s.
dearer. Beans. peer, and oats in increased demand, end
still tending upward.
SALISBURY, Oct. 30.-At our market to-day there was •
very large supply of pain, and a full attendance. A con-
siderable business was done in wheat, and good dry am-
ple' hilly rivaled last week's rates ; but out of con-
ftioned sects (and there ware many of them) were not
eared for and had a dowaward tendency. Flour, unaltered
in value. There was a large inquiry for best melting barley.
which sold at an advance of lid. to Is. per quarter. The
malt trade was very firm, old malt being extremely scarce,
and new is reported as very inferior. In other descriptioes
of grain there was no quotable difference. New wheat,
Ns. to 70s. ; old ditto, 60s. to 745. ; barley, 34e. to 46e. ;
este, 945. to 325. ; beans, 46e. to MM. ; pets, 425. to 50s. •
rye, 30s. to 335. per qr. Flora, 475. to bin per sock:
Malt, 9e. to 9x 6d. per busheL

CATTLE.—Bauanomr, Ocr. 30.—Our market to-day
was completely crannewl with beasts, and there was also
• very large attendance of country butchers and dealers.
The whole of the beet beast' were oleariediat s reduction of
about 6d. per more; but the majority of inferior animals
were not sold, although lower rites would have been
accepted to effect sales. The supply of sheep was very
Luge,numbraing over 2,500,and of puticularly. rod quality.
There was • very quick sale, at • red:taloa. of Id. per lb.,
and almost • total clearance was effected. Of calves there
were but very few, which maintained former rates. The
pig market was well supplied, and a good business was
(Laing, but prices for all description were on the decline.
Best oz beef, lls. Od. to 12e. per more; now and heiferditto,

SALISBURY SKIMP FATS, OCT. 30.—Our October sheep
fair was held in the Butts. The numbs, penned wee
lather above that of last year, but trade ruled
dull, at about the prim* of late fain. Ewes may"lciees:
at from 2ts. to 355. ; wethers from 30, to 4th. ; and lambs
from 20s. to 28s. ; choice iota higher ; inferior iota lower.
