MARKETS.

COTTON. —Ltnatmot, AUGCNT 21.—Cotton still coati.
noes in demand, and the sales are large at full prices. The
Canada's dolma are much the same as baton, and the mkt
ere 10,000 bales ; including 7,020 Awaken, at 30. to did ;
2,000 Surat, at 3d. to Sid. ; 100 • at ;lUO
Ptomain, at 70. to 70. ; 120 at 7id. ;
which 4,000 are for speculation and export. The v.erk's
import is 14,111 bales.

COTTON GOOD6.—Kummairsx, Avow+, 21.—Thc
yarn market is vev quiet, the demand being limited for all
quarters, but emsaagy for the East, from whence sever.d
houses are in posessuen of telegrams of an unfavourable
character. Ors of these marines states that at Calcutta on
rditi July: cloths were unsaleable, and that the pie of
both cloth and yarns were lower. In home trade yarns
there is no change here since last week. The German and
Mediterranean shippers are doing a little Waken, but
nothing calculated to affect value, the present
steadiness of which, in yams, is attributable G.
the recent movement in the cotton market. The telegame
referred to from Calcutta do not quite agree as to the auto
of the cloth market, one stating that prices were lower,
with no business, but another reporting that shirtinga had
been saleable at M. to 41d. per piece decline. TelegrainA
from Bombay to 24th July report prima of imports low,r
and monsoon unfavourable. Advice' from China are also
unfavourable. The consequence is that in this mark. t.
to-day all the current staple cloths fur the East have re
oeived a check even at the low prices of last week. As
letters from Bombay to the Bth and from Calcutta to the
Gth July will be to hand to-morrow, buyers are induced to
postpone even the orders they were inclined to place until
these are to hand. The market closer in all India goods
exceedingly fiat, and probably but for the favourable change
In the weather we should have a more gloomy feeling.
Printing cloths are lower, and longcloths and T cloths mole
difficult of sale ; the latter, if pressed on the market, having
to be sold at a concession.

WOOLLEN.—LEEDS, AUGUST 21.—There was no tea.
tyre of importance in the market this morning ; it was mu.
derately well attended, and about an average Tuesday's

week's currency was scarcely exceeded ,• foreign in good re-
tail request at full prices. Barley of all descriptions sell.
readily at 6d. to Is. per qr. advance. Oats of fine quality
wanted, and rather dearer ; secondary descriptions still be.

LIVRRPOOL, AUGUST 21.—We bad a large attendance of
country buyers at our corn exchange this morning, but the
day being fine and the pretensions of holders above their
ideaa, only a moderate amount of business resulted, and the
advance established in the interval since Friday could nut
be maintained. Wheat may be written nominally 2d. per
rental, and flour la. Gil per barrel and sack dearer, the
latter article being held with great firmness. Indian corn
was held for the advance of from tid. to Is. per quarter
made yesterday, but the demand was quite in retail. Oats
and oatmeal bring full prices. Beaus, pease, and barley have
each improved bi. per quarter. The market closed without
animation.

Newcairrte, Aucusr 21.—The weather during the greater
part of yesterday was fine, but towards evening we expe.
nenced a heavy fall of rain. To-day is fine, with a rising
barometer, but there are heavy clouds floating about highly
I charged with moisture. At our market this morning we
had a very meaty show of wheat from the growers ea well
as from the coast, but from abroad the auivala are to a
good extent. The business passing was confined to country
buyers, who paid 655. for choice Norfolk yellow, and
645. 61. i. for mixed, wanting in condition, perso4lls. Foreign
was held with great confidence for rather higher priors,
which had the effect of checking business. Flour very
scarce and much wanted. Grinding barley in good demand,
choice Danish making 365. per 44$lhs. Fine malt sought
after. In beau or peas little change; oats pointing
upward.

a moderate supply of grain and a full attendance of buyam

was asked for good samples of wheat, which for a time
checked sales, but subsequently a business was dune at
(with few exceptions) from Is. to 2s. per qr. higher. Flour
advanced la per sack. Late prices of grinding barley were
very firmly supported. Malt was in advance of about 3d.
per bushel In other respects a limited trade was done at

there was a far letter supply of beasts than for some
months past, both in quality and quantity ; and there sass
also a vely large atteudae of butchers and dealers. Fm
the very large number of beasts, business commenced rathe
dull, less rates having been offered, but graziers not giving
way to the terms, a good business was ultimately transacted
at the full prices of last market, and a clearance
(axcespea few rough animals) was effected. Notwithstand-
