MARKETS.

COTTON. —LIViIiPOOL, JUNK —The sales of cotton
to-day are estimated at 10,000 bales. A fair demand, but
without change in prices.

WOOL AND WORSTED. —BRAD/011D, Juva at..
There is no change to report in wool. The market is very
quiet, and prices continue firm The new clip is slow in
huffing its way to this market, partly because of the high
prices miked, but chiefly because of the unusual difficulties
experienced by the growers in the clipping, sod by thedealers
in the sorting of the,pew wool. What has omee is still for
the most part in the staplers' hands, for it is too costly for
consumers to meddle with it. The Leicester wool fair cams
off yesterday, and very high rates were asked, and it is
thought, from the appearance of the market to-day, that
buyers who went thither hop' to nu y themselves on
may terms have come away • , and hays bens
looking over stocks here with the hope of doing better
for themselves than they hays a chance of
doing in the country. There in no improve-
meat in worsted yarns, either as respects exports
or home oonsumption. Spinners are compelled to demand
higher rates-a circorustance which operates against the
making of any pew arrangements. There is perhaps a trills
more business doing in pieces than a fortnight ago, bet still
the market is very heavy. Manufacturers try, but in vain,
to obtain any material advance for their goods in cossiders.
Mon of the incr-seed price of yarns ; the prier they do ob-
tain hardly repays the cost of production. Loam are con-
sequently stopped in some histamine. Beier might be
done, if the seller would submit to old Mae; but at peasant
he is not disposed to do this. As stocks however nue is.
creasing in the manufacturers' bands, this issue nom in.
eviteble, unless production is considerably curtailed.

oar market this morning, but the sales of wheat were only
to a moderate extent at the currency of this day se ht.

any inquiry was experienced for flour. sod havers might
have supplied themselves at a reduction of 6d. per sack.

were without change. Indian corn was in better demand at
an abatement of 6d. to Is. per quarter.
