Co'rrow.—The cotton market in the commencement of the week
was exceedingly dull, the demand was very limited and prices
favoured the buyer , during the past two days a much better enquiry
has existed, and, although the offerings continue very liberal, hol..
ders have obtained the
.extreme currency of last Friday, and in
some instances even a slight advance on American. Brazil and
Egyptian very firm. Surat in large request, at very full prices. The
weekly

American, which continues in demand without further concession
in price. Barley and beans unaltered. Oats and oatmeal dull sale.

PROVISION.—With an increased desire on the part of holders of
middling and ordinary qualities of beef to make sales, buyers have
held back, and the transactions for the week are below an average,
and generally at a slight concession in price. Pork has also bean
less sought after, but prices are firmly supported, and the stock,
though considerably increased, is not greater than is likely to be
required. There is quite a pause in the demand for bacon, but no
giving way in price, stocks in first hands being light. Hams and
shoulders partake in this dulness, and a reduction of Is to 2s per
cwt has been submitted to. At an advance of Is to is 64 per cwt,
lard has been taken by the refiners to the extent of about 100 tons
on the spot, and an equal quantity to arrive. There is a steady
demand for cheese, and full prices continue to be paid for all
qualities not out of condition. Grease butter sells at the quotations.
There is more doing in tallow, at last week's prices. Linseed cake
steady.
