MARKET&

OCITTON.—LrywooI., F. Z3.—We have had more
demand for cotton to-day, with a dearer tendency. The
sales are 10,000 bake—including 9,080 American, at 54d. to
9d. ; 700 Surat, PA 4id. to sd. ; 200 Sian, at aia.to
93d. ; 200 Pernam, at 80.—ol which 3, I I I are for specula-
tion and export. Today's import is 31,177 balm.

COTTON GOODS.—Mancnorrin, Fee. 23.—A slightly
better feeling manifested itself yesterday in this market on
it. becoming known that the Blackburn strike of operatives
war at an end, but it was only felt in yarns, and in the
clue consumed by Blackburn manufacturers. In clothe the
resumption of production bee, of course, a depressing effect.
In other respects there is very little change in the market,
Messrs. John Munn and Co. say :—" The depression in
goods has been severe, more severe than we have expe
rienced sines the ekes of 1857. Scarcely any business liar
been done, the few sales made having been of quite a
retail character. If any offers forkrger quantities have been
submitted they have been found altogether too low to be
accepted. The mans of this depression are altogether without
abatement. Monetary difficulties are the same, and the
advice' from foreign markets, received during the week, are
without the lout improvement." The decline in 40-inch
shirtings is about Id. per piece since the commencement of
the week on 71b to 81b. 4os. cloth, and 16d. on lighter
makes, and the principal offers on at still lower rates.
There are some moderate orders in hand for long-cloths and
T-cloths suited to the borne trade, but other kinds are diffi-
cult to sell, and fetch lower rates. Printers are also diffi-
cult to sell, and increasing in stock, so that prices are gra-
dually being forced down. There is rather more steadiness
in water twist suited to the continent sad to the China
markets, but there is very little business. Prices are ex-
tremely irregular in all kinds of yarns, sellers being a
good deal iotlueuoed by the extent of their stocks, which
have accumulated largely in many cases, and the conse-
quent pressure upon them to sell. Some of the offers
reeking are very low.

WOOLLEN CLOTII—Lmme, Fn. 23.—There bas
bran an average attendance in the Cloth-halls this morning,
and • fair business was transacted in Welton' ►nd fancy
fabrics, but onlinuy cloths wire only in limited demand.

BARDWARL—Bnnarmeme. Frs. M.—The reports as
to the state of trade in this town continue to be of an un-
favourable character ; in both the home and foreign trade
inanimation is the prevailing feature. The factors orders
with regard to goods for the spring trade have seldom been
manse than of late ; the slight reaction which took place
a Might or three weeks, since having, to a great extent,
sabsidd There ere few of the manufacturers who have
more orders than are sufficient to keep their workpeople on
at moderate time ; but many of them are unable to do so
mush, sad the oat-workers are badly oft for employ-
meet. Up to this time the orders for spring goods
have been as light as possible, and the prospects
of improvement are not encouraging. In the ad-
joining district there are nearly two thousand of the
operatives in the horse-nail trade who are still out upon
strike. The iron trade in South Staffordshire continues
very much depressed, and in the northern part of the
county many of the men in the iron and coal beam are
unsettled, or have actually turned out consequent on vs.
duction of wages.

market, without any variation in price from but week.

of good barley—them realised full prices ; other deecnp-

•

GUILDFORD, FEB. 23.-The supply of wheat was rather
limited. Trade dull, difficulty being experienced in dis-
posing of the cold samples, but priced were quite equal to
Wt weak. Beans rather cheaper; other grain without
change. Wheat, 46e. to 691. ; barley, 28a. to 44a. ; oats,
21a. to 29a.; beans, 365. to 465. ; peas, 36a. to 465.
Hanrroan, Fia 23.-We were again well supplied with
wheat, a fair quantity in good condition ; still the trade
was dull at last week's prices ; the inferior samples were
lower fully la. per qr., with few buyers. Barley gold slowly
at rather less money, even for the toast ; inferior sorts very
dull at lees money. Oats made last week's prices. Pau
and beans rather lower, about ls. per qr. Wheat. 26e. to
445. per load ; barley, 265. to 445. per qr. ; oats, Ms. to
30s. per qr. ; peas, 255. to 33e. per load; beans, 255. to 355.
per load.
LRICUTER, Fee. 23.-At our corn market to-day the at-
tendance of farmers and lactase was tolerably good, and the
show of wheat for the season was about an average. Owing
to the damp state of the weather, the greater portion of the
new samples CRAW to heed in very poor condition. The
trade ruled dull, and the quotations of the previous week
were maintained. Old white qualities moved off at 70s. to
78e. ; old red, 64a. to 68e. ; new white, 54• to 665. ; new
red, 545. to 66e. per 36 stone. There was a somewhat
limited show of barley, the bulk of which was of se-
condary quality, and only suitable for feed purpose.. The
inquiry Tided healthy, and superior samples were disposed
of at prices about the same am those of the week preceding,
while common kinds were a heavy sale, and prices had •
downward tendency ; malting, 36e. to 42a. per quarter ;
grinding. 31s. to 44a. per 30 stone. The show of oats was
only moderate and the inquiry was fair, consequently late
terms were well supported • old, 335. to 36• ; new, 242. to
225. per 24 stone. In beans, the show of which was short,
the business done was at recent currencies ; old, 565. to 58e.;
new, 345. to 40s. per 38 stone. Fine flour, 48s. ; seconds,
455. ; thirds, 435. per 20 stone.
Nzwesmu-orox-Tura, Fun. 23.-At our market this
morning we bad a moderate show of wheat from the growers,
but having • good deal offering from the stands the trade
opened languidly, and sales could only be promoted bv sub-
mitting to a reductioo of Is. per qr. upon the prices of this
day se nnight ; there was, however, such a general indis-
position for business that the trade can be called little better
than nominal. We did not hear of a single transaction in
south country qualities, whereas in foreign the business was
confined to American red at 635. per 50411 a. Flour sold
slowly, sad may be written • shade cheaper. For barley
there was • slow inquiry, the demand being confined chiefly
to Danish. Malt, unless fine, neglected. Beans and peas
met little attention. Oats unaltered. The arrivals this
week are :-Wheat, coastwise, 5,926 qrs. ' • foreign, 4,114 ;
barley, rtertwile, 483 ; foreign, 2.05/ ; malt, coastwise,
274 oats, endwise, 960; foreign, 200; peas, coastwise, 25 ;
fame, 40 ; beans, coastwise, 21; foreign, 3 ; flour, 1,524
sacks. Indian corn flour, 560 auks.

Noavnca, Fee. 23.-There was a fair supply of wheat
at to-day's market.. Some of the samples were
in moderate condition, and sold slowly at; a reduc-
tion of Is. to 2.. per qr., but the best samples fully
maintained former prim. There was rather more barley
diming than on this day sennight, and prices remained
wthout alteration for either malting or distilling sorts.
White wheat is quoted this evening. 565. to 60e. ; red ditto,
525. to 56e. • damp and inferior ditto, 48s. to 525. ; best
Chevalier Malting barley, 43e. to 455. ; runs Chendierditto,
40.. to 42a. ; distilling ditto, 31s. to 34.. par qr. ; dour,
40s. to 41s. per sack, from the miller.
Norruecuas, Fan. 23.-There was • moderate show of
wheat on offer from the growers at our corn market to-day,
the supply consisting of cld and new sorts. The tempera.
tare during the past week has been yorylow,with occasional
showers of rain, and many new samples were out of con.
ditioo. Fine sorts were as dear as last week. Inferior
sampler were pretty generally neglected. Old white de.
ecnOions were disposed of at 68a. to 791.; new ditto, 52a.
to 68a. ; old red, 64a. to 735. ; sew ditto, 475. to 63e. per 36
stone. The supply of barley was middling, and for the best
samples a moderate inquiry was experienced at the currency
of the week previous; malting, 36e. to 445. ; foreign Seale,
435. to 47.. per qr. Grinding sorts were in less request,
but not much altered in pnce, old making 325. to 35e. ;
new, 30s. to 325., per 30 stone. Oda came to hood rather
slowly, and a moderate share of business was transacted at
prices quite equal to those of the week previous • old, 325.
to 395. ; new, 245. to 30a. • old foreign, 28.. to he. per 24
stone. The demand for beans was steady, and sales took
place at remunerative rate. ; 565. to 54e. • ' new, 39a. to
40a. per 38 stone. The flutist dour made 46e. to 52.. ; fine,
42e. to 455. per rack.
OXPORD. Fn. V. -The market was well attended to-day,
and prime dry samples of all kinds of grain were in request,
bat thole in adamp state (by • great deal the largest pro-
porno.) commaided very little attention. One ample of
red wheat was offering as low as 365. per qr. ; its condi-
tion may be judged from the price. Malting barley was
much sought after, and made a high figura me quotation.
were as follows, via :-White wheat, 60s. to 70s. per qr. ;
rd wheat, 365. to 645. • barley, 325. to 46a. ; cats, 20e. to

iuraaaosooos, Fwt 23.—At oar market today we
had a fair supply of wheat, which met a slow sale at
the peaces of this day week. Barley, anything but the best
hmd to sell. Oats support late rates. Beans as before.
Beet red wheat, 57e. to Me. per qr. of 5041ba. ; Common
ditto, 44a to 44.. per qr. of 480th.. ,• oats, IS. Id. to Is. 2d.
per atone ; beans, old, ade. per qr. of 6321b5.
ELWIN°, Pt/. n —TM,* was ooly a very moderate
supply of wheat at our market this morning, for the most
part of very inferior desaiption. The attendance was aa
average one. Business rated exceedingly heavy ; indeed,
the trade was quite of • seminal character at late rates.
Little doing I. other articles, and no alteration in price.
ROC9IIIIIIIII, Fr.. 23.—The stands at this corn exchange
were moilmately supplied, but the demand was mostly
to the very bast kinds, damp and inferior lota, al-
ChM* 41111111101 at about Is. per quarter lees money, failing
to attar* porobasort The best samples were takes off at
about the rates of bat weak, but there was ea ahem* al all
speoulation in the tab. Foreign sold slowly, at barely
rates at WI lank. That* wee vary Wahl brag at

market, and fine parcels were not numerous. Par best kind
prices remained steady, but some of the malting lots gar
way 6d. per quarter, and grinding Is. Oats met with little
attention, but the prices for best samples ruled steady.
Old beans of prime quality still continue dear. There is
scarcely any alteration in the value of flour, best kinds
soaking former prices.

Winercir, Fn. 23.—Thu market is fairly supplied wit
all grain
i; the condition of wheat la worse this week ths/3
re befo • n fact, almost the whole supply requires the kith.
The trade therefore is very dull and drooping. Oats aid
beans dull at last week's prima. Prices to the gower ;
Wheat, white, new, 50e. to GM., &Albs. per bshel ;
new, 455. to 565., 631bs. ; oats, new, L. to Is. Id. per atone.

WOWNSTIE. Fn. ?a —At this day's market there was a
short supply of wheat, but the trade ruled dull at rather
under the currency of this day week. Barley L. per .ir.
lower. Oats only taken in retail. Beans dull. ScArcrly
any demand fur peas.
You, Fix 23.—The quantity of wheat exhibited at nut
oorn market to-day was hardly so large as usual, tlote.
being only a few old samples offered. There was a nosh rut°
sprinkling of new aorta, the quality and condition of which
were materially affected by the damp state of the :aim,
sphere during the past week. Wheat was a slow sale at last
week's rates. The best white aorta found purchaser, at
64a. ; ordinary runs, 56a. to 60s. ' • fine red, 58s. ; other
'Wes, 465. to 56e. per qr. of 36 stool. The supply of bailey
of fine quality was hardly sufficient to meet the dems4
and the quotations of last Saturday were well supported,
rates varying from 38s. to 42a. per qr. ; feed sorts moved off
slowly, and in some CUSS rather less money bad to he taken
in order to effect sales, eamples making 325. to 355. per 30
stone. The oats trade ruled steady, and the supply hrlue
short, holders were enabled to realise late terms, wh,-E
varied from 245. to 28s. per 24 stone. Beans were as menre
and quite as dear as last market day ; old, 48s. to 565. ;
40s. to 435. per 38 stone ; malt, 70e. to 725. ; rye, 38a. pa
qr. ; flour, 475. to 50s. per 20 stone.

-
suaroacur, Fla 23.—At our country markets tai,
week we had little barley offering, but good supplies of
wheat and oats. Bales slow, and prices of wheat and bark,
much as last week ; oats about la. per qr. lower. Here, to.
day, we had moderate supplies of wheat sad barley, bet
large of cats. Sales ready enough for all. Wheat ,
barley much as last week. Oats rather dearer. Wheat,
335. to 60s. per qr.; barley, It.. to 435.; oats, 2120 a. to 32e.
