CALCUTTA, Nov. 7.
The mail per Oriental came in on the 31st ult. with Lon-
don dates to 24th September, bringing continued satisfutory
accounts of the home produce market, with upward tenden-
cies of values, less remarkable for any material rise sines the
previous mail, than foe the large extent of business doing on
the safe basis of increasing deliveries in mut of the staple
articles for actual consumption and an active ex port demand.
The lately prevalent Soo weather having exercised • faveur•
able influence upon the outstanding grain crops, and thereby
dispelled all anxiety with reference to the harvest, not only
encourages confidence to present prices, but leads general
opinion to the expectation of a further gradual rise, which
gives a stimulant to more general inclination for
speculums investments in produce. These repot s
beine a contluation of those by the previous mail, and
both looked upon favourably. Our export market displayed
gradually increasing activity, imparting to prices of leading
produce upward tendencies. Indigo continues firmly held
at the evreme prices of the previous private transactioas, but
we have not heard that pay further sales were if. etc(' time
our last issue. The rumours of the previous week, with
reference to the quantity sold, ars contradicted from comp.
tent authority by the statement that not above 18,000 mdse
have changed hands, which we give from hearsay, as we did
our former eommuoicaticas on this subject, which continues
to be treated with unfathomable mystery. Sugar root with
active demand, a further advance of 2 wanes being obtained.
Saltpetre in increased inquiry for general shipments, and
prices partially a shade better. Rice held for ex-
treme previous rate., but, for want of desirable qualities,
the transactions have not been extensive. Snell Lac
Ire improving inquiry, and prices of the middlisg sorts rather
stiffening. Lao dye rather quiet, but firmly held. Jute
again more looked after at unaltered rates. Opium has
aim last isle been lower, and fleets sting from 936 to 946
for Patna. Our import market has beeu duller than it was
during tho last two weeks. This may doubtless be pertly
ascribed to the approaching holidays, kat it cannot be denied
that another and more important cause is a slackening in
the irquiry for transmission to the North Western rrovinces.
The position of the market, however, Is not such as to and
grounds for discouragement, or to lead nos to apprehend that
the present &tura will be of any long duration. blanche.-
' ter geode participate in the prevailing inactivity. Mule
twist in good demand. Turkey red yarn has declined a
little, owing to fresh importations. In metals, copper has
given way. Scalier continues dull. Iron is aching, but
sill at unsatisfactory prices.
In Exchange but little has been doing at rather higher
rates, negotiations ruling for credit bills, eta months'
sight, at 241 to 2-li, document drafts 2.1 i to 2.2, but since
the arrival of the mail drawers hold oat for better terms.
Freights have receded about 5.0, and bear a downward
tendency.
' Icinoo.—We have heard of but few sales since last mail,
but the mystification of these still continuing, Remotions
are not traceable, and must therefore be taken upon rumour
with all its possible exaggerations, which we learn from good
authority have been practised the previous week, the total
quantity sold bytprivato contract helmet stated as not exceed-
ing about 18,000 tads. In our last estimate of the probable
result of the crop, via 1,16,000 adz., we Hod no alteration to
make.

Suosit.—The demand has daring the peat wak rather
inereased in activity, and transactions, even at a further rise
of 2 minas, would have ban canted to a much larger taunt,
bat for the, for this mason, unusually small storks. The
reported transactions sines our last are-19,200 bags Benue,

Ilahsrirrss.—For home shipments inquiry is on the
Increase on the score of somewhat cheaper freight, and the
preause for French and American amount continuing
iIIiAMITO, holders are in some instances standiag out for two
ernes enhanced requirements, which have been scalded to
for the middling eats in the following trannetiacia : —2OO
bags relined, 6-14 ; 4,960 bags All gunge, 6 4 to 6-10 ;
17,245 begs Chapah, 6-12 to 6-3; and low, 4-12 to 64.
Rica.—ln fair inquiry, which ratans unsatisfied, the
nearly exhausted stocks airing little of suitable qualities.
Present prospects for a largo crop are satisfactory.
RAW SILL—The present stock is much reduced, and
mostly consists of undesirable and low qualities, which re-
main neglected, whilst a good demand still cattalos for
the better and fine sorts at forum 2 to 4 anima raised prices.
