MARKET&

LACE AND HONTERY.—Norrnionsw, Jour 16.—Lace : Bird•
nem remains much as it was, Tambourin being homy in finishing
late orders—principally shipping orders. Hosiery: Trade con-
tinues about the same as hitherto, there still being little improve-
ment. Nest of the orders from the States are now completed.
There are yet • few inquiries from the Havannah market. Yarn is
Arm at late rates. On the whole hosiers are pretty well employed.

COTTON.—Lavamoox, JULY 16.—Quirt market, at yesterdays
prk ea. Intimated eaten 8000 bales, including 1,500
'peculation and export. 10d. to ltd. ; b.*
Perham, 10? d. to 114 d. ; 100 AanAtOrter,iftairJ. to I Id.; 800 Yuri°
and Bahia, 10d. to 110. ; sao Egyptian, 120. to 151. ; 50 Smyrna,
9d. ; 2,000 Burst, 70. to 90.

COTTON GOODB.—If Arca urea, Tiny 16.—Three is nothing
in the commercial advice, from foreign rmarkete, or in the state
or prospect& of the home trade, to give any new impetus to
biomass and in this market we have the same !Moen and
depresuon which have exited so long. The cotton market is
active, with fall prices, but prima here have cumed to follow the
lead of the raw material. The storks of cloth and goo& of other
kinds are considerable, with a large supply continually coming
fcaward, and buyers are unwilliog to operate except at very low
rates. In fact they have no en anent in the condition of
any market to do otherwise. The y offers they make are at
low prices, and the tendency of the market is continually to a de-
cline of values.

WOOL AND WORWTED.—Bas ovum., it/LT 16.—The wool
market is in a more settled condition than it was a week ago.
Thcogh a little more wool is perhaps changing hands, and the
tone n steadier than it was, there is no marked improvement in
the demand, and there is no quotable change in MOIL The
pressure of the new clip is not so severely felt, and staplers, having
more confidence in the value of their wool, hold with greater firm-
DM. Good Lincoln wool commands, for hogs, led. to mid. per
lb., and for withers led. to leid. The wools chiefly in demand,
however, are of the tower class, which are of course worth pre-
=litty lees money. The yarn trade is quieter than ft was.
fe a steady Mennen doing on home account.
The shipping merchants are doing a very scant business.
Single ee's for Russia has been more an demand than of late,
especially is the lower quantities. Spinners are well
supplied with orders, quotations are firm, and in some exceptional
cans, where ceders are running out, rakes have a softening
tendency. In w merchants continue busy in the execution
oes
of old orders, but not doing much in the shape of new busi-
ness. The demand for home, as well as abroad, is unusually
meagre. A small business is doing for China and the East.
Prices are tolerably steady.

CONN.—Hamner, Juts 16.—The supply to-day was by no
means lame, and the demand was slow at about 2d. per bush 4
decline. New iumphis made 7s. SI. to Bs. 3d.; old, 7n 9d. to
Ps. &I. per bushel. Very little bade: shown. and were on

the demand was steady, rather mom money Ming obtained, 3N.

DEVIZR% JULY 18.—We were largely supplied with wheat to-
day; but the brilliant harvest weather and-the reporta of the
wheat crop generally have an evident effect upon prices, and we
have to note a reduction of from 51. to 3s. a quarter on wheat.

and at these figures a deal was sold by the close of the
market. (Mod l tnh oats brought beater prices. Bent white

day, but only a very small offer of corn. The wheat trade was
very q M • further decline in prices, the highest price we
heard of Ms. per qr., and the range down to 8114. No
English barley was offered ; foreign sold in retail quantities at
about late rates, 365. to 9E64. per qr. Oats were fully as dear in
the few sales effected, picas being from Ws. to 321. per qr.
Beans ea at from 6ts. to 60s. per qr., and are very sparingly
offered on accoemt of the strong Might with which the new crop
is affected. Flour sold to-day at Ma. to Ms. per sack. We had •
thanderettem and • fall of nun in the afternoon.

0 toucasria, Jima Is.—The weather continues dry and hot, and
complaints are now becoming very general of the want of rain for
the pastures, root mope, and spring corn. Wheat cutting Iris
commenced, and will be very general in this district in a few
days. We have smell supplies of English wheat at this and the
neighbouring markets, from which the millers purchase sparingly,
at Is. per qr. Is money. Fine foreign is taken in retail at a
similar reduction, secondary samples altogether neglected.
Orinding barley is in good request, and the turn dearer.

liaseayaraa, Jett 16.—Our market Oda morning wa. fairly
attended. There was scarcely any Englidi wheat offering, and
its value is merely nominal. Oallf.xwian and Chaim' whits: were
9d. to td. per rental dearer, while all tart.; of foreign red were
rather cheaper. Flour was in limited retitled, and all but the
fined qualities were 6d. per wick lower. Oats wore firm, and oat-
