COTTON GOODS.—MAacwasraw, Sart. 6.—The market
was exceedingly quiet, both in cloth and yarns. There is
scarcely any quotable change in prices, but still there is a
constant tendency to depression. The meeting of the
British Association has attracted great attention doting the
put three days, and induoed much neglect of busiuess uuder
the peculiar circumstances affecting the market.

CORN.—Centmaroan, Sire. 6.—The weather Lea been
all that could be desired for harvest operations, and the
greater bulk is now secured in good order; the crop is a
poor one as to yield on the heavy laud and quality fine.

showers. hut harvest work has not suffered much interrup-

animated from the continuAnce of the French demand,
which has caused an advance of la. to e. per qr. to be de.
mended here this morning; millers, however, do not respond
freely, nod the business done is not extensive, holders pre-
