COTTON.—LrviszooL, Nov. 7.—Our market is ex•
tremely firm to-day. The des are 25,000 balm, including
14,520 American, 84d. to 121 d. ; 10,000 :Surat,

I'2}d. Of which 15,000 are for speculation and export.
The week's import is 47,361 hales.

WOOL AND WORSTED.—MEIADFORD, Nov. 7.—The
cry is still for lustre wools, and staplers consider themselves
fortunate who have a stock. The consumption just now
seems to be limited to this class of wools, and good lots an
bought up with much avidity. The stocks in staplers'
hands, however, are very light, though a good many lots
have been bought in the country this week. The farmers
have been so firm in their demands that little room
left for a profitable trade, even at the carrell
high rates. The price of long wools must 6e
quoted this morning as decidedly against the
buyer. Other wools are, generally speaking, neglected,
and prices may be quoted u just firm at the rates of La
Thursday. The spinners of lustre yarns are busily employel,
and their productions find a ready sale at an advance is
price consequent upon the rise in the price of the raw iv,
terial. The greatest quietness prevails in every other clue
of yarns. The power of production, with the demand fur
America removed, is too great, and many of our large spit.
flees have more or less machinery standing, some adopting
the alternative of running short time. There is a good bust.
Dees doing in pies* goods, in fancy sorts, for home, and eve.
Melly for France. Many large mats have orders in hand
which will occupy them for months.

HOSIERY AND LACE TRADRU.—Norrmaaa, Nov.
7.—There has been rather more doing in plain nets for the
home trade during the past week, but as it has been only
in consequence of the anticipated rise in price on the present
stocks being sold off,it is Sot a very healthy symptom. It
is certain that as yarns are now f) per mit. higher than the
average price, and are still rising, that these stocks cannot
be replaced at anything like the rates at which they are
being sold. The trade in cotton nets is quiet, but the
demand for black milk laces and quahogs keeps up some
appearance of animation. A few large orders have been
placed for India, and some smaller ones for Germany and
France, though the prospects of trade with the latter are
not very cheering just at present. The hosiery trade a
about in the same condition as last week, being, if possible,
still more affected by the constant stiffening of the price of
the raw material. This fact limits production in both staple
trades to the greatest possible extent, and we fear, there-
fore, that employment will soon become more scarce than it
was during the inclement months of last winter.

CORN. —BIEIGNONAIt, Nov. 7.—At this day's market
there was a limited supply of new wheat, and buyers were
compelled to pay an advance of ed. t, Is. per qr. on fine

ILincgairran, Nov. 7.—Our market this morning
was well attended, but transactions in wheat and flour
were of a retail character, holders generally requiring •
slight advance in prices. To make sales, however, it was
neoesauy to accept previous rates. Oats were ld. per 4511 e.
cheaper, and oatmeal without alteration in value. Egyptian
beans and Indian corn were each rather dearer.
