Harem, JAN. 21.—Se1Ln having given erahin priee:l.as
induced buyers to purchase more freely, and a large busi-
ness has been done at prices ranging from 395. to 425. per
cwt. for low to good refining descriptions. There is moos
doing in refined at steady rates.

COTTON.-- Lirearoot, J. 25.—The market was ex•
ceedingly buo) ant on Saturday and Monday, at an advance
of id. per lb. Since then there has been much less activity,
and as importers still show the same desire to realise as
landed, this advance is not sustained, and the week closed
with some degree of dallies.; at the quotations of Friday
last. Brasil has been in limited demand at last week's
rates ; a good business, however, has been done in Egyptian
at previous prices, holders supplying the demand freely.
There has again been considerable activity in Surat, espe-
cially at the beginning of the week, and prices advanced iL
per lb., which is sustained at the close ; the liminess " to
arrive" has also been considerable, at higher rates than
were previousobtainable. Speculators have taken 22,940
Amencan, 60 Egyptian, and 6,t,310 Surat ; and there are re-
ported for export, 7,640 American, 100 Pernam, 150 Egyp-
tian, and 8,970 Surat. This morning the demand appears
restricted ; the sales may reach 8,000 bales, including 2,000
on speculation and for export.

C'OTTON GOODS.-MANCHL,TER, JAN. 2-s.—The market
continues very dull, and the sales of cloth have been on the
most limited scale. Very few tranaactions are reported in
T cloths, and Mb. goods of this description are almost
wholly neglected. Long cloths are accumulating in stock.
Some moderate sales have taken place of light printing
cloths, 'Ai-inches wide, but there is no improvement in other
kinds. India 40-inch shirting' are much neglected, and the
Blackburn manufacturers having proposed to reduce wages
5 per cent., the operatives have met and agreed to take the
reduction, provided millowners will reduce production by
working only four days per week, so aa to give prices a
chance of recovering, the understanding being that when
the mills resume full time wages are to revert to the present
standard. The yarn market is fully as flat as that for cloths,
and for warps and cops spinners have had in some Casts to
submit to a reduction of id. per lb.

CORN.--Caznieroan, Jur. 25.—The weather becoming
milder hue caused the wheat to come to market even in
worse condition than before—such is almost unsaleable.
Best runs of new and old could with difficulty be purchased
on eerier terms ; prices as scarcely be quoted, as some
wheat wax offered at 34e. to 745. Barley and beans both
rather lower.

LINCOLN, TAN. 25.—We have had a very bad market to•
day. The wheat being in very soft condition, and millers'
wants being few, scarcely any business was done ; but the
tendency of prices was downwards. Scarcely anything
doing in barley, and prices easier.
Weitsvinta, JAN. 25.—Them was not much doing in
wheat, average qualities being is. lower, inferior 21. cheaper,
and fine rather easier. Barley was also Is. cheaper, but
ether articles unchanged. Averages of the week ending
Jan. 21 : Wheat, 1,09'2 qty., at 62a. 30.; barley, Ted qrs.,
at pfd.; oats, 20 qrs., at 265. 6d.; beans, 187 qrs., at
