BRISTOL, MARCH I.—The sales on the spot have been
limited, and the market closes with a very quiet appearance
at rather lower rates. Refiners' produce sells slowly rat
about 6d. decline. Rums : Mauritius, Is. 9d. to la. 191.
per proof gallon. Molasses : uo sales to report.

COTTON GOODS. Mascusirres, MARCH I.—The
complaints are somewhat loud of depression in trade. There
are some few sales from day to day, but mostly of a very
limited character, and wholly inadequate to relieve producers,
who are now very large holders of stocks. There have been
some few gala of printing cloth on French account, and
this is the only new feature in the market. For long cloths
and T cloths there is no demand worthy of mention, sad
prices continue to decline. Printing cloths are very low is
price, and irregular. In India 40-inch shirting', and also in
36. inch shirting', the business bears a small proportion to
the production. and prices are weaker even than on Tuesday.
The prospect of a renewal of the turn-out at Blackburn is
looked to rather with satisfaction than otherwise, the dad.
rability of reducing the production being very generally re.
cognised. Yarns are still much depressed. Spinners of capi.
tal too limited to enable them to stock have become more
importunate to sell, and are willing to make some reduction
to secure sides. The depression is felt more or less in all
descriptions of yarn, and the business done for some days
past is regarded as insignificant in amount. So general an
absence of demand for all markets can scarcely be remem.
bered.

CORN.—CHILIISPORD, MARCH I.—We had a Rain
supply of wheat at market to-day, and much out of

LIVERPOOL, MARCH I.—There was barely an avenge
attendance of buyers at this day's market, and the bonen
passing in wheat and dour was onlyon a moderate scalsovith.
out quotable change in value, though prime were irregular.
Indian corn attracted little attention, and the quotation
of this day sennight may be repeated. Bata and edema
were both dull at sale. Beans steady at full price. Pen
and barley little dealt in. The market closes without eat.
