NEw ORLEANS : Receipts fir the week ending 21st
Aulenst, 181 biles. Exports to Liverpool, 5 352 bales.
This market, since the date of our last report, has been
very quiet, business having been limited by the extreme
scarcity of desirable parcels for export. The s .les for the
week foot up 2,350 bales, taken principally for Great 13.-i-
-tain, market closing firmly, with a strong upward tendency
at our currency, which, for the middling and better grades,
is further advanced as to lc per lb. Freight to Liverpool,
Montix : Receipts for the week ending 21st August,
131 bales. No foreign exports. Daring the week
under review, the market here has been almost at a
stand; prices continue to be very firm, bat in the ab-
sence of anything like busin-ss, the quotations here-
with must be considered entirely nominal. Sales for the
week, 700 bales, mostly for o'er domestic min iticturers.
No ship loading for Liverpool.
CHARLESTON : The issue of the weekly market report
having been postponed to let September, I learn from the
papers the business for three days only. The transac-
tions were limited to 231 bales; prices being so irregeler
that it is impossible to give correct quotations, The
annexed are continued from last week, as also is the table`
of receipts, &c. No ship loading for Liverpool,

The market for State and Western Flour is eery heavy,
owing to the crisis in monetary affairs; prices may be
quoted at 5 to 10 cants per brl. lower, but rates are very

brls. at 5 do's 75c to 6 dols 90e for common to good
State; 6 dolt 20c to 6 dole 35a for extra State;

Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, lowa, &c., and 6 dols 150 to
7 dole 50c for extra ditto. At the close the ten lency
was decidedly downward, and sates could not be tffeeted
to responsible parties at anything over our inside quota-
tion for the common brand,. Southern Flour is also
