FRIDAY, Atilt a
COTTON.—There were considerable purchases of Cotton ea
Monday, since which the market had been very quiet; :he vales
reported quite intonsiderable, but no reduction in the mummy has
taken place: the market this morning has been enlivened by tits
accounts from Liverpool; that market had became dull, and the
prices were id. per lb. lower ; on Wednesday, however, the demand
revived : di,: sales on that day 14.000 bags, and the former prices
regained. At the close of the market to-day, notwithstanding Ma
favourable accounts from Liverpool, no sales of any consequence
were reported.
COFFEE.—The public sale yesterday consisted of Demerara
and Berbice Coffee. which went off heavily at rather lower prices.
The purchases by private contract this week are confined to parcels
of St. Domingo, which hare sold at Ws. and 695. There was a
small public sale of Demerara and Jamaica Coffee this fcretioon,
hut only two damaged lots were sold, the whole was then takcn in ;
the market looked uncommonly heavy. The price of St. Domingo
by private contract blls.
SUOAR.—The market for 3luscovades gave way 21. sod 3a.
Tuesday last, since which the sales reported are quits incoasider-
able, and to-day there is an appearance of greater firmness; fro
brown dry sugars have beet sold at Sas. and 5Ut. Tho redaction
which has taken place in refined sugars appears to facilitae• sales;
very considerable purchases are reported during the week; lea
lumps offer freely at 112 s. and Ms. Illolasses are heavy at 265. Gd.;
a few sales reported at 28s. In foreign sugars there are few sales
to report; the inquiries after white Havanrah and Brasil desert?,

RU3I, BRANDY, and lI()LLANDS.—The rum market
continues In a nominal state ; the few sales made are at prices which

neral throughout France ; the consequence has been an advonne of
