MARKETS.

SMITIIFIELD,FRID•Ir. Frs. 10.
Our supply of Beasts thia ntoming has been rather lusts, and a
heaviness has pervaded sales, which could only be made at a re.
ducttna of 2d. on the terms of Monday last. The market locks
firmer for Mutton than on that day, and the demand Is quite britk
for the finest qualities at .sv. 4d. In the Veal trade we conti.'er
ourselves 41 per stone below last Monday, but with that mluctica
we look to the whole here being disposed of.

Ot'lld)FOßD, FEB. 4.
We hall a fair supply of Wheat to-day, the trade extremely
heavy, and on the whole about 10s. per load lower—but at. Melt
reduction a considerable clearance was effected. Barley was is
great plenty; and the sales made were at a reduction ot 11. per
quarter.

FRIDAY, TEL 10.
COTTON.--The sales of Cotton this week are eeticosted at IMO
bags, of which nearly 700 bags are Pemams, at 10id. • 10fd. ; the
few Bengal. and Surats sold are also at prices a shade lower tart
last weak. The accounts from Liverpool this morning state that
market again heavy ; the prices at a small reduction.
SUGAR.—The Sugar market has remained all the week it a
very languid and depressed state; the brown descriptions cuntirae
particularly heavy, and a reduction of fully Is. per cart. must be
stated in the prices. In the Refined market the purchases re, °nett
are quite inconsiderable; brown Lumps are 711 a. Molasses 27'. el.
The quotations of Foreign and East India Sugars are nominal. By
public sale this forenoon, 128 chests Brazil Sugar; the white all
taken In, 3+ls. a 40s. . • the brown sold 265. 6d. a 275. 6d.
MOLASSES.—By public sale to.day, 46 puncheons inferior
Antigua Molasses sold 20s. 64. and 21s. fah
SPICES.—The quotations are entirely nominal, on account of
the near approach of the East India House sale; yesterday by
public sale good licht Pepper sold at 4}_d. a 40. 200 bags.
RU3I. BRANDY, and HOLI.A NOS.—The demand for Runt
has subsided, yet the prices are firm, on account of few bottlers
being inclined to seli ; the quotations of proof Leeward. is s:.11
2s. 4d., but it could scarcely be obtained in the present state of the
trade. Brandy has given way ; parcels on the quay being sold at
3s. 3d., for which the holders were previously eking 3s. 41. a
ls. 6d. Pale Geneva, per old Galion, 2s.
TALLOW and II BHP.—The nearest price to.day is 33r. br
Tallow: and 431. for Hemp.
FRU IT.—There are several arrivals of Currants, Turkey Raisins.
Figs, /t.c.; the demand continues very limited, and to attempt to
force sales at the present period would have the effect of consitler-
ably lowering the prices ; the stock of almost every description of
Fruit, from the stagnant state of the trade for several weeks past,
has accumulated very considerably. and it has become almost Ll 7.
saleable in consequence. Someof the importers have deternUr.,l
to try the foreign markets, and have become exporters; there is
also Independently a little doing fur export.
RICE.—By public sale this forenoon-50 brls. 110 half Ws.
New Carolina Rice, 355., nearly all sold.
IN Dloo.—The Guatemala Indigo yesterday at public sale was
taken in ; the Madras and Manilla sold at 3s. per lb. lower, but
cannot be taken as a ciiterion of market prices; no purchases of
Indigo by private contract are reported.

Tns Grove TRADE.—The memorial from the glove-
manufacturers of this City, to the Board of Trade, was
presented by Col. Lyon, on Saturday. No answer has
yet been received. Although there is now no expectation
that Ministers will postpone the admission of foreign glorcs
beyond July, we may yet hope that some regulations be-
neficial to the British manufacturer will be adopted, as we
observe that Mr. Iluskisson replied to the Deputation from
the Silk Trade, "that he was ready to limit the number
of ports of importation, or to concur in any reasonable re-
gulation to insure a full valuation of the goods imported.
and the addition of the full duty of 30 per cent." This
concession the glove manufacturers unsuccessfully at-
tempted to obtain of ministers when the admission of
French gloves was first proposed ; but as the boon is now
offered to the silk manufacturer., it will of course be given
to the glove trade. It has afforded us great pleasure to
learn that our fair countrywomen are expressing a di ter-
mination not to wear French gloves. Were this patrieve
resolution generally adopted, our manufacturers could hare
nothing to fear.—Worcester Journal.
