(From the London Arc-"..l"—ePrice Ceirrost.l
FRIDAY, Jawr 10.
COTTON.—There is a complete stagnation in the Cotton
market ; some sales are reported to be made privately, but the
particulars have not transpired. The public sale on Tuesday at-
tracted some interes ; 4lB bales of Manilla Cotton, very clean, of
short staple and much cut, sold at 13ad. a 131 d. in bond ; 1110 Ma-
dras, 45 bursts, and a small parcel Carriaeou, were all taken in.
The letters from Liverpool this morning state that market exceed-
ingly heavy ; only 1,200 bags sold in three days.
SUGAM.—The demand for Muscovatlea daring the present'
week has been steady ; the sales average 1,000 hhds. per day ;
there is not the slightest variation in the prices ; parcels suttable for
Refining command very high prices; Grocery descriptions rate
low in proportion. In the Refined market there would be extensive !
purchases of low goods, but scarcely any parcels appear on sale.!
ow lumps 675. ; the fine goods are in plentiful supply, and may
be purchased on lower terms. Molasses 211 s. In Foreign Sugars
there is considerable briskness; 180 chests Pernams, white, sold all
round at 465. ; yellow Ilavannah sold at 38a., fine white at 645.
COFFEE.—The public sales this week have gone off with more
spirit, and the middling descriptiors of Jamaica yesterday at prices
2s. higher. There were three public sales of Coffee brought for-
ward this forenoon, consisting of large parcels of Cuba, of St.

good ordinary Jamaica 655. ; middling 88.1. and 90s. ; good
middling fitis. The Coffee Market generally is rather higher to-
day, particularly Jamaica, with every prospect-of a further im.
provement.
IRISH PROVISIONS.—There is no alterations in Provisions;
Duch Butters are very firm at the late advance.
TOBACCO.—The only purchases lately reported in Tobacco is
about 120 hhds. of the new arrivals ; Virginias 4d. and qd.

RUM, BRANDY, and lIOLLANDS.—The holders of Rum
have in several instances given way this week ; parcels of proofs are
sported at Is. 9d.; and 60 puncheons four and five ove,, are stated
to be sold at the Name price ; but the reduction cannot be reported
general In Brandy there is no alteration ; it is indeed reported
that very large parcels have been destroyed at Bordeaux by fire,
but it has produced no effect: parcels of last year's housed 3s. 3d. ;
cargoes to arrive 3s. Id. In Geneva no sales are reported.
SPICES.—The request for Pepper has rather subsided; all
other East India Spica are dull, and nearly at nominal quotations.

CORN. EXCHANGE, Fa MAY, Juxz 10.
Our supplies this week consist of 5,200 sacks of Flour ; 3,500
quarters of Wheat, 220 quartets of Barley, and 19,700 quartets of
W Oats. Beal fine heat being scarce and wanted, needy buyers
were compelled to submit to an advance on Monday's currency,
but we had not any demand beyond that for immediate consump-
tion ; the trade continues in much suspense, in consequence of the
Parliament delaying from time to time coming to a decision on the
measures now before them. Barley, Beans, and Pease may all be
stated rather dearer than on Monday. The extensive supply of
Oats has checked the demand ; the trade, in consequence was dull
to-day, sod rather lower than on Monday.
