Cotton Piece Goods_The market has been tolerably
steady, and, for the season of the year, the inquiry has
been unusually active. Dealers have been purchasing
to some extent on speculation. The fall of rain at the
Presidency and in the Deccan has been all that could be
desired; in many parts of Goozerat, however, it has not
been so satisfactory.
Gray shirtings, 40 inches, of all descriptions have ad-
vauced 1 to 3 annas per piece, excepting 48 reed, which
remains as before; 4, inch in inquiry, and has advanced
3 annas per piece.
Cotton Yarn—With the exception of 20's and 20 and
30 water, of fine quality, which are in demand for the
Arabian market, there has been but little doing. Dyed
Orange and Turkey red both dull.
Metals—Since our last report all descriptions of iron
have remained in statu quo. Leads also remains without
change. Spelter, smait plates in slight request. Cop-
per is 'A about change in value; the market for all de-
scriptions is tolerabiy s;pady.
