IMPORTS.

Cotton Piece Goods—A fair amount of business has
been done during the past fortnight, although our large
purchasers from Mharwar are still absent. The arrivals
of fresh supplies have been very few. Prices for almost
all descriptions continue unremunerative.

quiry, with an advance in price from la. to 2a. per
piece ; 40 in. up to 52 reed very dull of sale, but a
good inquiry exists for 56 reed and upwards. The in-
quiry has led to several sales " to arrive" having been
made.
Gray Maddapolams will remain exceedingly depressed,
prices continuing unprecedentedly low.

dull of sale ; while Glb. and upward continues to create
a good inquiry. Several sales have been made to arrive

little asked for.
Gray Domestics of 40 in. and heavy make are scarce,
and much asked after.
