IMPORTS FROM EUROPE.
Briti,h Cotton Piece Goods—Since our last report,
dated the 20th ult., we have continued to experience a
good demand for nearly all descriptions of the more
useful Manchester cloths. Gray shirtings of all sorts
have sold largely, but demand has been chiefly for best
kinds. White shirtings and jaconets in fine qualities
have been in good request, but common makes are some-
what lower in value. Prints and coloured goods gene-
rally have been doing well; some of the lighter Glasgow
fabrics being scarce realized high prices, while others
continue much neglected. Mule twist has not shown
much alteration, 30s. and common 40a. are, however, a
shade lower in value, and not easy to sell, while 50s. and
npwards are in good demand at former rates. Theim-
provement noticed in our last respecting metals was of
very short duration, and at present time the market is
dull for all sorts.
Gray Shirtings Considerable importations bare
come to hand recently, and sales of all sorts since our
last amount to about 60,000 pieces. Low reed goods
have been too freely supplied, and, in consequence are
again of rather less value ; fine and good makes are
wanted, and prices for all 66 to 72-reed cloths are
fully supported ; 45 inch goods continue eagerly sought
after.

... 3 263 chests,
236 chests.

Whito Shirtings—A fair demand prevails for good
and fine makes, of which the market is only scantily
supplied, but low and medium cloths, which were sell-

ins lately ut Company's rupeos 5 to 5.8 per piece, are
quite overdone in quantity, and considerably low in
value. - Low prices, however, have failed to tempt buyers
to any extent, and the total sales, including all quali-
ties since our last report, scarcely exceeding 15,000
pieces. Stocks on hand, low and medium quality, are
rather large.
White Twills—Continue in good demand, and, of
course, prices are well supported in the absence of large
supplies.
Madapollams—There is very little change in reference
to grays, but demand is by no means extensive. White
goods are interfered with by the low prices of com-
mon bleached shirtings, so that reported sales do not ex•
coed 1,000 pieces; of grays the sales reach to about 7,500
pieces. _ _

Jaconets—Medium and good qualities of grey goods
have been in slightly better inquiry, but buyers do not
come forward with any spirit, so that sales have been of
a very limited nature. Demand for bleached continues
good, and, excepting common qualities, prices are very
well eupported.
White Cambrics—Only about 1,300 pieces of all sorts
and widths have found purchasers since our last, and
altogether the market continues ♦ery dull.
White Figured Cambrics and Shirtings—A fair in-
quiry exists, and at rather easier rates sales go on pretty
readily.
Lappets—A few fine and good pattern Swiss makes,
sell readily for holiday consumption at fair rates, but all
other kinds continue extremely dull and difficult of sale,
even at very low prices.
Book-muslins—Coarso kinds suitable for Burmah
come forward very slowly, and, being much wanted,
their value is fully maintained at our former quotations,
say lr. 9a. to Ir. 10a. (Company's) per piece for No. 1,
of first-rate make. Wide kinds continue in lively de-
mand.
Mull-mulls—There is more inquiry for fine sorts, and
a fair amount of business is doing in common descrip-

tions.
Turkey Red Mulls—Latterly a better feeling has
shown itself for these goods, and sales have been made
at improved prices.
Turkey Red Printed Mulls—Some few good patterns
sell pretty readily, but, generally speaking, there is not
much doing in these.
Turkey Red Twills and Cambrics—Narrow cambrics
and wide twills continue to do well, but in others very

little has been done.
Prints and Chintzes—There is still a good demand for
all sorts of Turkey red French chintzJs, also Bengal
stripes and neutral chintzes. Most sorts of prints arc
now doing better than for some time past, excepting
muslin dress pieces, of which the market is overdone.
I)hooties and Scarfs—The approaching holidays have
caused a more lively demand, and dhooties especially are
selling much better this year than they were last.
Woollens—There is a moderate demand for the most
useful kinds at fair prices.
Mule Twist—Late arrivals have added considerably
to stocks, but the reported sales since our last issue
amount to 803 bales. No. 40's are a shade lower in
value, especially inferior qualities, and Nos. 20 and 30
are very little wanted, but all other numbers, particu-
larly the high counts, are in brisk demand, and bringing
high rates.
_ _

Coloured Yarns—Sales of Turkey rcd, as will be seen
from the following report have been rather heavy, but
there is no improvement in value, and still a great want
of animation amongst dealers. Orange is a trifle lower,
but green maintains its former value.
Copper—At the date of our last report the market for
this metal was looking somewhat better, owing to im-
proved accounts from Mirzapore, but lately it has again
become dull, and prices then current have been with
difficulty maintained. Present quotations:—Sheathing
Company's rs., 40-8 to 40-12; Tile sicca rs., 33-12 to
34; Braziers' Company's rs., 38 to 40 fy. md.
Iron—Stocks are heavy, and prices of most sorts have
still a downward tendency. Our quotations are,—Sheet
Co.'s rs. 4.8 to 4-10; English flat, bar and bolt, Co.'s
rs. 2-9 to 2-10; rail-rod Co.'s rs 3-12 to 4 per fy. md.
Steel—A sale of 600 mds. Swedish is reported, at 6
Co.'s rs. per fy. md.
Lead—This metal continues in fair request.
Speller remains much neglected, and its value chiefly
nominal; a sale of 1,500 mds. is at length reported, how-
ever, at Ct. rs. 7-F per fy. mds., but there is a most un-
example d want of demand for the upper provinces, con-
sidering the season of the year.
Beer—The two principal brands, Allsopp's and Bass's,
remain at former value, but are without report of sales.
