MARKETS.-(TIIIS DAY )

CORN EXCHANGE.
Supplies small, very small, except for Barley. The thick fog was
against business. There was a firmness in the prices of Wheat and
Oats. The holders of Beans, Peas, and Barley must have taken lower
prices if they had sold. We do not alter our quotations of any kind.

PROVISION MARKET.
This is one of the chief days in the week for this market. The trade
is very limited here, as it is everywhere else, and prices unaltered.

TALLOW MARKET.
P.Y.C. has secured more business ; and we quote the price to.day
higher than we did yesterday. Quotation, 475. for P.Y.C. The
comparative shortness of the stock is one cause of the rise. The stock
is about 17,000 casks.

COLONIAL MARKETS.
The chief business advertizcd for to-day was in Bengal Sugar, Rice
and Coffee of Brazil growth, and for a Friday the business
light. There is something approaching to heaviness in these Mar-
kets, which the news received from Canada this morning is not
likely to remove or mitigate. Such is the state of the Markets
generally, and such the accounts of Stock, that little or no
variation in prices is yet expected. When we write the report, prices
of Sugar, Rice, and Coffee were much as before. Tea at public sale
sells very slowly to-day, and the tendency of prices is downward. Rum
is very firm. Cotton nothing doing. Spices are. unvaried. All busi-
ness in Canadian produce is suspended. The imports at our customs
are short just now.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET.
The Market to-day has been remarkably dull, and the sales are only
about 1,000 hags. There has, however, been no further change in
prices. 120 Surat, sd. a 61d.; 30 Maranham, 911 60 Egyptian,
9 %d. a 10d. ; the remainder American, 7 4d. a B%d.
