LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, TUESDAY. Opening
Report.—This market opened with less inquiry to-day, but
prices are steady. Sales will probably be 12,000 bales. Imports
not reported.
MANCHESTER TRADE REPORT, TUESDAY.—Our market
does not as yet respond to the activity in the Liverpool cotton
market, resulting in large daily sales at advancing rates. Here
both spinners and manufacturers find they cannot sell
at the necessary advance in prices, caused by the
enhanced value of cotton. Buyers will not follow the
market and pay the prices asked, except when compelled to
do so for immediate wants. Hence in cop yarn for the home
trade spinners have sold moderately at an advance of one
farthing, though they generally ask double that. In fundle
yarn for shipment there is almost nothing doing, owing to the
advanced rates demanded. In cloth the transactions are few and
individually small for immediate use, for which an advance has had
to be paid. The large buyers remain inactive as they have many
goods contracted for and not yet delivered, and because they
do not beieve in the present excitement and in the advance of
cotton. This feeling is evidently caused by the expectation of an
armistice and a speedy and honourable termination of the war;
but the accounts this morning shew the peace prospects to
be very uncertain. Still prices to-day are nominally above
those of Friday, about id per lb. on yarns, and 41d. per piece
on shirtings. All round it is hoped the excitement in cotton
will terminate to-day.
LEEDS TRADE REPORT, TUESDAY.—The woollen market
to-day has been quite the opposite of Saturday's, because there
has been little doing. Inquiries as to the cause led to the dis-
covery that the hopes of peace between the belligerents are delu-
sive. In no department was there any inquiry, except among
waterproof tweeds and victories. The only buyers here were a
few home merchants. Prices are as miserably low as they have
ever been. Some orders occasionally are given out for
spring coatings. The near approach of the wool
sales unsettled manufacturers as to the current value, and
merchants hoid oft in the hope of getting bargains. The do-
mestic and engine coal trade is good, and shipments via Hull
from Allerton, Normanton, &c., are rather large. Some coal
orders are finding work for all unemployed, if they are not
unionists. The hot blast iron furnaces are working more iron
stone than can be found in the immediate neighbourhoood. The
making of tools and machines for Government goes on as
largely as ever. This briskness is expected to last for months.
Thu large iron works are more fully employed than usual in the
autumn. The railway goods traffic hence is unusually brisk,
and trucks are scace.

CLEVELAND IRON TRADE REPORT, TUESDAY. —The at-
tendance at the exchange to-day was an average one, and less
money was taken for immediate delivery. Little business was
done, however, on account of the uumaturod state of the nego-
tiations between France and Prussia. Probably the declaration
of peaco will be succeeded by a healthy reaction in
the principal local industry. The warrant store remains at
14,139 tons. There is nothing remarkable in the finished iron
trade beyond what has been previously reported. Prospectively
every branch continues dull. Engineering is active. The coal
and coke trades are the most busy, deportation by rail to London
being exceedingly heavy, and rates very firm.
CLYDE CRUSHED SUGAR MARKET, TUESDAY.—There
was a moderate business done at this market to-day. Prices as
before.

The barometer has recovered considerably throuirh-
out our islands from the very low readings reported-on
Monday, but is still below 29 inches in the north of Scot-
land. The change has been greatest at Thurso, and
during the night a fresh but slight decrease has occurred
at Pensance. The highest reading is at Dover, and
exceeds by 0.62 inches that at Thurso. Temperature
has fallen somewhat, except at Valencia and
Pembroke. The gale of the last two days has dis-
appeared from our coasts, and the winds are now
generally light or moderate. In direction they are chiefly
westerly, but have veered to the north-eastward at Ply-
mouth and Penzance (with continued rain), and to
N.N.W. at Valencia. A strong W.N.W. breeze still
holds at Ardrossan. Some rain has fallen, except in the
east coast of England, where the sky has cleared. Else-
where cloudy weather is prevalent. The sea has gone
down, except al Ardrossan.
THE TIEN-TBINMASSACRE.—The Chinese magnate
Tseng-kwo-fou has made a memorandum of his investiga-
tion mto the massacre at Tientsin. He reports that the
first cause of tie disturbances lay in the circumstance that
the missionaries were supposed to be implicated in the
kidnappings that were carried on by bad men. No proof,
however, has been obtained of the complicity of the
foreign missionaries themselves in the abduction of
children. With regard to the tearing out of eyes and
hearts, it turns out to be a mere invention ; but it
is useless to seek for any foundation of facts
which could have given rise to such accusa-
tions. When the most careful inquiry was made
into the truth of the reports not a single proof could be
adduced in favour of the statements made against the
missionaries. It is, however, impossible to ascertain the
source from whence all these false rumours originated.
"It is my wish," says Tseng-kwo-fou in conclusion,
" that the Emperor should promulgate an edict
in all the provinces of the Empire, openly declaring
that the misdeeds laid to the charge of the missionaries
in those ' anonymous placards are nothing but
calumnies ; so that the wrong done to foreigners b3r these
slanders may be expiated, the doubts of. the Chinese
people and literati dissolved, and that every man
in the Empire may learn and know the true state of
things. In this way it is hoped that the distrust existing
at present between Chinese and foreigners may be termi-
nated, and that the hatred and illwill between our people
and Christians may gradually disappear."
CACAOINE. —Cacoa nibs on the removal of the oil fall
nto powder, and this powder is cacaoine. Cacd.oine contains
neither sugar nor any other admixture whatever. Cacaoine makes
one of the lightest, thinnest of warm drinks, and is the most de
sirable of all for use in the later hours of the day. Cacaoine, by
reason of the ingenious method by which the oil is removed, pre-
serves all the fine natural flavour of cacao nibs.—Prepared only
