tldi EY MARKET

COMMERCI/AL INTRT.tiGENCE.

CITY, Two O'CLoCK.
The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday closed
Itith a heavy appearance, and prices of all kinds
!ere
Without change. The sales were estimated
8,000 bales, including 500 American, 500 Per-
!are and Maranham, 61d. to 711. ; 690 Egyptian,
qd. to 10d. per lb.
The Colonial Produce Markets during the past
Week have been rather quiet, but the values of
lot
of the principal staples have been supported.
sugar there has been a good demand, and an
la
-venee of 6d. to ls. per cwt. has occurred.
C°
Faye been
has been dull of sale. In rice transactions
ye been limited, and tea has ruled much the
h
Ille as previously. For spices there was not much
lit:ecie°irY, and mace is rather cheaper. Rum has
in more request, and tallow has ruled quiet.
The Paris Wool Market, which has been so
eo'ive during the last few months with some ap-
prehensions amongst the manufacturers of a scar-
(lt3" of supplies, has resumed its usual steady ap-
pearance, and the high prices are beginning to
leeede. This state of affairs has been influenced
the withdrawal of some American orders,
oaccount of the stocks of fine fabrics lying
hand at New York, and the large pur-
h.'s% made by the manufacturers of Arts-
4lien. Wool in the London Market. The
~f 4, ect of this upon the ensuing clip will be to
i'
'Preoiate its value from 20 to 15 per cent.
th"e Wool growers, however, are standing out for
th p said eir c
eir rices, and tho who were obliged to close
tieontracts have paid from lf. 35c. to if. 50c.
pot half-kilogramme. Advices from Marseilles re-
kstt anactive market there, with the following
(I‘.'Portations :-380 bales from Alexandria, 380
iLtte from Tunis, 435 ditto from Casabianca, and
bales from Constantinople. At the sales by
kti'tion several hundred bales of Buenos Ayres
r)°lNvere sold at former prices, and the quotations
6eLierally— were well maintained.
141141glish Stocks have been well supported this
()ruin, and a moderate amount of business has
:e° done at firm prices. The recent arrivals of
1: Precious metals, the expectation of a fa-
ti ttrahle Bank return, and easier feeling ex-
Oaed with regard to the American dispute,
oe imparted firmness to the market. Con-
eopened at 95 to 951 for Account, and
have since been 951 for both buyers and
frlr. There is at present a pause in the dealings,
o °Perators awaiting the telegraphic despatch

ti.'B share for 5001• in the Theatre-Royal Drury-lane.
