COMMERCIAL. •
THE CALCUTTA MARKET.

(From the CaZcutie, Enjaslinten of the 9th of November.)
The LoLden of the 26th of September last reached
or} the 31st ult by the Peninsular and Oriental Com-
pany's slo:whip Alma.
Since the &Ito of our 1- :d a decided improvement has
taken place in our trade, caused by the increase of confidence
among all classes as ta the ea rlysuppression of disturbances
in thoso districts where, for want of sufficient troops the Go-
vernment has as yet been tumble to establish its authority.
During the past fortnight wo ha-. 3 L t almost-daily arrivals
of vessels with troops frcm wo leave no L',utsbt
ere long we shall see affiirs in the Upper Provinme placed
in the same position as before die brealda,g out of the
mutinies.
In exports we have a larger business to report, bat the
demand has been mostly on speculation. • The indigo itiar7
ket opened with the sale by private contract of some
parcels. In sugar again almost nothing has done for
the English market. Saltpetre has been in better demand,
tea an advance in prices has taken places. No change in
rice, a-moderate business being in progress. Raw silk in-
active,
with a drooping tendency. Conahs have been in a
better position. Hides in active request, at ."enhanced
prices. No change in jute. Oil reeds continue to 'sell
freely, in some cases at higher prices.
Our import market has shared the general improvement
in a larger measure during the past fortnight, and the ad.
vices from several up-country marts, where trade has com-
menced to revive and confidence has been restored, induced
native dealers to enter freely into operations. In British
cotton piece goods large sales were effected during the last
week at considerably higher prima, the
m demand being
chiefly for shirtings, jaconets, arlapollams, and mule
twist. The last, few days, however, there has been almo6t
a lull in the market, dealers being hold back by the stielden
large rise iu prices, and likewise by a report- spread in the
bazaar, though we believe on no reliable authority, of the
plunder of one of the great commercial marts in the north
by the. ralcls

from the fact of payments

Bank of Beneal is likewise decidedly better, the statement

the amount of loans on deposits of

notes and post-hills from 1,18,50,425-10.6 to 1,08,37,478-

finances is the fact of advances now being made on deposit

et Government securities to all parties except to those
dialers and speculators who have already obtained loans.

THE BOMBAY MARKET.

RPM ON TIM STATE OF THE MARKET FRO) THE 3D TO

THE 16TH OF NOVEMBER.
(From the Bombay Times.)
The English mail, with advices from London of the 10th
Oct., reached us on the morning of Friday, the 16th inst.,
per Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamship Pekin.
Our money market during the past fortnight has, as an-
ticipated in our last, become very much tighter, and the
banks have raised their rates of interest 3 per cent, all
round, and interest now ranges from 9 to 12 per cent.
A further decline has taken place in Government securi-
ties. We quote Fours 77 to 78, and Fives 90. We have
no change to report in our local joint-stocks.
IMPORTS.
Cotton Pieoe Goods—The market has remained steady
during the past fortnight. The stocks on hand are small;
the business transacted has been limited ; and, as the
holders in no way show any particular anxiety to part with
their goods, a favonsoble change may be anticipated.
Gray longloths are in very favourable demand, and a rise
in the prices may be looked for. Gray domestics are in
fair request ; gray Madapollams of 3lbs. have advanced a
little ; and gray jaconets are scarce.
Bleached and Fancy Goods.—Bleached goods have con.
tinned to be in good demand at former prices.
Cotton Yarns.—These articles have improved in price.
Male twist fs in very excellent demand.
Exchange.—Bank and China drawn bills have sold for
2s. 2d. to 2s. 21d. ; local credits and documents fetching
2•. 24d. to 2s. 24d. On Calcutta, sight is 1001; on China,
60 days' sight, 219.
