EirußW MARKET.

Cotton—There is cu little cotton at market now for
sale that it is difficult to give correct quotations founded
on recent transactions. The tendency of late advises
trom England has been to reduce the pride here; but as
we have just said there is very little doing. As remarked
in our last circular, considerable parcels are in course 01
delivery to purchasers in terms of contracts entered into
some months ago. It is now finally understood that the
out-turn of the northern crops will fall considerably
snort of those of last year.
Opium—Very little is changing bands; but consider-
able quantities are going forward on owners' accou,t.
We quote prices as before, say 1,240 to 1,275 rupees per
chest.
Coffee—The Malabar crop continues to be freely taken
up on arrival.
Pepper—Sales of Butcolo are reported at 59r. ra r
candy.
