NEW YORK (AMERICA) MARKET.

(From the Morning Courier of March 22.)
Business throughout the week has been extremely
dull, and transactions very limited: the prices of
nearly every article save Sugar and Molasses, have
either remained nominal, or have declined.
ASHES—There has been no business done, except
in a retail way, to supply the immediate wants of
consumers, we have therefore no data, by which to
regulate prices : our quotations are merely nominal.
CLOYERSEED—There has been an active demand
throughout the week at 9 to 9-1- cents per lb.
COAL—There has been some arrivals from Eng-
land and Scotland since our last ; 200 tons from
Newcastle, and 100 tons from Hull have been
taken at prices which have not transpired. Liver-
pool and Scotch are dull, and no cargo sales have
been effected. A cargo of Liverpool,` however, is re-
tailing by the importer at 12 dol. 50c. a. 13 dollars
per chaldron.
COFFEE—The market continues heavy and dull :
sales have been limited this. week, comprising about
800 bags Brazil at 13 a 13,1- cents. ; a few lots of

was for prime green : besides these, a few small lots
of Cuba changed hands from 131 to 14; St. Do-
mingo at 12.1 cash, and Maracaibo at 14c. 4m.
COTTON.—Therc has been a steady business done
without variation in price, and our former quota-

to about '2,000 bales, chiefly Uplands and Alaba-
mas, from 9 a 10 cents. ; Tennessee at 9i. a 10.
and New Orleans, 10 a 10i for export; a few lots
Alabama and New Orleans were taken for home use
from 10i a 11--very prime selections would com-
mand our highest rates.

our quotations are altogether nominal.
DOMESTIC GOODS—The sales both by private
and auction have been extensive, but in some in-
stances at a trifling reduction from former rates.

readily command our quotations.

e-
rate extent have been made at our prices. Ligh

barrels at 5 12A- on time, and 200 barrels scratched
