CITY MARKETS.-(TWO O'CLOCK.)

SrICES.—In this Market, since the commencement of
the week, a good deal has been done. About 700 bags of
Cloves were publicly sold at from 10d. to Is. Id. per lb.
The deliveries of Pepper have been large lately. Cinnamon
is not so much in demand, the dealers waiting the result of
the sale of 74,0001b5. on account of the Ceylon Govern-
ment, next week.

SPIRITS.-The Ruin Market is in a state of activity,
which will be, in all probability, further imreased by the
announcement to-day of a contract for Government for
100,000 gallons. Holders, during the week, have asked
higher prices, which in some instances have been sub-
mitted to.

SALTPETRE. —A good deal of business has been done
this week at former prices. The deliveries have been con-
siderable: in the week, ending last night, upwards of
3,500 cwt.

RUSSIA?: PRODUCE.—The Tallow market remains very
sickly, and sales have been made as low as 395. per cwt.
The stock at present is about 16,000 casks, which, if the
deliveries are not more extensive than they have been of
late, will be more than sufficient to meet the demand till
the arrival of the spring ships. In Bristles more business
is doing, and some descriptions are quoted 10 per cent.
higher.

THE SILK TRADE.-Very large importations of manu-
factured goods, both from Ranee and Germany, have
tended to produce a stagnation in most branches of this
important trade. A few houses only are in full work upon
orders. The manufacturers feel not the least disposition
to make e.oods on speculation. Raw Silks are heavy, and
a slight decline on the last sale prices may be quoted.
Wools.--The importations of foreign Wools have been
large this week, and the trade labours under the sante de-
pression to which it has so long been subjected.
CorroN—A fair proportion of business has been done
this week in Cottons. East India finds buyers at the last
Company's sale prices, and the whole then offered has
changed bands. The manufacturing department is repte-
sented as being more active, and extremely considerable
orders have been received for the raw material. Egyptian
Cotton return from to Sd. freely, at which prices a
good deal has been sold. The deliveries of East India
Cottons this week have exceeded 45,000 lbs., and of other
descriptions 210,000 lbs.
In INDIGO more business is doing than last week, orders
having been received for the continental markets, but
prices have not advanced.

SOUTHALL MARKET.—ApriI 2.
This day's market having been rather hugely supplied,
and not very numerously attended by buyers, each kind of
meat, except Lamb, which was in brisk demand, expe-
rienced a very dull sale, at the following prices per stone
of Slb. to sink the offals:—

Beef 10d. to Is. IGd. Veal 55. Od. to 6e. 4d.
mutton 110 3 0 l!...ark. 4 4 5 8

_
Lamb . 7s. 6d. to Ss. Od.
The foregoing quotations are Beef, Mutton, and Veal, the
same as on this day se'nnight; Pork at a depression of from 2d.
to 4d. per stone. Lamb has not been quoted before this season.

At Huntingdon fair on Monday last, there was a more
plentiful supply of all kinds of stock, and more bupiness
done, than any year since its revival. It may be ❑ow Paid
to be permanently established.— Cambridge Chronicle.
