Corrow—There was very little demand for Cotton in our la&
ket last week ; about 300 Surats and a few Bengals have been
sold by auction—the forther from 4d. very ordinary, to sd. for
good fair; the latter 4d. very ordinary. B private contract,
280 Boweds have been taken for export, 6fd. a7d ; also 180
Surats 43d. to 51d. and 160 Bengals 4d., which were taken id
at the public sale.
Gaascow, May 6.—ln the early part of the week the demand
for Cotton was limited, but towards the close, some of the holderg
of Bowed Georgia having shown a disposition to meet burro;
more business has been done than for snme time past. The ealell
amount to 1,449 bales, principally Bowed Georgia and Nevi
Orleans.

SUGAR-There was rather more deniand for the new Segari
last week ; and, as the supply was limited, the whole sold at fall
prices. In old Sugars, particularly in the- very low and soft,
browns, there was great heaviness, and sales could not be effected
without submitting to a further reduction. The stock is now
about 6,600 casks less than last year, the delivery is about 950

buyers, however, made considerable inquiries after the new
Sugars, and in the course of the day the sales of Muscovado
might be estimated at 900 hhds ; the strong and fine at rather
improving prices. The Ilarbadoes sale, 110 hhds also went off
freely, at rather higher rates, 635. a 675. 6d. The partial put'
chases of a few Lumps and crushed Sugars for the Mediterranesd
last week produced a favourable effect on the limited stock now
on sale; there was an advance of Is. a 2s: per cwt. ; no Lumps

owing chiefly to the ruinous prices the merchants have suu-
rnitted to.
RUIZ, BRANDY, AND lIOLLANDS-The contract with Govern
ment has no effect on the market ; it was taken at Is. I lid. 9
is. no. per imperial gallon, which is Is. 7d. and a fractionpe:
old measure, nearly as possible corresponding with the pievitout
market prices. As several of the contractors are supposed no
have the necessary quantity in their stock, the holders of Rom "rte
