COMMERCIAL, &c.

Our'Letters from Manchester state, that exten-
sive' sales 'Of Cotton 'goods, and twist had taken
[place there; which had occasioned an animated
market. 'Yesterday in the city the saLs of Baa-
-1 gals 'were Very consifierable,' and at the close of
Ithe day 'it was cakolated that about '2OOO bags
had been purchased 'The advance realised is about
per pound on the last East India sale. The
prices are 101 d. a 124 d.. There are no Bengals
Ito he hit tinder the former price. The Imports
of cotton during last month into Loudon, Liver-
: pool, and Glasgow, were 42,437 bags.
•The .orismes, thine in sugars dating the early
part of the week has been very extensive; the
sates neariv 4500 casks Since then the demand
r has not been so brisk ; the advance is however
foliy maintained. The sales of Muscovades dining
tie week wilt very nearly approach to 8000 casks.
f,nenoon the business done in Mirsca-
i varies was a little mare extensive than arty day
(wring the week, with the exception of Tuesday ;
a greatei disposition was evinced to purchase,
and the advance was about Is. per cwt. on the
• prices. of Tuesday. Thu Rt fined market has ad-
vanced 2s. a 44. ; goods are still scarce : the de-
mand during, the week was very Consiclet4ble for
.'the Baltic, 'and for -general export. The wholesale
groceri have also purchased extensively. Yester-
day forenoon a public-sale of 594 chests Haydn-
nah Sugars Was iorottOtt forward, and went off
freely at prices much about the previous market
currency by private contract. l'he itemand ratli r
gage Way :towards the close of the sate, but the
Sugars were generally in bad condition ; otherwise
there is no doubt higher prices would have been
obtained.

The public Sales in Coffee this week have gone
off at ,very fluctuating prices. Thursday's com-
menced with Much briskness at higher rates, but
closed heavily a shade under the currency of last
week. Yesterday's went off with langour, and at
tffe dote of the market Coffee may be swill at a
decline_of is. a 2s. per cwt. and very heavy at the
depression.

CHELMSFORD, Aud B.—The Wheat Harvest
has partially commenced in various parts of [hit'
county. the Wheats appear to die in tuo:t places
particularly handsome, and not willista fi ding the
•late rains and boisterous weather, are very. up-
right, which will give the advantage of its staatl-
ing longer, and require less fielding after it is
severed. The Baileys and Oats are much behind
the Wheats in most p!aces; there are, however,
some exceptions, where the Oats are even

forwarder than the Wheat.' Both Barleys and
Oats promise a much greater ;produce than ex-
pected; the 'late rains having brought them
forward, and renderio,-; them a much more even
crop. The Pease are said to be a good crop.
The hay harvest has been longer in duratio►► than
known for ►nany years; there is still a consider-
able breadth to mow.

EXETER, AUG. 6.—llarvest.—Reaping has al
ready commenced in several pat ishes in the neigh-
hourhoOd of this city, and which,. from the de-

ligbtful State of the weather, may be expect-
ed in the course of N few days to become
general.--The grain is unusually large, and
fine coffilition.—Acconnts from every piirt of this
extensive county concur in stating, that the crop
is likely to prove the most abundant in the memory
of man.

The hay-harvest proceeds in this district with
great activity and with the most favourable re-
The crops of grain, of all kinds, have
changed colour, and the Wheats decline their
heads, in preparation for the sickle.----The
and praiseworthy exertions of our al.lri-
culturalists will, there is Ito reason to doubt,•
be rewarded by a most abundant return. The
crop of Potatoes is also expected to be grea,t. We,
have the pleasure to add, that our accounts front
North Vales are equally satisfactory.--=-(Sulopiali
Journat.)
