LONDON MARKETS, DEC. 26.

-COTTON.—The market has lately been so heavy.
and the supply of Cotton, more especially at the out.
ports, so considerable, that a depression of ld. a 2d.
per lb. hits been submittcrl to ; the sales since our
last, amount to about 900 bags, viz.-15U Peinatos

" LIVERP•IOI.9 Dec. 23.—The demand rm. Cot-
ton this week has been still inure limited than the
last, aid the pticei of many deseriptiand
;riven w ly nearly Id. per lb. ; yesterday several &a •
leis made their Appe.trance, but they pinch ised sp
nutter the apprefiensiou of prices w.ing still
lower, in consequence of the heavy supplies whit!:
coltitate to come forward. We make the amount

CoFFEE.— The East India Company brought for-
ward 11,00 U bags for sale last week ; the whole went
off at very reduced prices. Tile J.IVA of
.a good
colour, but rather rank in smell, sold so low as 675.
a 735. The Cheribon wls of fair quality, and the
better de.cripuons chiefly taken in at 7%. a 71s.
the lower qualities selling at 66-;. a 71s. Tiwry was
no public sale of West India last week, and none
advertised. ."
COl.`.—There -was no market yesterday ; the

. _
prices Of ‘Vednesday and Friday little v.►ried from
our lust report. Interior Wheats were tafered on
lower terms, without facilitating sales. Oats have
vnt b• en in plentiful supply, yet the pi ices have dr.
dined Is. A ‘2S. In the other descriptions of GrAia
there was little variati.,n in prices, the market re-

maining heavy.
SUG A 116 —The first accounts of the hurricane eat-
mica bad little effect on the ir irket ; we however
gave tae opinion in our las:, that Iron: the losses at
sea, We might expect g.eat destruction among the
Sugar Plantations; this opinion bec.mme more gen.:-
rat in the niarket, the business uone in Muscovados
as considerable, and on the confirmation of exten-
sive damage being sustained, the prices advanctd
Is. a '2s. per cwt. ; the purchases were made both
by the trade and by expert houses ; the reason as-
signed for the former purchasing so largely was the
holidays; the Brokers having agreed not to open
their shew-roems till Tuesday next ; there is, in con-
sequence, no market this forenoon.
The Refined market may generally be stated at
the improvement of Is. a `2s. ; the demand
for C. ushed Sugars, brown and middling Lumps,
and for Double Loaves ; very considerable purchases
WOWS trade either on .peculation, or in anticipation
of the Spring trade ; the shippers .till drew an incli-
nation to contract for goods deliverable in March at
the present currency.
In Foreign Sugars little business has been effected ;
the holders are, however, still sanguine of realizing
higher prices, on account of the advance of the other
descriptions of Sugar; but little or no business will
be done this week, as the principal Brokers have
agreed not to show any Sugar.
Hesse, FLAX, AND TALLOW.—The limited put.-
chases of Flax continue to be at depressed pi ices :
the quotation; of Hemp are in a *teat measure no-
minal, on account of the little hustness doing :—the
prices of Tallow have declined Is. a 21. Yellow
Candle in cargoes or large parcels 595.; the Tallow
Chandlers' Company's quotations 635. The last let-
ters from Petersburgh mention the Exchange a little
higher-Ig.
it t. 31, BRANDY, AND HOLL A NDS.The list of de-
liveries from the warehouse for the last week is not
received, on account of the holidays; the quantity
of Rum will no doubt be considerable from the late
extensive business ; the inferior descriptions of Ja-
maica may be states' at a shade higher since our last.
In Brandy and Geneva there is no variatio.i.
&WM.—Company's Pepper may be stated at a
farther decline, say 90.; annul 16U bags Black in
privilege at the India House last week sold at Bil.
a kid, ; the Company have declared a sale of
loves, Mace, Nutmegs, and Cinnamon— the latter
.may be quoted at a small decline.
Foote.—The demand usual at this season con-
tinues ; several cargoes of new Turkey Fruit are
brought to market, and meet a ready sale ; our
quotations are the prices realized by the merchant
for whole cargoes or large parcels : the trade price
of Currants ,we believe 45. The new Red Turkey
Fruit, 765.
_ Pnovistoxs, &.:.—Prime Mess Beef con-

tarries in limited demand ; the request fie Mess Pork
is 'arisk ; ti:ere have been considerable arrivals of
new Bacon ; the prices gradually decline, the old
nearly unsaleable ; there is still inquiries m.zde after
fine Butters; but every other description continues
very heavy, and a general desire to make sales, which
cannot be effected, unless at a considerable reduction.

A reward of Fifty Guineas is offered by Messrs.
Cooeett and Co. Surgeons, of Charlotte-Hou he, Black.
Iriars-road, for the discovery of the Author of a Let-
ter sent to the Medical Board. We have seen it; the
language is that of a Quaker, and hears the Wale.oith
Postmark, dated June 23—a more scurrilous and in-
vective inbtrument we have never witnessed, and hope,
for the honour of the profession, it will not prove the
effusion of a Medical man—if so, it must arise
from a grovelling jealk.usy at seeing a B.)ciety of
independent Gentleatien, of the first respectability,
appropriating a large portion of their time in Ale-
viatin4 dr: distresses of individuals, who may have
consulted men ignorant of the professing; we are at
a lots to conceive the cause for such a libel. Pei hap%
some of the author's patients have experienced re.iet
from the Medical Board. We are authorised to state,
that Dr. Coormit and Co. are consulted by all
ranks of pen* every morning until mac o'clock, and
&vita twelve till eight precisely.
