COTTON.-There was a revival of the inquiries
after Cotton last week,both by the expert houses sad
by the trade, t:e former purchasing Bowels and
Orleans of the better description. and a few Bengals;
the market is, however, without adequate supplies of
Cotton suitable for export, and our stock altogether
is so trifling, that the business of..the week has been
confined to about 800 bags.
Liveastooe, Nov. 25.-tn the early part of the I
week there was a rood demand, particularly for
B' wed an,i Orleans Cottons, and prices improved, in
the former sort cially, fully ed. per lb. ;in the
last two days, owever, the inquiry has very much
slackened, al ,e although we have had few arrivals.
yet the article has again given way, and now rates
nearl) with our laet qiintations. The sales consist of
4730 bags, several bundreds of which have been
taken.on spect'lauon.
Seep' -There continued a very steady though
net eitensiv.: demand for Sugars during last week;

Tile late Foreign Mails bring over orders for the

Them were 3468 bags of Sugar brought forward
at the India House last week, the best white (not

Thhe clayeds of Martinique and Guadaloupe continue
neglected : the quantity at market is trifling, there
has been little or no business done in Havannali or
Brazil Sugars for some time.
Come.-There was only one inconsiderable sale
of Coffee brought forward during last week, it con-
sisted of 266 casks British Plantation, and 183 bar-
rels, and 267 bags Foreign Coffee, the former chiefly
ordinary descriptions of Jamaica, ordinary 665. good
ordinary 68s. fine ordinary 71s. 6d. to 745. middling
775. to 80s.; the Foreign good ordinary Havannah
was taken in at 70s. to 725. a part damaged sold
from 635. to 655. 6d. The prices at this sale may be
considered about 2s. higher than the previous one
mentioned last week.
There has been so little Coffee brought' forward
for public sale for some time past, that to-day's, con.
sisting of 154 casks and 469 bags, chiefly Dutch,
attracted much interest ; the first part of the sale
about 100 Mids. gond to fine ordinary Dutch were
all taken in from 735. to 741. 6d. a small proportion
good ordinary sold at 725. middling Dutch 795. two
lots good ordinary Jamaica were sold at 675. 6d.
The deliveries are very limited, owing to the ad-
vanced season of the year: last week only 234 casks
and 2.55 bags fur exportation.
11113(1 I'ItOVISIONS.-There is a demand for good'
Beef, but there has not yet been any extensive sup-
plies brought to market. Very little business has
been done in Pork, yet the prices continue nearly
supported, and the holders firm. The new Bacon
brought to market has realised our quotations, but
as the parcel wits small, the prices we insert are too
high to be supported when the supplies become more
general: the prices of Butter are improving, the'
hard weather here promotes generally the coneunsp-
tion, and the frost in Ireland will prevent the make,
the supplies will in that else be inadequate to our
increased demand ; the Foreign imports, however,
castinue very extensive.
Orbs.--We cannot make any alteration in the
prices of New Greenland Whale Oil ; the market
remains exceedingly heavy. The imports this season
are greatly below an average year, yet it is calcula-
ted that the consumption has been greatly affected by
the improvements of the Gas-lights ; the last •r are,
getting more extensively in use in the manufactories
throughout the country. Cod and Seal Oils have de-
clined set aAI per ton. A considerable sale of both
descriptions has been advertised. In Seed Oils there
is no variation in the pi ice ; the demand is languid.
NAVAL STORE&-We mentioned in our last the im-
port of rough 'Turpentine ; the greater proportion
sold at 13s. 'TM market is again without supplies,
the purchasers turning their attention to the arrivals
at the outporu. One of our Liverpool letters this
morning states several parcels were sold for the Lon-
don mar ket, at 145 6d a 15s 6d. Turpentine Spirits,
town drawn, continue to decline, the last realised
price 80s. Tar is a little recovering from the late
depression, though farther arrivals of nearly 3000
barrels were yesterday repos Led. No alteration in
Rusin, Pitch, &c.
