LIVERPOOL, JANUARY 18.

We experienced a lively demand again last week
for good and, fine scale Sugars for the home trade,
and such proportion of the public sales as were
of those qualities went off briskly at an advance of
Is. to Is. 6d. per cwt. whilst the lower descriptions
are dull; a considerable part of a sale of 345
good brown to low middling Demeraras, brought
forward on Friday, were taken in, the owners feeling
no desire to force them off at any reduction: the total
quantity sold is about 900 Mids. including 100 sold
by private treaty. Molasses and Foreign Sugars are
dull of sale. There has been no disposition on the
part of purchasers to do any thing in Coffee this
week, nor are there any holders pressing their stocks
on the market; the business done is therefore very
limited, being confined to 100 bags Brazil, very or-
dinary dark and not clean, at 121 s. and ordinary at
182 s. Gd. per cwt. About 1200 bags and barrels
Brazil Cocoa were brought forward by auction, a
few lots of which were put up and taken in, the
,highest bid being 71s. per cwt. the rest were with-
drawn. In Pimento and Ginger nothing done.-
We have no alteration te notice in the Linn market,
the demand continues suspended, and prices nomi-
nally the same.
Considerable arrivals of Cotton having taken place
from the United States and the Brazils, and the ac-
counts fi om Charleston and Savannah stating that
Boweds were still rather giving way, our market has,
been very dull, and most descriptions of Cotton might
now be bour,lit here at id. to •td. per lb. below last
week's prices. The sales have been about 3,950
bags, consisting of 6(K), Boweds at 17d. to 174 d. for
ordinary to fair, 18d. to 19d. fur good fair to good,
and 19 and 20d. for a fell prime; 550 Orleans at
17d. to I'9d. for ordinary to fair, 18id. to 200. for
good fair to very good ; 40 Sea Islands at 2s. 11 ;
300 Pernams at 22d. to 23d.; 1,300 Maranhams at
20d. to 21d.; 400 13ahias at 19,d. to 9.1 d. and scme
very choice at 2'2d. ; Demeraras at 21d. ; 50
Cubas. at 17id. and 171 d.; 120 Bengals at Bd. to
Sid.; 550 Surats at 101 d. to 120. for fair to good.
(Of 20,000 bales of East India Cotton brought for-
ward by auction in London, on Thursday, about
13,000 were taken in ; the remainder were sold,
Bangals at 63. to Bd. 7-Bths. for ordinary to good ;
Surats 83. tai 1211 for middling to good-Lloth in
bond. Those that were sold fetched prices quite as
good as were eXpected.)
In Tobaccos little busineis was done during the
week, but holders arc firm at our quotations. The
sales of Rice have been very trifling ; about 150 bags
Bengal have been sold, goad white at 225. 6d. and
inferior at 21s. per cwt.; and a few casks free Caro-
lina have been taken by the trade at 475. to 48s. per
' Cwt. In Carolina Ric.e, in bond, .nothing has been
done. Our Corn Market on Tuesday was very dull,
and sales:of Wheat were heavy at a reduction of 31
per bushel. Some considerable purchases have been
made in Sour Flour, on speculation, principally at
f.i.ss. to 335. per barrel. The demand for Turpentine
ha§ remained suspended during the week, but there
is no disposition to sell under the present quotations.
Nothing has been done in Tar. There has been
rather more inquiry far Philadelphia Bark, and about
100 casks, fair quality, have been disposed of at
21s. 6d. to 225. per cwt. or Pot Ashes we have
expe..ienced a fair demand, but the sales are princi-
pdly confined to Montreals at .525. and 525. Gd. for
middling, and 535. per cwt. for good quality ; the
Market is on the whole rather stiffer, and 545. is now
asked for good Montreals. There has been more
doing in Pearls, and from 3(X) to 4(X) barrels have
!men taken (chiefly on speculation) at 565.6 d. to 57t:.
and a few Bostons at 585.; of the latter there are
now no sellers under 60s. per cwt.
Our Market for Dycv..oods has been very inactive,
and the few sales made are scarcely worthy of notice.
For Shuman there has been rather more inquiry, and
about 500 bags have been sold, Sicily at (225. 3d. to
225. 6d. and Malaya at '22s. Gd. per cwt. No sales
have been made in Madder Roots. Lemon Juice
and Valonia are stationary in price, with a limited
demand. Olive Oil continues dull. For Brimstone
there has been some inquiry, but no sales have been
effected. On Monday last, 1050 bags Saltpetre
were offered by auction, which sold briskly at 38s. 3d.
to 395. 63. and one lot at 395. 3d. per cwt. About
3000 Horse Hides have been sold this week at 7.5.
per hide. Tallow is still dull, and the prices have
declined considerably.

,There is no material alteration to notice in Tur-
pentine : there has been a farther import of 1150
barrels this week, but there have not been any sales
effected. In Tar very little has been done, American
remains at my last quotation, Stockholm I:as declined
to 19s. ; no inquiry for Archangel. Pitch is still
Without demand, British Posit: has experienced a de-
cline, sales having been made at Bs. 6d.
I have no transactions whatever to report in either
Pot or Pearl Ashes by. auction ; and there have been
but few sales, by private treaty ; the demand is very
limited, and buyers generally are very cautious; the
holders however appear tolerably firm, and my last
quntSitlons gas. to 565. for Boston Pots, and s)s.
'toel for Pearls, are fully realized. No further
parcels of Quercitron Bark have arrived ; fine pal-

The jiquiry for Shumac is limited, small r

quired for, nor have I heard of any particular ,
actions in Valon7a. No imports of Linie or TR,.
Juice since my last circular ; for that of good
there has been inquiry.
This week .there has been an import-of I.
TenerifFe Barilla ; the best description of

demands of the consumers are particularly
and the prices of these articles may he considtr,
almost nominal, which i. likewise the case v:io,

There are but few good parcels of
