LONDON MARKETS, Elc. JUNE 18.

Corron.—There is much interest excited as to the
, future probable price of Cotton ; the present very
extensive supplies have depressed the market very
considerably ; -it, however, appears probable, that
the high prices formerly quoted, and the briskness of
the markets in this country, have occasioned tin•
greater proportion of the crop of the United States to
he immediately shipped off, which may be the cause
of the late extensive import, and that a great propor-
•tion of the supply has already arrived ; the state of
the money market and of trade has also added to
die depression.
LIVE.HPOOL, Time 15 i-44 Our cotton market con-
tinued in the same dull state as for some time past
till about the middle of the week, since which there
has been more inquiry from the dealers ; several 01
them, however, expecting that a still farther reduc-
tion may, perhaps, take place in prices, owicg to the
continued bad state of the trade in Manctitstur, have
either declined purchasing alt.gether, or bi only
sparingly to supply their immi•diate wants ; there
has, in consequence, been a further decline in die
prices of Most descriptions of about one half-penny
per pound."
SUGAR.—The demand for Muscovades continued
very languid last week ; the alteration of the bounty
on refined has materially affected the raw market ;
the trade have been deterred from purchasing. on ac-
count of the impossibility of getting the sugar manu-
factured and exported previously to the Silt ploximr. ;
a general opinion was also entertained that the prices
of Muscovades would decline in proportion with the
depression of refined Sugars.
The great inducement held out to export before
the sth of July produced no beneficial effect on the
market :—ltefiued Sugars, in place of advancing, de-
clined from one to two shillings, Kith the exception
of Lumps, which were scarce, and in sonic request,
ar 110 s. a 111s.--Molasses were enquired aka at
255. 84.

In Foreign Sugars there was little business effec-
ted la* week ; good Guadeloupe Clayeds are• in-
quired after, hut there is little or nn supply of the
finer description; the stock at Brazil Sugar is lepor-
ted at 800 chests.

Curs —The demand for Coffee was very consi-
derable last 'seek, and the whole quantity I.roviglit
tor ward by public sale, 647 casks and 9GC bar s,
went off freely. The descriptions most in requeJ
have been good ordinary pale, tine ordinary, and
middling Jamaica Coffee ; these qualities have, in
consequence, rated exceedingly high, and out of
proportion to the other descriptions ; pood and tine
noinary Jamaica in very extensive parcels from 625.

82s. a 84s. the Dutch Coffee continues in limited de-
mand, the prices rate low, middling 695. 6d. a 7.55.
The prices of East India are in a great measure no.
minal, on account of the extensive sale (twenty thou-
sand bags) to morrow ; a great proportion is stated
to be damaged.
TOBACCO.—The market continues exceedingly de-
pressed ; the arrival of about 1000 hhds. Virginia
Tobacco has added to the previous heavy market.—
By public sale last creek. 10 hlids. Cuba Tobacco, of
an uncommon fine quality, the prices were 175 d. a
18d. The prices of Tobacco for the Continental
markets are considerably lower ; cargoes of Virginia
offer at 86s. Maryland at 555. manifest weight.
