LONDON MARKETS, JUNE 13.

Cdrrox.—The demand for Cotton continues very
Efoited ; the sales since our last little exceed 600
packages—•stt»ll parcels of Pernams were disposed
of at 2•. to 2s. Ind. Mar anhams at 23d. Minas 21.1 d.
Demerares 2s. to 25.-0.129 Boweds at 18d. and
2.19 Bengali 1011 to
The Claegow market was very brisk last week ;
the prices 1,1. per pound higher.
The public sale of Cotton this forenoon consisted
of SOO bales fair common Bengali ; the prices went
rather lower, 9iJ. and 91d.
Tncre is much interest excited as to when the East
India Compwy will bring forward the next sale of
Catoss : the general impression in the market is
that it will be fixed for the 11th proximo, but no de-
claration has yet been made by the Company.
Svosß.—The market was
_last week more plenti-
fully supplied with Sugars ; on the Tuesday and
Wednesday rather higher prices were obtained, but
towards the close of the week the effect of the supply
became more apparent ; purchases were made on ra-
ther lower tera.m. _

The market was this forenoon plentifully supplied
with new Stigma ; the stocks in the warehouse have
greatly increased ; the holders evince a disposition
to accept of the present prices; the sales effected are
in Consequence a shade lower ; the purchases conti-
nue confined to good parcels.
There were very considerable purchases made of
refined rods ; the prices were groarally higher ;
the sales weir both for shipping and on speculation ;
parcils continue to be contracted for to be ready
some weeks hence ; the market still inadequtely
supplied with retined goods, Uolasses were steady.
The demand fur Foreign Sugar continues coulined
tO the lower qualities, winch are rather scarce.
COFFEE.—The public sales last week were exten-
sive ; the whole went off freely, withlut any varia-
tion in ti.e prices.. The stock of Coffee in London
is very limited, and a very. great proportion is held
by speculators who have observed the gradual dimi-
n:shing of the stock for a series of years, and the
great increase of consumption owing to the late de-
pressed prices. It must he mentioned. that the West
I odia plante r at present gets a Lair remunerating price
it r his produce, the whole is immediately brought to
rehrket, and sold at the currency of the day ; the
supplies to be etpected will in consequence be very
considerable ; sly! continental prices are on the ad-
vance, bet not in proportion with the rapid rise of
the Eng.i:h markets.
There was a public sale of Coffee this forenoon, it
consisted of damaged descriptions ; the prices were
esceeding4 high.
parser Phovistobts.— There is en material alteration
in the prices rtf Beef and .Pock. Bacon is still heavy.
The holders of Butters evince a great disposition to
get clear of the old stock of Irish Butter previous to
the arrival of the new. Public sales in consequence
are brought forward, at which very reduced rates
were submitted to r the market is still without auy
supply of new Butter.
Rice.—As the prices of Rice are intimately con-
nected with the Corn-market, the decline in Mark-
lane yesterday will greatly affect the rates. Previous
to the fall of the prices of Grain, accounts had been-
rec‘ived from France very unfavourable as to Rice ;
the market became immediately heavy-210 bags
Brazil Rice, by public tale, went at 425. to 436. the
prices of Carolina are entirely nominal. The last
realized rate in this market was 51s. but we should
suppose no prices Lear that rate could now be realized.
SVICES.— Ptpper has bon in good dtanand ; for
Company's 7-Id. -and if 1. has been given ; for Pri-
vilege 7d. to 73 J. has barn give.t. line Cloves sold
at 3s. sd.

By public sale, this forenoon, 557 bags East India
Ginger, 4 s. Sd. to 45i.
Toxaceo.—There is not much alteration in the
prices of Tobacco. Very considerable parcels are
shipping to France for the late contract ; the traile
arc also purchasing lot the home consumption, chiefly
the low qualities ; Cie most coniiderable sales lately
are from 70. to Bd.
Ott.s.—The Greepland Oil of this year's fishing
rinnot be expected at market for two months ; some
disposition has been evinced to make contracts ; the
purchasers o,ffer low prices—the holders look for high
ones. Southern Oil utivaried. Sperm has advanced
al to AV. which is rather uncommon at this season.
Rape Oils are lower.
Asim.s.—The prices of Pot Ashes are rather higher;
very little Russia at market. Pearls unvatied.
NAVAL STORES.TIICre are no further arrivals of
Rough Turpentine. Spirits are higher on account
of the advance at Liverpool. Tar in limited request;
parcels of Stockholm are scarce. In Pitch or Rosin
there is no variation.
Haw FLAX, AND TAI,tOW.The prices of Fo-
reignPallow are a shade higher. Flax without any
variation. The limited sales of Hemp are at prices a
shade lower.
litxtf, BRANDY. AND Hottutrais.—The supply of
Rum being considerably increased, the demand to-
wards the close of last week became more limited,

and as the change in the Cora-market is supposed to
pioduce, an effect on the prices of Rum, the market
lesterday and tS.dity may be stated exceedingly
heavy ; indeed we have beard of no purchases what.
ever, and were sales forced in the present' state of the
market, a decline Must be submitted to; but as no
actual sales have taken plade, the prices are unvaried.
Brandies are also unvaried. Geneva is without any
variation.

• It appears, by the Dul;iin Papers, that in conic.
quence of the riots in that city, arising from the high
prices of provisions, the LORD MAYOR issued a Pro-
- charm:ion, on Thursday last, requiring the inhabit
tants to remain within their respective habitations
iron nine o'clock each night till six in the morning,
arfe directing all public houses to be shut during
those hours.
AGRICULTURE.-.-it is curious to imagine what must
have been the face of this country prior to the reign
of. Henry VIII. at which period seem first to hare
been introduced a great proportion of those fruits and
flowers' which now adorn our fields, gardens, and
orchards. Until then cherries and currants were un-
known ; no mulberries, nor even clover grass, were
any where to be met with—to say nothing of the
potatoes. In fact, elegance must have been unknown,
and even comfort but little attended to.
