LIVERPOOL COMMERCIAL MARKET. FEB. 23.
There having been a large business in Foreign Sugar, the de-
mand for B.P. has been limited, and the sales are only 100 hds.
at former prices; 5000 bags Bengal have been sold at the quo-
tations. The advanced prices for Foreign established at the end
of last week, in the first instance acted as a check to business,
but later on the demand revived, and considerabletransactions
have taken place at full rates, amounting in all to 560 cases 550
bags Brazil and 320 hhds. Porto Rico, chiefly to the home trade.
The only sale reported in Molasses is 100 puns. old Trinidad at
17s. 6d. per cwt.—The business of the week in Coffee is quite
unimportant, being limited to the sale of 15 tces. Jamaica, 30
bales Mocha. 50 bags La Guayra, and 50 bags Bahia, at former
rates.-100 bags Guayaquil Cocoa sot.d at 265., and a small lot
of Bahia at 295. 6d. per cwt., and 100 bags Pimento at 3d. per
lb.—No sales of Ginger or Pepper.-80 tces. Carolina Rice
brought 17s. 6d. to 18s. 6d., 2000 bags Bengal Bs. 6d. to 9s. 3d.
for broken, Os. 6d. to Its. 6d. for low to middling white, and
2000 bags Madras 85. to 9s. 6d.pr cwt.—There has been a good
demand for Rum, 1 ut higher prices have not been obtained, the
sales are 350 puns., chiefly. Demerara, at previous rates.
The Tea market has again been quiet for all descriptions, but
no alteration in prices to notice.
A few serons of Guatemala Indigo sold at 3s. per lb. For
Shell Lac there has been a good inquiry, and prices are on the
advance ; about 130 chests sold at 455. to 48s. per cwt. for low
to good orange. Nothing reported in Lac Dye. 20 bales M un-
t brought 255. per cwt. Cutch is held for much higherp
Sago ices, but in Gambier only 100 bales sold at 11s., and 100 ba
ago Flour, at 10s. per cwt. Nothing done in Sago. 30 cases
of Castor Oil, at auction, brought 94d. per lb. Saltpetre con-
tinues rather heavy of sale, and only 500 bags reported, part all
faults. About 400 tons of Nitrate of Soda have been disposed
of, at Ils. to 11s. 3d. per cwt.
The sales of Guano are about 400 tons, viz., Peruvian at .C 9,
Ichaboe at .e 7 12s. 6d., Patagonian at 2s. 6d. to 105.,
and Possession Island at per ton.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, FEB. 23.
The past fortnight has exhibited considerable fluctuations in
the market ; last week the business was very extensive,
amounting to 89,220 bags, speculators, exporters and the trade
having bought very freely, establishing an advance of id. per
lb. on nearly all descriptions; the present week has witnessed
a great falling off in the demand, and as some importers have
offered their stocks more freely, the advance quoted above was
up to yesterday, in a great measure, lost, particularly in Ame-
rican kinds. To-day, however, owing to favourable advices
from India, there has been a good trade demand, with decidedly
