100 bales French Roots at 44s per cwt., and 100 bales Turkey at

buoyant, and even a little higher, and the sales of the week have
exceeded 50 tuns. The transactions in Fish Oils have been con-
fined to a few very trifling sales of Seal, at some little reduction in

prices of yellow Candle continue pretty steady; to-morrow about
300 casks South American Tallow will be offered by auction.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, SEPT. 26.
The demand was very animated in the early part of the
week, particularly from Speculators and an advance of id per lb
was currently obtained on the common and fair qualities of
American, and id on the better kinds ; and although the dull state
of the market at Manchester on Tuesday last checked the inquiry,
a fair extent of business has since been done,' but the extreme Ad-
vance is barely supported. Surat has been in good request, and is
rather dearer, Brazil and Egyptian without material change. For
Sea Island there has been a good demand, and the decline noticed
last week has been regained. Speculators have taken 10,500
American and 500 Surat, and Exporters 200 American and 50 Surat.
