LIVERPOOL COLONIAL MARKET, OCT, 2.

white from 23s for low to 26s for good, and ordinary brown at 2os gd

prise 100 casks of Jamaica and a few small lots of Demerara and

5s 4d per gallon for Jamaica, 17 per cent. ovenproof.
Tea.—There has been a fair inquiry for common Congous and
Twankays, at last week's quotations; the market closes quiet, but
very firm.
Theme has been but little done in East India Produce; the sales
reported are 32 chests Fig Indigo at is 10d per Ib, 40 bags Turmeric
at 335, 70 boxes Cassia at 80s, 40 bags Cutch at 205, and a few chests

tons ; small parcels have brought 18s 6d to 19s per cwt.

Tar. The demand for Pot Ashes has rather improved several
hundred brls. having been taken by the Trade and for Ireland, at
27s 3d to 27s 6d, but principally at the former price; the brand of
1839 is saleable at 25s 3d. The sales of Pearl Ashes are trifling, at
2gs 6d per cwt. Hides of all descriptions are in demand, at full
rates ; several parcels of salted Monte Video have been sold at ssld,

to experience a good demand from the Trade, Irish Dealers and
Exporters, and the market presents a very firm appearance. The
sales for the last month reached 1250 hhds., of which 330 were for
Ireland, 240 for export, 50 on speculation, and the remainder to
Manufacturers. The new Virginia leaf is generally good, and an
unusually large portion of fine quality; the stemmed is long and
leafy, but wanting substance, and as yet there is little or none
fine.
The price of Brimstone has declined this week, in consequence
of the Sulphur Company having reduced their selling prices 20s per
ton; the principal business done was at the sale of 310 tons of
damaged, which went at .89 128 6d to .810 17s 6d per ton. The
corrected quotations may now be considered as the selling prices.
Small sales only are reported in any description of Sumac. All
sorts of Tartar have been rather dull of sale, and for Argols there
has been only a limited demand. A few bales of Persian yellow
Berries sold at £l5 to £lB per cwt. There are no sales of Madder
or Roots reported thiS week. 25 hhds. Quercitron Bark have been
sold at 12s 6d to 14s per cwt., according to quality, and about 350
bags East India Linseed, but the price lies not transpired. There
has been a fair demand for Olive Oil, considering the advanced
rates which have been established; the sales of the week have
reached about 50 tuns, and all at very full prices. In Fish Oils
some sales of parcels from the ship-side have taken place, chiefly
of coloured Seal, at low rates ; a few tuns of pale Seal brought
.e 29 les to and about 20 tuns Cod £27 lb per tun. Rape and
Linseed Oils are in limited demand, but without alteration in prices
Oil of Turpentine continues depressed ; a few sales have been made
at 525 to 52s 6d, which is a further reduction ; for forward delivery,
however, inquiries continue, arid no sellers can be found at present
rates. Palm Oil has been sold rather lower, £3B 5s having been
accepted; the sales of the week amount to about 200 tons ; no
transactions are reported for arrival. Sales of Petersburgh clean
Hemp have again been effected at .C 43, which price is refused by
some holders : 50 bales of Sunn Hemp brought £2O, 60 bales
Bombay £l9, and 3so bales Jute £l4 155 to .t'ls per ton. For Flax
there is more inquiry. For Petersburgh yellow Candle Tallow
the demand has been limited; small sales of new have been made
at 53s 9d to 545. On Saturday last 260 pipes South American were
sold. chiefly by auction, at from 47s to 52s gd per cwt., according to
quality; to-morrow about 400 will be offered for public sale.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, OCT. 2.
There has been a steady demand for cotton throughout the week,
both from the Trade and Speculators, and the prices of last week
are fully supported for all descriptions, particularly for the common
qualities of American and Surat. The unfavourable accounts
received from America of the crop of Sea Island, have produced
more firmness in the holders of this description, which may now
be considered quite as high as previously to the public sale of the
18th ultimo. 8000 American and 300 Surat have been taken on
speculation, and 100 American for export. There have been for-
warded into the country unsold during September, 620 American
and 50 Surat.

ACCOUNT OF SALES AND IMPORTS OF COTTON,
From the 25th ultimo, to this day, inclusive.
