qutAttity oriciing from yesseis at banfL Our
position to incr4ase their it:Q:ls, and wp have to report a stoW
at last week's prices, the qualities most in request being the lines
samples of old and new. The quantity of Barley offering exceed.i.
the demand, and this article again declined Is per quarter. Beans
Is per quarter lower. Oats and Shellings support their late value.
Averages—Wheat, 3,113 qrs., 64s Oid ; Barley, 1,466 qrs., 34s Oid
Oats, 117 cgs*, 24e ; eans, 109 qrs., 42s (Sid ; Peas, 40 qrs.,
47s 10Ad.

LONDON CORN EXCHANGE, DEC. 3.
The Wheat trade is without variation from Monday, but very
slow on that day's terms. The trade for Barley is as dull as
possible. Inferior Irish Oats are the turn cheaper. Beans, Peas,
and other grain without alteration.

SMITHFIELD CATTLE MARKET, DEC. 3.
The continuence of wet weather prevents a good attendance of
butchers, and those at market were very backward in consequence
in purchasing. The general trade was therefore very dull, and
prices in all instances declined 3d per stone. Inferior Beef sold
heavily at 38 3d, and prime Scots 4s 4d. Prime Mutton (Downs)
realised 4s Bd. Many head remained unsold at the close. (Per
stone of Slb., sinking the offal.)

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, DEC. 6.
Consumers confine their attention entirely to the better and
fresher sorts of Butter, which being very scarce, continue to com-
mand a high figure. On the whole, however, there is much apathy
in the trade, nor need any brisk speculative operations he expected
until Christmas has turned. Belfast, Kilkenny, and Carlow Butter
we quote at 100 s to 105 s. Derry, Coleraine, &c. 94s to 98s.
Banbridge are 90s to 925. Pickled Butter very quiet, seconds 87s to
88s. Pickled Butter very quiet, seconds 87s to SSs. Provisions
dull, but not Cheaper; and but littte doing in Bacon.

LIVERPOOL COLONIAL MARKET, DEC. 3.
There has been a general and extensive demand for all descrip-
tions, and 400 hhds. B. P. have been sold at rather higher prices.
There has also been a good inquiry for Khaur, and 10,500 bags have
been disposed of at 44s to 56s per cwt., (which may be considered
25 to 3s above previous rates;) 3000 bags white Bengal and a small
parcel of Mauritius have also been taken at a corresponding ad-
vance. Foreign.—The Refiners have purchased more freely this
week, and the sales amount to 330 cases and 800 brls. bags and
boxes of Pernambuco, at 14s 6d to 15s 6d for brown, 17s for good
yellow, and 18s to 205 6d for low to fair white; also 625 boxes
middling to good yellow Cuba at 19s per cwt. The sales of
Molasses are 70 puns. very ordinary Demerara at 23s per cwt.
Coffee.—The sales of Plantation have been to a fair extent, and
comprise 220 casks Jamaica, at tolerably steady prices ; the Trade
at present being pretty well supplied, evince less disposition to
increase their stocks. 45 bags of good Java brought 70s per cwt.
300 bags damaged Trinidad Cocoa sold at 33s 3d to 34s 6d, and 300
bags black Pepper, at 2,3 d for Eastern, and 4id for half heavy. No
sales of Ginger or Pimento. Rice.—A small parcel of fine Carolina
sold at 365, and 800 bags Bengal at 13s dd per cwt. B. P. Rum.—
There is a good demand for the finer qualities, but this small
quantity offering limits the business to 50 puns., chiefly strong
Demerara. at the quotations.
Tea.—The market has continued quiet throughout the week,
without any alteration in prices.
The transactio❑ in East India Drysaltery Produce are extremely
limited, being confined to a few chests Indigo at last sale's prices,
Shell Lac at 355 to 41s, and 450 bags Saltpetre at 26s 6d to 295.
Small sales of Nitrate of Soda are making at 25s 6d, but for a cargo
to arrive 24s:per cwt. has been accepted.
The sales of Dyewoods are at previous rates, but too trifling to
notice. There are no sales of Turpentine reported this week, and
prices remain without alteration. A cargo of 1000 brls. Stockholm
Tar has been sold, but the price is not stated. Montreal Pot Ashes
are dull, and the quotations must be considered nominal. Some
small sales of Montreal Pot Ashes have been made at 32s 6d per
cwt. Hides.—At the public sale last Friday, 1050 dry salted Buenos
Ayres brought 4id, 400 dry 64cl to 7id, 460 salted (heated 340 and
300 dry salted Pernambuco 6bd per lb; and about 6000 salted River
Plate have since been taken at 4d per lb. Tobacco.—No improve.
ment has taken place iu the demand, and the sales effected are
chiefly by retail. During the last month 690 hhds. were sold, of
which 300 were Virginia leaf and 150 stemmed, 50 Kentucky leaf
and 190 stemmed; of these 120 hhds. were for export, 270 for
Ireland, and 300 to Manufacturers. The prices annexed may be
considered as about the rates of the day, though in some cases
rather less has been accepted. The Harkaway, with a cargo from
Virginia, arrived yesterday.
There is no change to notice in the Brimstone market, consumers
only purchasing in small quantities for their immediate consump-
tion; the purchases this week are 300 tons. The sales in Sumac
continue limited; a few bags Sicily are reported at 9s 6d per cwt.
Cream of Tartar, in small parcels, has been soli at tiSs, and brown
at Sts, and 20 boxes red Argols at 488 per cwt. Flag Annato has
been more inquired for, and a few casks have been sold at the
quotations. Nothing done in Madders or Roots. Some small sales
of Quercitron Bark are reported at the quotaticns.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, DEC. 3.
The demand for Cotton to-day has been again but mode-
rate ; the quantity sold is estimated at 4000 hales. Few sales
made for the packet to-morrow, at rather easier prices.
The weekly sales amount to 28,450 bales, of which 2500
are for speculative account, and 1100 for export. The mar-
ket closes heavily.

COTTON MARKET, Decassaisa 6.
We continue to experience a very fair demand for Cotton, yet the
market wears the same inanimate and heavy appearance. The
quantity sold on Saturday was 4,00 a, and to-day, 5,500 bales at last
week's prices. Surats are much sought after, and fetch full prices.
This eagerness after low-priced Cotton is an evident symptom of
bad trade, and incontestably proves that Spinners are laying their
winter stocks as low as they possibly can.

COTTON MARKET.—WEEKLY REPORT.
At the commencement of the week there was rather an improved
demand, and the full prices of last Friday were obtained ; since the
arrival of the Halifax steamer, however, holders have offered their
stocks more freely, and prices have had rather a downward
teudcny, though little:or no change can be made in the quotations.
Speculators have taken 2500 American, and Exporters 250 Surat,
36 Carthagena and 500 Peruvian ; and there have been forwarded
into the country unsold 850 American, 50 Egyptian and 200 Surat.
