LIVERPOOL COLONIAL MARKET, JAN. 8.

There hos been an improved demand for 8.P., and 500
hhds. sold, with 2400 bags Mauritius, at the quotations, and 1700
bags and 100 casks Bengal, •at 54s to 56a 6d for low brown, 68s
for yellow, and 84s for good white. Foreign.—There has been
some inquiry for brown descriptions this week, without, however,
as yet leading to business. The sales are confined to about 70 bils.
Brazil and Laguayra. Bonded Refined.—A fair inquiry for Crushed,
at the London quotations. Treacle still in damand for Spring
delivery. 260 puns. Demerara Molasses have been sold at our
quotations. Coffee.—The sales of Plantation have been quite un-
important, comprising only 70 casks of Jamaica; no change in
prices. Of Foreign, 50 bags were sold; Laguayra at 50s, and
African at 428 per cwt. Nothing done in Ginger or Pimento. 20
brls. Trinidad Cocoa sold at 408 per cwt., 180 bags of good black
Pepper at 44c1 to -lid per lb, and 1660 bags good Bengal Rice at 163
per cwt. in bond. The sales in Rum are confined to a few Leewards,
7 0. P., at 3s id, and stronger at Is 5d per gallon.
Tea.—There had been a steady demand, at improving prices,
previous to the arrival of the account, by way of Marseilles, that
our disputes with China were in a train of settlement, which
bas caused a complete panic in the market, and prices have receded
considerably, and our quotations may be considered nominal.
There has been but little business done in East India Drysaltery
articles this week; about 60 chests of Lac Dye reported at 9d to
Ild per lb, and 1500 bags of Satpetre at 275 to 28s, with 500 bags
of Nitrate of Soda at the quotations.
Dyewoods.—The Sales in Logwood are confined to 119 tons
Campeachy at .e 9 lOs to .eg 12s fid ; a few tons solid Nicaragua
Wood are reported at 10, and some Gaboon Barwoodat 10s
per ton. There are no sales in Turpentine to report. 1000 brls.
of Stockholm Tar have been sold at the quotations. Although
there has been no general inquiry for Pot Ashes, 300 brls. have
been sold, at 30s for new, and at 28s for the brands of 1838. Pearl
Ashes are dull, but without variation in price. There has been
nothing done in Hides, and the market remains without alteration.
Tobacco.—The sales amount to '230 hhds., of which about 40 were
for export and the remainder for the Trade at steady prices.

The Brimstone market remains in the same dull state as noticed
for some time past, and the present quotations are with difficulty
maintained. Scarcely an inquiry for Argols or Cream of Tartar.
Small sales have been made in Sicily Sumac at 12s 3d; other des-
criptions are neglected, No inquiry for Madders or Roots. 30

casks Quercitron Bark are reported at 12 3d per cwt. The business
in Olive Oil is limited to a few tuns Galipoli, at £64 per tun. About
About 100 tuns Cod Oil were sold at the close of last week at about
£26 10s, off the quay; 30 tuns Pale Seal have brought £33, and
small lots .e 33 105 per tun. Pale Rape Oil continues steady at the
late advance, and Linseed Oil has been sold at 30s, which is a con,
siderable improvement. In Palm Oil a little more business has
been done this week ; the sales amount to 150 tons, (part from the
quay,) at £35 lOs to .. 36 per ton. 10 tons Petersburg clean Hemp
are reported at £4O, but not of the finest quality, and 350 bales of
Jute at £l4 10s, at which there are more sellers, Tallow.—On
Saturday last, a cargo of damaged Yellow Candle, consisting of
about S2O casks, was sold by auction, and upon the whole realized
good prices, ranging from 445 6d to 413 9d per cwt., according to
quality and condition ; on the same day, upwards of 500 casks
Peterburg yellow Candle changed hands at 495 6d ; but on Tues-
day, 700 pipes of South American were offered by auction and
withdrawn for want of buyers ; a considerable part has, however,
since been sold, although at low rates, tiamely,from 36s for very
dark and inferior sorts, up to 45s 6d for the finest quality, and
yellow Candle has also within the last day or two been sold at
some little reduction.

LIVERPOOL COTTON

MARKET, JAN 8

The week opened with a fair demand from the Trade, and full
prices were paid; the arrival on Thursday, however, of the over-
land mail, with intelligence of the China dispute being all but
settled, caused the withdrawal of several stocks from the market,
and has enabled those who are disposed to sell to obtain an ad
vance of 4d to id per lb on American and Surat. at which the
market closed firmly. Brazil and Egyptian remain without altera-
tion. Speculators have taken 11,000 American, 3,000 Surat, 200
Maranham, 250 Carthagena and 50 Egyptian. 110 Bengal were
taken for export.

SATURDAY EVENING

The market opened at a fair demand, and about 4,000 bales were
sold at Friday's prices, if any change, the feeling was in favour of
the buyer. _ _

MONDAY

This morning the market appeared quiet, with but a moderate
demand, as the day advanced, the enquiry became more general,
and the arrival of the letters per packet of the lyth ult., with later
accounts from America, confirming previous advises of a short
crop, brought several speculators into the market, and caused a
large business to be done, say from 8,000 to 10,000 bales at prices
quite equal to Friday, and in many instances id dearer. Several
holders refused to sell at the close of change at this advance. 600
Pernams, 80 to pd; 500 Bakin and Macin, 7id to Sid; 160
Egyptian, yid to 12id; 500 Surat, 4id to srid are qeported to-day.
4,000 to speculative account; remainder to the trade.
