the sales are 600 bags, at 240 6d to 258 per cwt.
Dyewoods.—The sales of all descriptions are unimportant, and
without alteration in price. No sales of Turpentine or of Tar
having taken place, prices remain unaltered. There has been a
more general demand for Montreal Pot Ashes, but prices have
given way 6d to is per cwt. ; the sales, however, in consequence
of this reduction, have been rather extensive; for some Montreal
Pearl 26s 6d has been accepted. Hides.—About 27,000 East India
Kips have been sold at fair prices, sound dry salted at ioid, Ist
rubbed at lid to 70, 2nd rubbed 54d to sid, sound dry and brined
at 7id to aid, Ist rubbed bid to CI, and 2nd rubbed at 4/c1 to lid;

and the sales only reach 50 hhds., at former prices.
There has been more demand for Brimstone this week than for a
long time past, about 300 ton's having been sold, rather within the
range of the quotations. No sales are reported in Sumac, Argots,
Berries or Sag Annatto. Of Tartar, a few casks brown brought
previous prices. Madders and Madder Roots are without change.
The business done in Olive Oil continues on a limited scale, con-
sumers taking small lots only for immediate consumption ; prices
have remained unvaried for the few transactions which have taken
place. For Fish Oils, on the spot, there is very little inquiry ; but
50 tuns new Seal Oil, to arrive, have been taken at an advance upon
rates, although the exact price is not reported; Importers show no
anxiety to sell for forward delivery. Both pale Rape and Linseed
Oils are fiat, and prices rather drooping. Oil of Turpentine has
been sold a little under 51s. and is still very difficult of sale. About
120 tons of Palm Oil have been sold at 434 15s to 435, and a
large quantity is understood to have changed nands, the price of
which has not transpired; 50 tons, to arrive, also brought e 34 150.
In Baltic Hemp or Flax nothing has been done; about 400 bales
of Jute were sold at £l4 to 414 10s, a few bales of Manilla at
£27 15s, and 50 bales Sunn at £lB 108 per ton. Tallow.—ln the
early part of the week some transactions took place in yellow
Candle at about previous rates, but the market has since become
inactive, and prices must be considered nearly Is lower; on
Saturday last, by auction, 800 serous, and about 200 casks Buenos
Ayres Tallow sold at 40s to 44, according to quality, being a re-
duction of Is to Is 6d per cwt.; 100 serous of very fine quality
brought 435 gd per cwt.

day, and the business is only to a moderate extent, the sales
not exceeding 3,000 bags, without change from the current
prices of yesterday.

the sales which are all to the trade do not exceed 2000 bags, con.
sisting principally of American descriptions. Prices are without
any change from those of yesterday.

COTTON MARKET, MAY 24

We have again to report a moderate extent of business in Cotton
to-day, with a continuance of the dull feeling which prevailed on
Saturday. The sales which include 200 bales American and 200
Surats, purchased for exportation, are 3000 bales, without •any
material alteration from the current rates of last week, although
all descriptions are rather heavy of sale,
