LIVERPOOL COMMERCIAL MARKET. Aua. 18.
Sugar.-The demand has been very limited, and the market
has given way 6d. to Is. per cwt. on all ties.Tiptions ; the sales
consist of 550 hhds. 8.P., 2500 bags Bengal, chiefly good to fine
white, at 418. to 41s. 9d., 500 Mauritius at 365 to 3Ss., and 250
Madras at 325. per cwt. Foreign.-A fair business has been
done during the week, at steady prices ; the sales are 175 cases,
90 bags Bahia, at from 395. 9d. to 425. for white, and 355. to 38s.
for brown, 800 boxes Havana, at 388. for brown, and 405. 6d.
for good yellow, 230 hhds. Porto Rico and 500 bags and barrels
Venezuela at the quotations. The only sale reported in Mo-
lasses is 40 casks Demerara at 16s. per cwt. Coffee.-The low
price of Plantation Ceylon in the London market still acts pre-
judicially on the value of Jamaica in this, and as our dealers
continue to supply themselves freely from the former source,
the demand for Jamaica is limited; sO tees. have been sold by
auction, chiefly at 30s. to 495. for ordinary to low middling.
700 bags 1 aguayra and 150 bags Rio are reported at rather
lower rates. 1000 bags Para Cocoa sold at 255. 9d., a small lot
of Bahia at 325. per cwt., and 200 bags Black Pepper at 3d. per
Ib. No sales of Ginger or Pimento. Rice.-There has been a
fair demand, and the sales latterly are at rather higher prices ;
nothing doing in Carolina; 6000 bags Bengal brought 10s. for
broken to 12s. 6d. for good white. Rum.-The low price seems
to have attracted the attention of the trade, and 1000 puns.
have been sold at rather improving rates; the following are the
quotations. Demerara, proof strength, at Is. 7d. to Is. Bd., 18
to 27 at Is. 11d. to 2s. 5d., 32 to 40 per cent. at 2s. 7d. to 25.8(1.,
and a good mark at 3s. Id. per gallon, and cloudy Last India at
Is. 61,1. per gallon, proof.
The Tea market is well supplied with nearly all kinds of
Black and Green Tea, but the Trade are only buying sparingly,
and prices are barely maintained.
Some small sales have been made in East India Gum Arabic ;
10 tons of Senegal were sold at 625. 6i1., 50 chests of Shell Lac
at former rates, and 100 bags of Bengal Turmeric at 15s. ;
Gambier being in few hands, Ils. has beets obtaine,.-: for a small
parcel; 50 cases of fine Castor Oil have brought an advance,
having realized Sid. per Ibs; a few boxes of Pearl Sago sold at
225., and 400 bags Sago Flour at 16s. per cwt.-Tlie market for
Saltpetre continues ex remely heavy, and very trifling sales re-
ported.-25 tons of Nitrate of Soda brought 11s. 6d. per cwt.
There is no particular change to notice in Guano, and but
few transactions have taken place.

MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, AUGUST 19.
The very unsettled state of the weather since our last report
has produced an active demand for Flour, at gradually improv-
ing prices, in which almost all other articles of the trade have
participated. With fine weather again this tnorninz, our mar-
ket was of a quieter nature. Nevertheless, we must note an
advance of 3d. to 4d. per 70 lbs. on Wheat, and 2d. to 3d. per
45 lbs. on Oats. On Flour, of which there was but little offer-
ing, we likewise raise our quotations 2s. per sack ; whilst Oat-
meal found a more ready sale at Is. per load over the rates ob-
tainable on this day se'nnight.
