LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, SEPTEMBER 2.

-------- _
An exceedingly quiet day in Cotton ; the amount of busi-
ness does not exceed 2500 bales, at similar prices to yester-
day. The sales of the week are 21,000 bales : speculators
take near 5000, and the trade the remainder. Prices gene-
rally id. per lb. lower.

COTTON MARKET, SEPTEMBER 5

The demand for Cotton has almost subsided, consumers (who are
fortunate enough to be at work) are working up 'their stocks.
Speculators have entirely withdrawn themselves, so that we appear
unusually quiet. On Saturday 2509 bales were sold,"and to-day
only 2,000, prices stationary. the b uyer having the advantage. At
the same time holders found it useless to press their stocks, and
now seem quiet, and willing to wait a revival of demand.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, SEPT. 2.

The duty on Foreign Wheat is again advanced this week,
being now 12s. per quarter, with a certainty of an increase
in the rate until it reaches close upon the highest point; that
on Rye is raised to Bs. 6d., on Pease to 9s. Gd. per quarter,
and on Flour to 7s. 2d. per barrel : the Colonial Wheat duty
also will shortly be higher.
We have a fair fresh supply of Wheat from European
ports, with a few thousand barrels of States and Canadian
Flour, which forming the bulk of the arrivals into this port
within the past three days, the general imports are rather
moderate ; the market at the same time being less pressed
with samples from granary, and the improved tone lately
manifested here being confirmed by a corresponding feeling
in London and several leading markets of the country, the
trade has assumed more buoyancy between Tuesday.last and
to-day ; the disposition to purchase Wheats on speculation
has continued, and at the rates of our last Circular, some
large sales have been effected, but many holders looking for
an advance has served to check much general business.
At this morning's market both town and country millers
freely paid the full rates of Tuesday, for the general qualities
of Wheat, and inclusive of one or two parcels taken for
holding over, a fair amount of business has been done. A.
good demand was also experienced for Flour, fresh descrip-
tions of which are becoming comparatively scarce, and for
such Gd. per barrel advance has been obtained to-day.
In Barley, Beans, and Pease, we have no alteration to
note, there being scarcely any enquiry for any of these arti-
cles to-day.
Old Melding Oats were in better request, but no improve-
ment on late prices could be effected : rather extensive pur-
chases of old Oatmeal, the stock of which is much reduced,
were made on country orders, and an amendment of Is. per
sack was realised : the supply of new coming forward in very
limited Quantity ; a small lot of the latter brought 28s. Gd.
per 240 lbs.
Much rain has fallen on Wednesday night and yesterday,
which appears to have been general through this district ; but
the interruption to harvest work, in the small compass where
it is incomplete, is only temporary, to-day being again very
fine, with brisk drying winds.
