Money .llarI;et-Consols closed in London to-
day at 923 for money, and 924 for time. EXchcquer
Bills 80 to lbs. Premium.
Bacon.-With only moderate enquiry, we have
| dull market, the sales being chiefly confined to
low qualities, for which less money has been taken
An expectation of shipments from London has also
tended to depress prices, although stocks deci-
dedEy reduced. Hams have been in better request
but we can note no improvement in Shoulders
BaIk.-j0 hogsheads of first Philadelphia, on the
spot, have been sold at U.s. and 80 hogsheads to ar
rive, at los. u cwt.
BGef-We do not alter our quotations, the trans
actions having been very trifng.
Butter has been easier to buy, without much de-
mand.
Cheese.-Our market is almost entirely bare of
stock.
Corn, S'c.-The weather having remained favor
able for harvest, decided progress has been made in
securing the crops, aed we have had another week
Of extreme dullness-quite retail business, and at
easier prices. Choice Wheat has about held its
ground, but other sorts have declined considerably.
Flour is also lower. Of the Potato disease we hear
only partial rumors and Indian Corn is little MOTTO
ed, but maintains its price. At to-day's market
there a very limited attendance, and sales were
unimportant.
CottOn.-Imported this week, 16,l1l bales; sales,
81, $50 bales; and present stock 6l5,OOJ bales,
| against 50j,65O bales at period last year.
Upon the arrival of the Cambria trihng advance
was established, but the trade have since operated
more sparingly, and our quotations remain much the
same. The accounts from India being considered
favorable, and Spectators and Exports still main
tanning a considerable demand, the market closed
firmly. To-day, the sales are 5000 bales Specu-
lators have this week, taken 1870 bales, and for
Export 100 bales.
Lard-The late advance has checked operations,
and we have had quiet market
Pork, OF inferior qualities, has been sold at our
lowest quotations In other sorts scarcely any thing
doing.
Rice.-There is a moderate demand for Carolina.
ROSm.-Of Common Amber there is very little
here and SIS. ~ cwt. has been obtained for 800
brls, and los. for so brs. of very fine.
TdIIotv remains without any material alteration.

Cotton.-On the arrival Of the last steamer with
continued unfavorable accounts of the growing crop,
a speculative inquiry for Cotton sprung up, causing
slight advance in prices, but the demand from the
trade having in no way responded the market again
became unusually depressed, and i'll some instances
sales were made at decline of fully I'd. a Id U ID.
The accounts from India received yesterday being
considered favorable, the market rallied, enabling
holders partially to recover what they had lost in
the early part of the week, thereby placing the Of
fetal quotations at the same point as in our last
Circular though it would be still difficult to realize
them for the middling and lower grades in quantity
