CRESCENT OFFICE. No. 10 Canip street.
Saturday Morning. Dec. H. 1859. (
A fair amount of business has been done in our
general market during the past week, though the
rates for some of the leading articles have shown
less steadiness. The Medium and better qualities
OF Cotton however, have been very firm, and the
closing prices for Sugar and Molasses showed a
tendency in favor of sellers. In Flour we have
noticed some f1uctuation, while Corn has farther
advanced, in consequence of limited supplies.
Pork has been steady and in fair request, but other
kinds of Provisions are inactive The Freight
market has been heavy, with rather dropping
tendency in the rates.
Yesterday morning we published the Nova
scotian's advices, embracing Liverpool dates to
the LIST inst. They reported heavy Cotton market.
with sales of about 10000 bales during the first
three days of the week, and Is 900 on Wednesday
and Thursday together, the market closing quiet
and weak without quotable change in prices. The
accounts from Manchester were represented to be
very favorable.
COTTON. There has been very fair demand
for Cotton during the past week, though the bust
ness has been somewhat restricted by the limited
supply of desirable lists which have been held at
very full prices. The sales of the week have en-
braced some IS, 800 bales of which 5000 on Satur-
day, $4,000 on Monday, l0,50O on Tuesday, 10, 900
on Wednesday, 10,5OO on Thursday, and $500
yesterday the market being firm for the Mddling
and better qualities, and closing at the range of
our quotations, as follows:

GKoReETowN, April "a, 1859.
Our City Councils held an adjourned meeting
last night, and completed most Of the large mas
Of business which had sccumulated upon their
hands during the last week OF two Theaedinsnce
providing for general distribntion Of the aque-
duct water through the streets of the town. was
recouimitted to the COMMITTEES on water 20 report
q more perfect and general bill on Friday night
next. Most OF IL not all, the rest of the measures
acted upon last night appeared in detail in the
of Yesterday. We therefore deem il unnecessary
to give them In detail again today
1t Is rumored in our city that letter has been
received from one OF the superintendent upon the
Chesapeake and Ohio canal that some damage has
been done by the late freshet In the Potomac 20
dam No. 4. The report says that the guard hank
and one of the cribs, has been carried away. This
dam, however, as well as No. s, both betng CON-
pletely submerged by the water, we presume IT ID
impossible to tell before the water subsidies what
amount of mischief, If any, has been done. We
sincerely hope that the rufnor is unfoundcd.
The schooner Only Son, which was sunk by the
violence of the storm at Cock Pit Point on Satur-
day last, has been raised without having received
any serious damage. The cargo, however, was
all considerably injured. We learn this morning
aforementioned schooner. who fishes IL W ind
mill Point, has been catching more fish the last
day or two than at any other period this season.
We advise the readers of the Star. one and all
to examine the advertisement of our friend Lewis
Payne, No. n Bridge street He has bv far the
finest and most attractive establishment of the kind
in city. His stock OF boots and shoes of every
kind and quality, home manufacture, is unsuf-
passed by any in the district
