MANCHESTER, Jan, 1.-THE Guardian says:
Sellers nave made no progress The market is
tame Sales were small and much under the
average. Buyers IN some departments nave
purchased on more favorable terms than on
Friday, but they have not enlarged their opera
tions or raised their offers for large quantities;
their present offers are too low for acceptance.
Producers have occasionally accepted easter
terms and are more anxious to sell. Indian in
curry is poor, though merchants are ready to
repeat the offers rejected last week. There have
been few orders for China at trine under
regular rates, but the section is quiet after De-
cember full business which pretty fully salts
ned buyers wants and placed production under
contract for several future weeks. Export yarns
are inactive. Cloth trade does not improve.
Heavy goods are quiet but steady"

Green & Co. S report on cotton futures says:
The cotton certificate market was generally
in better form, and the range OF value averaged
considerably higher Liverpool did not make
very favorable showing; indeed in some respects
was less encouraging than yesterday. The reia-
tive positions of supply and demand have
changed somewhat on this market, and the bull
side gains accordingly. 1t looks in fact, as If
tired long cotton had pretty well iquidated,
and some of the recently made shorts were in
clned to cover which, with the assistance of
some of the large concerns, afford an infusion
of renewed strength AdviceS from the South
are also of a character TO check further addI-
tons to crop estimates After gaming l3gGl4
points there slight setback, but the close
was pretty firm

CHICAGO, Jan. 1.-THE grain markets were
quiet, with a tendency to firmness, at the open
ing this morning. There was no decided move
ment during the first hour. Trading was Of
light volume and of a scalping character In
spite of the liberal export movement of wheat
aud -four, reported from the seaboard, wheat
went down steadily. There was considerable
selling on the part of two prominent operators.
and the small scalpers followed them. May
wheat sold as low as $500 at one time. Corn
was dull. During the greater part of the
