The 1 demand for the liner grades, however, continues pretty active, and transactions are only limited in consequence of the very small supply in the mar ket, the stock, which is tolerably fair, being com posed in a great measure of the lower descriptions. Os strictly choice cottons, the market is at tue mo ment completely bare ; and parcels of this kind, if offered, would readily command 11 a cents. — Our quotations for the inferior and middling soits, remain the same as previously, and they are barely sustained, but for fair, and qualities above, they have been advanced a quarter of a cent.

Several parcels,however, have been brought from plantation,expressly for transhipment to the north. In regard to prices the market re mains about the same as at the date of our last report. Most of the sales have been at a though our extremes have been reached in so ne few instances. Strictly prime Sugars continue scarce. We are not advised of any further trans actions on plantation. Molasses —The demand for barrels from the Le vee continues fair and the supply moderate. Prices however, remain as before quoted—say IS a 19cts per gallon. No ss les on plantation have come to ! our knowledge. Flour —Since our report of Saturday last, we have to notice but little alteration in the general . character of the market, except to remark that the demand is perhaps even less animated than we then had occasion to represent it. So far as wre can learn very few sales have been made for export, and these principally to complete engagements pre viously enteicd upon. It is not probable that buy ers for nKgland will adventure upon any new ope rations,of importance, pending the receipt of later accounts hourly expected by the Great Western. We still retain our quotations of $3 90 a 3 94 for surperfme, remarking that the lower figures are the prevailing ra:e, though we are advised of one sale of a few’ hundred barrels at $3 94, and another at $3 The lat.er parcel, howevei, was not in 1 prime shipping order. The receipts since Friday have been about SSOO barrels. Bacun—We have no change to notice in the dif ferent varieties of this article. All descriptions are dull at our quotations. Whiskey —The demand continues rather limited, but it is nearly equal to the receipts, so that there is no considerable accumulation of stock. The price of Rectified is therefore still maintained at 23 a 24 cents per gallon, though most of the sales are at the foimer figures. Exchange —The supply of Sterling Bills con tinues moderate and drawers have obtained a slight advance in the rates. We now quote it 124 al3 per cent premium, with limited transactions, — French Exchange remains as before quoted, with moderate supply and limited demand. Bills on N. York at 60 days sight arc in fair request at 4 j a per cent prom. Other descriptions of northern ex change are in very little demand Fieights —At the date of our last report the fleet of ships and barks was reduced to a very small nu nber, and since that time very few vessels have rnived from sea ; consequently there have been onlv a limited number of engagements for Euro pean ports, but we have to quote no alteration in the rates.' One British and two American ships have been taken for Liverpool at Jd for cotton,and one American ship for Havre at 85 shillings for Tobacco. The rate for coUon to Havre is cent, but no ship has been engaged since our last. Coast wise freights are without material alteration. I EXCHASGE O.V NEW YORK— Vt sigh and at one to tw ty days sight.

In many hun dred certified cases which has been made public, and in almost every species ol disease to which the human frame is liable, the happy effects of MOFFAT’S LIFE PILLS AM) PHENIX BIT TERS have been gratefully and publicly nc l nowledged by the persons beoefiitted, and who were previously unacquainted with the beautifully philosophical principles upon which they are compoun led, and upon which they ejnsequeiiily act. The LIFE MEDICINES recommend themselves in diseases of every form and description. Their first operation is to loosen from the coals of the stomach and bowels, the various impurities and crudities eon-tantly settling around them ; arm to remove the hardened faeces which collect in the convolusions of the smallest intestines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such collected masses behind as to produce habitu- I al costiveinss with til Us tram of evils, or in a sud den diarrhoea, with its eminent dangers. This tact is well known to all regular anatomists, who ex amine ihe human bowels after death ; and heme the prejudice of those well informed men against quack met dunes—or medicines prepared and her alded to the public bv ignorant pi rsons. 'J he se cond effect of the Lile Medicines is to cleanse ihe kidneys and the bladder, and by this means, tho liver and the lungs, the healthful action of which entirely depends upon the regularity of the urinary organs. The blood, w hich lakes its red color Irom the agency of the liver and the longs before it pas*es into’.he heat, being thus purified by them and nourished by (bod coming from a clean stom ach, courses freely thiough the veins, renews every part of the system, and triumphantly mounts the banner of health in the blooming cheek.

All ihai Mr. Moffat requires of his patient is to be particular in taking the Life Medicines stru lly according to the directions. It is not by a news paper notice, or any thing that he himself may say in their lavor, that he hopes to gain credit. It >s alone by the resul of a fair trial.
