Since our last weekly report our mar ket has continued to decline, and closed to-day at cents for Fair in square bales, the quantity offering is very small, and but little has been disposed of at that rate. The receipts during the month of October this year are but 16,733 bales, against 35,945 bales during the same period last year; most of the Cotton is now stored and holders do not seem willing yet to submit to the present low rates, whilst buyers are not anxious even at the above rate. The sales of the week sum up 1390 bales, as follows lat 5 ; 460 at 6| ; 125 at 7; 39 at 71 ; 286 at 7£ ; 22 at 7|; 142 at 7$ ; 153 at 7j; 50 at 7 ; 68 and 387 at 7| ; 6at 7 ; 81 and 77 at igj and 142 at 8 cents. -The sales above 74 cents were made in the early part of the week. COR N.—V ery little of this article has been brought to market this Fall, from the interior. It sells from waggons in the ear at 45 cts., it would command 50 a 55 cts. in sacks. BACON AND LARD.—The supply of this arti cle is equal to the demand. Sams of sides have been made during the week at 9 a 10 cents from the wag gons, and Lard 12 cts. FLOUR. —The receipts oft his article from the coun try continue fair, a good article readily commandsss, whilst some extra brands command $5.25 a 5.50 per bbl. - ' BA(jGING AND BALE ROPE, —Sales of Ken tucky Bagging continue to be made by the quantity, at 164 a 17 cts. for cash and on time, retail price 18 cts.; Gunny Bagging has been sold at 21 cts. by the lot, anti retails at 22 cts.; Rope is scarce and readily commands 9 cts. SUGAR and COFFEE.—Our market is well stocked with both these articles, and we are induced to believe, from the low rates at which our dealers supplied themselves, that country merchants need not look to any other market for their supplies. I>R\ GOODS. — Shoes , Hals, Hardware, Crock ery, tfre. —The almost daily arrivals of the boats have added so considerably to onr Merchants’ Stocks, that in all the above lines they are able to induce many merchants from the interior to go no further, and so far this fall the wholesale business of the city has much improved, EXCHANGE. —Checks on New-York are abun dant at 4 per cent. prem.—on Charleston and Savan nah par, FREIGHTS. —Our river is now in good boating order, and the two new light draught boats built this summer by our company, give great facilities for ship ments of produce by the river. Freights to Savannah 75 cents per bale —to Charleston, by the river, $1 per hale. hj.vtractfrom Wright & Lew ins' Circular. Per Cambria. NEW \ORK, Oct. 30, 1647. —In our circular per Hibernia, on 15th inst., we noticed a decline in all the Cotton markets of the United States, and are again compelled to advise a further and considerable reduction in the price of this important staple. This has been produced in a great measure by the unfavor able nature of the accounts from England by the steamer of sth October, and somewhat by the fine weather for the maturing and picking of the present crop at the South. Although we were prepared for unfavorable accounts from England by the last steam er, the decline of Id. to l*d. per lb. from the 19th September, to slh October, coupled with the further disastrous failures, the continued pressure in the mo ney-market, and the unprofitable and limited business in the manufacturing districts, was indeed beyond the most gloomy anticipations. The result on this mar ket, as particularised hereafter, has been a decline of 14 to l|c., to which extent we anticipate cotton will fall in the southern ports, as soon as the foreign news and its effect in this city shall be received. The diffi culty of negotiating bills on England here and at the south, to which we alluded in our last, has increased since that time, to which must be attributed in part the trifling sales of Cotton during the past fort night for the English markets. In relation to the growing crop, we have nothing of import to add to our remarks on 15th inst., except that the weather throughout the entire South has con tinued of the most favorable nature forth* prospects of the planter. We have accounts of a slight frost hav ing occurred on the 14th, 15th and 16th, which we are satisfied, however, has nut done any injury. During the last three or four days we have had very cold weather here, with ice of considerable thickness, wh'ch perhaps Warrants the presumption that frost has extended over the whole Cotton region, and put a stop to the further growth of the plant. Public opinion here and at the South appears to have settled upon a crop of about 2,200,000 bales. We view the extent of the production, now, as a matter of much less im portance t han we did six weeks ago, and are of opin ion that the demand and not the supply will decide the question of price for some time to come. Planters, however, are much more likely to hold back the crop this year than usual, in case of very low prices, from their increased prosperity and pecuniary ability to do so. A fair business continued to be transacted in this market for the remainder of the week ending 16tb inst., at the prices as last quoted by us, the total sales summing up 6.250 bales. On Monday the 18th inst. we received by telegraph from Boston an outline of the news by the Cambria, which put a stop to all ransactions. On the follow ing day the letters were received, and caused much gloom and disappointment, and few if any sales were made. On Wednesday buyers made their appearance, and prices gave way at once a cent per pound. During each succeeding day of last week, holders evinced a pressing desire to realize, and every sale almost was made at a slight reduction, until at the close of the week ending 23d, the decline amounted to per pound, and the sales reached 9,000 bales. During the early part of the present week, holders continued to force the market, and a further falling off in price of |c., and in some instances £c. per pound, was appa rent ; for a day or two past, however, the tuarkethas assumed more steadiness, and holders refuse to sub mit to the outside reduction, under the bel/ef that if frost has been general at the South, a slight reaction may soon be looked for. The sales this week up to last evening have been 10,000 bales. The business continues to be done almost exclusively for the French and continental markets. Liverpool purchase rs have taken little or nothing during the past two weeks, nor are any shipments making at this time for Great Britain on American account. Our domestic manu facturers also, for some short time past, have taken much less than their usual supply, though it is ex pected they must buy freely before the close of navi gation for the winter, which belief is not without its influence on the minds of some of the present holders of Cotton. LIVERPOOL CLASSIFICATION.— UPLAND. Inferior none Pair ..91 a Ordinary 8 aBJ Good fair nom.

Flour and Naval Stores, Is. 6d. per bbl. Corn 6d. per bushel and heavy freights 255. per ton. Exchanges, until within the last two days, have been dull, particularly in sterling bills, owing to the distrust existing in regard to many houses in England, I n T * eai that should the panic there continue much onger, some really solvent parties might be compeUed from the force of circumstances, t» succumb to the ex isting pressure. For a day or two past some large sales of Canada and other Bank bills have been made at 94 to 9| per cent, and bills at three days sight have been sold at lOf percent. The shipments of silver to France continue on a somewhat larger scale, while gold to England is now being sent in lieu of bills as remittances. The packets sailed within a few days past have taken some $250,000 to $300,000 ; and it is expected that the steamer from Boston on Mon day next will carry out very near if not quite $500,- 000. _ Correspondence of Balt.
