Augusta Market, Dec. 10.
COTTON. —The transactions in this market, during the
week under review, have been to a fair extent, notwith
standing we have had one or two dull days. The mar
ket opened on Wednesday quiet, in consequence of buy
ers demanding a reduction to which holders refused to
markeic&f’as firmer. On Friday the demand continued
good, airs after the receipt of the Humboldt’s advices,
prices stiffened, and holders were able to realize an ad
vance of } a } cent on the prices paid the day previous.
On the afternoon of this day, a crop lot of about 130
bales, from the plantation of Mr. T. N. Pollain, Greene
county, brought 8} cents. On Saturday, the Niagara's
advices came to hand. The demand, during the day,
was good, and the sales to a fair extent at Friday’s pri
ces. On Monday, the market opened with a fair de
mand, which continued up to the receipt of the Pacific s
advices, three days later, and noticing a further advance
in the Liverpool market of } a Jd. —fair Uplands quoted
at s}d. These advices caused holders to put up their
prices | a } cent, which buyers being unwilling to give,
they, in a measure, retired from the market, and the
transactions, for the remainder of the day, were limited
Yesterday, (Tuesday) the market opened quiet, and as
buyers and sellers could not come together, we heard
of no transactions. There has not been sufficient done
since the receipt of the Pacific’s news to establish quo
tations. We would remark, however, that most sellers
are asking 8 cents for middling Fair, and 8} a 8* for
Fully Fair, and so far, have refused to take less.

GROCERIES. —There has been a fair business done
the past week in the Grocery line, and merchants from
the interior, who brought cash with them (which is a
a very scarce article at this time) we have no doubt re
turned home, well satisfied with their purchases. We
have made some changes in our quotations this week,
as several articles, mentioned below, have an upward
tendency. . ...
CORN. The demand is still limited to immediate
wants. Prices tend upwards—holders are asking from
flO to 90 cents—the latter price by retail. Sales have
been reported to us of about 3,000 bushels prime Ten
nessee, to be delivered at the Georgia Railroad Depot,
at 75 cents —and in parcels, under 500 bushels, at 80c.
Seed Rye is dull at 90c. to sl, and Oats at 55 to 62 cents
per bushel—the latter price by retail.
BACON. We have still a slight stock on hand, but it
is all sufficient to meet the demand, which is moderate.
We now quote sides at 11 a 12} cents—principal sales at
11} to 12 cents by the small quantity.
LARD.—Not much enquiry—sales making by small
quantity, at prices ranging from 11 to 12 C'—ts.
COFFEE. —There is a fair stock on hand, and prices
are looking upwards —we now quote Rio at 9} a 10} cts.
-a choice article will bring 11 cents by the single bag
SUGARS. —Good stock on hand —no change to notice
in prices. Our quotations will give a fair index of prices
MOLASSES. —There is a good demand for Cuba, and
prices tend upwards—good is scarce. The stock on
hand is light and most holders are asking 25 cents ba
ttle hhdt,,£6y auction, a lot of 30 bbls. old crop, sweet
New Orleans, was sold at 31 cents.
SALT. —The Stock on hand is very light, notwith
standing some 3 or 400 bags have been received this
week from below. Most of that received, however, was
sold previous to arrival, at $1 20 per sack from the
wharf, and has been shipped to towns in the interior.—
Holders are reluctant sellers from store at $125.
WHEAT.—We still quote good Red at 90 a $1. —
White is scarce. Our City Mills, however, are well sup
plied with Virginia and Maryland, and are kept busy in
grinding.
FLOUR. There is a good demand for City Mills.
We now quote for white Wheat 6} to s7} per bbl
as in quality, and for red at 5} a6. There is a good
supply of Northern and country on hand, but the de
mand for these descriptions is limited.
STOCKS. —There is but little demand for Stocks, and
little or none offering. The only sale we have heard
of was a lot of 13 shares Bank Brunswick, at public sale,
jit an average of 107jj. Some Georgia Railroad has
l»pi>n on the market at par, without finding a purchaser.
EXCHANGE.— We have no change to notice in the
rates for Northern Exchange, which continue at } per
cent. prem. for Sight Checks on New-York and other
Northern cities. On Charleston and Savannah our
Banks are drawing at par.
FREIGHTS —Our river is again getting low. Con
siderable Cotton has been shipped this week to Savan
nah and Charleston per river, at 50 cents per bale to the
former and 75 to the latter. The Railroad, wo believe,
Still asks $1 per bale to Charleston.
SAVANNAH. Dec. B.— Cotton.-^ There was quite a
good demand for Cotton yesterday, which resulted in
the sale of 1.451 bales, at the following particulars
