hand to buy, or on the other to sell, and the f day passed off quietly—sales only 180 bales. The non-arrival of the Northern Mail on Mon day, doubtless exercised a strong influence in checking operations on that day ; one or two purchasers, however, were in attendance on the market, some 600 bales were sold, and at the close of business there was a decided buoyancy in prices. The detailed advices by I the steamer reached us on Tuesday, and were, on the whole, considered favorable; which, taken in connexion with the great deficiency I in the receipts, the limited supply in the hands of factors, and, we might add, the existence of some demand for the article, have materially i advanced prices. During the day upwards of 1500 halos were taken by purchasers, at an improvement of £c. on the prices current at the close oi the previous week. On W ednesda}*, a good demand also prevailed, but there was a stringency in the demands of sellers that did not suit the views of buyers, and the transactions were limited to 700 bales j finding it, however, impo>sible to proceed with their orders, they came to terms on Thursday ; and 1100 hales were sold at even a greater advance than that no ticed above. Yesterday between 11 and 1200 bales were sold at the full rates of the preceed insr dayand wbenwe closed our inquiries an advance of 3to had been established on the prices current when we made up our former report. There has been very little common Cotton on sale, and the operations have consequently run almost solely on the middling fair, ana fair and fatly fair grades. We quote middling fair 7|; and fair and tally fair and Bc. The receipts of the week reach 3005 bales, and the sales in the same time comprise 4674 bales, at the following prices . —l6 bales at 7; G7 at 1593 at 7|; 1155 at 7J; and 1118 bales at Bc. We have no transactions to report in Long Cotton. Corn. —We stated in our former report that the ’Corn market during the week hud been depressed in consequence of the accumulation in the supply. •Since that period a positive reduction has been ■established in prices, and wc have accordingly re duced our quotations. Sales in large parcels have been made at prices ranging from GO to and an small lots at Gsc. and upwards. Our remarks are solely to country descriptions. Received by Rail Road 8000 bushels. There have been no arrivals of North Carolina, and present quotation* are nominal. Flour. —There has been a fair demand fortiiafe ■article during the week, chiefly for coastu ise shipment. The transactions have been confined -almost solely to country' Flour, at prices within ■the range of out quotations, principally from 5£ to $55 P er barrel. Received by Rail Road 700 bar rels. There is no Baltimore on sale, and present are nominal. The supply of Virginia is light and confined solely to the extra brands,which are selling in small lots at $7 per barrel. Salt. —Sales have been made from on shipboard, in lots to suit purchasers at slls and 120 per sack. Mostly at the latter figure. Freights. —To Liverpool,Cotton in square hags, at and 40s. for Rice; Havre, Jc. for Cotton, and $3 per GOO lbs. for Rice.
