complaints, the crops- having. sustained
considerable injury, from a seve-e storm,
which passed over. this section some five
or six weeks since. The article now
brought to market may be classed "fair,"

Can~LEs-roi,-Oct, 1
Since my last respe'dts,-on Weinesda the
25th uIt., our cott-njp iket-hiir lIpiovhd can
siderably, in regrli to a mord seiady deiiand.
Several new'tpurchasers have .made their ap
pearadeb, and imparted firmness to prices; but
without tny aathal iniprovedrent. The sales
sincst Wednesday up tu last evening have ave
raged upward of 650 bales per day ; amount
ing in all to 3.279 bales.
Frdi iesent appearancesit seems to be the
general opinion he e thatthe market will
maintain its present- position for some time to
come; with only an occasional fluctuation ac
cording to the accounts which may be received
from abroad. The receipts as yet, are but mod
erate..particularly tihoe by water. During the
last seven days, they have amounted to 4,066
bales, viz by Rail Road 3,240, by *afer 544,
and by wagons 382. Exported in same time
252 bales coas:wise, leaving on lauibd a ship
ping stock of 14,042 bales exclusive of2,080 on
shipboard not cleared. Present quotations of
Liverpool classification stand as follow: infe
rior to ordinary 41a 5J; rdiddling to middling
fair 5 a 61: fair to fully fair 6J a 6. -
For Groceries of all descriptions, the past
week lies been an exceedingly dull one-nei
ther in Sugar. Cofee or Mfeis. have there
been any wholesale transactions. and although
there is a considerable stock of either of these
articles in the market, holders show no dispo
sition to push sales, and conseqtiently remain
stationary. I quote Sugars-Musicovado-ex
tremes, $61 a $81-Coffee, 61 a 71.
CuAitusTo. , Oct. 4.
Couon.-Received since oi -last, by Rail
Road 5270 bales, by Water527, and by Wag
ons 403-makitig a total of 202 bale. Ex
ported in same time to Havre 1326 bales Up
lands. and coastwise 992 bales, makinga total
of 2318 bales, and leaving on harid a shipping
stock of 17.280 bales, exclusive of 2768 bales
on shipboard not cleared.
The somewhat better enqui-y for Uplands
which we noted in oma last weekly review to
wards the'latter part. of that week, esntinued
on the first day of the past, Saturday last, when
729 bales were disposed of. On Monday.how
ever, some .purchasersiappnaied to' have With
drawn, and the tnairket altogether since then
has borne a rather. heavy appearance. The
ihortlyexpected foreign adbounts by the Cale
donia, whose regular day 'of departure from
Liverpool was on the 19th -lt., may perhaps
have been the cause of this falling off in the de
mand. The sales since Monday have amount
ed to 1721 bales, making the total sales of the
week '2450bales.-Mercury,.
