Ilavaiia Market. \ HAVANA, Friday Evening, December 14.-SUGAR (CL -.YED.)-There is some demand for special qualities for Spain, for which reason we believe that the first arri? val of tho new crop will bring good prices. Some 1500 boxes of the same havo come to market, but tho greater pari- are of low grade. For foreign markets the ox^era tiou3 have been of small importance, for want of the grades from Nos. 10 and 13, in good condition, which are most in request for thc said ports. In sales on the spot ?we note the following :-323 boxes, No. 9, at rials arrobe; 400 boxes, No. 8 34, at 7% rials arrobe.

The New York Evening JPosi Of Saturday, 22d instant, says Gold has sold down to 132%, and the borrowing rate ranges from flat to % per cent a day in favor of the len? der. Foreign exchange is dull at 109. There appears to be more ease and loss activity in. mo? ney this morning. Tho rate for loans on call is 7 per cent on miscellaneous collaterals, and 6 per cent on gov? ernments with a fair volume of business atJower rates. Discounts aro dull at 7a9. Very few choice Dills are ma? king in consequence cf the dullness of trade. The stock market- is better. Governments ore steady at the decline, and there is more disposition to invest. Railroad shares have in part recovered from the heavy faR which took place after board hours last evening. At the opening, however, in the street, there was a very de? pressed feeling, prices being irregular. For gold this forenoon the following were the leading quotations: 10:00 133%; 10:30 132%; 10:45 133; 11:00 132%; 11:30 133%; 12:00 133%; 12:30 133%; 1:00133%; 1:30 133%; 2:00 133%. The dopression of gold and foreign exchange, with the consequent decline ot five-twenties and derangement of our foreign trade, have elicited "information from the De? partment as to whether the Treasury was soUing. A "Washington semi-official dispatch says that "a denial was given in all cases. The Secretary claims that he sells gold only when he wants currency, and that he does not make a sale merely to reduce the premium on gold. He prefers obtaining currency in that way to calling on the national banks." II the sales of gold are made to avoid caihng on the national banks for tho Government money they hold, it will be well to inquire in what banks the largest sums are deposited. The receipts of gold reported for customs for the week ending December 15,1866, are as follows compared with those of the preceding week: This week. Last week.

Since the date of our last weekly circular, our intelli- ; gence from Liverpool has been of a more favorable char? acter. The irrr sistible logic of facts and figures is at last admitted by Lancashire, and the wild estimates so sedu? lously circulated regarding the present yield of cotton in this country appear about to receive the quietus we so [ often predicted, they would. Tho advance, howovor, which has as yet taken pTace there, is as nothing to what must assuredly follow, if | Liverpool is to bo a bidder for any fair proportion of our stocks. Every point of reduction in gold here must be met wth a corresponding improvement in tho price of tho staple there, for no longer docs there exist a doubt in tho minds of tho most sceptical regarding thc shortness and failure of this year's crop. Receivers arc strone in this belief, and intend to resisti? thc Inst any and all efforts which n ay bo used to induce a concession even on the lots which they reluctantly offer for sale on account of tho requirements of a needy consignor. No large lines aro oxposed for sale. Few contracts for future delivery aro upon tho market, and none at less price than one cent | per mouth over x>resunt quotations, or about an equiva? lent for cost of carr ing Cotton, including a fair interest j for tho outlay of capital. Ono of thc chief features of tho market during tho j week was the oxport dpmaud for Good Ordinary and Low | Middling farades, resulting, in their marked improve? ments, v.-hilst the better grades were comparatively neg? lected, consequently our quotations present a closer prox-1 imity in thc relative value of grades than for somo time [ past. The condition of the gold market to-day has unsettled thc views and actions of exporters. Holders, however, aro firm. Tho sales include only 1750 bales, mostly | made by weak and timid holders. We quote : N. Orleans ! Uplands. Mobile. and Texas.

Of Corn the receipts wore moderately large, 18,000 bush? els white and 9000 bushels of yellow, but prices for white wore not quite so strong, choice dry selling about 2 cents below the rates of the past two days; yellow was without any noticeable change; sales of white were for damp 90 j cents and upwards; mixed 98 cents; dry, good to prime, 1 il 03 to 1 06; of yellow 11,000 bushels sold at 4.1 to $1 01. Oats were rather dull; receipts 1170 bushels, nud sales only 200 bushels at 61 cents, weight. Of Rye 20 bushels offered, but no sale was reported. Boston Boot and Shoe Market. BOSTON, December 19.-The demand continues limited j to small parcels. There aro but few buyors in town and j they aro looking up and watching the market, but make few puri'.haiies, as the season is so near the close for win? ter goods. Prices have not changed materially, but aro somewhat nominal in consequence of the dull trade sea? son. In going through the market we notice there is a disposition to improve the quality of goods for thc com? ing season, and the best quality is meeting with more favor than the poorer grades with tho trado.
