We have no particular remarks to make this month, beyond those which are more naturally placed under the respective heads. There appears, if we may trust the newspaper accounts, to be a considerable improvement in the manufacturing districts. The Leeds Mercury states, that from the return of the woollen manufacture of the West Riding of Yorkshire, for the quarter ending 30th of September, it is ascertained that the quantity of goods manufactured within that period exceeds the most flourishing quarter in the memory of

man.

The Third Report of the Committee of the House of Commons, on the foreign trade of the country, is published. It relates to the trade with China, and agrees with that of the Lords, in expressing an opinion that some degree of liberty might be allowed to British subjects, with respect to the tea trade, without at all infringing on the monopoly of the East India Company, which the committee considers it as absolutely necessary to maintain unim paired.

Cotton. The cotton market has been heavy for this month past: the unfavourable state of the Liverpool and Manchester markets, after our last report, tended much to decrease the demand; but the sellers were, however, not inclined to come forward at any reduction, with the exception of some holders of India cottons; the sales have, of course, been very limited. In the course of last week, the reports from the country still continuing unfavourable, and the East India descriptions having been so long depressed, the holders evinced much disposition to effect sales; in several instances, the late India House prices were accepted, and one parcel of Surats was reported to have been sold at a reduction of d. per lb. The purchases in the course of last week were only about 500 bags; viz. 200 Bengals, very ordinary, 54d. and 51d. good 54d. and 53d.; 200 Surats, very ordinary and leafy, 6'd. to 7d.; good fair, 63; Sea islands, good fair, 17d. to good 19d. in bond; 50 H V. Carriacou, 104d. duty paid. We again notice the great decrease in the quantity of East India cotton imported in the first ten months of this year, as compared with the same period last year; viz. from 45,080 bales in 1820, to 23,710 in 1821. The stock on the 1st of November, 1820, was 210,600 bales; and on the 1st of Nov. 1821, 166,115 bales.

The Liverpool market has also been languid. The sales in four weeks, from Oct. 20, to Nov. 17, were 31,610 bags; the arrivals, 31,800 bags. The account for the last week is the most favourable: there had been a fair demand for cotton, though the

public sales, announced for the 16th, amounted to 6,000 bags; these sales, however, went off steadily at the full prices of the preceding week; and in some instances, an advance was obtained on the lower description of American cotton.

Sugar. The reduction in the price of sugars about the time of our last report, had the effect of attracting considerable purchasers; extensive sales by private contract were made, but without any immediate influence on the prices. The de mand, however, continuing to be steady and considerable, has led to an improvement in Muscovades; the stocks decreasing rapidly, on account of the large weekly deliveries for home consumption, the holders have become more firm; few supplies are expected, and it is generally believed that prices will improve considerably, especially towards the spring

The refined market has not experienced any considerable variation; for though the demand for home consumption has been extensive, the advanced season for export, and the limited demand for shipping, have made the holders rather anxious to effect sales, and a small reduction in the prices has been submitted to; this reduction appeared last week to facilitate sales, and several export houses purchased freely. The shipping houses continue to inquire after refined goods deliverable in spring; but they cannot obtain contracts at the present prices; only a considerable parcel of crushed sugars is reported to be contracted for, deliverable early in the year, at prices rather higher than the market currency.

Foreign sugars have been in a very depressed state, and almost wholly neglected. At a sale at the India House, on the 31st of October, sugars of fine quality went for 2s. to 4s. higher than the previous prices, in consequence of the scarcity of West India sugars with colour. The following is the favourable report of the market, for the week ending the 20th instant. The demand for good and fine sugars greatly im proved last week, and, as these descriptions are scarce, the holders were firm, and obtained an advance of from 1s. to 28.; the inferior brown descriptions were in more request at prices a shade higher.

This forencon the demand for Muscovades continues general and rather extensive: the good sugars sell readily at the advance we have stated; the brown de scriptions, which have hung heavily on hand for a series of weeks, go off freely at the prices which were previously demanded, but could not be obtained. There is every prospect of a further and more considerable improvement in sugars. The estimated sales to-day are 2000 hhds.

Coffee. The market has been steady and improving during the last four weeks. The languid appearance of the market towards the close of last month having caused a suspension of public sales, the demand by private contract immediately revived, and pale. St. Domingo in bags realised 102s. in casks 100s. This induced the bringing forward of three public sales on the 30th ult. consisting of 240 casks British Plantation, 267 bags St. Domingo; a great proportion of the former fine: fine ordinary Dominica sold at 107s. to 108s. 6d.: the few lots of ordinary Jamaica in the sale went 38. to 5s. per cwt. higher than any previous prices; good ordinary, which had been previously sold at 96s. to 98s. realised 101s. to 1038. There was no alteration in the prices of any other description of coffee; ordinary St. Domingo sold at 98s 6d. the good quality in bags was taken in at 102s.; Dominica supported the previous prices.

In the course of the following week the public sales amounted to 823 casks, and 824 bags, which all sold freely at the late advance, and considerable private contracts were reported at the same sales. Only one public sale of 127 casks Jamaica and Dominica being brought forward on the 6th instant, an advance of 2s. to 3s. per cwt. was obtained; the market was very firm, and the qualities suitable for home consumption, being much inquired after and scarce, commanded high prices. In the following week the same description of coffee, of which about 460 casks were brought forward in public sale, again advanced from 28. to 3s. per cwt. Little was done in foreign and other descriptions, not adapted to home consumption, and their prices did not vary. The public sales of coffee, after Tuesday, last week, consisted of 410 casks, and 298 bags; the whole sold freely, and generally at prices 18. to 28. higher, particularly the good ordinary clean Jamaica, which continues in great request for home consumption, a considerable parcel realised 102s. 6d. and 103s. St. Domingo in casks, fair quality, realised 100s. 6s. and 101s. very ordinary 98s.

The public sales of coffee yesterday afternoon consisted of 101 casks 1 bag, Demerara and Berbice descriptions; middling sold 122s. to 124s. good middling 130s.; one lot of ordinary to good ordinary Jamaica 100s. Generally the coffee market may be reported steady; the former prices fully supported, but little business doing, except for the home trade.

Rum, Brandy, and Hollands.-The West India Dock Company have lowered the rent from 7d. per puncheon weekly to Jd.

and then to 3d per puncheon, and the hhd. 2d. It is expected that this great reduction in the rent will tempt speculators to come forward. The market continued to improve last week, purchasers could not buy on such low terms as formerly, and generally the holders were exceedingly firm, anticipating higher prices, as the quantity expected is trivial, and the imports next season, on account of the failure of the crops of sugar in Jamaica, will undoubtedly be limited. The public sale of Friday, 147 puncheons Jamaica, attracted much attention, on account of the fine quality of the rum, and being a favourite mark:-27 to 30 O. P. sold at 2s. 5d. to 2s. 6d.; 32 to 33 ditto at 2s. 7d. to 2s. 8d. The remainder of the sale was rum of an uncommon strength, 50 O. P. sold at 3s. Gd.; average of 45 O. P. 2s. 9d. to 3s. Brandies have continued to advance for some weeks, and we must again quote an improvement of 4d. to 6a. per gallon. The public sale of rum yesterday forenoon sold at full prices; it consisted of 177 puncheons Jamaica, chiefly of good quality-11 to 13 O. P. at Is. 6d. to 1s. 7d.; 25 to 27 ditto at 1s. 9d. to Is. 11d.; 28 to 30 ditto at 2s. to 2s. 3d.

Hemp, Flax, and Tallow.-The tallow market has been in a very depressed state, and has declined in price. The prices of hemp have continued to advance, the demand being considerable, and the imports appearing inadequate. Flax also is more in demand.

Tobacco. The demand is good, and prices have advanced.

Indigo-Is at a premium of 2d. to 3d. per lb. on the prices of the East India sale.

Corn. The annexed table will show that the opinion which we have all along expressed on the improbability of the average price of wheat rising, so as to admit foreign wheat in the year 1821, are confirmed.

The aggregate averages of corn for the last six weeks, which regulate Foreign import, are

Wheat 588. 8d. | Oats 21s. Od. Rye 278. 5d. Beans 31s. 2d. Barley 29s.10d. Peas 32s. ld. All descriptions of foreign corn continue prohibited, and grain from the British colonies of North America is also excluded.

Oils. The common oils are exceedingly heavy, and there appears very little demand for export; Greenland is dull at reduced prices. A cargo of Southern has been sold at about 201.-A cargo of Sperm and Head Matter sold so low as 57%.-Linseed oil is higher, and will be scarce, on account of the short supply of seed. Rape is without variation.

Spices.-East India Company's sale 12th inst. Saltpetre, 1,000 tons, company's, taxed at 26s. passed, no buyers; ditto 546 tons, private trade, sold 23s. a

258.; pepper, 401 bags private trade, sold 67d. a 7§d.; ditto white, 15 bags ditto, 143d, a 154.: cinnamon, 354 bales, first quality, taxed at 6s. sold at 6s. 1d. a 6s. 7d. -204 bales taken in; ditto 336 bales, second quality, taxed at 5s. sold at 58. Id. a 5s. 2d 541 bales taken in; cloves, 102 bags private trade, sold 3s. 5d. a 3s. 7d.; mace, 62 casks, first quality, taxed at 5s. sold 5s. Id. 138 casks taken in; nutmegs, 39 casks ungarbled, taxed at 3s. 6d. sold 38. 7d. 461 casks taken in; ditto private trade, 3s. 7d. a 4s. 1d.; cassia lignea, 61. 10s. a 8l. 1s.; cassia buds, 167. a 177. 10s.; ginger, 8s. 6d. a 10s. 6d. ; sago, 28s. a 31s.; oil of cinnamon, 5d. a 6d.

The first quality cinnamon is scarce; the stock of cinnamon in the warehouses is estimated at 710,000 lbs. Cloves at 105,000 bs.; stock of mace 179,000 lbs.; nutmegs 935,000 lbs.

FOREIGN COMMERCE. Riga, 19th Oct.-Flax was to be had on rather lower terms, Marienburg crown at 43 r.; ditto cut, 384; Thiesenhausen and Druiania Rack itzer white, 44 r.; Badstub cut, 37 to 37 r.; Risten Threeband at 28 r.-Hemp more in demand, and our stock inconsiderable; prices, Ukraine clean, 102 r.; Outshot, 85r.; Pass, 75 r.; Polish clean, 112 to 115 r.; Outshot, 88 to 90 r.; Pass 78 to 80r.-Hemp Oil, not to be had under 100 r.-Potashes, almost entirely cleared off; the last price paid for good Polish was 108r.-Tallow, white crown, 143 r. offered; held at 145 r.; yellow crown last sold at 142r.; for Soapboilers 130 r. are asked.-Corn, nothing doing, and the following prices are therefore nominal. Courland wheat, 100 to 120 r.; Rye, (of 115 to 116 lbs.) 60 r. ; Barley (of 100 lbs.) 50r.; Russian Oats (of 74 to 76 lbs.) 48 to 50r.

There is a total stagnation in colonial produce of every description. The prices of Salt are rather firmer, 52 r. are paid for St. Ubes.

26th Oct. No change has taken place in the state of our market, only that sowing Linseed has risen considerably; and we have not even a good choice, because the greater part of the seed brought from the interior is for crushing, and the quantity of sowing Linseed hitherto brought being beyond all expectation small, and also of indifferent quality; 10 to 10 r. have already been paid, and even at this price there are more buyers than sellers.

Archangel, 28th Sept.-Hitherto 151 ships have cleared out from this port; some others are expected, but if they do not soon arrive, they will hardly be dispatched this year.

In comparison with former years, we have done but very little this season, and what has tended still more to diminish our sales was, the almost entire want of

ships seeking freights, from which not only many orders received during the summer remained unexecuted, but even some goods which had been already purchased have been left here. The little business that our Russians have done, and the great pecuniary embarrassment which many have in consequence experienced, has gradually depressed the prices of most of our produce. Foreign goods have presented a still more unfavourable result, and the greater part will probably remain in the warehouses till next year; as for many articles not even an offer is to be obtained. Among the colonial goods imported are 2000 chests of Havannah and 1000 chests of Brazil sugars; 200 hhds. of refined; also 402 pipes, 100 hhds. 45 casks and 3,400 bottles of various wines.

Nothing certain can be said at present respecting our contract prices for next year; probably, they will be very reasonable, for most of our articles, at the beginning, and it it may therefore be advisable to send orders sooner than usual. We cannot yet say what goods we have over; the chief articles are estimated as follows. Tallow, about 20,000 poods; Linseed, 50,000 chetwerts; Wheat about 85,000 chetwerts; Tar, about 20,000 barrels; Pitch, about 8,000 barrels.

Stockholm, 30th Oct.-It seems that the Corn sent by the directors of the Royal Magazines to the Mediterranean, promises to be attended with loss instead of the profit that was expected. Mr. Askelof writes from Florence, that he intends to warehouse the Corn. According to the accounts of the Directors of the Royal Magazines, they lost 31,500 dollars, Swedish Banco, on 18,415 tons of Oats exported last year to England.

Copenhagen, 3d Nov.-The last supply of Indigo received this year, consisting of 16 chests of middling and fine violet, have been sold in public auction at high prices, viz. 7 marks 14 shillings to 8 marks 15 shillings banco.

Hamburgh, 10th Nov.- Cotton, demand moderate and prices unchanged.— Coffee. The demand being still inconsiderable it is difficult for the prices to keep up, and some parcels, especially of inferior descriptions, have already been sold at a reduction.-Dyeing woods. Blue and yellow more in demand, and the former rising in price.-Indigo continues to be in great request, and the advanced prices are willingingly paid.-Spices, no demand except for pepper.-Tea, prices low and demand trifling.-Sugar. But little has been doing in our refined this week, and the prices of the inferior descriptions have in consequence given way a little. Large parcels of Hambro treacle have been purchased for expor tation to Prussia, which has caused a sudden and considerable rise in the price. Raw sugars are very dull, and very little
