COTTON.-The business in our cotton market was rather limited last week, no more than 950 bales having been sold, all East India, in bond, viz.-350 Madras 63d. good fair, 7d. for good; 200 Surats 6d. middling fair, to 7d. a 7 d. good; 400 Bengals 61d. fair, 63. a 6d. good fair, and 63d. good.

SUGAR. The demand for raw sugar last week was rather checked by the importers demanding higher prices; nevertheless a good proportion of business was done, and an advance of 18. obtained on the brown and middling qualities. The market was rather bare of good working qualities, owing to

the merchants keeping back their sugars, in anticipation of higher prices.

The sugar market this afternoon continues firm; there are considerable sales, but there is no alteration in the prices.

In refined sugars there is more doing; large lumps have been in request for the Hamburgh market, and an advance of Is. has been obtained; the Mediterranean houses have likewise been doing considerable business in crusted sugars at improved prices; strong ordinary large lumps 788. good crushing ditto 80s.; the grocers are also strong buyers of fine goods; the market, in fact, is by no means fully supplied with goods of any description.

Foreign sugars are in better request, and prices 18 a 2s. higher have been obtained by public sale.
