Among export¬

no decrease, while the visible supply is still becoming smaller.
We have reported by telegraph to-night that the total stock

probably increase

rapidly, but until some way is seen of supplying the increase
in the foreign consumption aside from the American surplus
of this year, our market is likely to exhibit considerable
firmness, unless the wants of the planters should lead them
to force their cotton on the market more rapidly than it can
be taken.
A fall of a few cents would bring out very eager
buyers. Some discussion has arisen with regard to the effect
on
prices of the sales for future delivery. It is claimed that

100,000 hales have thus

hear of but few sales for future delivery ; one is reported of
500 bales middling, for November, at 24^-c.
To day, none

The total sales for immediate delivery this week
foot up 25,328 bales (including 2,187 bales to arrive), of which
8,688 hales were taken by spinners, 5,457 bales on speculation,
10,302 bales for export, and 881 bales in transit, and the fol¬

Evening, October 30, 1868.

striking feature in the markets the past week has been
which prices have generally been main¬
tained, in the face of the declining tendency in gold. Trans¬
actions have not been very large in any branch of h trade,
but from the fact just referred to it i9 apparent that there is
a
good feeling in regard to the future of prices and the con¬
dition of business affairs. Extracts, which are given below
from the Hong Kong Circular of Messrs. Olyphant & Co.,
will be found of interest, as to the opening of the tea market
at Shanghae for this country.
Imports of the week have been comparatively small. No
Tea of direct importation has come to hand, but we are now
in receipt each week of several thousand packages by steam¬
ers from
England. .Of Rio and other Coffee the receipts have
been below an average, and of Sugar and Molasses the small¬
est of any week since the season
opened. Full details of the
imports at the several ports for the week and since Jan. I
are given below under the respective heads.
The totals are

SUGAR.

The unsettled condition of civil affairs in Cuba continues to
operate
with force upon the market.
From this cause,

immediately after the
report, there was a sharp advance of £ cent upon the
grades taken by refiners, who were the active operators. The excite¬
ment, however, ended in a reaction which is but just passing away.
Sugars receded £ again, and close at about advance over last week’s
prices. Refined Sugars have, in the main, been steady, though cl: sing
quiet. Sales embrace 5,369 hhds of Cuba, 829 do Porto Rico, 334 do
St. Croix, 51 do Demarara, 115 do Martinique, also,
2,376 boxes and
6,045 bags.
The imports of the week are
very small.
At all the ports for the
week the receipts foot up 2,120 boxes,
against 2,519—and 1,067 hhds.,
against 4,686 last week, making the total receipts to date 424,846
boxes and 643,638 hhds., against 334,224 boxes and
432,9S9 hhds. to

what irregular market for the remainder of the season, as,
under the disturbed financial situation, there may be a
pressure to realize at still lower prices. .There is nothing in
the state of business at the present moment, however, to im¬
pair confidence ; the conservative feeling that has pre vailed
causino’merchants to cariy as light stocks as possible, pre¬
cluding any violent spasms in the trade. If, therefore, prices
should yield a point, it will be from the desire not to carry
over large stocks of goods, and the present stocks will be
readily absorbed by the home trade, without export demand.

Foreign Dress Goods have been but

slightly deaU in during the past
week, the demand being limited to a few special fabrics required for
immediate trade.
Black alpacas, mohairs and plaid poplins are in fair
request; but, on the whole, business has been dull, and prices have a
downward tendency.
At auction these goods have been freely offered,
but the bidding has been without spirit, and prices much lower than
those ruling at an earlier stage of the season.
Domestic Woolens have been quiet, and the bulk of the tra le of the
season, with the exception of the nearby demand, is pretty well over.
Overcoatings of Castor and Chinch.lia have been taken in small quanti¬
ties at about the same rates ; but on some styles of fancy cassimeres a
concession on prices ha9 been acceded to.
At auction the attendance
aas been fair, and on
really seasonable goods prices have been well
maintained, but poor makes and inferior designs have been sold at a
heavy loss.

ing week. In the meantime the most popular brands maintain their
quotatk> s, but on a few less prominent makes we note a slight con
cessio' rrates.
