WEEELY MAKKET REPORT.
The market continues in the same inactive state previously reported for all descriptions of manufac tured gonds, British and foreign; saleable only by a bale or two at a time, it cannot be expected that stocks become in any meisure lessened, for notwith- standing the importations are on a limited scale, The retail shopkeepers they far exceed the sales. are abundantly supplied from lots placed at auction, Viewed in every respect the state of the import market is most gloomy.
The export branch of trade is more lively, owing available tonnage should other vessels speedily arrive the price of produce will become greater and offer better inducement to holders to speculate in importations. At present, however, the rates of staple articles, as Gambier and Pepper, are barels
remunerative to growers.
