Ginghams, of good patterns, are scarce, and sales in consequence very trifiing.-The sales of White Yarn, during the week, have been made at rather better rates, and a further improvement may be expected. For Coloured Yarn, particularly Orange, there has been more demand, at prices looking up. -The Woollen Market flat.-Several of your quotations for Metals are altered in consequence of transactions reported from the Bazaar: there has been some demand for Sheet Copper on account of Government for carriage, but the prices offered being under the Bazaar value, no sales we believe have been made.-Pr.

The Bugis prahus are now beginning to arrive, and the demand for Twist is improving,The importations of Woollens by the late arrivals have been very moderate, owing to which, higher prices than prevailed last season are demanded.
