(PER STEAMER CANADA.) Correspondence of Lyford's Price Current. LIVERPOOL, Friday evening, Nov. 16, 1849. Money Market. ?Closing prices in London to- day were?Consols for Money, 93], for time, 93] to 931. Exchequer Bills 48 to 51s. premium. Bacon. ?A moderate business has been done for low inferior qualities. Holders of better sorts show an inclination to meet the purchasers. Middling qualities must be quoted as dull, and easier bought. Very little doing in Hams. Shoulders have moved more freely. Bark. ?No sales to report. Beef continues exceedingly dull, meeting only a retail enquiry, at a reduction on our former quota- tions. Holders arc very anxious to clear out their stocks. Cheese. ?A quiet business has been done at our quotations. The finer qualities are most enquired for. Corn , &>c. ?In the early part of the week our market showed some symptoms of activity. Wheat and Flour have slightly advanced, and Indian Corn has not been offered so freely. We had, at to-day's market, a limited attendance of buyers, and a steady retail business. Cotton. ?Imports this week, 5,687 bales; sales, 50,970; and present stock, 391,550 bales, against 460,900 at same period last year. The. demand for Cotton during the early part of the week was good, the Trade purchased to a fair extent, and, in antici- pation of intelligence from the United States, which came to hand on Tuesday, Speculators operated free- ly. Since then, however, the enquiry has fallen off, ; though the sales of the week are 50,970 bales. To- day's market sales are 6,000 bales, Speculators hav- ing taken 1,000, the market closing heavily. Lard. ?A further reduction of 6d. if cwt. has been submitted to by holders to make sales, which reached to about 70 tons. The demand has been very slow. Pork. ?For low qualities there has been a fair de- mand. Good middling qualities can be bought on easier terms, as holders are becoming anxious to close i sales. STITT, COUBROUGH k STITT. See Liverpool Prices Current on inside. LIVERPOOL, November 16, 1849. Cotton. ?The certainty of an extremely limited supply of Cotton from the United States for the next six weeks, together with an improved demand for Yarns and Goods in Manchester, having given fresh confidence to speculators, we have to report a large business in Cotton since the departure of the last steamer, with an advance in the official quotations of Jd. for American descriptions, but the trade hav- ing bought sparingly, a tone of quietness has prevad- ed our market throughout, and many are of opinion that the advance in the quotations is scarcely justi- fied by the actual business of to-day, prices closing in THE UNITED STATES.

An active demand this week for Coffee arid Sugar, and the public sales, which have been numerous and extensive, have gone off with briskness at improved rates. Cotton quiet, and about j-d. lower. Two India Mails have arrived?latest dates are, Bombay, 3rd Oct.; Calcutta, 20th Sept.; and Hong Kong, 30th Aug. The Commercial Advices from the Pre- sidencies are devoid of interest, owing to the Native Holidays. In China the demand for Tea had been ! very active, hut their import trade was dull. Coffee i we again notice an advance of 2s. if cwt., with a very animated demand, principally from exporters I and speculators, though the trade have purchased to >| a fair extent.

In Hamburg, Holland, and at Antwerp, speculators very active, and prices advanced rapidly. Java which brought 25A cts. in Holland in Sept., is now worth *2BA C.

There was an active demand on Wednesday, and full prices were paid; Thursday being a holiday, there was nothing done; yesterday, the Canada's favorable accounts having been received in the meantime by i telegraph, holders advanced their pretensions ] of a cent, but there was little done, purchasers coming forward reluctantly at this improvement. Flour and Meal? There has been a steady good demand for Flour the past two business days, both for home use and export, and some parcels have changed hands on speculation; the market closes firmly, es- pecially for the good and better grades, which have I oecn most in request.

day were?Consols for Money, 93], for time, 93] to

931. Exchequer Bills 48 to 51s. premium.Bacon. ?A moderate business has been done for

low inferior qualities. Holders of better sorts showan inclination to meet the purchasers. Middlingqualities must be quoted as dull, and easier bought.Very little doing in Hams. Shoulders have movedmore freely.

Bark. ?No sales to report.Beef continues exceedingly dull, meeting only a

retail enquiry, at a reduction on our former quota-tions. Holders arc very anxious to clear out theirstocks.

Cheese. ?A quiet business has been done at ourquotations. The finer qualities are most enquiredfor.

Corn , &>c.?In the early part of the week ourmarket showed some symptoms of activity. Wheatand Flour have slightly advanced, and Indian Cornhas not been offered so freely. We had, at to-day'smarket, a limited attendance of buyers, and a steadyretail business.

Cotton. ?Imports this week, 5,687 bales; sales,50,970; and present stock, 391,550 bales, against460,900 at same period last year. The. demand forCotton during the early part of the week was good,the Trade purchased to a fair extent, and, in antici-pation of intelligence from the United States, whichcame to hand on Tuesday, Speculators operated free-ly. Since then, however, the enquiry has fallen off, ;though the sales of the week are 50,970 bales. To-day's market sales are 6,000 bales, Speculators hav-ing taken 1,000, the market closing heavily.

Lard. ?A further reduction of 6d. if cwt. hasbeen submitted to by holders to make sales, whichreached to about 70 tons. The demand has been

very slow.Pork. ?For low qualities there has been a fair de-

mand. Good middling qualities can be bought oneasier terms, as holders are becoming anxious to close isales.

LIVERPOOL, November 16, 1849.Cotton. ?The certainty of an extremely limited

supply of Cotton from the United States for the next

six weeks, together with an improved demand forYarns and Goods in Manchester, having given freshconfidence to speculators, we have to report a largebusiness in Cotton since the departure of the laststeamer, with an advance in the official quotationsof Jd. for American descriptions, but the trade hav-ing bought sparingly, a tone of quietness has prevad-ed our market throughout, and many are of opinionthat the advance in the quotations is scarcely justi-fied by the actual business of to-day, prices closing in

Extract from Barings' Circular.LONDON, NOV. 12th, 1849.

An active demand this week for Coffee arid Sugar,and the public sales, which have been numerous andextensive, have gone off with briskness at improvedrates. Cotton quiet, and about j-d. lower. TwoIndia Mails have arrived?latest dates are, Bombay,3rd Oct.; Calcutta, 20th Sept.; and Hong Kong,30th Aug. The Commercial Advices from the Pre-sidencies are devoid of interest, owing to the NativeHolidays. In China the demand for Tea had been

! very active, hut their import trade was dull. Coffeei we again notice an advance of 2s. if cwt., with avery animated demand, principally from exporters

I and speculators, though the trade have purchased to

>| a fair extent. Public sales offered 810 casks, 1900'I hags Plantation, 360 hags Native Ceylon, 2300 Rio,

neighboring Continental ports little doing, in expec-i tat ion of the ensuing Dutch Sale, but there is an im-

proved leeling as regards the future, a revival in thedemand being confidently anticipated. At St. Peters-burg prices of white Havana range from lto. 28J fil29, for mid. to good strong.

LATER FROM BRAZIL.

Rio DE JANEIRO, 20th October, 1849.Since our advices of the 10th inst., business has

[ been rather limited. Transactions in imports arc' confined to actual wants, and in exports the high and

1 making no offers that can he accepted. Stock in' first hands is estimated at 13,000 brls., and in second

23,tMM) brls.; Coffee. ?The growing impression of a short crop,

1 with limited supplies, has enabled the dealers still to

' realize their own terms, notwithstanding the demandis almost entirely confined to the United States.?The dealers continue to replace their sales at pricesin advance of what exporters are willingto pay ; andthus confirm the honesty of their belief in a very

1 short crop. As high as 4||200 has been paid by them! for choice lota. We quote superiors 4||liM),ft 4(|*200;

There was an active demand on Wednesday, and fullprices were paid; Thursday being a holiday, therewas nothing done; yesterday, the Canada's favorableaccounts having been received in the meantime by itelegraph, holders advanced their pretensions ] of acent, but there was little done, purchasers comingforward reluctantly at this improvement.
