e added to those herebefore given. We will warn the reader here against supposing that our report of the markets has not been corrected merely, because there is an apparent sameness in the phases always and in the figures frequently. We apply to men of high standing, in whom we can place reliance, and feel no doubt that this report is entirely worthy of acceptance as true. We quote, as usual, the wholesale rather than the retail prices, and the buying rather than the selling figures: Bacon.--Hog round, when bought in large quantities 22 to 24 cents; Hams, which it is almost impossible to procure separately, are worth from 8 to 10 cents more by retail. butter.--26 cents by the quantity. coffee.--Rie scarce, and worth 40 cents.

Leather.--No Calfskin in market. It is difficult, too, to fix quotations for other kinds, the market being very variable.

Richmond markets, Sept. 16, 1861. Since our report of last Friday, there have been no very material changes in the markets. The reader will observe, however, that Common Whiskeys have advanced as we intimated. They would, and that Lime is in still better demand. The prices' too, of several articles sold by our country patrons, are added to those herebefore given.
