Book Muslins are still realizing higher comparative prices than any other description of White Goods; and Prints and all coloured Cottons remain as when last noticed. Twist has improved slightly. The Metal market is not in a very settled state, but is not likely to fall. Madras, March 6, 1833.-Europe Goods have varied very little since our last.
