Linseed 2s, and Linseed Cakes 2s 6d to 5s dearer. WAKEFIELD CORN EXCHANGE, DEC. 20. There is a good supply of Grain to this day's market, and all deFcriptions remain without material alteration in value. Wheat has meta lair sate at last week's rates. Fine samples of Barley are rather scarce, but a large quantity of foreign has been offering. No deviation to note in Oats, Beans and Shel -1 e sALkulth CATTLE MARKET, Dtc. 17. This being the week called by the butchers Christmas week, caused both a large show of pri r e stock as well as a large at tendance of buyers; all prime Beef early bought up, but inferior quite a drug. The best Mutton ready saie ; in prices a nominal change, but the very full rates of last week were readily ob tallied, say 5d to Sad per lb. for prime Beef and Mu ton. LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, DEC. 17. On reference to our import note beneath, it will be ob served that the arrivals of Grain and Oatmeal into this place continue to be small, and of Flour by no means large; but although the wind is still adverse, we had a . change of weather yesterday, and have a fine thaw this morning; the late severe frost is therefore disappearing, and, with a much milder temperature to-day, the millers and dealers. in anticipation of more ample supplies, seem disposed to remain rather inactive for the moment. Our market, in consequence, has ben rather languid to day for old Wheat of ail descriptions, and new has met only a moderate demand, at the rates of this day se'nnight Flour has been t :ken off rather less freely than at the rlcse of the week, but without any change in prices from Friday. Barley and Malt has been extremely dull at our last quo . ations ; and Beans and Pease are if anything the turn lower. Oats continuing extremely scarce, and no supplies fresh at hand, have in a few intances, by retail, realized an ad vance of Id. rer 451bs. OlitOatme v al having improved 6d. per 11., is quoted 255, o-day, with a moderate demand. In New no variation, CORN EXCHANGE, DECEMBEn 20 The duty on Nye is again raised. Foreign to I , s 6d and Col' vial to is Bel per qr., that on ell other produce remaining the tam- as last week. • Although during the last few dayake frost has been gradually disappearing, it returned again last night. but wit lunch less vigour than before: meanwhile the wind, still continuing in the east, a consltlerable number of vessels at sea anti in the ports of the channel. are unab e to proceed in this directio ~ and cur presen imports are so extremely small in cons quence as to be scarcely worth naming: the country markets however being well supplied by the k rowers, and our home tiu)ers, anticipating the next arrivals. and working close upon tie limited stocks held by them. Or-, trade between Tuesday and to-day has been unusually quiet, but with little variation from the general cur rency of our last Circular. Under the circumstances above stated, the few millers who attended our Corn-exchange to day cont nued to exhibit the same indifference as of late, and we have to reiterate a dull sale for Whet of all descriptions ; from the present invited arrivals, .however, holders evinced no des re to press business on lower terms, and our last qd,rations, therefoze, stand nominally an al ezed. Flour, notwastandieg, commanded a moderate de gree of attention, and gee era ly maintained the rates previously noted. Bat ley. for either malting or grinding. appeared to excite very little notice, and this Grain, as well as Malt, Beans, and Pease, hardly supported former prices Oats met some inquiry, and being still very scarce, were the turn dearer. Old Oatmeal of pi lme quality claiming a preference over new, was in fair demand, on rather higher terms, the latter merely sustaining its late value. PRICES OF GRAIN.

Our market continues nearly stationary for Wheat and Bar. e y b ut inferior Oats have in some cases brought an advance of b ou t 3d per barrel. LEEDS CORN MARKET. DEC. 17. We had fair supplies of grain this week. but the charge in the weather caused also a change in the condition 05 inferior Wheat; cuts: d a heavy market for all but the very best runs, and for such prices rather higher. Only fine Barley brought pr. vious rates. other qualities quite neglected. In Beans. Oats, and shelling, not much doing, and pd. es unvaried from last week. BIRMINGHAM CORN MARKET. DEC. 18. raring the present week, the frost having disappeared, th inquiry for Wheat has been less active, but pric s were main mined. Malting Barley also sold on former terms; in grinding litt:c passing. Oats realised the currency of last market day. English Beaus more pleatiful, and rather cheaper. MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, DEC 21. A continuance of easterly wind prevents arrivals from Ireland, and considerably diminishes those to 'Wakefield. Buyers of every article, however, seem content to work up the stocks they have on hand, and the Lusiness of the week has been of iimited character, without ate ation in prices. To-day but litt eis dove in Wheat or Flour. and we do not vary the rates of our last. The stock of Oats and Oatmeal are reduced to a very low compass, and lull prices are obtained in the few s made; but 8,, determined are buyers to confine their purchases to the supply of their most pressing wants, that what is offering, little as it is, is sufficient; and any advance that is obtained is so partial, as not to warrant any change in our quotations. Fine Malt firm at the rates of this day week : and the same remark applies to Beans. Bran and Secondary Feeding Stuffs are saleable at full prices LONDON CORN MARKET, Dsc. 16. A change has taken place in the weather ; the th w com menced yesterday n.orning, and there is no longer any fear about the stoppage of the river, and we expect the inland navi. gation will speedily be re-openec. At this day's market we had only a moderate snow of English wheat; the nest runs were in good request, and realized some slight improvement, and the trade ruled firm for other sorts at former prices. Fine free fo reign is getting in a small compass, and holders generally de mand enhanted rates. Chevalier malting barley was the turn dearer. ami other sorts a more free sale at our previous currency. M.lt unaltered in value. Beans and Pease rather in favour of b yers. We have had a very short supply of Oa - during the past week, and only two ves'els got up in aduition this morning. 1 rum peat scarcity the full advance of fully 6d. per qr. has teen realised, but the sale is contracted, and the trausaztiwa only limit l / 4 d.

The arrivals this week of all descriptions of Grain are small and consist of British and 1r713b, there t eine no arrivals what ever of Foreign, owing to the present tate of the wind, and to the Baltic and cthur port. being Mucked up with i e.

The imports for the United King. dote since Monday last have amounted to 180 Oxen and Cows, and 200 Sheep in for the most part good condition.

MANCITESTEL—The state of our market a little before Christ. mas is always dill and inanimate, and the past week forms no contradiction to this rule. It would, therefore, be trifling will our readers to deal in description of ideal balk or enumerate tra. sections that had never occurred : nevertheless, that, flat as things have been, the week's business is of a heaver character than the corresponding week in last )ear. Manchester Acker. tiser. of Saturday. Leans.—Though there has been no great extent of business doing in the cloth halls of late, there has been no accumulation of stocks in the halls; those manufacturers who have not been engaged in making to order have wisely limited their produc tions , and, as a necessary consequence, the prices of the cuths offered for sale continue firm. The chief purchases now made are for assortment; and no speculative purchases are expected till the turn of the year. FIUDDERSFIELD MARKET.—The attendance of merchants here on Tuesday was considerable. and their dealings were of a cha racter to affor t good promise of an early and active spring trade. Th.. trade at this season is usually very dull, especially in fancy cloths; but on Tuesday every, hing was purchased that could he pat t.ed with ni terms is shade more favourable than at late markets. The w:)ol market was firm. BRADFORD MARKET.—Thera was a good attendance of buyers here on Thursday, who bought freely the heavier kinds of winter goods, late prices being fully sustaine ', as the stock in the market was not tai ge. In other descriptions of mann fac 1,700ds there was a better demand, but satisfactory prices were not in all cases realsed. The yar market was active ; and, as stocks were low, prices were firm. The wool market was firm, and iwing to the prices est ed by the staplers, the spinners bought cautious y, and only to meet the r immediate wants. FIALLrAx NlAtt K KT.—There was a R oad attendance of buy ers for the"Weason, and a fair business was done in pieces at late rates: The yarn trade was also active ; ki d the wood market was brisk, and as regards prices very firm, both for combing wools, shorts, and ;toils. ROCIIDALZ FLANNKL MA Rlg7.—Thete has been an improved demand for goods to day, and considerably more have been sold ht former p ices. The dens od for wool is also increasing, and prices slow lyon the advance.

It was a universal benefit whi h had been c , nstinanited by Sir Henry, and tin . ver , al7y. and will MI MitllitY, it was as km,wiedged. The treaty vitt.

Mr. James Baxley, junior. leaquer, chairman of the Manchester Chamber of Commerce, and empty-headed as chair men of that illustrious body have proved themselves of late years, managed, without breaking down, to mar the ,unanimous feeling which actuated the remaining portion of the assembly, and to discourse learnedly of ex ports and imports, cotton crops and calico. We anticipated that the same (! ndurn would character ize the deportment of the member:4 .-f the league at the dinner to Sir Henry Pottit:ger in Manchetter: and we were not disappointed. The sane empty being was blown and exploded them. Mr. 11-zley again fired off his small volley of absu d ccchings, leivill the ptylte, who • read the foo'i.-h ravings of so insig.bificant a per sonage, to wonder whether a I..aguer and a chairman of the Chamber of C - onmerce of Manchester can even sleep without b , bbling it.
