There has been a moderate consumptive demand for Flour during the week, at former rates ; other articles slow of sale without material variation in value. ___ _ At Liverpool yesterday, American Flour was offered, in partial instances, at a slight reduction, but on the whole the market maintained a firm aspect. At Wakefield, a good business was done in Wheat, at an ad vance of 2s. per quarter. The falling off of supply from the eastern districts to that market is most remarkable, and the same observation is ap plicable to this place ' as regards Flour. A considerable ad vance has taken place during the week at several of the lead ing agricultural markets. At our Exchange to-day, the trade exhibits increasing firm ness, without, however, much activity of demand. Many samples of Wheat and Flour are withdrawn from sale, and au advance of Is. per sack on Fresh flour is generally required, but without its being so far established as to warrant a change in our quotations.

SALFORD CATTLE MARKET, APRIL 7. There was a smaller show of Stock to-day than has bee n f or many months. Good Beef readily commanded £1 to 2 per head over 6d. per lb. ; and prime Mutton fully id. per lb. dearer. LEEDS CORN MARKET, APRIL 6. We are very shortly supplied with ,rain to-day. Wheat sold at Is. to 2s. per quarter advance, and met a steady consumptive demand. Barley -2s. per quarter cheaper. Oats and Beans fully as dear. BIRMINGHAM CORN MARKET, APRIL 7. Darin?: the present week no alteration has taken place in the price of Wheat, and few sales are reported. Malting Barley more in request, at former rates. Beans and Oats maintained their value. WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET, APRIL 9. The supply of Wheatis again very small, and insufficient to meet the demand, which is rather large, so that we have a - ready sale for this article at 2s. to 3s. advance. Barley is in fair re quest and brings full prices. Oats and Shelling are dull sale at last week's rates. Beans and other articles remain as last stated. HULL CORN MARKET, APRIL 1. At this day's market the supply of Wheat has again been to a fair extent; the farmers asked higher rates, which in some few cases were paid. In Foreigr., little or nothing doing, and the quantity on sale exceedingly limited. Barley may be con sidered firmer, being in short supply. Oats and other Spring Corn continue very dull. DUBLIN CATTLE MARKET, APRIL 8, Our market was small, and prices high,---Beef, 565. to 665. per cwt. ; Mutton, 7th to Bd., off sink ; Veal, 8d ; Lambs, 245. to 265. each. The scarcity of good cattle seems to be felt more in Dublin than in Liverpool at this period; prices are cheaper. We observe large shipments of foreign cattle, which, no doubt, will tell against extravascant prices. DUBLIN CORN MARKET, APRIL 9. There was rather an improved feelimin'our Corn market to day, and more disposition to do business at the currency of Tuesday last ; Indian Corn met a very brisk demand, and was fully 4s. dearer, the best qualities being taken freely at 595. to 60s. ; white Wheat, 458. to 495. ; millers' red Wheat, 435. to 475. Barley, 255. to 295. ; Oats, 18s. to 225. 6d.; Oatmeal, 245. to 255. ; second Flour, 255. to 265. LIVERPOOL COLONIAL MARKET, APRIL 8. Sugar.—The market is heavy, and the sales of B. P. are barely 400 Wads., together with 3500 bagsßengal and 200 mats Mauritius, at a decline of 6d. to Is. per cwt.—Foreign.—The sales are confined to 140 casks Porto Rico, 60 brls.

The sales of Rum are very trifling, consisting of 70 puns. De merara 10 to 14 per cent. 0. P., at 3s. Id., and strong at ss. per gallon. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, APkIL 9. In the earlier part of the week American descriptions were offered very sparingly, and an.advance of fully -&d. per lb. was generally established, but during the last few days holders have brought forward their stocks more freely, nevertheless the ad vance is maintained; other kinds remain without material al teration. Speculators have taken 5000 American, and export ers 1070 American, SO Pernambuco, and 50 Surat. 400 Masta don Sea Island are declared for auction on Friday next. ACCOUNT OF SALES AND IMPORTS OF COTTON, For the week ending Bth April, 1847- LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, APRIL 6. Except about 2000 quarters of Oats, we have very little Grain fresh in from Ireland, and beyond a fair quantity of Wheat and. Malt coastwise, the arrivals thence since this day week are tri vial ; whilst those from Europe and America together, furnish a good supply of Wheat, Barley, and Indian Corn, but of Flour 8348 barrels only. Having a numerous attendance of home and country millers at our Corn Exchange to-day, English and Foreign Wheats were in lively request principally for the inland counties and Ireland; prime samples, however, were in a few cases offered somewhat below our last quotations, which, for the general runs, were fully maintained, the trade on the whole closing with a firm aspect.—Sack Flour, being without inquiry, was nominal in value : American on the contrary, continued to move freely to millers and consumers, Western brands corn mantling Gcl. per barrel over the currency of this day week. Barley and Malt, being very unsaleable, declined 2s. per qr. furthertu lower.—Oats, e r. reduction— () a of I d q 4 umebn eholderstaken a s t u h b e um n i t o i r n e g fr t e o e y a — Beans were also d u ll at a similar depression, and Pease the c . per on s l e than of late.—Oatmeal remained in slow request at former prices : _ With a continued active demand for Ireland, the sales of In dian Corn this morning have been very considerable, at a fur ther advance Upon that above stated, thereby placing our quo tations Is. to 4s. per 4801 b. over the rates of this day week; Indian Meal at the same time selling ready at 265. per barrel.

Barley, Malt, and Beans, still appeared to attract very little no tice, these articles, as well as Pease, merely sustaining the rates of Tuesday.—Oats and Oatmeal, the consumption of each having been for some. time past much more limited than in former seasons, were the turn cheaper again to-day. Indian Corn, upon a fair demand for Ireland, nearly main- Mined our lastquotations. LIVERPOOL SHARE LIST. SHARES. Saturday's Prices.

MANCIIESTER.—In few instances can any but a trifling* ad vance be established upon the recently current low prices of goods and yarn, notwithstanding the late advance in the cotton market. Prices are tolerably firm ; firmer, undoubtedly, than they would have been but for the advance alluded to. There - has been, however, very little business doing since Tuesday, partly from producers being under the necessity of asking slightly increased rates, and also from the obvious effect of the two recent Bank measures to curtail mercantile operations and induce the exercise of extreme caution in forming new engage ments of every description. There are fair orders in the hands of buyers, and, should no material advance in prices take place, a moderate extent of business must ere long be trans acted. The chief demand at present seems to be for medium qualities of shirtingS, of thieh there were but light stocks in the market, and for other goods suitable' for the American and eastern markets. The present state of matters will have a di rect tendency to increase short-time working and thereby keep down production to a level with the present diminished demand, and thus prevent any undue enhancement of the price of the raw material. which. under existing circumstances, wo u ld on ly • add to the difficulties in which spinners and manufacturers are placed. The re-action in the food markets, both in England and the continent, we are glad to say, still continues.—Ex amiizer. LERDS.—considering the occurrence of Easter holidays, the business done this week has been to a fair amount. There has been some pretty large deliveries of goods direct from the ma nufacturers, but chiefly of low qualities. Fine and middling cloths continue dull; prices are steady. The foreign houses are getting busier, anti the business to the United States is pretty generally expected to be good for some time. BRADFORD.—WooI : The spinners are doing a little more in buying, but on the whole, we cannot record anything approach ing to activity. Yarns : There continues to be an improve ment in the demand for Yarns, and for shipping, large con tracts have been entered into, but we regret to hear that no general advance can yet be established. Pieces : There is a tolerable fair demand for general dress goods. Moreens are dull; the stocks on hand are lower than ',Until at this season, and many manufacturers are working to order, which augurs well for an improvement for the autumn. HUDDERSFIELD.—The market this week has been but a moderate one, as to the amount of business done, but a fair amount of sales have been made at the warehouses, and there is no alteration in prices. ROC H DALE.—The demand for all sorts of flannels has been limited, and in some few instances manufacturers are obliged to take lower prices for some sorts, but this was by no means general. The wool market was flat, but prices firm. PACKET LIST, GENERAL POST-OFFICE, APRIL 12. Mails desp'dLast Packet Next Packet Destination. frornLonclon sailed. due.

It must be an unpleasant reflection to an inhabitant of Birkenhead that, with all the enterprise which has been bestowed upon the improvement of the locality, •of which the proceedings of last week. afforded signal proof, little indeed has been .effected to render it a healthy place of residence for its rapidly increasing population. A fatal influence seems to have been at work to counteract every effort of the authorities to do their work effectually, and to overcome the undoubted disadvantages of soil and po sition, under which Birkenhead labours. Whilst the Commissioners have been laying out spa— cious streets and squares, forming extensive sewers, pro viding parks for the re crea ti on o f th e pu bli c , an d ma ki ng provision for the proper surface cleansing of the entire town, the jerry-builder and the cottage-owner have been rearing the sources of future fever and expenditure of money, health, and life itself. The present condition of the locality, and the means to be adopted for the removal of existing evils are ably pointed out in a work recently published by J. Hunter Robertson, Esq., M.D., of Birkenhead,* from which we shall take the liberty of collating some important statisti cal facts and remarks. The first circumstance which strikes us, in glancing over Dr. Robertson's tables, is the rapid rate at which mortality has been increasing in Birkenhead, during the last six years, or within that period in which it has sus tained its principal increase of population. In 1841 Birkenhead contained a total number of inhabitants of 8227 ; and the average motality was 1 in 45 ; Liverpool in the same year, with a population of 223,054 persons, had an average mortality of lin 281. In 1845 the popu lation in. Birkenhead was 14,900 and the mortality h a d increased lin 361. The mortality in Liverpool in thd same year had fallen to lin 34. In 1846 the population of Birkenhead had increased 18,210 souls ; andpari passu with such increase the average mortality had risen to lin 281. The average mortality of Liverpool in the same year was lin 26k. The increase in the latter case may, in part, be attributed to the great influx of Irish poor, and the suffering prevalent amongst our own unem ployed working classes. The mortality by fever in Birkenhead appears to exceed that of any other town, as is shown by the following com parative statement of the deaths in six of our principal towns, to which Dr. Robertson has added those of Bir kenhead and Tranmere. In Birmingham, the proportion of fever deaths to population annually is 1 in 917 ; Leeds, parliamentary borough, 1 in 849 ; metropolis, 1 in 690 ; Manchester, 1 in 498 ; Liverpool and West Derby, 1 in 488; Liverpool parish, 1 in 407 ; Birkenhead,l in 313 1 , and Tranmere, lin 744 k. The deaths from consumption Dr. Robertson finds are in Birkenhead below the number of all the other towns ; but adding the mortality from' puemonia and bronchitis, which is very high, Birkenhead will stand about equal to our most unhealthy towns. The amount of infantile mortality, Dr. Robertson says with justice, forms the best test of the health of any loca lity, infants being more susceptible of atmospheric influ ence than others, besides being more constantly on the spot ; and in this item Birkenhead Possesses a startling preeminence. " Out of 614 deaths in 1846, 370 are chil dren under 5 years of age, or 60 per cent. ; in Tranmere, the deaths were 152, and the deaths under 5 years, 91, making 591 per cent. In Liverpool, as Dr. Duncan shows, the mortality of children under that tig: is only 524-5 per - cent. The other five towns are greatly under Liverpool;. Birkenhead, and Tranmere. Dr. Robertson concludes by stating that "infant mortality in Birkenhead is equal to, if not greater than that of any other town in England." We must briefly glance at the causes to which Dr. Robertson traces this unhealthy condition of the locality... The first of these, strange to say, is the want of drainage. Notwithstanding the fact that out of a total length of 29 • miles 110 yards of streets, 26 miles 860 yards of which are fully sewered, and the remaining 2 miles 1,010 yards in course of execution, little attention has been paid to house drainage. On this head Dr. Robertson asks, " What benefit is there in having a sewer running down the cen tre of a street, when in many of these streets not a single drain runs from the houses into the said sewer ? The filth is accumulated in and around the houses, and so it must remain, there not being a single outlet for its escape; but still all is considered right, merely because the sewer is there." The Commissioners, we learn, are taking measures to procure a clause to render it compulsory upon owners of property to make use of the sewers so liberally afforded them. At any rate, one of the provisions of the Health of Towns Bill, recently introduced by . Government, will reach this evil. To make house drain age effectual, however, the drains must be of the best construction, and the sewers themselves flushed with a powerful stream of water ; as during twelve hours of the twenty-four, viz., during three hours before and after high water, every tide, the outfalls of the sewers are covered. those e he h o y thlevhiei reN t •ils tie g l e a d r partake a itak e towns are affected ; and although we should gladly have found room f or many of o fthecliaracterof other uo the valuable details with which he has furnish ed us, _ od_i ou space warns us to conclude, which we do b y cor recommending his work to the serious attention the public. b Robinson, i.
