MARKETS.

CORN.
LIVERPOOL, JAN. 4.—To-day's market was well attended,
and millers having so long refrained from active purchases, and
being in general proportionately low in stock, have taken wheats
to a considerable extent, chiefly in the fresh descriptions of white
and red American, at prices Id to 2d per bushel higher than could
be made in retail for several days past, and in some cases rather
exceeding the rates quotable on this day week ; besides consump-
tive demand, a good deal of this grain has baen taken for holding
over, and the market closes quite firm at the improvement noted.
Flour, though in somewhat more demand, has met a slow sale on
the whole, and must be stated about Is per barrel lower on the
week. Indian corn appears very much neglected; the nominal
value of mixed American on the quay is 42s per 4801ba., but some
sales have been made rather under this figure. In all ,other
articles there was an exceedingly fiat trade this morning, and
oats and barley were rather lower. Oatmeal Is per load, and
beans Is 6d per quarter cheaper than last week.

-•
MANCHESTER, JAN. 3.—We had another dull market to-day.
English wheat, though in short supply, was Is. per quarter lower,
and foreign 2d. per bushel. Flour declined Is. per sack. A reduc-
tion of 3s. per quarter took place on new English beans, and is.
per quarter on foreign. In oats and oatmeal but little was done,
and prices were unchanged. Peas and barley were both rather
lower.
WAKEFIELD, JAN 4.—The arrivals of grain have been very
liberal. The wheat trade this morning was very dull; best new
qualities Is. to 2s. lower, and other new sorts unsaleable, while
old qualities were in demand and nearly maintained their prices.
Barley and beans were Is. per quarter, oats ls. 2d. per stone, and
shelling is. to 2s. per load cheaper.
PRESTON, JAN. 4.—At our Corn Exchange to-day, there was
only a small supply of English wheat, which was soon cleared by
needy buyers at nd per wiudle improvement. Rather more doing
in foreign. Flour dull. Beans commanded rather more money
than last Saturday. Oats still difficult to move, although offered
at a decline of about id per bushel, and oatmeal continues
neglected at a reduction of Is per load.
WISBECH, JAN. s.—To-day's market was only moderately
supplied with wheat, and the prices of last week were maintained.
Beans and peas dull sale, and is to 2s lower. Oats fully as dear.
NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, JAN. s.—At the market this
morning there was a moderate show of wheat from the growers,
and notwithstanding its moderate condition, sales were freely
effected at the extreme rates of this day se'nnight, whilst at the
same time there was more disposition to take off any cheap lots
offering. For good bright runs of new Norfolk red 83s was readily
accorded, extra being worth at least 85s. Old foreign was too
tenaciously held to induce the millers to operate. Flour sold more
regularly, and more freedom is certainly looked for in sales next
week. Rye was rather more enquired for. Malting barley of all
descriptions fully is. per qr. cheaper, Grinding without change,
Boiling peas is to 2s lower. In beans little change. Oats were
moderately supplied, fine dry corn being in fair request.
CORK, JAN. s.—The demand for flour is very dull, and prices
tend downwards. Wheats go off slowly at concessions to buyers.
Indian corn very plentiful, and a few sales made on speculation.
There is no demand for consumption.

DUBLIN, JAN. 4.—There was a very dull market at our Corn
Exchange to-day, the best qualities of everything moved off at
about the currencies of last market, but inferior descriptions,
especially of oats and barley, hung heavily on hand, though lower
rates would have been submitted to. Indian corn exceedingly
difficult of sale, even at a reduction of Is. per quarter.
