BBt.TOL, APRIL 16.
Sumtn.—Owing to the offices being closed for the
Easter recess, we have had but two market days here
since our last report, and the transactions are limited to
about 3,50 hhd.. and tierces West India, at fully former
rates. We are still without arrivals, and the stocks in first
hands are quite exhausted. Refined steady and rather
firmer.
Rex continues very dull.

COTTON.—Livntroot, Arm 16. The successive
advice' from the United States, together with the state-
ments of quantity already received at the ports, are gra-
dually leading the public mind to a higher figure, as to the
probable amount of the crop of cotton in that country. At
the beginning of the senses we were inclined to fix the ag-
gregate quantity at 2,700,000 bales. We should now look
with equal confidence for a crop of 2,800,000; and we may
add that some parties in America, whose opinions are eats-
tled to the greatest consideration, speak confidently of
2,900,000 bales, and some few go so tar as to repeat, with
increasing confidence, their first estimates of a near ap-
proach to three millions. This changing view, as the year
goes on, ot a most important subject, ts no doubt producing
Its fair and legitimate effect upon our market. The
holder!, confident in the large and increasing consump-
tion, founded upon the existing moderate scale of prices
and reduced stock, regard the large supply now at hand
without alarm, maintaining a firm and steady market for
all kinds at the full rates of last Fridays quotations. At
the same time, there can be no reasonable doubt that
the imports now coming in will, for the present at any
rate, with every fair demand, be placed on the market
for sale. Our quotations remain as before, the firm tone
of our market during the last two days having rather
strengthened the holder's position, but without bringing
about any quotable change in the scale of prices. 4,080
American, VO Surat, and 150 Egyptian are reported to
have been taken on speculation ; and 5,890 American and
700 Surat for export. Sales fur the week, 49,0.10 bales.

WOOL—LivaarooL, Arm'. 16.—There has been only
a limited business done this week, and the market con-
tinuer bare of stock. About 2,000 boles of East India
and other low kinds are now selling at auction ; prices are
without change.
Latin, Arun. 16.—There has been rather more in-
quiry for wool this week, and prices are firm at last week's
rates.

CORN.—Cututs rums, April 16.—There was a moderate
supply of Wheat at market to-day, which was firm at last
week's prices ; in some instances rather more money was
made; red, 395. to els. ; white, 4.15. to 475. Barley nomi-
nally unaltered. Beans fully supported prices obtained
last week.

LINCOLN, April 16.—We have been very indifferently
supplied with Wheat to-day, and the farmers wore asking a
little more money ; but scarcely any business was done,
millers preferring using up their stocks to buying at au
advance, however slight. Spring corn without alteration.
Wheat, red, 365. to 40a.; white, 435. to 455. Barley,
grinding, 265. to 275. ; malting, 275. to 295. Oats, 19s. to
21s.

WARIFIBLD, April 16.-Our arrivals of grain this week
are small. The Wheat trade shows more firmness, and, with
a more general deposition to purchase, there is a slight
amendment on the current rates of last week for all qualities,
and in many cases fine fresh sorts are fully Is. per qr.
higher. Barley is in limited demand, at barely previous
prices. Oats and Shelling as before. The same. remark

WATERFORD, April 15.-Supplies of grain both from
farmers and abroad have been trifling since Saturday. No
change can be reported in tho value of any article except
Indian Corn, for which there is a very lair demand, at an
improvement of 3d. per barrel.

CATTLE, &C.—DARLINGTON EASTER FAIR, April 12.
—At OUT Easter fair to-day, there was en abundant supply
of cattle, chiefly for grazing purposes, the supply of fat being
small ; there was also a small show of Sheep. At lint, high
prices wero asked, but the limited demand reused holders
to give way, and those which changed hewn were sold at
a rather low figure, the best Beef not bringing more than
Ss. 3d. per stone. The hone show appeared to be about an
average description.

EXIT.II, April 16.—The supply was large. Beef was
dearer than last week—from 7s. to Bs. per score. Barreuers
(etched from 4s. 6d. to 6s. per score. Cows and Calves were
from 81.8 s. to 131. Steers about the same as last week.
Sheep : Wethers, from 6d. to 6id. ; ewes, from 4id. to sd.
per lb. The supply of Pork MUMS was large, at prices
ranging from 6s. 6d. to 7s. per score.

liusitg, Aran. 16.—From the extreme heat of the
day, almost like that of midsummer, we had but a
languid market, and the demand by no means good. Doe
for ordinary kinds, in sink, 40s. to 42a.; prim, 445. to 465.,
per cwt.; mutton, to 6d. per lb., being 3s. to 4s. a bead
off last week's quotations • veal, 61d. to 7d. per lb. ; lambs,
14s. to 245. and 2.55. each. The pig market considerably
downwards, from the English markets being supplied;
prices, 345. to 375. and 384. per cwt.; the quality, however,
on sale were generally half-fat.

OL•soow, April 15.—There were In yesterday's market
776 osen, 1,043 Sheep, and 27 Lambs. The large supply of
cattle, combined with the unfavourable condition of the
weather for slaughtering, and the depressed state of the
dead market, caused sales to be very slowly effected, and
and a good many turned out unsold. Best ox Beef sold at
425. ; current, 40s. ; middling, 38e. ; and inferior from 325.
to 345. per ewt. Sheep sold at much the same rate as last
week, best Mutton being 61d. ; current, 6d.; and inferior,
4d. to 41d. per lb., with a few unsold. Lamb, 20s. to 275.
each.
