DUBLIN, Dee. 10.-Oar oopplies this week, especially of
Wheat, have been much lees than for some tone, and this
article fully sustained its previous value. All other *Mons
were, however, heavy, with a downward tendency ; and we
reduce our quotations W. per barrel for Oats, and 64. per
cwt. each for Flour and Oatmeal. Indian Corn, at Is. per
quarter reduction, found a somewhat improved demand.
The following was the amen! currency:-White Wheat,
28s. to 32e. ; eel, 295. to 295. per 2801 b. Oats, 11a. to 13s.
per 1961b5. Barley, 14e. to 17s. 64. per 2241b5. Indian

cwt. American, 291, to 30.. barrel.
BELTAeT, Dee. 10.-The market war well supplied with
all kinds of grain to-day, and farmers' Wheat is fair demand
at the prices quoted. In parteb, ex-ship or store, we have
seemly a transactiona posing. Flour unchanged its value.
Barley supports former rates. Outs and Oatmeal in fair
demand, at about last weak's prices. Indian Corn has again
‘‘eclined fully 6s. per ton, and the demand is limited. In-
dian Cora Meal sells at a similar reduction. Prices of car-
goes in parcels in store per ton Wheat, Irish, red, new

Coax, Dec. 10.-The arrivals of foreign grain here have
been very few, while Mow of home-grown are also moderate.
The receipts of the latter for the week are: Wheat, 2,617
barrels, at 164. to 28s per barrel ; B irley, 1,431 bele., at 10r.
to 151.; Oats, 5,006 brie., at 9s. to 1 Is. 10d. Owing to the
shortness of the supply, and a moderate local demand, the
value of Wheat has been pretty well supported. Barley
continues much as at the date of our last, with perhaps a
alight downward tendency. Oats remain without change in
value. The current free-on-board prices are 12a. to 12s. ed.
per barrel. The trade in Flour is dull, and prices remain
aomiaally the same as those of last week. Indian Corn also
continues in slow demand, prices still exhibiting a downward
tendency. We quote the current prices 81. to 81. 13.. per
ton. Indian Corn Meal is very little inquired for, while all
other descriptions of Meal are totally neglected.
NEWRY, Dec. 10.-We quote Wheat at about the same
prices as at last market, via., white,lo,. 64. to Its. per cwt. ;
and red, 10s. to 103. 6d. Barley without alteration in price,
very little being forward. Oats, 101 d. to 1014. per stone.
Flour still sells at ISo. per cwt. for first quality of Irish;
second, 16s. ; third, 14,.: and fourth, 12.. American, 30s.
to 31e. per barrel. Oatmeal, country, 12.. to 12a. 6d. per
cwt.; and machine-manufacture, 12s. 64. Indian Corn
Meal is 3d. lower, selling at 9s. per cwt. Barrels remain at
17e. to 17s. 6d. each.
WATIRFORD, Dec. 10.-The supply of Wheat has been
exceedingly small this week, and prices have therefore ad-
vanced about 6d. to 93. per barrel over those of the past
week. Oats and Barley are fair in *poly, and eapport the
rates last quoted. Indian Corn has declined fully le. per
barrel this week, with very little inquiry even at this reduc-
tion. Bakers' Flour continuo* to meet a dull demand* le.
per sack less then last quoted.
KICICALDT, Dec. 11.-At our country market' this week,
we continue to have very moderate supplies of Barley, which
sold readily at ed. per quarter advance; Wheat and Oata
were also in small supple; nevertheless, prima were rather in
favour of the buyer. Hre, to-day, we bad email supplies
of all kinds of grain. Wheat brought about the rates of this
day se'nnight, where the condition was good ; damp quali-
ties, however, were about 2s. per qr. lower ; Barley sold at a
full shilling per qr. advance; while Oats were from 6d. to
Is. per qr. lower. Wheat, new and old, 465. to 62e. per qr.
Barley, new. 275. to 335. Oats, new, 19s. to 21s. Oatmeal,
per bag of 2801b5., 335. to 35e.
ALTONI, Dec. 7.-The Wheat trade was not quite so
lively to-day, sad our prices must be quoted at Is. lower
linos lest poet. Holders showed, however, no inclination to
sell at the reductions, but preferred shipping their goods
direct to England. Fine, 6241*. Marks Wheat, fetched
to-day, 50s. 3d. f. o. b. ; while Walwen Wheat, of the game
weight, could be obtained at 49e. 9d. to 505.; middling
qualities of Mecklenburg, weighing 621b5., were mold
at 48s. 3d. Nothing doing free on board at the
outporte; 611*. Danish Wheat is held at 43e. 3d. f. o. b, in
ipnrig ; 621*. to 6211b5. Wismar and Holstein, 445. 9d. to
455. 6d.; 6241 be. to 631bs. Restock, 46e. f. o. b. in spring. Of
Danish Barley, a few cargoes, weighing 5311 n. to 54 el*. were
sold at 22.. to 221. 3d. f. o. b. Holders are on the whole,
however, very reluctant, and offers scarce. Inferior descrip-
tions of Oats, on the spot, are selling for France at former
prices. Danish has been sold at 16e. 6d. to Ile. 3d.
f. o. b. in spring. Peas dull, and 40e. on the spot. Danish,
for spring shipment, 33a. 64. to 345. 61. f. o. b. Tares, 40s.
on the spot; email Danish, 29e. 6d.
POTATOES.-Sotrnmkkg, WATERSIDE, Dec. 13.

The arrivals during the past week have been very limited
coastwise, but there has been a great many brought to Lon-
don by the different railways. The very best samples are
readily sold at our former quotations, but all seconiary go
off heavily. Present prises York Regents, 130 s. to

at a trifling decline, yet few kund purchasers; no
ra=aespected until after Christmas.
TAR,
Dec. 11.—Holders complain of business
WWII!, slack. A few Farnham. sold during the week
at lad week's prices ; for all other kinds little or nothing

WOOL.—AxpovEit, Dee. 11.—Thoee who hold
most still do so. or submit to a further fall in price. Trade
so dull, that but little could find purchasers.
LONDON.—The market continues to wear a very dull
appearacce, and bat little business has been done either in
foreign or colonial. Arrival' have been very light. English
is held firmly, and owing to the small quantity in farmers'
hands, full prices are demanded.
Lr.nns, Dec. 10.—We have still to report extreme flat.
nem in foreign Wool, very few transactians having been ef-
fected. Prices must be quoted merely nominal. For Eng-
II& there has been a rather a better feeling in the Wool
market this week, but the actual purchases of the spinners
and manufacturers hare been confined to a supply of their
Immediate wants.

LivegooL, Dec. 11.—We cannot report any improvement
in our demand for Wool. Staplers, u well u manufacturers,
only take for their immediate wants. In Scotch the demand
is not equal to the sopply, and nothing is doing in Alpaca.
Imports.—Foreign, 1,723 bales; previously, 66,448 bales.
Scotch, 44 bales ; prerionaly,

CATTLE, &C.-816/11171111.1), Tloe o'Clock.—
This is the annual great Inwitet day. The supply to it, both
enteasts and Sheep is the shortest we bare seen for many
rm. The general quality of the cattle is level, and very
useful for the butcher, although there are very few of extraor-
dinary character. Some few choice animals, show descrip-
tion of things :have made ss. 4d. to ss. 6d., but we cannot
who these prices as a general avenge for good Beasts. We
have about 441 from Holland, 120 from Scotland, 300 from
Lincolnshire, 2,300 from the Midland Counties, 200
Norfolk and Suffolk, 70 Susses, and 500 from the
West of England. It is supposed by the butchers that a con-
siderable number that usually come for this day's sale are
kept back for Friday and Monday next, this b 'seldietast
from Christmaeday ; consequent *sly bay' ; but
no doubt almost all will be sold. dhow el
Melly bad, and the number ;mentally smell; the west se,
however, being exceedingly mild, the demand is eery
limited; notwithstanding, good Mutton being scarce, it is
rather dearer. A few choice Downs made 6.. 6d., and 10111111
selling long wools very nearly 6s. We have 1,820 Sheep and
59 Calves from Holland. Good Calves are very scarce, and
sold dearer. Pigs are not plentiful ; the warm weather is
much against the sale of them. Trade is slow, at about the'
late prices.

LEICESTSR CHRISTMAS FAIL—At this fair the supply
of fat Cattle was not quite so large as usual, nor was the
general quality so good as we have been accustomed to wit-
ness. The few very prime fat Beasts offered for We found
buyers at from 6hd. to 7d. per lb., bntthoee of an inferior
description were disposed of at a cheaper rate. The number
of stores was rather large, but the business done was limited
at prices a shade lower. Prime Mutton realised from 6d. to
7d. per lb. There was an average supply of store Sheep,
but, owing to the high priors asks d, few changed hands. In
gorse there was a largo show, olthough few of a useful
character; these, however, commanded good prices. The
• • sale of the inferior description was a drug.
