NAVAL.

Ponsmovrn, MAY 24.—The Imperials., 50,
screw steam frigate, Capt. Watson, sailed this morning to
join Admiral Corry's squadron at Plymouth. They are to
proceed one alum/ to Lisbon.
PLYMOUTH, MAY 24.—The African mail steamer
Faith, left to-day with mail, for Toneriffe, the Coast of
Africa, Ice. She takes out 15 passengers and a full general
cargo.

COTTON.—Lwitaroox MAT 24.—The sales of cotton
to-day are estimated at 6,000 bales, of which 1,000 have been
taken on speculation, and include 100 Perna= and Marim-
ba= at 6d; 1,000 Egyptian, 61d. to 9d.; 400 Swats, 3d.
to 41d.; and 100 Bea Islands, 2s. to 3s. lid. The market
closes tamely but firmly. Compared with Friday's rates
prices of all kinds are unchanged, except 61d. to 61d. good
stapled Orleans, which are scares and dear. The imports
since Thursday amount to 80,000 bales, and the sales to
28,000 Woo.
MANCHISTIII4 MAT 24.—The accounts brought by the
steamer Canada from Boston, to the 11th inst., of a decline
equal to Ic. per lb. in the New York and New Orleans
markets, have produced no effect, either in Liverpool or on
the market for manufactures here, although it is now clear
that there must be a very large surplus stock of cotton of
the put yeu's crop.

WOOLLEN CLOTH.—Larne, Mi 24.—We bays no
change to report in the state of the cloth market to-day.
About an average Tuesday's business has been done. Mix-
ture cloths in various shades, and a few wool blacks, con-
stituted the principal demand.

WOOL.—HunroznorraLD, May 24.—From the lowness
of stooks on hand and the arrivals, the present sales being
but very scanty, we have bad very little doing in the Wool
trade.

MANUF,

May
.24.—Our

Cloth-hall has heenthialy at ended to-day by merchants,ano
their purchams have beet 'refined mostly to those descrip-
tion of goods adapted ter the present season in the home
trade. The present high pion of the raw material is ope-
rating very meth against the trade of this district, as on that
account, but few orders are given out for those goods
usually manufactured for shipping.

COWL—HoIz, May 24.—Arrivals now of all articles in-
crease, and are met by a good consumptive demand, and at
fair prices. To-day's market was well attended by farmers,
who brought a very short supply of Wheat, for which they
insisted on an advance of 2s. per qr., and fully Is. per 9r.
was generally paid. An improved demand for all descrip-
tions of foreign, especially fine fresh reds, which are compa-
ratively scares, and in some instances ;le. more money was
paid. Barley meets free sale at full rates. Oats are the
turn dearer, and Beans fetch Is. more money. Peas un-
altered in value. Linseed may be bought on terms in favour
of the buyer, but Cakes are in lively demand. Bapesead
firm, but Case are very dull. Bones in simmisnlivwg
and fully as dear. Imports from Mai 14 to 20:
6,872 ; Barley, 6,073 ; Oats, 99; Bmas, 294 ; Peas, 20;
Tares, 91; Linseed, 2,010 ; Oil takes, 116 tons ; Bones, 947.
- - -

Line, MAY 21.—We are fairly supplied with wheat,
and continue to experience a steady demand for all fresh
qualities, at last week's rates. Very little progress cane
made with chambered parcels. Barley as before. Beans
fetch full prime. Oats rather improve in value. Other
articles without alteration. Arrivals this week Wheat,
3,949; Oats, 103; Barley, 2; Beans, 316; Rapeseed, 321;
Linseed, 380.
LivsarooL, MAY 24.—We have this week a large
supply of foreign wheat, flour, and Indian Corn. Of
the wheat about 17,230 quarters are from ports in the Black
Sea and Mediterranean, 6,490 quarries from the United

States, and 4,186 gustier; front the Baltic. From the
United States there are also 16,850 quarters of Indian corn,
and 46,521 barrels of flour. From France, Spain, An.,
5,336 sacks flour, 611 quarters of wheat, 970 quarters of
Indian corn, and 580 quarters of beans. The trade through-
out the week has ruled firm, with an upward tendency in
the prices of spring corn and oatmeal. The weather con-
tinues dry, with easterly winds, and the want of rain is
beginning to be felt oa the pasture land', awl for spring-
sown gram end pulse. At our Corn Exchange this morn-
ing the trade was scarcely affected by_ the extent of the
arrivals from abroad the het week. We had a fair atten-
dance of buyers, and a moderate consumptive demand was
experienced for wheat, and similar prices were paid as
those current on Tuesday last. Prime brands of American
flour were not plentiful, end extreme prices required and
submitted to. Oats brought an advance of id. to ld. per
bushel. Oatmeal unchanged In value. Barley, beans,
and peas brought very full prices. There was a fair
demand for Indian corn, and late prices were pretty readily
realised.

-----
LYNN, May 24.—A moderate supply of Wheat to-day,
end prices about the same as last week. Wheat, old, 621 be.
to 631b5., 445. to 46a. per qr. to the growers; bat rune,
new, Nibs. to 691b5., 375. to 395.; inferior, Sibs. to 671b5.,
345. to 365. Beans, new, 325. to 361.
NEwcarrix, May 24.—The weather is as fine as possible.
but the wind still remains in the Cut, and the land presents
a very parched appearance. In some localities the Wheat
is being ploughed up and re-sown with turnips. At our
market this morning we had a very small show of Wheat
from the growers, but the arrivals continuing trifling and
millers being bare of stock, a free demand was experienced
for all descriptions, at prices that were not previously
obtainable, fine sold Wolgaat making 481. 6d. ; new Stral-
sund, red, the same money, whilst choice new Holstein, red,
commanded 451.6 d. to 465. 6d. per qr., accordingto quality.
For a parcel of two-yeurold Buss, red, 48s. was precured,
and the same figure was made of old Stralsund. Flour,
being relatively cheaper than Wheat, wut aken more freely,
and in larger quantities than has been the case of late,choice
households being placed without difficulty at 335. ex ware-
house, and in some instances at 6d. more. Rye met more
attention, fresh-thrashed Norfolk qualities being saleable
at 365. to 301., according to quantity. Barley met less at-
tention, whereas Oats, Beans, and Feu were more sought
after, ate slight improvement.

CATTLE.— &tramway, May 2d.—This day we had
a very small show of Cattle, the condition of which was
very good. The attendance of buyers was numerous ; con-
sequently the trade was brisk, and an early clearance was
effected. Notwithstanding the downward tendency of prices
at Smithfield market yesterday, the extreme rates of our
last market were fully sustained to-day. For the season of
the year we had an unusually large supply of Sheep, chiefly
out of the wool, and the condition very good. The conti-
nual high rata oakod by the potion canoes butchen to

purchase to the intent of their wants orly, and, there being
an excess in the supply, Sheep were a c-implete drug in the
market, and with a dull sale a reduction of Id. per lb. had
to be submitted to. There was rather a small supply of
Lambs, but equal to the demand, and there was no altera-
tion in the prices worthy of note. There was a less supply
of Calves than for some weeks past, but those on offer were
very file and in good condition trade active, and prices the
turn against the buyers. We bad a fair supply of store Pigs
is the market, which maintain their former value ; porkers
and bacon Pigs are not so much in request since the warm
weather has set ia, but in consequence of the general high
price of provi-ions, there has been no reduction. 'f he fol-
lowing are the present quotations :—Best ox Beef, 10s. to
103. 6d. per score; Heifers and middling breeds, 9s. to
10s. ; Best Down Mutton, out of the wool, 6131. to 6ld.
per lb.; long-woolled and inferior, Gd. to 61d. Lamb, 13,1.
per lb. Veal, Gd. toi'd. Pork, fresh and salt, 60. to Bd.
per lb., and 9s. 6d. to 10s. per score. Bacon, green, per
lb., Bd. to Sid. ; dry, 941. to 10d. ; ditto, per score, 93. tid.
to 101. 61 Store Pigs, 18s. to 30s. each. Mach Cows, with
calves, 91. 103. to 134

WELSH MAY FAIRS—ADVANCED RATES.
The May Fairs just held throughout the principality
have been remarkably .good, and at several of them the
prices realised have beeu far beyond the most sanguine ex-
pectations. They have been extremely well attended by
both buyers and sellers, and, generally speaking, so large an
amount of business has been transacted that little stock,
and in some instances none, has remained unsold at the close.
At Haverfordweat the demand was tar beyond the supply
and every description of stock was eagerly bought up. The
same remarks apply to the Pembroke May Fair, when
fattened Beasts and Sheep were rapidly sold, and with
milch Cows realised prices that have not been fetched for
years. Pigs sold well, and Calves have brought unheard of
rates, selling at as much as 255. per head, and being shipped
from Bristol tor the purpose. At Newport prices have been
25 per cent. higher than usual, and the same has been the
use throughout the country.
