YORK, Feb. 26.-We have a larger supply of Wheat at
this day's market than for several months put. Wheat
has met a fair demand at about last week's prices. Barley
dull sale at late prices. Oats, steady. In other articles no
alteration.
Dentin, Feb. 7.5.-The supplies to our market this week
have been small. especially of Wheat, and we have to notice
an improved valuemost articl. e advane our
quotations on the week '2.e. on Wheaet,s and c 6d. per barrel
each on Oats and Barley. Oatmeal and Flour also met an
improved demand, at somewhat enhanced rates; and Indian
Corn is held fur rather more money. The following was the
general currency:-Wheat, red, 245. to 28..; white, 275.
to 31M., per 280 lbs.; Oats, 91. 6d. to Ils. 61 per 196 lbs.
Barley. 14s. so 17s. per '224 lbs. Oatmeal Its. to 12s. per
ewe. Flour in sacks, 153. to 161. per cwt. for seconds.
Indian Corn, 26.. to 325. per quarter of 480 lbs.
BELFAST, Feb. 21.-We have bad moderate supplies this
week from the country, but quite sufficient for the demand,
which still continues very dull for every article. We have
no alteration to notice in Wheat, but Oats, B airy, and Oat-
meal are 3d. per cwt. lower. Indian Corn, without much in-
quiry, and may be quoted ss. per ton lower. The weather
continues very wet and unfavourable for spring labour.

Coax, Feb. 2.5.-The Wheat trade has exhibited some-
what more firmness, still there is not that animation that,
at this period of the year, we generally expect. In pre-
pared Wheat there is no business passing. Barley
is unchanged in value. Oats have rather given way;
at least the tendency is downward. In prepared Oats.
so perfectly lifelese is the trade that prices ere
altogether nominal. Although holders have not
altered their demands, we think that they would
readily accept lower rates. In the London market the arti-
cles appears to be a perfect drug. The Flour trade con.
tinues in the same state as last noted, and the business meet-
ing is of the most retail character. Indian Corn his again
receded in value, the extreme rate for prime Gslatz being
now only 71, 12s. Gd. per ton, while some arc selling as low
as 71. 10s. At these rates the trade is anything but brisk.
Indian Corn Meal meets a very languid inquiry. AU other
Meals are entirely neglected.
LIMERICK, Feb. 26.-The supplies of *rain for the week
have been very moderate, owing to the badness of the
weather. At our Wheat market today there was a good
supply, and prices were fully maintained. Oats come
slowly ;no change in value. The trade in Indian Corn and
Meal very dull, and to make sales a reduction would be
submitted to.
Steed, Feb. 26.-Oat', 81. Gd. to Be. 9d. per hi. Oat-
meal, 10.. per cwt. kilions-meal, Bs. 6.1. to 9.. per cwt.
Wheat, 193. to 21s. per bl. American Flour, 31s. to
31s. 6d. per M.
WATFRFORD, Feb. 26. - With diminished supplies of
Wheat during the week, prices hare advanced tram Gd. to
1.. per barrel; and Barley, being more inquired for than of
late, must be noted donee by 3.1. to 62. Receipts of Oats
have considerably increased, and prices of booth White and
Mick have declined fully 6d. per barrel. Indian Corn
attracted attention in the early part of the week, and
some large sales were then mule at the prices of
Saturday last; subsequently holders demanded an advance
of 3d. to 6d. per barrel, which, however, has not been rib-
tabled except is retail. At this morning's market, supplies
of grain from the country were small • but as buyers acted
with extreme caution, tne trade ruled dull without any
change in prices. The demand for Hein continues steady,
and all, except the best qualities, which are 6d. per sack
cheaper, maintain late rates. No change can be noted in
the value of Indian Meal.
KIRCALDT, Feb. 213.-.1 great quantity of' rain, and some
snow have fallen this week, m 'king the ginned very wet,
more so than it has been for many years at this season. At
our country markets this tem k we had only moderate
quantities of Wneat and Oetk I.lr,ring ; both sold slowly, at
about Is. per qr. reduction. Barley was in very short supply,
and last week's rates were readily paid for this article.
Here to day we had a fair supply of Wheat, the condition
of which was much affected by the weather; sales were
slow, at Is. to 2s. per qr under sot week's rates. Barley in
very sraell supply, and fully as dear. 0 its in large supply,
and fully Is. per qr. lower. Wheat. 42.. to 51s. per qr.
Berlev. 26.. to 31s. Oats, 20s. to 213. G.I. Oatmeal, per
of 280:b5., 31s. to 3.55.

WOOL.-lAvertroot.—ln foreign Wool a mode-
rate business hes born dme this week; but there hai been
less activity than fur some time past. A fair business has
beat done in Mince, but pries are hardly equal to former
rates. Scotch has been rather mere in requeu, but priers
are without change. Import. forth' week ending 26:

CATTLE, &c.—sm.TiIFIELD, Two 09 Clock
The supply of Beasts to day iamoderate ; trade is slow,
owing to an effort on the part of salesmen to advance
prices; this however it is difficult to accomplish, except in a
low instances. A choice Scot makes 4s. Bd. in some case:,
hut the average is about the same as on Mon-
day last. There are a very few more Sheep to-
day ; however, trade is dull, and, exc-pt for the very best
doser:p,ione, rather lower rates arc submitted to. We have
a very limited supply of Calves; trade is consequently brisk,
hut we cinnot observe much advance in price. Trade is
brisk for Pigs. at late prices. From Holland there are 161
Beasts, 270 Sheep, and 37 Calves. From Scotland 300
Ikasts, Ireland, 71, and about 2,000 from Norfolk and
Suffolk.
