Noawicm, Feb. 19.-Our market was but moderatcondely sup
plied with Whe it to-day from the growers, and in ition
somewhat iu last week. and prices were scarcely as good fur
theta:sr. Foreign offered pretty freely, and some amount
of business transacted at a tritling reduction from list week's
prices, merchants offering scantily, at lets prices, without
leading to Moines. Flour made a dull sale, at scarcely late
quotations. Barley. the turn dearer. Beater and Peas re-

Norriacinam, Feb. 19. -The Wheat trade in this market
Is quiet tiedey, with a limited amount of busbies only ; the
prices of last wcek are barely maintained, and tor low quali-
ties less money must be submitted to. The Barley market
is fully as well supplied with samples, but buyers are 51-
tremely shy, and have the turn in their favour. Oats and
Beans mil slowly, and not many brought to band. Wheat,
from 605. to 645. per 36 stones. Barley, 30s. to 345. Seed

SUNDERLAND, Feb. 19. -There was again seasonable
supply of grain of all kinds from the farmers at market to-
day; and the arrivals during the week, coastwise, have been
rather large, consisting of 550 qrs. of Wheat, 1150 qrs. of
Barley, and 620 auk' of Flour. The millers were not eager
bluer., and sales of Wheat were slowly made at a reduc
in price of ls. to 2s. per qr. on the rates of last ekes, Ma
. The
best Wheats bring 54e. to 565. ; good average qualitil
to 535. ; and inferior parcels, 46.. to fills. There are inquiries

Woacesren, Feb. 19.-Our market to-day was well sup.
plied with Wheat, which sold at fully the currency of this
day se'nnight. Barley unaltered in value. Oats. Is per
quarter lower, with a fair consumptive demand. Oa Beans
the turn was in favour of the buyer. We heard of no
transactions in Peas.
Yoga, Feb. 19.-There is a better feeling in the Wheat
trade here today, but we make no alteration in prices. A
fair supply and a steady sale. Barley dull sale, at Is. per
, We 41100
prices. In other articles no alteration.
DUBLIN, Feb. 18.-We have had but a small supply of
Wheat and Barley to our market since this day es'nnight,
which met a dull sale at a reduction of Is. to Is. 6d. on the
fernier, and 34. to 6d. per barrel on the latter. Oats, of
which we have had rather better supplies, barely maintained
last Friday's currency; and Indian corn may be quoted Is.
to 2s. per qr. reduction on the week. Flour and Oatmeal
were likewise Gd. per cwt. lower. The followimr was the
general currency : .-Wheat, for white, 265. to 28s. ; for red,
245. to gds. per 280115.. Oats, 9s. to 10a. 64. per 196 lbs.

per qr. of 4801bs. Oatmeal, 10v. to lls. per cot. Flour in
sacks, 15s. to 16s. per cwt. for seconds.
BELPAtI'r, Feb. 18.-We have a fair supply of grain from
the country, since our last report, and prices are mush the
same as last week., for every article in the trade, with the
exception of Indian Corn, which has further declined Is.

CORK, Feb. 18.-The arrivals of foreign grain have been
few. The receipts of that of home growth are good ; but
these, we suspect, are now likely to fall off, as the necessary
agricultural operations which the approach of miming calls
for will prevent the farmers from bringing forward their
stocks so freely. The trade in Wheat was dull in the early
part of the week, but we observe some slight tendency
to more firmness in the market during the past few days.
Barley is unchanged in value. A few parcels of store
barley have changed hands at late prices. Oats also remain
without change. The trade in flour is dull, at the reduction
of last week, and any sales that are being made are of the
most retail character. Indian corn sells very slowly, although
a further reduction of 2s. 651. per ton has taken place in the
article ; the extreme value now of prime Oalatx being only
71. 15s. ladian corn meal and other meals are in vary little
demand.
LISIERICIL, Feb. 19.-The weather for the week has been
fine, and spring tillage goes on extensively, a large quantity
of ground being prepared for potatoes. We had a fair show
of Wheat at market to-day ; the trade was lively, and at an
advance of id. per stone, the whole was soon eh ared off. Oats
do not come in so freely ; the farmers are busy at tilling, still
we note little change in price. Very. little Barley offering:
Indian Corn extremely dull, and pnces daily tailing
trade in Indian Corn appears wholly engrossed by the
country raiders, who have now plenty of water, which
enables them to compete successfully with the town steam-

WATERFORD, Feb. 19.-The trade during the week has
continued in the same inactive state as last noted, and with
but a retail demand prices of nearly all articles have had a
downward tendency. Supplies of Wheat were to a fair ex-
tent in the early part of the week ; but, during the last day
or two, they have rather diminished ; prices, however, have
declined fully Gd. per. brl. since Saturday but. Barley still
comes to hand sparingly; no change. anbe noted in itsvalue.
Supplies of Oats have been tolerably gad, and to effect sales
farmers have been compelled to submit to a reduction of 3d.
to ad. per barrel on the rates of this day ee'nnight. Our
arrivals of Indian Corn though small are more than adequate
to the demand; prices in consequence have given way fully

KIRKCALDY, Feb. 19.-We have still changeable weather,
and a good deal of rain and some mow has fallen during the
week, but to day it seems more settled. At our country
markets this week. we had very small 'applies of all kinds of
grain offering-the demand for which was very slack, and
.prices receded generally Gd. to Is. per qr. ; but transactions
'were limited, few farmers being willing to submit to the de-
cline. Here to-day we had rather a small supply of Wheat,
• eery "mall of Barley, butlarge of Oats. Wheat and Barley,
