Donlan, Jan. 28.-Our Corn market still continues very
dull, but we have little alteration to make in OUT quotations
since this day te'nnight. Wheat was a slow sale, at loot
Friday's quotatioes, but Oats, and inferior Barley were 3d.
to Bd. per barrel lower. Indian Corn continues very
heavy, and to effect sales a reduction of prices should
have been submitted to. The following was the general
currency: Wheat, white, 275. to 311.; red, per 480Ibe.
23a. to 28s. Oats, per 1961 be.. 10s. to 12a. 3d. Barley,
per 2241b5. 13a. to 17.. Indian Corn, per qr., 4801b5.,•285.
to 331. Oatmeal per cwt , 12s. to 13s. Flour in sacks,
seconds, per cwt.,, 16s. to 175.; American, per barrel, 28s.
to 295.
BELFAST, Jan. 27.-Since our last report we have hail a
continuance of fine fro.ty weather, which will have the effect
of improving the condition of the grain in stack. The sup-
phies of farmers' produce this week are limited ; but, owing
to the dull acciunts from the English markets, the tendency
of prices is downwards, and, were supplies to increase mate•
rially, present rates could not be usaiutained, buyers not
being disposed to purchase more than they require for their
immediate want'. In Indian Corn little passing,
but prices not so firm to-doy. Rye Meal in
moderate demand at former prices. Indian Corn,
white, 8!. 10s. to 81. 150.; yellow, 8!.
to 81. Se. per
ton. Indian Corn Meal, white, 9L to 91. 10s.; yellow,
81. 10s. to 81. lds. per ton. American,l6s.Gd. per barrel. Rye-
meal, Russian, Bs. per cwt. Wheat, red, 10s. to
105. 9d. ; white, 10s. fad. to Ils. Flour Prices at Inver
Mille, superfine, 20s. ; bakers' lit, 18e.; 2nd, ICw. ; 3rd,
14s. 6d. ; 4th, 10.. ; bran, eis. 81. per cwt. ; American, 28s.
to 30e. per barrel. Oatmeal, lls. tolls. 9d. per cwt. Oats,
Bs. to 75. Barley, 6s. Gd. to 7s. 6d. Wheatenmeal, 13s.
to 14e.
Coug, Jan. 28.-Without any positive change of prices,
we observe this week the same dragging trade which charac-
terised the transactions of last week. A few arrivals of
foreign grain have taken piece, and, amongst others, one
with Indian Cor and Meal, direct from Boston, U.S. ; still
the importations are comparatively tame. The suppies of
home produce, however, are good. Notwithstanding the
dulness in the prepared market, the samples of Wheat ar-
riving are readily token off, at rates varying little from those
of last week. Prepaied Wheat is very dull, and in the few
transactions that have taken place, lower prices have had to
be submitted to. Barley sells freely at last week's prices,
the value of that of prime quality being well sup-
ported. One or two lots of store Barley, from the outports,
have changed hands at the currency of last week. In the
value of Oats we notice tittle variation. the difference how-
, ever being in favour of the buyer. Of prepared Oats some
shipments have been made during the week for the Channel,
the free-on-board price being about the same as last quoted,
namely, Its. 6d. to its. 9d. per barrel for blacks. The
trade in Flour continues dull, and the article meets a
slow consumptive sale at last week's priers. Stocks of
the article in the meantime accumulate, and thus have the
effect of depressing the market. A foie amount of business
has been done in Indian Corn at shout 81 per ton. Prime
Galata even has been sold as low as 81. 7s. 6a1., but the
dealers appear to prefer buying an inferior article at a lower
figure, although the price of the latter is altogether dispro-
portionate to thet of prime corn. Indian Cornmeal, Oat-
meal, and in fact all other descriptions of meal, met a slow
and restricted sale.

LIMERICK, Jan. 29.-The weather has been exceedingly
variable for the past week, fatty, frosty, and heavy snow
and rain. The supplies of grain have been, however, good,
but prices rather dintining. At our Wheat market to-day
the quantity offered was small; owina to the roughness of
the night, few buyers appeared, and the price receded about
Id. per stone. Oats yet come in treaty, but, from the dull
accounts of the markets at the other side, the price has de-
vaneed id. per et. Barley, if offered, would find ready buyers
at 4d. told. ptrstone advance. The demand for Indian Corn
has been good, but some parties press sales, and the price is
rather down. In Indian Meal little doing in town ; the
country millers appear to have the best demand. All coarse
breadstuff. in good consumption. Wheat, red, per stone,
I3d. to 15 ; white, 15d. to 16d. Oats. 9d. to 91d.
Barley, 11,1. to 12d. Indian Corn, per ton, 81. to 81. 15s. ;
Meal, 91. to 91. 103. ; 17s. per barrel. Flour, Irish, per
bag, 325.
Burio, Jan. 29.-A small supply. Owing to the great
fall of snow, the roads are impassable. Oats, 9.. Gd. to 103. per
bushel. Oatmeal, 1 Is. to Ils. 6d. per cwt. Indian Meal,
94. to 9.. 6d. Wheat, per barrel, 181. to 225. American
Flour, 325.
WATERFORD, Jan. 29.-We have had another week of
great dulness in our o,ra market, and all kinds of grails
have suffered a further decline since this day week. Sup-
plies, however, do not materially increase, and as our stocks
of Maize are at length reduced to a moderate compass, home
produce, at present prices, will probably attract the attention
of merchants. Wheat has declined Is. per barrel, Oats 91,
and Barley 3d. during the week. Indian Corn is the turn
cheater, as is ales Flour, Oats, and Indian Corn Meal.

millers', per 20 stone, 263. 6d. to 27e.; shipping, 2.3*. to

KIRKCALDY, Jan. 29.-The weather continues frosty, and
yesterday we had quite a storm of wind and snow. At our
country markets, this week, we have still to report small
supplies of Barley and Oats, for which there wen a good de -
mand, at fully last week's prices. Wheat was in increased
supply, wad prices mar be quoted ls. per qr. lower, but we
heard of few sales. Here, to-day, as had a large supply of
Wheat, which sold slowly at • reduction of a full shilling
per qr. ; of Barley and Oan the supply was small, in fact,
below the wants of consumers ; soles were quick, at fully
last week's rates. Wheat, 475. to 581. per qr. Barley,
I 26e. 6,1. to hls. Oats, 21s. to 265. 81. Oatmeal, per bag
I of 2801b5., 151.
