CORN.—MARK-LANE.—The supply of English
Wheat, by land carriage samples from the near counties,
waslthis morning exceedingly short; notwithstanding which,
the rates of Monday last could not be exceeded for even the
fined qualities, whilst secondary and infeti,r samples were a
dull sale, at that day's rates. Foreign Wheat sold in rain at
about previousrates. Although our market was far fromlargely
supplied with Barley, the trade ruled dull, without alteration
in value. Both dilaters and consum..rs of Oats continue to
confine their purchases to retail quantities. The trade to-day

do. Best seed Beans-new and old, English and foreign-
sold at from 46e. to 48s. per qr.; inferior, tick, 445. Peas,
fine, white, sold at 455. per qr.; grey, 43e.; aid maple, 425.
AYLESBURY, March 4.-Wheat was firm at last week's

very superior samples. Wheat 4fis. to 60s. ; Beans, 365. to
505.; Barley, 31r. to 335.; Oats, 245. to 295.; Vetches,
625. to 645.
BATH, March 4.-There was a fair supply of Wheat,
which sold quite as high as this day ae'nnight. Of Barley
little was offering, and we may quote it Is higher. Beans,
Peas, and Oats met with a dull sale, at last week's prices.
BEDFORD, March 4.-The supply of Wheat was rather
limited, and prices firm in conaequenc3. Barley was not so
liberally brought forward, and the value well supported for
all descriptions. In Beans, Peas, and Oats but little business
doing at the previous currencies. Wheat made about from
295. to 325. 6d. Deans, 21s. to 32e. Peas, 275. 6d. to 325.
per load of 5 buaheL Barley, 295. to 335. Osta, 21s. to 28s.

BOSTON, March 4.—Farmers bold back their Wheat, in the
expectation of better prices; the little gold to-day was at
fully the prices of lut market day. Beans are neglected, and
Oats without demand.
CANTERBURY, March 4.—The supply of corn was only
moderate; the condition not good, and farmers asking more
money, bat little business was done. Prices generally about
the same as last week.
CsausLE, March 4.—We had an average supply of Wheat
at our market this morning, which sold at a slight advance
on last week's rates. Barley was in small supply ; no
mange la prises. Agood supply of Oats at our quo-it:one.
10s. to 10s. 3d. was paid fa: seed.

Coacenevan, March 4.-The weather still keeps the ear.
mere out el the fields supply at the same ileac twat,
in their stooks. The of Wheat is mill, and condi-
tion is scarcely improved. Priem are 'ratty uw,,u,iceg_
sari 47e. to 625. for reds, to the rower. Barley Is in mode-
rate supply ; the finer kinds bring the growers 30s. to 31s. ;
and the inferior wets, 265. to DU. per quarter. Beans in
gar gamily, and sell slowly, at 31a. for Masagans; and 325.
to 33e. for ticks.
Gaotteaersa, March 4.-Dtuing the week there has
bee an average supply of English Wheat on offer which
met • fair demand at last week's prices. Foreign' Wheat
wapporta our quotations. Malting and grinding Barley dull,
and each Is. per qr. cheaper. Oats are pressed for sale to
wholesale buyers, at a reduction of Is. per qr. Beans are
without alteration in value. At our market this day, we
hall a very firm fe-ling for English Wheat, which met a
ready sale at fully last week's prices, while fine foreign was
held for rather more money, which buyers seemed indisposed
to give. Oats: A steady demand for beet qualities. at lest
week's rates; inferior sorts quite neglected. Egyptian
Beans were Is. to 2s. per qr. dearer ; in English and Irish
nothing pining. Barley steady.
ourreseoari, Meech 4.-Wo have wain to report a very
dull trade in Wheat, which met a limited demand.
dill
conditioned samples were almoat unsaleable, and fur such
previous retie could not be realised.
HITCHIN, March 2.-We had a moderate supply of Wheat
at market, which caused the trade to be firm for the best
sort ; inferior gave way Is. from last market ; the same may
be said with Barley and other corn.
Ktheisrots, March 2.-Of Wheat, a few dry samples sold
at last week's prices. Barley sold at a trifling advance for
best; all others without alteration. Oats in fair demand.
Beans 2s. per qr. decline. Pets also sold lower-fully le.
Idatecnesrau, March 4.-Supplies have Bimini-hed in all
oar principal markets; and this, with the resumption of
duties of Gs. per quarter upon Wheat, 2s. 6d. upon all other
grain, and 3s. Bd. per barrel, or is. 3d. per sack on Flour,
induces more steadiness and less desire to sell. A fair busi-
ness has been done here during the week, at full prices for
every article. Our market to-day assumes a more cheerful
aspect; there is a fair sale for each article, at prices,
rather tending upwards, with the exception of Beans
and Malt. Any advance, however, which is obtained upon
last week's prices is not sufficiently general and decided to
warrant our altering the quotations of onr last. The following
are the current prices : Wheat, per bushel of 701 b..,
English, white, 7s. 9d. to Bs. 3d. ; red, 7e. 3d. to 7s. 94 Irish,
white, 7s. 3d. to 7s. 9d. ; red, Is. to 7s. 6d. Barley, per hush.

English, Scotch, and fine Irish, 2s. Ild.
41M
to 3s. lel. ; Irish
kiln-dried runs, •2s. 9d. to Is. 10d. Beans, per qr. of 60,
English, small, 393. to 40s. ; Tick, 38s. to 495. Peas, per
8 imperial bushel', white, boilers, 40e. to 425. Flour, per
sack of 2801 M., English and Irish, fine 375. to 395. ; super-
fine, 395. to 405.; extra, s. to 425. Oatmeal, per load of
2401b5., English and Irish,4l 25e. Gd. to 261. 6d.
MARLBOROUGH, March 4. - Wheat, first-rate heavy
and dry samples, from 56.. to 57.. per qr. Barley at • trifle
above the prices of last week. Oats sold freely at last we. k's
prices. Beans, Peas, and ltye were offered at a decline of
Is. to 21. per qr.
NEWCASTLE-ON-TYNE, March 4.-The weather has been
for the most part wet god tempestuous. Yesterday, how-
ever, a fevourable change occurred, which was succeededHeinbey
frost at night, and to-day is clear and dry, with
barometer. The trade during the present week hes been
of a dull and uninteresting character, end although lower
rates have not been accepted f .r any article, the busines hae
been purely a retail one. At tier market this mondiag we
had a good supply of Wheat from the growers, and the
arrivals coastwise are also to a Ede extent nevertheless the
trade assumed somewhat more firmnees, fresh thrashed
samples being taken off readily at an advance of Is. per qr ,
whilst at the same time more deosition was manifested to
purchase the best South Country qualities, gent eel runs of
red commanding 50s. to 525. ; and extra Suffolk
w as
up
to 535. per qr , weighed fellbs. per bushel. Foreien
generally held for mere money, which tended to check bu-
siness. For Flour there was a steady inquiry, households
being saleable at 365. to 375. per sack, according to quality.
Our arrivals this week, though considerable, have been pretty
will got through, which circumstance we suspect will lettuce
the holders of graoaried stocks to demand a slight enhance-
ment next week, and which, in all probability, will he got,
provided other markets cause better. In Rye very little
doing. Malting Barley still tending downwards, and the
same may be said of Malt. Beans and Peas unaltered. With
Oats we were well supplied by the growers, as well as from
the coast, but the demand proving tolerably good, • fair
clearance was effected at about the rates of this day se'nitight.
NF.WPORT (lees or WIMIT), March 4.-Our market to-
day was well supplied with alt kinds of grain, which s ild at
about last week's prices. Wheat, 48s. to 525. Barley, 27a.
to 30e. Oats, 21s. to 245. Beans, 425. to 445. per qr.
NORWICH, March 4.-Our market was but scantily
general condition must he weed bed. The merehente also
offering scantily, the best runs realised full Is. per qr.
more than lad week. Fereign offered at last we. k's rate..
Flour was in good r quest, sod must be quoted 6d. per sack
dearer for all prime marks. Barley remains the same.
Beam, Peas, and Oats, also nominally the same, and but
little business transacted.
NOTTINGHAM, March 4. -We have a fair quantity of
Wheat showing to-day, but holders require an advance upon
last week's rates, which millers cannot generally comply
with, and the ount of business done is but small. Fur most
articles in the tramade the rates of last week may be quoted,
with but few exceptions.
Prreaeonovon, March 4.-We have a good supply of
all grain to this day's market. Fine Wheat is in demand,
at Is. per qr. advance, and inferior sorts are more in request
than of late. Barley, Is. cheaper. Oats maintain late rates.
No change in the value of Beans, being in demand for seed.
Currency to the growers Wheat, new, 40s. to 445. ; fine,
60s. to 521. ; old, 50s. to 525. ; fine, 54a. Barley, 295. to 30s. ;
fine, 33.. Oats, new, 17s. to Bs.; fine, 21s. to 245. ; old
28i. to 305.; fine, 325. Beans, 1
old, 50.. to 625. ; new, 385.
to 425.
Farwoneu, March 4.-The trade in Wheat ar dimes
extremely dull, and but little business was done at our
market today, at prices nominally the same. Barley in fair
demand, at about late rates. For Oats and Peas rather more
inquiry for seed. Beans scarcely inquired for.
READING, March 4.-We have again to report a short
supply of Wheat and Barley ; beet qualities of both met a
ready sale at Is. per qr. advance, but damp and inferior sorts
were very slow, at last week's prices. Oats, Beans, and
Peas dull, and scarcely maintained recent value. The seed
trade was likewise remarkably dull, and prices were gene-
rally lower.
SAFFRON WALDEN, March 4.-Though RO very per-
ceptible alteration in the Wheat market since the last-day,
yet good and dry samples were in request. Barley main-
tains its price. Oats, Beans, and Peas are lower.
WARMINSTER, March 4.-Some best dry Wheat sold at
28s. to 295. per sack ; fine old, 285.; moderate, 265. to 275. ,•
inferior without an offer. Barley, the best malting, reached
355. to 365. per quarter ; second sorts, 325. to 345. ; inferior,
30s. Oats sold readily at last week's prirts. Beans, Per.
and Rye for spring-sowing were from Is. to 2s. per quarter
lower.
WINCHESTER, Match 4.-Fine Wheats in good demand,
at from 131. 16s. to 141. 10s. per load; second rate quality,
131. ; inferior, from 12/. to 121. 10s. Barley : Some of the
heavy samples fetched 345. per qr. ; some very fair samples,
30s. to 32a. ; inferior, 28s. Oats realised quite as much as
last week. Bean. and Pert, although in good demand, were
purchased lower by la per qr.
WISBECH, March 4.-The supply of all kinds of grain at
this day's market is unusually smell. Wheat coming in
better ionditior, the demand is livelv,at an advance oils. per
qr. Outs and Beans each in demand, on fully the terms of
this day week. Prices to the growers: Wheat, fine white,
6llbs. to 621 M., 48s. to 505. per qr. • red, 465. to 495. ; good
run., 601 M. to 611 M, white, 455. to '4Bs. ; red, 455. to 475. •

Oats, fine new riesling, per stone lid. ; good, new, feed
10d. to 1044. Beans, new, 351. to '37s.
WORCESTER, March 4. -Our market to-day was well sup-
plied with Wheat, which sold readily at the currency of this
day se'nnight. Barley dull, and Is. per qr. lower. Oats unal-
tered in value, and wily limited quantities were dieposed
of. Beane held for an advance of lc to 2a. per qr., which
prevented Wet of any consequence.
YORE, March 4.-We have a fair supply of Wheat, which
has met a tree sale at a shade over last week's prices. Bar-
ley slow sale, and rather lower. Oats, for seed, in good
demand, at higher prices ; Mealing Oats Gd. dearer. In
other articles no alteration.
DUBLIN, March 3. -On Tuesday we experienced a gene-
ral improvement in demand and prices. Today, on the
opening of business, sonic further advance was demanded,
but buyers, acting with reserve, prices for Wheat and Oats
rather receded towards the close, and our quotations settled
at about the rates of this day week.
BELFAST, March 3.-We have had small supplies of grain
at market during the week, but have no alteration to report
in the price of any article except Wheat, which has advanced
3d. per cwt., with a good demand for prime samples.
Indian Corn is without alteration in value, and the de-
mand is slack. Russian Rye Meal has declined 3d. per cwt.
We have had a few days' of fine drying weather ; and,
should we experience a continuance of such, we may look
forward to small supplies and brisker markets, as farmers
will no doubt be occupied in spring labour, which is rather
backward. Prices:-Indian Corn, white, 81. to 81. 55.;

Coax, March 3.-For the first time for some months, we
perceive some slight indications of an amendment In trade,
as well as a tenth ncy to more firmness in our market.
Should the supplies from farmers fall off, as it is pro-
bable they now will, it is likely that prices will advance
a little, or at least be firmly supported; while, should an
European war take plaoe-and such an event is not at all
improbable-the certain effect, in our opinions would be
to force prices of all kinds of produce up considerably.
The Wheat market continues without much change, but we
observe during the last day or two a firmer feeling manifest.
In prepared Wheat we have very little doing, holders and.
purchasers alike declining to do business. The price of
Barley is well maintained, and the tendency upward. Oats are
unaltered in value. In prepared Oats we have nothing doing ;
the free on-board rates, which are quite nominal being
10s. 6d. to 10s. 9d. per brl. Flour meets a quiet, consump-
tive inquiry, at late prices. Indian Corn has spin rather
declined; and though to-day and yesterday wo think we per.

WATIRFORD. Mareb 4.-Our supplies of Grain from the
iseatatry have been rather limited this week, but we have
received a fair quantity from abroad. Our market has
ruled dull, Omagh a further small advance has been paid on
well conditioned samples of Wheat. Barley and Oats are
without change in value ; the low price of the latter begins

KIRCALDY, March 4 -Since Wednesday we have had an
improvement in the weather, and farmers can now proceed
with their field operations. At our country markets this
week we had rather short supplies of all kinds of grain, for
which there was a fair lieu:mit fir borne coneumption at the
rote of last week. re diy we had moderate supplies
of Wheat and Oats, but email of Barley. The condition of
the Wheat way worse than it has been this year; ann in oon-
quince sales were very low, at Is. per qr. reduction. Bar-
ley and Oats sold readily, at a slight advance in price.

WOOL—LoNnoN.—Since the conclusion of the
public sales the mark. t has been quiet but firm ; 600 bales
Cape and 250 Ms. Foreign have arrived. English is steady, at
previous terms.
Bitrairotio.—Notwithstanding all accounts of disturb-
ances in France, and the general limited use of Coburg
Wools, still there is no disposition to press sales. The sup-
' ply of skin Wools, which is now becoming good, and comb-
ing length, does not effect the price. The stock in the
marks t continues only hare.
LEEDS, March 3.—There has been a fair extent of busi-
ness done in foreign Wools this week, and at previous rates.
In English the business transacted during the present week
has been decidedly less than fur the two or three weeks
previous, chiefly, we think, owing to the disturbances in
Franc:. We are, however, disposed to view this effect as
temporary. In prices we have no alteration.
LI'VERPOOL.—The market has been very dull for foreign
Wool this week, and there is more disposition on the part of
holders to realise. Prices do not offer any subject for remark.
In Scotch there is little to report ; supplie , although small,
are equal to the demand.—lmports

CATTLE, BCC.—SMITHFIELD, Two o'Clotk.—We
are but moderately supplied with Beasts to day ; the best
qualities are therefore readily disposed of at fully late rates.
In some eases, 4s. 103. is made of choice descriptions, but
our top average quotations cannot be called more than 4s. Bd.
We have 228 from Holland, 58 from Spain, 200 from Scot.
land, 100 from Ireland, and 1,800 from Norfolk and Suffolk.
The supply of Sheep is unusually small, and quickly cleared
off at an advance of fully 23. per 81b. We have several shorn
Sheep in market to. day. The weather is hardly settled enough
to cause a brisk demand for them; in consequence of the
scarcity, however, they make a fair price, varying from
4s. 8,1. to ss. 2d. We hate from Holland 270 Sheep and 70
Calves. Although the supply of Calves is small, trade is dull
for them, and Friday's prices with difficulty supported.
Trade continues good fur Pigs, the number on hand being
but small.
