TOOLET-STREZT, HAT 28.—1 n the early pert of the week
the apeeseion in the Irish batter market was unrelieved,
sad lower prices had to In submitted to when buyers ap-
peared; subsequently, however, foreign butter ad
and experiencing a good demand, there wee an improved
feeling, and sales more readily effected. The epialities most
in request were Cork thirds and fourths at 9th. to 82e. for
favourite shipment', and 2s. Ice. far other brands. Owing to
meants received to-dry from Cork, shippers probably will
be demanding Is. to 2s. more money for next week. Clon-
mel has been selling from 92.. to 96e. Bona Limerick
arrived, but at present it is not required, Cork thirds at 90e.
being prefened by the trade. The supply since Monday
consists of 202 Waterford, 638 Limerick and Truss, and
2,240 firkins from Cork ; the delivery, 3,600 firkins.

week at 88s. ; the beet Dutch and J , 84s.
Towards the close tare was an improved
and prim advanced to 91..; fins Friesland and Jersey,
88s. to 925. The bona market during the week has been in
the same dull iosaimate state as noted for some time pest,
and dime doss not appear to be the slightest prospect of any
insprovanent, until a large portion of the stock at the
wharves goes into cuaumption. Re-sales ere being pressed
at fully Sks. reduction from lest week's prices, and the trans-
actions cautions entirely restricted to the actual and imme-
diate remzirements of the few cheesemongers out of stork.

Gatos, and a quantity of best medusa by • Hamburg

COTTON.—Ltautroox, Mar 28.—The sales of cotton
to-day are estimated at 10,000 bales. There baa been a
better feeling in the market, with steadier prime.

COTTON 000D8.—BILICCRISSTII, MAY 28.—There is
no improvement is the ocatinental braneh of our trade, and
the producers of domestics and T cloths still find an exored-
laity det reseed and eluggials market. In the home trade
there is some improvement, partly arieieg from the lea
we►ther, and partly from buyers in that trade finding it ex-
pedient to place seders which have been bold over, now that
price* have bra n stirred in an upward direction by th• re-
hewed demand for India. The renewed demand mooed on
Tuesday, by the telegrams to hand from Calcutta to the 24th
ultimo, has led to traametiona of great magnitude, end prier
have gone up lid. to 3d. per piece for 40-Inch shirtiega,
jaeonete, nalapollame, sad figured shirtioge, whilst 46 to
64-inch shirting. (which animates, and have been contracted
for up to the end of July) have Meowed 6d. per piece, and
in some instenose have realised more. Holders of stocks,
large arid small, whom the demand had not reached on Twil-
-1 day, found all kind, of goods available for the markets of the
east in requisition on tae next and following day, and slice
then great number' of maouracturere have been placed
under contract for further supply. There bee also been •
considerable demand for India qualities of mull up to 60's, at
rather Armor, but not higher rate., and the spinners of twist
suitable foe India clothe at hear have beam able to book some
considerable orders.

WOOLLEN.—Lums, MAT 211.—The markets mafatain
an improved airport. There has bees a good attendance of
buyers in the hells, and maim bare been more steely effected
this morning than ham bean the one lately. The demand for
cloths of a better climbs* been good ; other fabric hare bean
in feir requeet also.

BARD WABB.—Builitirosiart, MAT 28.—The trade o
this town is cheracterited by a good deal of languor : duce the
sloes of lam week the factors have given out a fair sprinkling
of orders, and in coma quarters there M a frith' that bust-
ers generally, as far los the borne trade is concerned, dis-
plays rather mare animation. But the change in aim respect
is inconsiderable; it bas been insulficitnt to stimulate any of
the Bodin staple trades, in which busineas has been sleek
ever shies the commencement of the quarter. Three is a
want of confidence in the maintenance of prices which detain
the shopkeepers from ordering goods except in small quanti-
ties, and for the present no improvement can reasonably be
anticipated. Ths repeats e. to the state of to iron trade are
not favourable. At many of the mills they are very short
of order., is cousequeece of the depressed Mate of
the export had' at this moment. It is only those
who have a large connexion, and who make favourite brands
of finiaLed iron, who are enabled to keep the works fully
going. Pig-iron is incraesiog in stock; the price is quoted
lower, and It bee teen rumouret this week that it is is we-
templation to blow out furnaces ; but the pig-msaters are
always slow to resort to this methane, on account of the low
it entails upon them; so that meet likely the measure will be
delayed, with the view to the chance of the trade improving.
