BELFAST LINEN TRADE CIRCULAR,

Drawn up by a Committee of the Linen Trade appointed
under the sanction of the Belfast Chamber of Commerce.
Belfast, Friday Evening..
FLAX : The supply in the country markets this week has
been fair. The demand was good for fine and mcdinm
qualities, and dull for coarse. In Armagh, Cootehill, Bally-
bay, and T :nclragee, about 120 tons appeared, which sold
at Ss to 8s for handscutched, and 7s 3d to 14s for milled,
per s tone of 161bs. Riga FPCM is quoted here at £46 103
FPLCM, at £47 10s.

YARNS : During the week the demand for yarns has been
steady, both for home consumption and export. Prices of
warps are firm, and in wefts there is no change to note since
last week.

BROWN LINENS IN COUNTRY MARKETS : In last Bally-
mena market there was a good supply, a fair demand, and
prices firmer. At Armagh the supply was not large.
Middle-priced rough browns were very freely bought at the
full rates of the past few markets. Goods, suited for Hol-
lands, in rather limited demand, yet holders would not give
way in price. At Lurgan, damasks and diapers were in
better request, but without change in price. Lawns in fair
demand and scarce.

WRITE LINENS: The home trade continues dull, but
stocks are not heavy.

BRITISH. AND FOREIGN' MARKETS : Flax and Tow.—At
Dundee prices are still irregular, but holders have made con-
cessions' and an average business has been done in flax.
Sales of PCM, at £4l 10s per ton; IVPHT, 445; PDC,
£39--three months. Tow very dull, and prices declining.
Arrivals of the week, 65 tons flax and tow. At Hull there
is more inquiry for fl.tx, but little actual business done,
spinners asking a greater reduction than holders will sub-
mit to. WCM quoted £4B ; WPHT, £43 ; Petersburg 12-
heads, £4l to £44. Arrivals of the week, 539 tons flax and
tow. Yarns.—Line yarns are in moderate demand at Dun-
dee tow yarns very dull, and lower. Linens.--Coarse
goods dull in Scotland; others in fair demand. New York
advices, to sth instant, report the spring trade interferred in
its opening by long continuance of severe snow and frost,
but promising fair.

CORK BUTTER : Ist3, nil, 1183 ; ?ods, 12, 118 s ; 3rds,
36, 105 s ; 4ths, 93, 953 ; sths, 24, 82s; 6ths, 3, 725.

THE PEACE NEWS IN WALL-STREET.—TREMENDOUS
ENTHUSIASM —THE BULLS IN ALL THEIR GLORY.—Yester-
day was an extraordinary day in Wall street. For ten years
there has not been such a day for stocks, and bulls, and
lame (hicks. Every stock broker's office was crowded with
buyers and ready money. Such confidence, such enthusiasm,
such abiding faith in an early peace, wholly eclipse the timid
demonstrations of the London Stock Exchange and the Paris
Bourse. If such are the consequences here of the mere
agreement of Russia to enter into negotiations for closing
the war, what will be the result of a definite treaty of peace ?
That's the question. Probably another epoch of inflations
and speculations, ending some day in another general bank
suspension and financial collapse, But with a peace in
Europe, the faith of Wall street in Marcy's capabi-
lities to keep the peace with John Bull is unbounded.
Seward's war speech is all moonshine in Wall-
street. The bulls are turned loose, the pigeons
are flocking again to their old haunts, and the
lame ducks are beginning to waddle about, with a knowing
look, in the open air. Austria's protocol has proved the
" open sesame" of Wall-street, and the grand rush of yes-
terday for stocks is but the foretaste of the grand kite-flying
operations which peace with Russia will bring to these United
States. The rebound from the late long.protracted pressure
will surely be tremendous. Give every man a chance.—New
York paper.

the Sultan for the Emperor of the French.
The Sultan has also forwarded for the acceptance

THE CRIMEA.

By way of Constantinople we have intelligence
from the Crimea to the date of the 10th inst.

The fire from the north side of Sebastopol was
continually kept up by the Russian forces. The
Gunboats which had been at Kiuburn, had put
into Kamiesch for repairs.
The English army was stated to be ardent in
their desire-for the continuation of the war.

An order of the day issued by General Sir
Codrington, and published at Balaklava, requests
English officers to provide themselves with equip-
ments, so as to be ready to march.
