1 - BARIVOOD :A small parcel at £6 lOs per ton.
CORN : The wheat market may be quoted at 24 per
bushel dearer to-day, at which advance holders are very
firm, but having, as usual on Fridays, a smaller number of
extensive buyers, the transactions are less important,
still a good large business has been done in almost every
' description of quality, finest white and red American
rating at 10s 81, and 9s 6,1 to 9s 91 per 70 lbs respectively.
Flour maintains extreme prices, and extra brands are
rather dearer. Egyptian beans readily bring 6d to is per
(=Limner more money, the quantity on hand being very
small. Oats are in fair request at late prices ; but oat-
meal is again somewhat cheaper. There is no change in
Indian earn, and few parcels sold; were sellers to give
way a trill-, good progress might be made. Arrivals

PROVISIONS : The market for beef is dull and lifeless,
and sales are difficult to effect, and can only be made in
quantity by taking prices considerably under the
nominally current rates. In pork a dull sale of matters
also prevails, but there is less anxiety to press sales than
with beef, as the high prices of now Irish pork will throw
the consumption on the present stock later in the season than usual. For bacon there is a moderate retail trade
demand, and the stocks get now into a narrow compass ;
in prices there is no variation to report. Lard is very
quiet, with prices rather in favour of buyers. The
consumption seems almost to have ceased. Cheese a
little easier, except for the choicest qualities. In tallow
the transactions are to a fair extent, at about last week's
prices.

LON DON.
SUGAR : The market has again fully supported the
prices of last week, and the trade have bought steadily
and rather large, and occasionally have paid a shade
advance for fine qualities. There has not been much
bought for exportation. The refined market has also been
firm ; grocery lumps 5.5 s to 58s.
COFFEE : The amount of business done has not been
large, but prices have been supported. Native Ceylon
quoted 524 to 53,, partly nominal.
TEA : We have had a dull market for this article, but
we do not alter our general quotations. A limited busi-
ness done in common eongou at 81d per lb.
Rica : The demand has been dull, and in some instances
the decline of 31 has been submitted to.

of business done. Refraction 1 to 2i, sold 34s 6d to
36s 6d.

COTTON has been in large demand; 6,000 bales sold

on the part of holders to prevent. a decline.

have not appeared this week.

CATTLE : Although rather shorter than on Friday last,
the supply of beasts is still large, and trade is exceedingly
dull, especially for middling qualities, which constitute

but trade is generally slow. Calves alvaneed 23 per

LIVERPOOL.
COTTON.—The cotton market opened buoyantly in the
commencement of the week, and very extreme prices were
obtained. The unexpected proceeding of the Bank on
Monday, raising the rate of discount to 6 per cent. on
short, and 7 per cent. on 90 days' drafts, caused a pause,
and buyers had an advantage, which, however, was only
momentary, the general opinion being that the stringency
would Le of short duration; and the accounts from the
States not
cotton was being favourable for the growing crop, less
o d, which, with a large speculative en-
quiry, advanced prices fully 1-16 d per lb. on the current
qualities of American. In Brazil and Egyptian a good
business, at full prices. Surat very firm, at extreme rates.
The weekly sales are 63,730 bales, of which 13,010 are on
speculation, and 10,b70 for export.
