CORK, JAN. 2.

During the last day or two, we have had some] brisk-
ness in the trade, in wheat especially, a considerable
busines, having been done in the article, which is very
firm with au upward tendency-. Oats excepted, the
value of other descriptions of grain also is firmly main-
tained. FVe have bat few arrivals to notice from abroad,
while the receipts of home grain also are very moderate,
tt,e supply for the week amounting to only :—Wheat,
334 brls at 17s 6d to 20. 6d per brl; barley, 762 brls at
los 6d to 12s 3d per tirl; oats, 2,333 brim at 9s to 10s 6d
per hrl. There is scarcely auy alteration in the value
of either description of grain since our last. As we be-
fore remarked we have had a pretty brisk business pas.;
jog in foreign wheat. Several large parcels have changed
hands, and though we can scarcely quote any actual ad'
vance on the article, there is great briskness in the trade
and a manifest upward tendency. Barley continues in
the same brisk demand noticed of late, and prices ere
firmly maintained, Oats, with depressed advices from
and large arrivals at ihe English side, are dull, and We
have not heard of any transactions in the article. Prices
continue nominally as last quoted. The bakers not
having fully worked tff their Christmas stocks, are not
as yet in the market as purchasers. The trade in flour
therefore is quiet, and we have no alteration in price.'
The value of Indian corn is firmly maintained, but the
business doing in this grain is not extensive. prices
are unchanged, the extreme rates demanded for Galati
being 61 15s per ton.
