MANCHESTER, MARCH 6.—Since the receipt of the report
of Monday's market at Mark-lane the trade here has been of
a very quiet character, without any perceptible change in the
value of any article. The imports into Liverpool and Run-
corn this week exhibit inareased quantities of oats, barley, mat
malt, coastwise; oats and oatmeal from Ireland; and wheat
and flour from abroad; but on the whole they are still far
from extensive. At our market this morning there was only a
limited amount of business passing, and although in some in-
stances the turn of prices was slightly in favour of buyers, the
alteration was too trifling to admit of any variation in the quo;
tations of this day se'nnight.
GLOIJOESTER, MARCH 6.—We have not had a single llnpons
tation of wheat from abroad this week, but the supplies of
barley have been pretty liberal. Wheat fully maintains late
rates, and there is still an upward tendency in prices. Englion
red wheat is worth 53 6d per bushel, and white 63; foreign,
4s 6d to 5s 9d per bushel. Malting barley averages 305 per
quarter. Irish malting, 27s to 29s ; and grinding, 23s to 255.
Old English oats, 23s to 25s per quarter; new, 20s to 215;
and Irish, 19s to 21s per quarter. Old English beans about
45, and new 3s Ed to 3s 10d per bushel. French, 3s ~(1 to
3s 10d ; and Egyptian, 3s 6d. Yeas average 4s per bushel. _
NOTTINGHAM, Manen 6.—At Derby yesterday there and
a dull trade for wheat, at barely late rates. A good deraaot
prevailed for seed oats, and full prices were given for finsqualities. Other things were unaltered. Wheat, red, 445 to
46s per stone ; ditto, white, 50s to 535; barley, for malting;
