THE COUNTRY MARKETS.
LIVERPOOL, MARCH 27.—The depression of the grain:
trade continues, in the face of very moderate inverts, and
since Tuesday some sales of Anierican flour have been forced,
making prices irregular. This week's return of sales of .
British wheat. as given in the Gazette, is 83,125 paters,
against 107,37 1 quarters last week, showing an important
falling off. The Corn Exchange yesterday was again market
by dulness in the general demand, and wheat was considered to
be !d to 2d per bushel, and flour 6d per barrel worse in price
than on Tuesday last. Indian corn was also 3d., and RePtita
beans 6d per quarter lower. In oats and °stillest .and barley
there was no change in value. The trade to.day is still Alia
Ma :sexism it, MARCH 27.—Increasing dulness has Ow,
racterized the trade throughout the week,. and, ' as is usual
under such circumstances, most articles (but particularly Boars
which has been more anxiously pressed for sale) have eons
tinued to exhibit a drooping tendency in value. Coastwise
and from Ireland the arrivals at Liverpool and Rancorn ars
only to a moderate amount; but from abroad liberai supp ies of
wheat, beans, and flour are reported. At our Market %hie
morning wheat declined Id to 2d per 7 lb. and flour Is per
sack, without leading to any material increase of business.
Oats and oatin• al likewise met a very limited sale, and barelysupported the previous currency ; whilst beans, both English
and Egyptian, gave way 6d to is per quarter.

to-day the numbers were oxen, 74? ; sheep,637. In con-

an upward tendency. Best ox beef 435, current 40s to 425. , .fr..

The trade during the week has been exceedingly dull, and,
with but a very trifling business passing in any description of
grain, the market is lifeless and inactive in the extreme. The
arrivals from abroad which have taken place, and the dull ad-
vices from the English side have contributed to produce the
dulness. The supply of home grain is trifling, the receipts
for the week being—Wheat 65 brls, at 20s to 22s 3d per brl;
barley 372 brls, at 13s to 13s 94 per brl; oats 1,545 brls, at
9s 7d to lls 64 per brl. The value of each is much the same
as last week. In foreign wheat scarcely a transaction has
taken place, and buyers are offering at the decline of 6d to lm
(mentioned in oua last), but without finding purchasers; Bar-
ley -continues firm ' but in eats we have not a single transac-
tion to record, as holders here continue to demand prices
which purchasers cannot afford to give. The business pasting
in fine flour is very trifling, and the article is exceeding doll.
Coarse flour, however, continue in good demand, and sell are
elye
Indian corn partakes in the general depression; and must bthis
quoted 2s 6d to 5s per ton lower; the transactions even at
reduction being limited in the extreme. We are informed, 0111
good authority, that large quantities of potatoes are still in the
hands of the growers in the western distric a of this country.
