,/VERI.JOL, ItCii 27. he uepi ersi.i, aof the gra"'
trade continues, in the lace of very moderate imports, and
since Tuesday same sales of American flour have been forced,
making prices irregular. This week's return of sales of
British wheat. as given in the Gazette, is 85,125 quarters,
against !u7,37f quarters last week, showing an important
falling off. The Corn Exchange yesterday was again marked
by dulness in the general demand, and wheat was considered to
be Id to 2d per bushel, and flour 6d per barrel worse in price
than on Tuesday last. Indian corn was also 3d., and EgyPti,an
beans .41 per quarter lower. In oats and oatmeal and barley
there was no change in value. The trade to-day is still dull.
~laxCiiESTa.s, MARCH -)7.—lncreasing dulness has cha-
racterized the trade throughout the week, and, as is usual
under such circumstances, most articles (but particularly fleas
which has been more anxiously pressed for sale) have con-
tinued to exhibit a drooping tendency in value. Coastwise
and from Ireland the arrivals at Liverpool and Runcorn are
only to a moderate amount ; but from abroad iherai supp its of
wheat, beans, and flour are; reported. At our market this
nao,-ning wheat declined dto 2d per 7 lb, and flour Is per
sack,t without leading to any material increase of business.
0 a and oaten al likewise met a very limited sale, and barely
supported the previous currency ; whilst beans, both English
and Egyptian, gave way 6d to is per quarter.

GLASGOW CATTLE MARKET, MARCH 25.—At our market
to-day the numbers ware oxen, 742; sheep, 637. In con-
sequence of there being a shorter supply of cattle at our market
the demand was brisk, and sales easily effected at pri es with
an upward tendency. Best ox beef 435, current 40s to 423,
middling quality aSs, inferior from 32s to 36s per cwt, sinking
the offal; all sold. The supply of sheep was rather over that
of last week, but d d not exceed the demand, and prices ruled
about those of last week. Best wethers 51d, current sd,
inferior 41id per lb, sinking the offal; all sold.
CORK, MARCH 26.
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 9d per brl; oats 1,545 brls, la
9s 7d to lls Ga per brl. The value of each is much the same
as last week. In foreign wheat scarcely a transaction Ilt_oola
taken place, and buyers are offering at the decline of 6d
to
(mentioned in oua last), but without finding purchasers. BO'
ley continues firm ; but in eats we have not a single trap
ices
tion to record, as holders here continue to demand pri.ce
which purchasers cannot afford to give. The business pass.of
in fine flour is very trifling, and the article is exceeding du
