continues very dull, and prices for most descriptions of raw
sugar are again rather easier this week. Refined goods are in
better demand, and command firmer prices. Ram is very dull.

kvEaroot, MARCIE 23.—At this morning's market there
was a thin attendance of dealers. Wheat and flour net a
limited demand, at the prices of Tuesday. Oats and oatmeal
were in good request, the former at full prices, And the latter
at 3d per load advance. Beans were held for more money,
which checked sales. Indian corn of good quality, being scarce,
brought rather higher prises. New yellow American was sold
at 30s 6d, while old was held at 31s per 480Ibs.
BANGOR, MARCH 28.—Wheat and barley snoved very
slowly. Wheat, from 40s to 425; barley, 20s to 225; good
potato oats forseed, 17s to 18s; common ditto, 14s to 15s
.6d ;
oatmeal, 22s 6d per 24011 n.
EXETER, MARCH 28.—Cattle Market—There has been a
large supply of beasts driven in, and a moderate one of sheep;
the demand has not been brisk. Fat beef has sold from 7s to
is 9d per score. Pork carcases—There was rather a less sup-
ply than last week. Prices ranged from 6* to is 3d per score.

tended. Holders of English wheat are mostly unanimous in
standing out for 5s 3d per bushel for warranted samples, but
the millers generally refuse to give any more than ss. Prices
must be quoted 4s 6d to 5s 3d. In foreign samples of prime
French red were offering at 40s per quarter ; barley, 3s per
bushel; oats, 2s to 2s 2d per bushel; fine flour, 28s to 29s

THE CLOTHING MANUFACTURES.
WOOL TRADE, LONDON, MARCH 27. The imports of
wool into London during the week ending to-day were 3,048
bales, comprising 1,282 from Port Phillip, 1,110 from the Cape
of Good Hope, 479 from Bombay, 131 from Swan River, and
the rest from Italy, France, &c. The market is dull.
FOREIGN WOOL, LEEDS, Masten 28.—The demand for
foreign and colonial wools during the past week was such as to
confirm the improvement noticed in our last report. Manu-
facturers being very generally quite bare of wool are quite pre-
pared to operate at present rates, as they are now pretty well
assured prices are not likely further to recede.
ENGLISH WOOL, MARCH 28.—There has not been any
change of moment this week. Sales have been; mall, and
limited to the immedia'e wants of buyers. Pricesar e quoted
the same as last week.
TRADE or LICEDE.—We have little alteration to make in
our report, from the previous week. Perhaps we may be cor-
rect in saying that matters are a little more lively, but still
they are flat. Stocks in the Cloth-halls continue light.
BRADFORD MARKET, MARCH 27.—Wools—The sales dur-
ing the week have been somewhat increased where an induce-
ment in price has been conceded; noils and brokes still com-
mand unsatisfactory prices. Yarns—The demand is not mate-
rially increased for actual consumption, but the ruinous prices
at which sales have been effected has had the tendency of clear
ing off small lots in stock. There is a daily addition to the
machinery standing, for this is attended with the least loss, the
price of labour being higher than in 1848. Pieces—There is
rather more doing than last week, but at very unsatisfactory
and discouraging prices.
TRADE •r MANCHESTER, MARCH 27.—Since Tuesday,
there have been some considerable purchases for India and
China, both of cloth and yarn, but the advanced prices asked
by manufacturers, on all hands, restrict business to the imme-
diate wants of buyers. The advance on shirtings is 3d. per
piece in 42-inch, and lid in 36-inch; on yarn about id. per lb.
on the average. Buyers are willing to give lid advance on last
week's quotations for yarn, but are not operating freely at the
larger quotations. The home trade still continues dull, and
Purchases are only made to supply the wants of the consumers
from day to day.
