CORK, MAY 9.
The trade during the week, in the absence of any foreignarrivals of importance, continues much in the condition note 7
in our last. Large arrivals at Mark.lane of foreign wheat, and
a continued large influx of flour (principally of French nrami:
facture) have had the effect of keeping prices in that market
depressed. In consequence of the interference of the foreign
manufactured article with that made by our home millers,
low undergrewl of discontent is beginning to proceed from the
latter, and appears the precursor of more overt acts of hostility
to the law as it at present stands. The receipts of home grain
are very trifling, and consist of—Wheat, 2 brls; barley, 171
kris; and oats, 677 brls. Prices remain unaltered. In the
finer descriptions of wheat the business passing is confined to
the supply of present wants. Coarse kinds, such as Egyptian'
meet a ready sale at prices fully equal to, if not exceeding,
those current last week. Of barley no stocks are held hero'
Oats continue very firm, and the sales which have been road*
were at prices in faveur of the holder, The business passing,
in fine flour is very restricted, but coarse qualities sell freely P
full rates. Indian cern has met an active inquiry, and a con',
siderable business has been done in the article at an advance ot,
fully 5s per ton. We quote the value of Galata, 7d 15, to 7'
173. 64 per ton, and some holders, we are
Cinurrfoerrnne:d., are
asking 81.
