FISH-MARKET, BILLINGSGATE.
The quantity of fish brought up this day was pretty
considerable, and good, but the greater part of it m-as a
drug in the market, dealers purchasing no more than
would answer immediate consumption." ' Turbot, Cod-fish,
Brill, and Lobsters, were most in requisition. The best
fish went off at the following prices :—_,.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE.—Feb. WS.
To-day's market was very thinly attended by either town
or country buyers, and the transactions in either Wheat or
Oats were on a very limited scale : prime parcels of the
former article were generally held for last Tuesday's cur-
rency, but otter qualities were certainly cheaper. We
reduce our quotations on all descriptions of Oats Id. per
451 b., and note the trade exceedingly dull. No change in
the value of Flour or Oatmeal. Prices of Barley, .Bekins,
and Pease, also remain unaltered.

CATTLE MARKET.-The show to-day amounted to 65
head of cattle, viz.-20 three-year olds; 30 highlanders;
7 sticks ; 3 quevs and 5 cows. The three-years-olds,
which were of the Galloway breed, looked very small, and
were not in good conditition ; they remained unsold the
most part of the day, but were ultimately disposed of at
Si. 16s. per head. The highlanders, though like the
above lot, very small, looked fresh, and were sold in the
forenoon at Si. per head. We did not hear of any trans-
actions, worth notice, among the cows.
PORE MAREET.-113 carts —Early in the morning,
when the show consisted of only a few carts, and when it
was anticipated, from the state of the roads, that few more
would make their appearance, dealing began very briskly,
and in a few minutes all was sold off; 6s. 4d. per stone
was frequently given, and may be considered the top price
for good swine, and from that to ss. 10d. included the rites
of every description of pork. With the exception of a few
carts, which occasionally dropt in, the market was now
considered to be at an end ; towards the forenoon, how-
ever, carts began to flock in in great numbers ; this had the
effect of greatly reducing prices, which then rated, for su-
perior pork, from ss. 6d. to ss. 10d. per stone ; in a few
instances ss. I Id. was given; sows, thin pork, &c. sold
much lower ; indeed, at an advanced hour of the forenoon,
a good deal of pork remained unsold.
LIVE Pius.—ll carts.—Pigs from four to seven weeks
old, sold from 7s. to 18g. each ; from seven weeks, up-
wards, prices rated from 18s. to 255. each ; this was con-
sidered a very ',Ask market, and in the afternoon all was
disposed of.
