MATCHES' ER CORN MARKET.-.Ln. 31.

Since this day week the Corn trade has been quite life-
less ; and to this day's market we had a very small atten-
dance of country millers or dealers in Corn. There was
likewise a short supply of English Wheat ; the finest sam-
ples are in limited request at the prices of this day week ;
all other sorts are offered on lower terms. Grinding Bar-
ley is dull sale.: Oats are in better request, but not dearer.
There is a limited demand for Boiling Pease. Old Beans
are full ls. per quarter lower, as fine New have a decided
preference with the consumers. There has been so great
a falling off in the consumption of 11.! alt that in this arti-
cle there is scarcely any thing doing. Fine Flour barely
supports last week's prices. Oatmeal is in better repo:,
but not dearer.

STATE OF TRADE.—Through the greatest
part of the year 1828, the demand for woollen cloths and
worsted stuffs, the principal staples of the West-Riding of
Yorkshire, was very steady, and it is allowed that no year
in the memory of man ever produced more pieces; There
has, however, during the last two months, been an obvious
declension in the manufacturing business, and at present the
complaints in Leeds, Huddersfield, Wakefield, Bradford,
and Halifax, are very numerous, and we fear too well
founded. This is partly owing to the season of the year,
and partly perhaps to the near approach of the long antici-
pated change i❑ the currency, which induces both manu-
facturers and retail dealers to avoid burthening themselves
with stocks. Notwithstanding this depression, the prevail-
ing opinion is that trade will revive early in the spring, and
this expectation is encouraged by the fact that British
woollens are successfully competing, even in cheapness,
with thelmanufactures of Flanders and Germany,—Leeds
Mercury.
