CORN MARKETS.

MANCHESTER, APRIL 24.—The Flour trade throughout
.the week has continued to exhibit much firmness, but on the
whole the amount of business passing has not been extensive,
the dealers and bakers acting with caution and purchasing but
little beyond what they required for present consumption.
Prices were fully supported, and in some instances, for ap-
proved and fresh-made qualities. slightly exceeded. Other ar-
ticles have undergone no material change in .any respect. At
our market this morning the trade ruled dull, the fact of hold-
ers demanding rather more money for both Wheat and Flour
tending to check sales. Oats and Oatmeal were only in mode-
rate demand, but maintained their previous value. Egyptian
Beans must be noted 6d. to Is. per qr. dearer.

WAKEFIELD, APRIL 23.—The arrival of Wheat continues
small, but there is a better show of samples than last week,
and a moderate demand for fresh qualities at similar prices.
Oats and Shelling are fully as dear. Barley not much inquired
for. Beans as last stated.
WISBECH, APRIL 24.—We have a fair quantity of Wheat
offering here to-day, and all fresh-thrashed samples are in
perfect condition, and make Is. per quarter more money-40s.
being the general price of the best runs of red, 631 b.; but the
sale is slow. The supply of Oats and Beans is but short, and
no alteration in value has taken place.
NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, A!'RIL 24.—There was only a
very moderate supply of wheat this morning from the country,
and the whole was quickly disposed of, at an advance of Is. per
qr. The arrivals of wheat 'coastwise during the week are ex-
ceedingly limited, in consequence of which, all fresh qualities
,on offer were in good request, and brought fully Is. per qr.
more money than on this day sennight: a choice kit of South
Country obtained 445. per qr., weighed 631bs. per bushel. In
Foreign there was not much business passing, as the principal
holders refuse to accept the present market value ; but where
sales were effected, a similar improvement to English was es-
tablished. In the value of maltinz barley no change can be
noticed, but grinding qualities were in request at rather higher
rates. There was more inquiry for oats ; fine samples advanced
6d. per qr.; and the general descriptions, although a better
sale, cannot be called any dearer. Pease and. beans as last
reported. Flour in small supply, and generally held for an
advance of Is. per sack. The weather still rules dry and parch-
ing, and rain is greatly needed.

DUBLIN, Aram 23.—The corn market to-day was again ex-
tremely dull for home grain, even Oats, which were heretofore
iu demand, moved off very slowly, and all but the best qualities
were 3d. cheaper. We note no alteration in the prices of Wheas
and Barley. Indian Corn met an improved demand, which was
6d. dearer.

CORK, APRIL 24.—A better 'demand for Flour for present
consumption has been experienced this week, and an active
business done. Wheat and Indian Corn are held very firmly,
or for more money; but there is little speculative feeling
among the millers, and the demand is supplied at about last
week's rates. The favourable change in the weather promises
a good growing season.
