LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, FEB. 20.

The trade continue Co purchase very sparingly ; the sales on
Tuesday were 1000 bags, and 3000 were sold to-day without altera-
tion in prices.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, FEB. 19

We have again to note considerable arrivals of Wheat and Flour
from foreign ports, and of Wheat, Oats, Flour, and Oatmeal, from
Ireland and Coastways, since Tuesday last, much exceeding the
demand, although it has improved a little during the past week,
and sales of Wheat, particularly of red French, and of middling
qualities of foreign growth from the Mediterranean ports, have
been made to a moderate extent, to our own millers, and to those
in distant interior markets to the southward, at prices barely sup-
porting our last quotations, at which the superior qualities of British
and Foreign are firmly held; for every other article in the Corn
trade sales have been very limited at a small decline, though not
sufficiently decided to alter quotations. In the Yorkshire markets
of the past week there was a small improvement, but at Manchester
on Saturday there was but a very dull market, and very little done
in Grain from this port.
_ _ _

There is no alteration this week in the duties on Grain from fo-
reign ports, and we can note no transactions in Oats, Beans, or
Peas, the only Grain in bond here.
At this day's market we had a fair attendance, but although there
was an advance of Is to 2s per quarter on Wheat in Mark-lane
yesterday, and rather more activity in the trade here to-day, sales
were made only to a moderate extent of Wheat at prices not ex-
ceeding those of this day week, and .for all other articles the de-
mand was very limited at about last quotations—excepting Oats,
which were about Id per 451 b. and Oatmeal, which was 6d to Is per
2401 b lower.

LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, FEB. 18.
The supply of Beasts at market to-day has been exceedingly,
small, the least show we have had for the season, but the quality
has been generally pretty good, and from the limited number the
prices have been considerably in advance from our last quotations.
The supply of Sheep has been much the same as last week, and sce
cannot note any alteration in prices from last week. The best Beef
sold readily at fully 7d, varying from that down to 6id, agreeable to
quality ; a very few of ordinary quality at a shade less. The best
Wether Mutton may be quoted at Bd, second quality yid, ordinary
and Ewe id. The market may be considered a very brisk one, as
well as very dear, as both descriptions of stock were sold up at an
early hour.—Number of Beasts, 710; Sheep, 3863.

FROM THE LONDON PRICES CURRENT,
FEBRUARY 19.

Rum, BRANDY & HOLLANDS.—For shipping there has been
scarcely any demand for Rum, and the home trade have purchased
cautiously of Jamaica as well as of Leewards.—Brandy has becow
dull of Sale, and there are sellers at easier prices.—ln Geneva ther3
has been a fair business doing.
PROVISIONS.—The limited business that has been done in Irish
Butter has furtber reduced prices Is to 2s per cwt. ; the best in th
market not being worth more than 96s per cA&t. Of foreign, little
is here, and prices for the best, rule about 106 s per cwt.—Lard dull
of sale, and lower.—Bacon can be sold in small quantities only, but
holders do not seem disposed to take any thing below the prices
quoted.—lndia Beef and Pork cheaper.
SUGAR.—This afternoon there was more life in the market ; from
the grocers there was a good demand, and for refining there was a
fair business doing. The private purchases amounted to 800 hhds.
and tces. at Friday's prices, and in some instances they were rather
higher.

FOREIGN.—Prices remain firm for all good descriptions, but ordi-
nary and soft kinds may be purchased on easier terms ; the trans-
actions have again been limited by private contract in Havana as
well as in Brazil.

COFFER.—This afternoon, for British Plantation, there was a good
demand for home consumption, and nearly the whole of 145 casks
3 brls 233 bags at public sale, were sold at full prices, in some in-
stances the very ordinary unclean sorts went a shade lower : Ber-
bice, good middling clean sold at 109 s to Ills; Demerara, •unclean
ordinary to good ordinary 85s to 90s, triage 675.
TALLOW.—The market in the middle part of last week was in a
very dull state, and prices on Wednesday declined to 48s 6d on the
spot.

SMITHFIELD MARKET, LONDON, FEB. 18.
There was a fair average time of year number of English-fed
Beasts on sale in our market of to-day, which, owing in a gregt
measure to the unfavourable state of the weather, experienced a
very heavy inquiry, at a decline of last week's quotations of 2d per
Sibs. whilst a large portion of the Bullock supply left the market
unsold. As the number of Sheep on sale was by no means exten-
sive, the Mutton trade was somewhat renovated, at fully Friday's
enhanced rates. In. Pigs exceedingly little business was transacted,
at unaltered currencies.
