LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET,
FRIDAY, MAY 28.

At our market this morning we experienced a slow demand
for Wheat oncountry account as well at from our local millers,
but a few more parcels having been sold for shipment to Ire-
land, and holders remaining firm, all good descriptions of
English and Foreign maintained previous quotations, and fair
qualities or Egyptian were Id per 701bs dearer. States, and
Canadian Flour, being still held tenaciously by importers, had
a tendency to check any extensive sales to day, which at a
moderate abatement might have been effected ; the transac-
tions this morning, therefore, were restricted to the wants of
needy customers at prices epual to those of Tuesday last ;
French Flour in all respects remains unaltered. In Barley,
Malt, and Peas little done, and no change in prices. Egyptian
Beans rather dearer, and other kinds steady. Prime mealing
Cats realised 2s Iod per 451bs, but inferiorqualities, being diffi-
cult of sale, were the turn cheaper ; and Oatmeal, upon a
limited demand, barely sustained its former value. Yellow
Indian Corn was held for Is per qr. advance, but reluctantly
paid on a few limited transactions; white Corn scarcely varied
in value. We annex Tuesday's quotations :

LIVERPOOL CATTLE -MARKET,

MONDAY, MAY 31.
We have had considerable imports of live stock from Ire-
land, but from Scotland and coastwise they are limited. The
official returns from the 22nd to the 29th instant inclusive are,
from Ireland, 1300 beasts, 1922 sheep, 1061 pigs, 1456 lambs, 3
calves, and 102 horses. From Scotland we received 327 beasts
1210 sheep, 33 pigs, 3 horses, and 6 calves. Coastwise the ar-
rivals were only 51 beasts, 107 sheep, and 5 calves; and from
the Isle of Man, 1 beast, and 25 lambs. To-day's market has
been well supplied with sheep and lambs, and we had also a
greater quantity of beasts on sale. Generally speaking, the
quality and condition of the stock was good; and although
there was a fair attendance of buyers, the trade did not mani-
fest much activity. Beef, of prime quality, sold at about the
rates of last week ; and, towards the close of business, a pretty
fair clearance was effected, some really prime things bringin
sid. per lb. Owing to the large supply of cheep and lambs,
buyers found a difficulty in effecting sales at last week's prices,
and, at the close of the market, several were • turned out un-
purchased. We quote prime heifer beef sd. to 54d.; do. oxen
4fd. to sid. ; middling to inferior, 36d. to 4id. ; fine wether
mutton, 51d. to 6d.; middling to inferior, 41d. to 5d.; ewes,
4td. to sad. ; middling to inferior, 4d. to -lid. per lb., sinking
the offal. Lambs, 6d. to 7d. per lb. Numbers at market :-
1347 beasts, and 9031 sheep and lambs.
