LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, APRIL 11.

There has been a good business transacted during this week,
at gradually hardening prices; they may now be stated at the same
ratio as on this day fortnight. The sales on Tuesday amounted to
3000 bales, 500 American on speculation ; on Wednesday 5000 bales,
2000 American on speculation; and to-day the sales are reported
at 7000 bales, 1600 American, and 1000 Surat, on speculation.
The arrivals since Monday evening are 4 vessels from New
Orleans, 1 from New York, .1 from Charleston, and 1 from Pernam-
buco.

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, APRIL 11.
There is scarely anything now in the market but poor stale But-
ters, for which dealers do not evince any friendly feeling. Some
(so called) New Butter, has been offered at 108 s to 110s—',don't
they wish they may get it." Prime New Grass, when it appears,
will no doubt be well worth 113 s. We do not think it necessary to
alter our last quotations, generally speaking, for any article in the
trade.

LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, APRIL 8. '
The supply of Beasts at market to-day has been somewhat larger
than the preceding week, and the quality generally middling ; bu
although there has been an increase in number, the demands have
been equal to the supplies, and we cannot note any alteration in
prices from our last quotations. The number of Sheep has also
been a little larger than the preceding week, and prices much about
the same. The begt Beef may be quoted at 74d, second quality Rd
o7d per lb. Good Wether Mutton sold at Bd, second quality 7id
per lb, very inferior and Ewes at a shade less. The market upon
the whole may be considered a tolerable good one, though there
have been a few of both descriptions of stock left unsold. •Number
of cattle at market :--Beasts 949, Sheep 3080.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, APRIL `9.
(From the Circular of Messrs. James Scott and Son.)
By a careful examination of tables of imports for six months, for
the last five years, (for which we have not space in this day's paper)
it will be observed, that there is a small increase in the imports of
Oats, Barley, and Oatmeal, from Ireland, in the past half-year, but
that there is a considerable deficiency in those of Wheat and Flour
from thence ; thus, besides the very bad quality thereof, confirming
the great deficiency of the crops of Wheat there last year; and that
the imports of Wheat and Flour from foreign ports, direct, as well
as from English ports, particularly from London, coastways, (of
which fully four-fifths are of foreign growth.) are to a very unpre-
cedented extent, making an aggregate; in six months, of about
540,000 quarters into this port ; and although the demand for Wheat
from this, to our own immediate neighbourhood, and to markets
in the interior, particularly to the south, and also to Ireland, and
northern ports, has been very great; we perfectly agree with our
respected neighbours in the corn-trade, in estimating the stocks of
free Wheat now here at about 250,000 quarters, of. Flour at about
30,000 sacks and 80,000 barrels, and of Oatmeal of about 40,000
loads of 2401 b ;.--of all other free Grain very moderate, less than
usual ; but by a statement from official authority in the Mark- Lane
Express, in which we place every confidence, it appears that from
the sth of January, 1838, to the sth of March last, we have received
into the United Kingdom, for home use, nearly two and a half
million quarters of Wheat from foreign ports ; and with what we
now have, and what we have reason still to expect from the ports
in the Mediterranean, and from the Baltic in the spring, we see no
cause to anticipate either scarcity or excessive prices, though we
believe we shall continue to experience a good demand from distant
interior markets, and even from Ireland, and that no great stocks
Will remain to meet the next harvest, even if it proves in due time.
The stocks in bond here are very small, about 7000 quarters Oats,
1200 qrs. Barley, and 6000 qrs. Beans ; no Wheat or Flour.
The winter seed time was very favourable; and though with
occasional sharp frosty days, the winter has been very open, with-
out any snow throughout this district, latterly the weather has
been very severely cold, and the appearance of the Wheat crops is
rather backward, but all this may be remedied ! The discussion
on the subject of totally abolishing the corn laws, is set at rest for
the present ; perhaps the proper time has not yet come for their
abolition, though we believe that the injury to the landed interests,
and the benefit to the manufacturers anticipated from such an
event, would, in the long run, be found greatly overrated. A mo-
dification of the present laws might prove more equitable and con-
ciliatory; suppose that regulated by the present laws as to ave-
rages, and the bonding system continuing unaltered whenever the
aggregate average price of Wheat shall attain 66s per quarter, a
duty of 4s per quarter should be paid, and never lower; and that
at an average of 545, the duty should be 16s per quarter, and never
higher ; fluctuating Is per quarter as by the present laws ; and all
other grain to be reduced in a fair proportion.
During the past week easterly winds have prevailed, and the
im-
ports of grain have been very trivial; and with a more active
demand, the late decline in Flour, and in the lower descriptions of
foreign Wheat, has been fully recovered, and an advance on such
from last quotations, of 3d to 66 per 701 b, and of 2s per barrel on
sweet Flour, has been obtained. Oats were Id per 451 b, and Oat-
meal 2s per 24011). higher here, and in all our country markets ; in
other artieles of the trade no alteration; and in consequence of an
advance of 4s per quarter on Wheat in Mark-lane yesterday, a
similar increase, say 6d to 9d per 701 b, was demanded on all descrip
tions of foreign and British Wheat, excepting for the very finest,
which the recent decline had not so much affected ; all other arti-
cles participated a little in this advance, but the transactions were
so limited that we must consider the annexed quotations as almost
nominal. The only alteration in the duties on foreign grain this
week, is an increase of Is (id-per quarter on. Rye.
