LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, DEC. 12.
The market has been very quiet during the last few days, without
change in prices of moment; but as there is a good choice of Cot-
ton offering, the advantage is in favour of buyers ; the sales yester
day were 3,000 bales, and to-day 2,500 bales of all kinds to the Trade

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, DEC. 10.
Since this day week, the imports of. Oats and Oatmeal, from Ire-
land—of foreign Wheat, from ports coastways, and of Flour, from
the United States, have again been to a pretty large extent, and
although the demand has not been very active, nor have the sales
been very extensive, prices last quoted have been fully supported,
and for good middling foreign Wheat for shipment to Ireland, and
also for the finest qualities of Oats and Oatmeal, a little exceeded.
Flour has experienced a more active demand. for consumption, and
it has been easier to sell than to buy superfine qualities at our
quotations; for other articles we note no alteration. The general
quality of the new Irish Wheat and Flour does not improve, and it
is very difficult to find purchasers for these articles on any reason-
able terms. Our country Corn markets of the past week have all
beerivery steady at full prices, but in Manchester, we are still under-
sold by supplies from the east coast.
There is no alteration in the duties on Grain, from foreign ports
since Friday last. The speculative demand for superfine sweet
Flour, in bond, has continued at 30s 6d to 31s 6d, and it is now
chiefly held at 325, in bond. -
At this day's market there was only a moderate demand for every
article in the trade ; some parcels of good middling qualities of
foreign Wheat, and of fine Oats and Oatmeal, found sales at a trivial
advance on last quotations, and some large. parcels of superfine
sweet United States Flour, in bond, were sold at SBt ! per barrel,
and in small quantities for export, at 325, but little or no alteration
can be made in our general quotations, and the transactions were
altogether to a very limited extent.

made during the week, the price did not transpire, and the market
is not all affected thereby. Prime Belfast we quote 92s to 935, Kil-
kenny and Carlow bearing brands of good repute 90s to 93s.Cork
Pickled Butter offering at ass, and very few transactions occurring.
—The Beef and Pork trade is dull, and in Bacon there is but little
doing.
