arrival of Barley is good, and meets slow sale, although rather
lower prices are submitted to. In Oats and Beans no alteration

MANCHESTER CORN MARKET, JAN. 3.
Though, as usual at this season of the year, there has been no
Activity in the Corn trade during the week, considerable firm-
ness has been evinced • and in the transactions that have taken
place full prices have been obtained for every article.
The same has been tne case at Liverpool and Wakefield, and
at the former some sales of Oatmeal have been made, prin-
cipally for the supply of orders from Ireland. and a few lots of
Bonded Wheat, Flour, and Indian Corn, have been taken on
speculation. . _

To-day we may cal the market for every article steady, at
last week's prices, with but little actual business doing.

THE WOOL TRADE

(From Mr. Hance's Circular.)

During the first six months of the past year a very large
and satisfactory business was Cone in our Wool market, at
steady prices; after this period the demand began to slacken,
and during the last three months an unusual degree of staena-
tion has pervaded this branch of our trade, and a sllght reduc-
tion must be quoted in the price of almost all descriptions of
Wool, since my last year's advices.

I have again to notice a large increase In the Imports from
all quarters, except from Portugal, where the demand for the
French and other foreign markets, caused the prices to rule too
high during the greater part of the year to remunerate importers
to this country.

Notwithstanding the great increase in the Imports above no-
ticed, I do not estimate present stocks as at all excessive, and
