CORN MARKETS.

MANCHESTER, MARcH s.—Our market to-day was thinly
attended, and has closed without any improvement in the pre-
vious tone of feeling. The few transactions which occurred
were on terms decidedly in favour of the purchaser; but their
extreme paucity, both in numbers and amount, does not justify
us in altering our quotations, which may, therefore, be con-
sidered almost nominal.

PRESTON, MARCH s.—The show of English Wheat at our
Corn Exchange this morning was not large, and it was all
cleared at the rates of this day se'nnight. Scotch neglected.
Foreign steady. Very little doing in Flour, and 6d. per pack
lower. Beans in some instances rather higher, but we do not
change our quotations. The demand for Oatmeal has not im-
proved; choice qualities have maintained late rates, but all
other descriptions have been offered freely without effect, at a
reduction of 3d. to 6d. per load.
WAKEFIELD, MARC!! 4.—We continue to receive short
supplies. The trade to-day is very inanimate, and of a mere
retail character; Wheat is held at late prices. Barley the turn
easier. Beans, if in good condition, fully as dear. No change
in the value of Oats and Shelling.

WISBECH, MARCH s.—We hare a return of mild weather
today, and the farmers accede to a reduction of is. per qr. on
Wheat. Beans and Oats are also the turn cheaper.
NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, MARCH s.—At our market
this morning, we had a pretty good supply of Wheat from the
growers, but paying nothing fresh in from the coast, fresh.
thrashed parcels were taken off rather freely at fully the rates
of this day se'nnight, whilst in other sorts little was done,
holders being unwilling to make the slightest concession. In
Flour transactions were limited, dealers generally holding off

for the anticipated supplies, which may be shortly expected,
the wind having now become fair. Rye is wanted. Malting
Barley was held firmly, but buyers did not operate freely, the
quality on show not being approved of. In Malt little stirring.
Beans and Pease steadily maintain their value. With Oats we
were shortly supplied by our farmers, whilst from the North
the arrivals are trifling, nevertheless, the trade ruled flat, with
only a very limited business passing,
CORK, MARCH s.—The weather is most favourable for get-
ting in spring crops and potatoes. Foreign imports consist of
1,000 quarters Wheat, and 6,050 quarters Indian Corn. Influ-
enced by the dull tone of the advices, and the expected large
supply of breadstuffs, the Corn trade throughout the week has
been lifeless. Foreign Wheat neglected. Indian Corn in better
consumptive demand, and 2s. 6d. per ton decline, buyers not
going beyond actual want.
DUBLIN, MARCH 4.—We have again to report a very dull
market at our Coin Exchange to-day ;we do not alter our quo-
tations of last Tuesday, but the general tendency of prices was
in favour of the buyer. _ . _
