LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, AUGUST 30.

The sales yesterday were 3000 bags. and the same amount of
business has been done again to-day. Prices are without change;
and the market is steady.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, AUGUST 28.
Since Tuesday last the weather has been Upon the whole un-
favourable for the crops of Grain, and the remnant of the nay
crop has been securing in very indifferent order ;—for although on
sonic of the forenoons of the past week there has been a little sun-
shine, it has generally rained heavily some part of the twenty-four
hours ;—Saturday was a very bad day, and it has continued un.
seasonably cold, that the progress of the crops towards maturity
—particularly of Wheat, has been much retarded ; and although
as in every other season, in some few favourable situations, some
small fields of Barley and Oats and even of early Wheat are now
nearly ripe, we fear it will be the middle of September before 11 t,
can report Harvest as general in this and the Northern Districts ;
in the Southern Counties there has been a recurrence of wet
weather, which must be .particularly injurious there, as they are
much more forward than we are here :—influenced as our markets
are at this critical period, not only by every change of weather
here. hut also by the fluctuations in London, the moat capricious
changes occur natty ; the depression of our last Tuesday's market
here was a little recovered at our Friday's market, owing to a small
improvement in Mark-lane, and sales to a pretty considerable ex-
tent were made, chiefly of fine fresh Foreign Wheat in bond here,
or on the passage hither, or to be delivered here free of duty next
Friday, at an advance of 3d to 4d per 701 h, whilst in the prospect
now almost certain of the release of all bonded Wheat and Flour
generally in a week or two, the late high rates of British and Irish
%'heat receded 6d to 8d per 701 b ; for all other kinds of Grain, Flour
and Oatmeal there was a very limited demand, and last quotations
barely supported ; in the Yorkshire markets of the past week, and
in Manchester on Saturday, a similar depression occurred. The
duty on Wheat from Foreign Ports has this week, as anticipated,
been reducedl3s per qr. on Flour Is 92d per brl. on Oats and Beans
Is 6d per qr. ; and on Friday next there will he a further reduction
of 4s per qr. on Wheat, and 2a 5d per brl on Flour ;—the imports
of Wheat from Foreign Ports are weekly increasing, and in the
prospect of almost immediate release for home use at a duty of
2s 10,1, or even at the lowest duty of 2s 10d, or even at the lowest
duty of Is per qr the value thereof is now nearly the same as free
Wheat, less the duty, and considerable sales have recently been
effected at prices in proportion ; of Oats in bond there have been
a few sales made for export, but in all other Grain and in Flour in
nond very little has recently been done, and prices are quoted al-
most nominally. Since Saturday night the weather has become
more genially warm and seasonable, and so continues to-day, in
consequence of which, and of the decline in all free Grain yester-
day in Maitt-lane, we have at this day's market experienced a very
limited demand for free Wheat, at fully the decline above-noted ;
—Flour was likewise in very little request at a decline of 3s to 4s
per 280th, and Oats were offered 2d to 3d per 451 b, and Oatmeal is
to Is Gil per 2401 b lower; the finest white Foreign Wheat was
offered to he delivered free next Friday at lOs 6,1 to Ils, and red at
lOs to 10s 6d per 701 b, and very little sold ;—the millers and dealers
generally abstaining from increasing their very small stocks until
the result of the complete release of Foreign Wheat and Flour he
ascertained.—Since the close of our market the sky has again as-
sumed a very threatening and unsettled appearance, and it 'rains
very heavily.

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, AUG. 30.

The Butter market is very dull,—very dull indeed.—Holders,
however, give way to a reduction in price with en indifferent
grace.—vainly hoping for a reaction,—which candidly we do not
at all look for. With the immensely superabundant make in Ire-
land and the Continent, a serious decline must take place before
important transactions can be looked for. Belfast Butter Ist qua-
lity we quote 88s to 90s. Respectable South of Ireland brands 88s.
Banbridge, public inspection. 86s; private 80s to 82s. Beef and
Pork are so completely in the hands of " the trade" that prices
are kept very high. Bacon very steady—any thing very fine
worth 53s to 548. Hams of fine cut, cure and quality bring GGs to
68s.

LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, AUG 27.
We have had a tolerably large supply of Beasts at market to-day,
and the quality generally middling. The best Beef was in brisk
demand, and those remaining unsold, which were but few, were of
an ordinary quality. The supply of Sheep and Lambs has been
rattier smaller than for several weeks past, and all have been prin-
cipally sold up. saving a very few of an inferior sort. Good Beef
readily sold at 6d, varying from that price down to 5d per lb. Good
Wether Mutton may be quoted at 6fd per lb, middling Gd. inferior
q tality and Ewes at a shade less. Lamb at about from 6d to 61d
per 11. i. Number of Cattle at market :—Beasts 1430, Sheep and
Lambs 8517.

LONDON CORN EXCHANGE, Ave. 29.
The arrivals of all kinds of British Grain fresh up for to-day's
market were moderate, but of Foreign Wheat large. The few
samples of free Wheat sold slowly at Monday's prices, and there
was little disposition evinced to purchase bonded, although offered
at lower prices. In Flour there was very little business doing. and
prices unaltered. The transactions in Barley, Beans and Peas;
were also on a very limited scale, and prices did not vary. We
had a large show of English and Irish Oats left over from last
market day, the sales were with difficulty effected at the reduction
noticed by us on Monday. We have had warm weather since
Saturday, but the wind to-day has veered round to the north, and
it is rather cold.
