LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, APRIL 1.

The sales on Thursday last were 4000 bags ' • Friday 4500 ; Satur-
day 3500 ; Monday 2500 ; Tuesday 7000: and to-day 7000. There
has been a steady demand from the trade since last week. Ex-
porters, also, have been ceusiderable purchasers Prices of all
descriptions remain without alteration.

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, APRIL 2.
The Butter market continues in an extremely dull state and
prices entirely nominal. A continuance of the favourable weather
which we now experience will cause consumers to look for a serious
declension in prices. New Grass Butter which is shortly expected
to make its appearance, will probably open at Is per lb. and the first
arrivals will doubtless sell readily.—The high rates noticed in our
last for Beef are well supported, and the demand both for this article
and Pork is fair.—There is not any alteration in the value of Bacon.

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, Mancu 31.
(From the Circular of Messrs. James Scott and Son.)
Since Tuesday last the imports of Grain, Flour, and Oatmeal,
from Ireland, coastways, and from foreign ports, have been to a
moderate extent, but fully equal to our very limited demand for
every article in the corn trade, and prices last quoted have been
barely supported. In Manchester, on Saturday, some very large
parcels of French Beans found sales at about 42s per quarter of
4801bs. but there was very little demand for any other article from
this port.
The duty on Wheat tram foreign ports has decreased 2s per
quarter, and is, since Friday last, 18s 8d per quarter, and on Flour
lis lid per brl. it had also decreased is 6d per quarter on Oats and
Peas ; and on Wheat and Flour, from British colonies, it is now
at the lowest duty, 6d per quarter, and 314 per barrel. It is very
likely that on this day fortnight we may state a further decline of
2s per quarter in the duty on Wheat. Several parcels of Flour in
bond have found sales during the past week at 2gs to 29s 6d per
barrel ; but the holders are now rather more firm, and it is easier
to sell than to buy at 26s 6d ; in bonded Grain we can note no
alteration, prices are in proportion to the duties.
The weather has continued very favourable for all agricultural
operations, now, however, too cold and dry, little or no rain having
fallen throughout this district for nearly two months.
At this day's market there was a fair attendance, and sales to a
limited extent were effected of almost every article in the trade
at about the prices of this day week.
