CORN EXCHANGE, MARCH 2.

Except of Oats and Oatmeal to a moderate extent, we have
been scantily supplied with produce Coastwise and from Ire-
land since Monday last ; of the Foreign'Wheat noted below,
2,000 quarters are from Leghorn, 870 quarters from Ostend ;
the Beans chiefly from Egypt; from the United States we have
not a single fresh arrival, and the Canada shipments up to the
close of the season are all to hand some time since. The Me-
diterranean supplies of Wheat and Indian Corn are also sup-
posed to be nearly completed for the present, few now making
their appearance at Cork and Falmouth, whence the ships have
mostly sailed for their ultimate destination.
The English markets again show more firmness, with rather
an enhanced value for Wheat in several, which has slightly im-
proved the tone of the trade here the past two days, and upon
a moderate consumptive demand, with a few speculative trans-
actions, prices have been very firmly supported. Indian corn
has also continued in fair request for Ireland, and this market
will draw more attention from buyers, as the supplies direct
into Irish ports are found to decrease.
At our Market to-day, the trade relative to most kinds of
Wheat opened with a better feeling on the part of holders, and
in the course of the morning sales, chiefly of Foreign, were
effected upon a moderate scale to consumers at the full rates
Tuesday; after which, the less sanguine account received I.
telegraph from Mark Lane tended rather to check theproceed_
ings of buyers, and business closed somewhat more calmly
than it commenced.—Prime selections of English and Irish
Flour were rather more saleable, and good brands of Ameri-
can in improved request, on the full terms last noted.
Barley and Malt continued to meet a limited demand at late
prices; Beans and Pease, at the same time, moving gradually,
without further change in value.—Oats and Oatmeal, in the
absence of any material inquiry from country dealers, merely
sustained our last quotations.
Indian corn being still in active request for Ireland, further
considerable operations were repeated to-day, and advance of
6d per qr, readily acquired; corn Meal fully maintaining our
last currency.

now than there has been for the last twelve months. Most of
the manufacturers are engaged on orders, which appear to be
given out with judgment aud foresight. There is not much
speculation, and hence the business done may be fairly consi-
dered of a healthful character. Owing to the rise in the price
of wool, the prices of cloths have also advanced. •
BRADFORD.—There is less doing in all kinds of combing
wools, which may be traced to the spinners being in better
stock and staplers seeking higher prices. Noils and brokes are
ready sale at firm prices. Yarns.—The contracts entered into
for March are at very firm prices, the spinners being invariably
engaged, and not disposed to accept fresh orders. Pieces.—

HALlFAX.—Lastings and damasks were in good demand in
our Piece Hall on Saturday, but there has been scarcely as
much business done as there was last week. The goods dis-
posed of have realized higher rates, though not so high as to
cover the increased cost of production. In Yarns, we have no
change to report except that the spinners are still firmer in
their demand for improved rates. There is less doing in long
wool, and prices, though firm, remain without alteration. There
is a moderate inquiry for short wool, but the advanced rates are
with difficulty obtained.

HUDDERSiIELD.—There has been a brisk market this week,
and all the desirable goods suitable for the spring trade were
early picked up in the hall. Prices are firm : and in the present
state of the wool market, will have a tendency upward.
