LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, MARCH 19

The market was very steady on Saturday and Monday, when a
good deal was done on speculation ; but the flat accounts received
from Manchester on Tuesday, and the packet from America, which
arrived on that morning, having brought no intelligence of con-
sequence in addition to previous advices, caused a considerable
suspension of demand, and the limifed sales of the last four days
are at a reduction of id to id per lb for the low to fair qualities of
American; Surat is also rather lower, whilst other descriptions
remain as before quoted. 8550 American and 700 Surat hake been
taken on speculation.

MONDAY EVENING

The same dull, inanimate feeling, noticed last week, continues
to characterize our market ; though as to prices we are decidedly
firm, at the decline of id p lb from the highest point, as stated
last Friday. Holders have made a stand, and are satisfied not to
press their stocks on the market, merely selling in small parcels to
meet the demand. On Saturday 1500 to 2000 hales were sold, 500
of them to a speculator, and to-day we estimate the total amount
at 2500 to 3000 bales, chiefly in Arnelican descriptions, from tiid to

LIVERPOOL CORN

MARKET,

MARCH 20,

The imports of Grain, &c. from Ireland, since this day se'nnight,
have continued light, but from the English coast there are reported
21,900 quarters of Wheat, 3,900 quarters of Barley, 3,991 quarters
of Beans, and 5,200 quarters of Malt. The foreign arrivals include
1,330 quarters of Wheat, 740 quarters of Oats, 3,150 quarters of
Beans, and 500 harrels of Flour, all of which, under the present
state of the duties,.. will, doubtless, he placed in bond. From
British America we have received 3,100 barrels of Flour. Through-
out the week the trade, generally, has ruled dull; at yesterday's
market we had scarcely any -country buyers in attendance, and, the
largest supplies of Wheat already noticed (consisting chiefly of free
foreign brought round from London) including our town millers to
confine their purchases within the narrowest limits their necessities
would permit, few sales occurred, though holders, generally, were
offering their samples at a decline cf per 7elos. Flour has
undergone no change in value, but has, latterly, sold less freely
than at the beginning of the week; a remark that may be equally
well applied to Oatmeal. Oats have not met any extension of de-
mand, but have still been in so small supply that they have
maintained full prices, English malting Barley must he noted id

per quarter cheaper. Beans have barely maintained their previous
value. Peas as last quoted. 1,000 garters of Bannato Wheat, of
middling quality, have changed hands, in bond, at as 6d per 701b5.,
and 2,000 barrels of United States Flour have been sold to arrive at
24s 3d to 24s 6d per barrel.
