LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET,
FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 18.
This morning's market was slenderly attended, and a pro-
portionately limited extent of business only was practicable in
any description of Wheat, the general currency of our last
being merely maintained, while in partial instances buyers had
the turn slightly in their favour.—Flour was in moderate re-
quest; to sell in any quantity rather less money should be
taken, but few holders were inclined to give way.—Oats and
Oatmeal moved off with difficulty, but at no quotable difference
of prices.—lndian Corn, ex warehouse, meets a retail inquiry
at previous rates ; there are no sales of floating cargoes reported
to-day.—Other articles withou

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET,

FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 18.

For the better descriptions of Beef the demand continues
good, but the middling and ordinary sorts do not move so
freely, and to make progress with such, a concession in price
must be made. Pork maintains the late advance, and the
stock does not accumulate. Bacon and Hams are again dearer.
We reduce our quotations for Lard is. to 2s. per cwt. ; the
sales of American continue of the most trifling character, the
small demand that has existed having been supplied with the
recent imports of Italian. The demand for Cheese is active,
and the market is quite bare of stock.

MONDAY, FEBRUARY 21.

The arrivals of Butter last week were trifling, and business
to a fair extent was transacted in fine southern brands and low
qualities, at 86. to 88s. for the former, and 725. to 80s. for the
latter. Middling and stale parcels were comparatively neglected
allhough offering at a decline of is. to 2s. per cwt. The stock
here is gradually diminishing, and the market to-day shows
great firmness at our quotations, Belfast, 86s. to 88s. ; fine
Waterford, 88s. to 90s. ; Clonmel and Wedford, 855. to 88a.
Banbridge and Coleraine, 85s. to 865.; Limerick, 80s. to 84s.
Sligo, 82s. to 85s. ; and pickled Cork seconds, 87s. to 88s. per
cwt., landed. Imported from Ireland from the 14th to the
19th instant, both inclusive, 2752 firkins, 121 kegs, 306 crocks,
241 boxes, 221 barrels, Butter; 126 bales Bacon; 31 hhds.
Hams; 2 tierces and 340 kegs lard.

LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET,

MONDAY, FEB. 21

It is worthy of remark that, though the country is in a pros-
perous condition, and the working classes more generally em.
ployed than during any of the few preceding years, the quantity
of Beef and Mutton consumed in Liverpool and its environs is
considerably less this year of 1852-3 than for some years past,
and the supply at market is becoming smaller from week to
week. On the 16th February, 1852, there were 2,276 beasts,
and 5,025 sheep, at market; the corresponding week this year
there were only 1,467 beasts, and 4,619 sheep. The supply of
stock to-day was little larger than that of last week, and
prices much the same. Best heifer beef, 51d. to 6d.; second
quality, sd. to 54d. ; inferior, 4id. to 41d.; mutton, 6id. to
',id. per lb., sinking the offal.
