CORN.

LIVERPOOL, FRB. 28.—There was but a meagre
attendance at this day's market, and scarcely any actual
buyers : holders of wheat and flour, in particular, mani-
fested a desire to realise, and would have met demand by
a free concession of decline from onr last quotations; in
the almost total suspension of business, except of the
most retail character, we can, therefore, only quote the
redUction at which purchases could have been readily
made, viz.: on wheat 3d to 4d per bushel ; flour is Gd to
2s per barrel ; barley ld to 2d per bushel ; beans is ;
Indian corn is Gd to 2s per qr. ; oats, all but the best
heavy quality, ld per bushel; oatmeal is per load.

MANCHESTER, MA RCII 2.—Our market to-day is
exceedingly inactive. Similar prices to those of last
Thursday are asked for wheat and flour, but sales cannot
be made without submitting to a slight abatement. There
is little or no inquiry for other articles ; prices are there-
fore nominally the same as on this day se'nnight.

PRESTON, BIARCII 4.—Owing to the farmers being
engaged in their out door occupations, the supply of
English wheat at our Corn Exchange this morning was
trifling, yet it met a dragging sale at the currency of this
day se'nnight. Irish and Scotch in limited request and
the turn cheaper. The same may be said of foreign.
Flour moved slowly at an abatement of 6d per pack. Oats
very plentiful, and nearly unsaleable, though nominally
rather lower. Oatmeal continues neglected at a further
reduction in value of 6d per load. Other articles rather
easier to buy.

WAKEFIELD, MAR= 3.—The trade has been very
inactive, and we quote all descriptions of wheat fully is
per quarter lower. Fine barley retained its value, but
inferior sold slowly. Oats and shelling were rather lower.
Beans fully
.1s per quarter cheaper. Other articles as
before.—Arrivals : Wheat, 8,940; barley, 1,600.

WISBECH, MARCIE 4. There has been a slack
demand for wheat, at a reduction of 2s to 3s per quarter,
the farmer preferring to hold, therefore but little business
was done. Oats and beans much the same as last week ;
all together a dull market.
NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, MAncit 4.--Our farmers
brought a fair supply of wheat to market this morning,
which sold for from is to 2s per quarter less than the
prices of this day week. In south country and foreign
little doing, and where sales were made a similar reduction
had to be submitted to. Barley in tolerable supply, and
sold at fully the rates of last Satuay. No chae in the
value of oats. Flour a dull sale ardt
a reduction ofngls to 2s
per sack.
CORK, MARCII 4.—The improved tone of our market
noted last week is entirely lost. Flour is the turn cheaper;
wheat declined is to 2s per bane], and Indian corn is
neglected. The forced sales of wheat by some in this
market destroy confidence, and induce others to go in fir
the fall.
DUBLIN, 111suca 3.—We had rather a dull market
to-day for every description of grain, except the better
quality of oats, which met a brisk demand. We do not
alter our quotations of Tuesday, but to-day they only
represent few and retail transactions. Indian corn difficult
of sale, though offered at a reduction of is per quarter.
