LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, NI %atm 26

There has been a fleeting gleam of brightne'ss in our Butter
market during the last day or two, prices having become steady in
consequence of the severity of the weather. Belfast Butter we
quote 100 s to Ioss ; Coleraine and Ballymoney gds to gss ; Kilken-
ny and Carlow 9-Is to 104 s; Newry 90s to 94s ; Derry 908 to loos.
Pickled Butter is very dull at 96s to 975. Beef has advanced fully
5s per tee. and Pork held for more money. The holders of Bacon
ask Is per cwt. higher rates, and they are partially acceded to..

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, MARcx 24.
(From the Circular of Messrs. James Scott and Son.)
Although the winds have been only partially favourable since
Tuesday last, the arrivals of Grain, Flour, and Oatmeal, from Ire.
land, coastways, and from foreign ports, have been lather con-
siderablel; and, added to those of the preceding week, have greatly
exceeded the demand. Sales have been effected only to a very
moderate extent of Wheat, at a decline of about 2d to 3d per 7016 ;
of Oats at id told per 431 b. ; of all other Grain, and of Flour and
Oatmeal, at a small reduction, but hardly sufficient to alter last
quotations.

n The duty on Wheat from foreign ports has receded to 20s 13(1 per
quarter, on Flour to las Sd per barrel, and on Beans to gs 6d per
quarter since Friday last ; on other Grain there is no alteration ;
some parcels of American Flour in bond here, and on the passage,
have found purchasers at 30s, and for export at 305 6d per barrel ;
Oats also in bond for export at 38 pd to 4s ad per 451 b.
The weather has continued very favourable for all agricultural
operations: very dry, but perhaps rather too severely cold. We
have had but little or no rain in this district during the last six weeks.
At this day's market there was a fair attendance, and sales of
Grain effected to a moderate extent, at about the decline above
mentioned ; and for Flour in bond and free, and for Oatmeal, about
(id decline was submitted to.
