CORN,

LIVERPOOL, Mac 14.—The market this morning
was thinly attended, and no symptoms of. a continuance
of operations being apparent, the trade again relapsed into
inactivity. Both wlteat and flour were much neglected by
country dealers, •and the speculative disposition to invest
in the latter article having subsided for the time, we had
consequently more pressure of stock, and allbrands nearly
lost the improvement realized in the interval from Tuesday
last, wlig.st Wheats may be generally quoted 2d to 3d per
bushel 'under the rates of that day. Barley nominally
unchanged. .Beans Is per quarter lower, with only a
a retail inquiry. Fine .eats scarce, and maintain our late
currency. -In oatmeal little doing. Indian corn difficult
of sale, :anduffered -03 d to is per quarter cheaper.

MANCHESTER, Heaton 10.—Our matScet to-day was
by !no means active. Wheat !was offered at a decline of
6d per bushel, and flour.2s per sack and barrel respectively.;
but at these reduced rates less anxiety than of late was
shown to effect sales. Oatmeal receded .in value is per
load, and beans and peas each 2s per quarter. In other
articles there was very little alteration.

PRESTON, MARCII 18.—We have again to note a
smalbeupply of English.wheat at our Corn Exchange, but
the dealers being indisposed to purchase, a clearance could
not be effected without submitting to an abatement of 2s
per iwindle. Irish, Scotch, and foreign neglected, the two
former offered at 6d per bushel, and the latter at 6d to 10d
below last currency. English flour about 2s per pack, and
Ameran full 2s per barrel cheaper. Oats cffered in-
effectAtally at a redaction :of ld per bushel. Oatmeal
nea.rlTnnsaleable at reduced quotations of is to 2s per
load. All other articles sell slowly at lower rates.
WAKEFIELD, Menet' 17.—The arrivals of wheat
during the week amount !Go 72,000 quarters. At our
market to-day millers operated on the most limited scale,
' and verylittle business was done in wheat at 3s to 4s per
quarter reduction from last Friday. Barley was ls to 2s
per quarter; oats, ld per stone • shelling, 2s per load;
and beans as per quarter lower. Other articles as before.
WISBECH, 3lAncn 18.—We have had quite a nominal
kind of market here to-day, the quantity of samples
offering was small, and farmers not being willing to
submit to a-reduction great enough to induce merchants to
buy, there wss scarcely any business done.
NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, IdAnen 18. —At our
market this morning we had again asmall supply of wheat
from the country, which sold for fully 3s per quarter less
money than on Saturday last. In south country an
ci
-foreign a similar reduction may be noted, but few saki
were effected. - A fair supply of barley, which must be
quoted is per qr. cheaper. Oats in good supply and fully
.as dear. Flour a heavy sale at a reduction of 2s per sack.

,CORK, Manes 18.—Our market, participating in the
general depression, is very bare of business. Some holders
ofer at much below late prices, and so obtain a moderate
die for consumption. Foreign wheat declined 3s per
barrel, !lour 2s tid per sack, and Indian corn 10s to 15s
per ton.

MARo 17.—We have again to note an
extremely depressed market at our Corn Exchange to-day.
In the absence of demand we can scarcely report any but
retail quotations; wheat, however, was fully 2s, and the
iniddlior, qualities of oats and barley 6d lower than on
Tuesday. Indian corn scarcely saleable, even at the late
reduction,.
