CORN

'LIVERPOOL, MAX s.—This morning's market was
well attended, many of the buyers coming from a consi-
derable distance. In wheat there was a good steady trade
with country Reis chiefly ; for all-fine qualities, which
are scarce,` the full rates of Tuesday were paid, and had
more inquiries than of late for common descriptions. The
sales offlour were very extensive, and for various direc-
tions
in the interior as well as for shipment, the market
closing generally firmer at the quotations of our last.
Barley scarcely maintains Tuesday's rates. Beans sell I
more freely at a Slight reduction. Oats rather easier, upon
a retail demand. Oatmeal held for more money, being in
fair request for the country, with some further inquiry for
export; prime parcels are difficult of selection, at an
advance of 6d. per 'load. Indian corn met a large Irish
demand; the market was nearly cleared of what was
offering• Within the range of our quotations of Tuesday, to
which the valuebas ag,air, improved

MANCHESTER, MAT 4.—Only a moderate extent of
business was transacted at our market to-day. The best
qualities of wheat being scarce fetched 2d to 3d perbushel
more money ; but other kinds, on the contrary, were
rather lower. • English flour was offered at a reduction of
is per sack, and American at 6d per barrel. Oats and
oatmeal were rather easier to buy ; beans quite as dear,
and very scarce ; and other articles as last advised.
PRESTON, MAT 6.—At our Corn Exchange to-day,
English wheat met a dragging sale at last week's rates.
Beans as before. Scarcely any demand for foreign wheat,
and no change in flour. Beans and oats very little sought
after. The demand for Irish oatmeal is quite of a retail
character, but this article is generally held for late prices.
Indian meal is per load lower. Other articles unchanged.

. -
WAKEFIELD, MAY s.—There was a fair show of
wheat, but the transactions were limited, buyers operating
merely for immediate wants. Fine -fresh qualities were
the same in value as last week; common descriptions
fully is per qr. lower. Barley, if fresh, was fully as dear ;
other sorts sold slowly at barely former terns. No altera-
tion in oats, shelling, or beans.—Arrivals Wheat, 6,017
quarterk.
NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, MAY 6.—We had a fair
supply of wheat from the growers this morning, which
was cleared off at prices from 1s to 2s per qr. lower than
those of this day week. The arrivals from- the coast and
abroad have been liberal, and a reduction of about is per
qr. may be noted for both kinds. Barley in small supply,
grinding sorts may be quoted is per qr. dearer, whilst'
malting sells for fully late prices. Oats in fair supply,
and 6d to is per qr. dearer. Flour continues a slow sale
at a reduction of is per sack.
SVISBECH, MAY 6.--We have really so little doing at
this market iu consequence of the shortness of quantity,
that there is some difficulty in quoting the real state of
the trade, mid this will now be the case until after harvest.
Our prices for wheat are yet abOve all consuming markets,
and therefore merchants don't care to buy, Whilst millers
nearly take off the weekly supply. Best samples is and
inferior 2s per qr. cheaper to-day. Oats and beans sell on
fully as good terms.
CORK, MAY 6.—The sales of flour were very limited
this. week, thouigh generally offered at a reduction of 6d
per cwt. Foreign wheat has a fair consumptive demand,
holders making slight concessions to effect sales. Indian
corn goes slowly into use ; prices have receded 10s per ton.
DUBLIN, MAY s.—There was a small supply of home
grown grain at our Corn Exchange to-day, except of oats,
which was large. 'The- market was generally dull, wheat
and barley scarcely supported the prices of Tuesday, oats
were fully fid lower, and a large quantity remained unsold.
Scarcely anything doing in Indian corn.
