DUBLIN CORN MARKET. SEPT. 14.
There was a fair demand for all descriptions of new grain at
market to-day, and Tuesday's currencies were fully main-
tained. Indian Corn held more firmly, and in the few retail
transactions which occurred, a small advance was realized.

BELFAST CORN MARKET, SEPT. 14.
Arrivals, this week, consist of three cargoes Indian Corn,
two of Rye, one of Wheat, and one of Barley, from abroad; and
two small cargoes of Flour, and one of Wheat, coastwise. Our
home supplies are limited, and meet with a fair demand. New
Wheat, 7s. to Ss. Cd. ; and new Oats, ss. to 6s. per cwt. of
1121b5., as in quality. Wheat and Flour a slow sale, and our
quotations nominally the same as last week. There has been
rather more inquiry for Indian Corn, on speculation, by parties
for the purpose of holding over; but buyers would not meet
holders who are firm at £6 7s. 6d. to 6 10s. for good yellow ;
white, .t'6 10s. to L 0 15s. per ton—but little or none here. The
reports respecting the potatoes are more unfavourable this
week, to which, in a great measure, may be attributed the in-
creased inquire for Indian Corn.

CORK CORN MARKET, SEPT. 15.
Without any spe^ulative feeling having been manifested in
any department of the Corn trade, all kinds of native produce
have met with a steady sale : no variation has occurred in
prices calling for particular notice. Very few transactions are
reported in Foreign Wheat : the views of holders are beyond
what the millers could afford to pay, taking as a guide the rela-
tive low prices of Flour, and the native of this year's growth
being somewhat improved in condition and freely offered at
low rates, interferes materially with the sale of imported
samples: still small parcels of prime Black Sea and Mediter-
ranean qualities are taken for mixing purposes. Complaints
are very general about here of the acreable yield of this crop,
but further experience is necessary before arriving at definite
conclusions on the subject. In Flour a restricted business only
is passing, and prices have a downward tendency. Oats are
in brisk demand both by shippers and distillers: Barley also is
in steady request. For Indian Corn the inquiry has nearly
subsided, at least by the dealers and millers: speculators offer
low rates, and some parcels have been placed during the week
to hold over : a large arrival of this Grain has come into
Queenstown since the Bth instant. Doubtless many of these
vessels will be ordered on to other ports ; and extensive
arrangements are making by many of our merchants to ware-
house several cargoes here for account of the importers.

SALFORD CATTLE MARKET, SEPT. 12.
We had a very large show of stock to-day and also a large
attendance. Though the demand was good, still it had no effect
in the prices of either Beef or Mutton, and the value of each
remains unchanged. Beef, sd. to sad. ; Mutton, sd. to sid.
per lb.

LEEDS FORTNIGHT CATTLE FAIR, SEPT. 12.
The show of Beasts and Sheep to-day was an average one.
The beasts were generally of good quality, and the attendance
of buyers was large. Thel3pasts were chiefly from the North
and a few from Liverpool. There were about 30 foreign cattle,
and nearly all were sold up. The top price for home-fed beasts
were 6s. Bd. down to 65., and as low as ss. gd. ; and for foreign
ss. 6d. to 6s. per st. of 161 b. A good market for Sheep and
Lambs, and nearly all were sold in the early part of the day, at
sd. to 51d. per lb.

DUBLIN CATTLE MARKET. SEPT. 13.
Our market was again well attended, but somewhat smaller
than that of this day week. Somewhat brisker buying was had
for prime meat, but inferior lots remained unsold till late in
the day. Sheep, sinking offal, 4d. to sd. per lb. ; Veal, 4id. to
sd. ; Lambs, 145., 225-, to Vs. each ; Beef in sink, 355. to 40s. ;
best 41s. to 425. ; good pork, 3fis. to 40e.

STATE OF TRADE.

MA NCH ESTER.—The market has been without the slightest
animation during the present week, and the dulness which was
observable last week has existed in a still greater degree this,
inducing somewhat of a gloomy feeling both amongst buyers
and sellers. Prices show a more decidedly downward ten-
dency, both as regards cloth and yarn; there are, however,
exceptional cases, but in most instances, some reduction may
be obtained from the rates previously required. The export
demand in the yarn market has continued dull for ail descrip-
tions. The same causes we have before described, viz., the
low prices obtainable abroad, in comparison with the present
rates here, still prevails, and in consequence no orders of mo-
ment are in band, the only transactions being for a few de-
scriptions as assortments. For India there is just as little
doing, and the market orders for the Mediterranean are simi-
larly circumscribed; although prices are well maintained;
under these circumstances, buyers have the turn decidedly in
their favour. For the home trade there is less doing, and ma-
nufacturers are more sparing in their purchases, notwith-
standing that :they are enabled to effect them at lower rates.
The cloth market, under a continued moderation in inquiry
and a more restricted demand, sympathises with the general
dulness and exhibits less firmness. Most descriptions of
goods are easier to buy, although a number of houses are yet
working to order.
LEEDS.—Quick demand for Woollen goods, both for the
home and the foreign market, continues to be the order of the
day. Prices remain firm, and stocks are comparatively low.
HUDDERSFIELD. -Our public market was well attended on
Tuesday, and a large amount of business is doing in the troa-
serings, waistcoatings, and other staple manufactures of this
town and district.
HA LI FAX.—AII branches of the Worsted trade are active,
and goods, yarns, and wools sell readily at late prices.
BRAD FORD.—WOOL.—The difficulty of purchasing Wool in
the country to meet the prices current here, has given the sta-
plers confidence in holding for prices a shade higher, and
during the week a limited business has been done at improved
prices. YARNS.—There is nothing for remark worthy of note
since our last, whether as regards demand or prices. PIECES.
—The quantity of goods coming to market is reduced, owing
to the feasts, cheap trips, and, what is to be lamented, the
great sickness among the working classes, &c.. The number
of looms idle on that account, during the last fortnight, has
been considerable. The demand continues as active as ever,
and the diminished production is attended with disappointment
in the execution of orders.
NoraiNou A m.—The hosiery trade in all branches, with only
one exception, is in a fair and healthy condition. The excepted
case is that of silk gloves, which is much depressed, but the
season of the year is decidedly against them. The bobbin net
trade is this week very dull, most of the foreign houses having
completed their goods for Leipsic fair, which commences on
the Ist October. It is at this fair that the lace principally finds
a vent for the Russian dominions. There is a general opinion
that an improvement to some extent will take place in the lace
tradeat the latter end of next month, and in January for ho-
siery. The rapid improvement in the manufacture of flax
thread will have a very beneficial effectonthe tradeof England,
Holland, Belgium, West Germany, and Northern France.
Large fortunes have been amassed by the manufacturers in
consequence of their superiority in preparing that material.
LEICESTER.—There having been buyers in the town from
various districts has caused business to be active amongst the
manufacturers. It is also expecteil that a fair autumn trade
will be doing for some time to come. Prices of material are
firmly maintained. The Wrought hose branch have obtained
another advance of 3d. per dozen, a step to which we believe
there was no opposition. This affords a gratifying proof of the
improved state of trade in Leicester since 184 s, and a general
impression prevails that it will continue at present.
