WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET, JUNE 18.
In consequence of contrary winds our arrivals are but small;
millars purchase Wheat cautiously, yet an advance of Is to 2s
per quarter is established. The Barley season may be considered
over. Oats and Shelling do not vary in price, and the business
passing in them is trifling. Beans rather more inquired tor, but
these with other articles we quote as last week. Wheat, 2898;
Barley, 8; Beans, 327; Oats, 213; Shelling, 220; Tares, 45.

Peas ; but duties have been paid upon only 440 quarters of Wheat,
113 quarters of Beans, and 130 barrels of Flour. With inadequate
influx of supply and a tolerable demand, we have to quote higher
prices for most articles of the trade. los has been paid for fine
Rostock Wheat, 95 8d togs lOd for good Baltic red, and es 9d to es
for Odessa, being 3d per bushel above the rates obtainable at the

off to country buyers, and at yesterday's market there were few
offering hest meaning held at 3s Id per 451bs. Oatmeal has still
inet a slow sale, and no material change has occurred in its value

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET,.JJNM 18.
The sales of Cotton to-day are 3,000 to 3,500 bales.
We have had a fair extent of business doing in Cotton
during the whole of the past week, and particularly during
the last three days.

- -
We have noticed a considerable improvement in the demand
from the trade.

We, however, do not make any alteration in our quo-
tations for any descriptions of Cotton, which remain
exactly as they were on Friday last, though the market
exhibits a decidedly more healthy and firm appearance.
The total sales of the week amount to 23,100 bags, of
which, speculators have purchased 2,130 bales, and export-
ers SOO bales ; the rest is to the trade.

COTTON MARKET, JoNis 21.
The revic ed demand noticed in our Circular of Friday has con-
tinued throughout Saturday and to-day, causing a fair extent of
business to be done, amounting together to 8005 bales, at last
week's prices, all to the trade, which has a more healthy appear -
ance. The import since Friday has been exceedingly heavy, and
the stock of Cotton in this port at the end of this week will be
heavier by many thousand bales than at any former period, not.
withstanding an improved trade will require the surplus, and thus
a check is given to any great advance in prices, a circumstance to
which the Cotton market is very liable after so prolonged a period
of quietness and relaxation of demand.
