LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, MARCH 19.
We have had a large supply of Beasts at market to-day,.but the
quality has been generally but middling, and the demand has been
principally confined to Beef'of good quality. The supply of Sheep has
also been large for the time of the rear. and the buyers numerous, but
we cannot note any alteration in prices from our last week's quotation.
Good Beef may be quoted at 6d ; second quality and ordinary, stl per
lb. Good Wether 111 utton was easily sold at 7(1; middling, 61d inferior
quality, 61d per lb,•and pretty well all sold up ; but there were many
large and rough Bersts left unsold, besides a great number which had
arrived at the close of the market.---Number .Beasts, 13e9 ; Sheep
3965.

LONDON COLONIAL MA.Ri(ET, MARCH 20.
SUGAR.—This afternoon importers generally submitted to a further
reduction on Friday's prices of Is, but still there was again very little
business doing, both grocers and refiners coming forward reluctantly,
and the purchases do not exceed 200' hhds-and tea ; 55s to 50s accepted
for strong brown St. Kitts for refining, and 58s for middling yeltow
Tobago ; several of the cargoes lately arrived from Demerara and Ber-
bice were on show.
FOR'EIGH.—The good strong description* of Ilavana and Brazil con.
tinue to be much wanted to supply immediate orders, and would coni
mand fair market rates, but the supply being very short, and high
prices demanded, still checks business.
MOLASSES.—For West India there is at present •no +lnland, and
parcels are ofierin,g at 2s decline, but without meeting with buyers.
COFFEE.—This afternoon there was no public sale of any kind, and
privately there is no demand for either East or West India. Foreign
is more inquired after, and a floating cargo of 2004 Rio has been sold
at 41s per cwt.
Rum, lis,ANov and HOLLANDS.—.-We have still to report an active
demand for all descriptions of Rum ; prices have further improved,
and now rate 'ld per gallon above those of this day week. For
Geneva there are still few orders, and there ate sellers at is loa to
is l Id, being again rather lower. Brandy has been in good demand
both for home consumption and export, and `rather higher prices haye
been obtained. British Corn Spirits st'ady at 9s 8d per gallon.
TALtow.—The home consumers' have purchased sparingly or
Petershurgb Yellow Candle at the present high prices of 57s to 57s 6d
but the stock being very light, holders will not sell under the above
rates.

LONDON CORN EXCHANGE, MARCH 21,
There was a fair show of Wheat from' Kettt this morning; but very
little from any other part ; the condition of the samples was generally.
.pretty good, and althOugh the'trade was not brisk the factdrs succeeded
in realising Monday's prices for fine parcels of both old and new.
Flour steady at late rates. Of Barley we had a fair quantity on sale ;
only a small. proportion, however, was of fine quality ; such conse-
quently readily found buyers on former terms ; secondary kinds were
likewise somewhat more saleable. The supply of Oats from our own
coast has been tolerably good, sincdllohday, but the arrivals from
Scotland and Ireland only limited. The sales tO-day were not very
considerable, still prices were rather higher than otherwise. In Beans
and Peas little passing, and the value of both articles unvaried.
