SALFORD CATTLE MARKET, JAN. 17.
We have had a very excellent show of stock this week, but as
buyers were very numerous, the best Beef and Mutton readily
fetched last week's rates. Every thing prime sold up early in
the day.

LIVERPOOL HIDE & SKIN MARKET, JAN. 13.
The demand for Hides to-day has fallen off a little, and prices
were a shade lower: —7olb. and upwards, Sid to 3td ; under 70
to 60, 216 ; under 60, 3kz ; inferior Cow 2id; bulls lid. For
Sheep Skins the sale was brisk ; first class rish 6e 4d; second
class ditto and Cheviots. 5s ; third class ditto 3s 6d; Scotch
25 2d to 2s 9d. No alteration in Veal Skins.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, JAN. 16.
Into this port and Runcorn, since the 9th instant, the
arrivals of Wheat and other Grain are comparatively very
inconsiderable, as well coastwise as from Ireland, but of
Flour and Oatmeal we have to note a further good sup-
ply ; the imports from abroad during the week consisting
merely of about 1800 qrs. of Wheat from Egypt, and 787
barrels of States and Canadian Flour.
Our market this morning having been tolerably well
attended by town and country buyers, and the rise

London yesterday tending to impart rather more general
confidence, a fair extent of business was transacted in
English and Irish Wheats, at an advance of Id. to 2d.;
most kinds of free Foreign realising Id. per 701bs. over
the rates of last week, and ordinary runs of Mediterra-
nean, in partial instances, exceeding this improvement.
English and Irish Flour met a good inquiry, but holders
requiring an advance of Is. per sack, and upon Foreign
ls. per barrel, which was not readily paid, sales in conse-
quence were not e;tensive.
Barley, Malt, Beans, and Pease continued to rule
nearly as in our report of Friday.
Oats, with very few offering upon the market, were fully

being in rather brisk demand for holding over, the
transactions in this article were considerable, at 21s.

realizing 21s. 3d.

CORN EXCHANGE, JANUARY 19.
No variation has taken place in the several rates of duty on
Foreign produce from those of last week; that on Colonial
Pease is raised to 2s per quarter.
Exclusive of some parcels of Wheat and Barley roundland,
and several vessels with Oats from Ireland, the supplies re-
ceived into this port within the past three days are small ; still,
with the exception of Oatmeal, for which there has been an

Upon a limited number of town and country millers at this
day's market, the transactions in Wheat were generally very
moderate in amount, but with unabated firmness on the part of
holders, English and Foreign remained steady in value; and
though in the common runs of Irish we have ho change to note,
one or two lots of superior quality realised an advance of Id per

tations, but moved off less freely than on Tuesday.
Barley and Malt attended with a tolerable demand, were the
torn cheaper.—Beans and Pease, continuing to meet a slow
gradual sale, merely retained late prices.
Oats, still coming forward rather sparingly, Scotch and Irish
were more readily saleable at a further amendment of ld per
bushel; Foreign likewise, have commanded some attention for
export, and about 12 qrs. have been sold in bond for that par.

request for investment, was held in consequence at 21, td to
21s gd per load ; which, being an advance of 6d over the extreme
rates of Tuesday, was reluctantly paid, and curtailing the de-
mand, the sales were not extensive.
