WAKEFIELD CORN EXCHANGE, JUNE 21.

The millers have purchased freely of Whrat last week, are
not disposed to increase their stocks much to-day. Fine fresh
thrashed Wheats have been taken off at fully last week's prices,
and all other sorts maintain their quotations. Barley is in fair
request for grinding purposes, at little improvement in value.
Oats, Shellings, and Beans in steady request, without any
material alteration iu price.

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, JUNE 24.
The pric, s of Butter have evin, ed a decided tendency down-
ward during the past week, and the demand has materially
slackened. Pickled seconds are unaltered in price, but with
only a very limi ed demand. There is but very little good heavy
Irish Heel in the market, and for such a full price is obtained.
Prime Irish Pork is also a saleable article at tOs to 655 per brl.
Me ium sized, dried Hams are scarce, and if well cut and
cured, bring 52s to 48 per cwt. The demand for Bacon is brisk,
the primest Belfast being a free sale at 40s to 42s per cwt.

MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, JUNE 22.
The weather s'nce our last has been sho cry, but more rain
would still be acceptable.
From the reports from various parts of the country, it would
appear that there cannot he half a crop of Hay, and that
(varying with the nature of soil, &c.) all the growing crops,
with the exception of Wheat, have sustained decided injury
from the long protracted drought.
The trade during the week has been quiet, and without va-
riation in prices, except as regards secondary qualities of Flour,
which have s arcely maintained their previous value.
This day's market is of :imilar character some instances
rather less money is taken for inferior Wheats, and common
Flours are rather ,ower,
Oats, Oatmeal and Beans, steady at former rates. Fine
Malt Is per load dearer.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, JUNE 24.
There has been a good demand for most kinds of Cotton this
week, but more particularly for American, in which a larger
business has been transacted, at an advance of *d in the
ordinary up to fair qu lities of Mobile and Orleans, but without
any improvement in Uplands. Other descriptions remain with-
out change. Yesterday and to day there has been a considerable
falling off in the demand, and the market closed rather heavily.
10,100 American have been taken on speculation, and 2,300
American, 66 Pernaum, and 100 Surat for export.
