MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, FFII. 18.
Supplies from all quarters are moderate, the demand equally so,
and the trade during the week has moved On slowly, with little al-
teration in the value of any article. The above remarks are ap-
plicable to the Liverpool and Wakefield markets of yesterday, nor
does the business transacted at our Exchange to-day call for ally
particular additional observation. We have merely to state that
the value of each article is much the same as on this day week ;
but there is no life in the trade, and the demand for each is eon-
fined. to such quantities as are requisite for present consumption.

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, FEB. 20.
The very severe weather which we have experienced for the last
few,days, has had a tendency of staying the downward progress
in pie prices of Butter. Still there is much apathy observable in
the trade ; consumers declining to touch anything beyond their
immediate wants. The average rate of good Butters we quote at
765. Pickled Butter is in few hands, and the late currency (745) is
supported. There have been a few hundred barrels of Pork, of lair
quality, taken for shipment to the Weit Indies, at 41s to 47s 6d per
brl. The trade, generally, both for this article and Beef, is how.
ever very dull. Bacon is iu such limited demand, that we look
upon the prices as nominal at 3is to 365.

LIVERPOOL COLONIAL MARKET, FEB. 17.
Sugar.—There has been rather more inquiry for B. P., and the
sales amount to 500 hhds, chiefly strong brown qualities, to the
Refiners, at rather lower prices. Holders of Bengal have sub-
mitted to a further decline, and in consequence have succeded in
disposing of 52:.0 bags; Kbaur at 44s 6d, and good to fine white
at 64s 6d to 65s 6d per cwt. No sales of Mauritius. Foreign.-
50 cases good brown Pernambuco, of old import, have been sold at
17s tit per cwt. No sales in Molasses. Coffee.—The demand con-
tinues very limited, the sales comprising only 60 casks of Jamtdca,
at rather lower Wes for ordinary sorts, and 100 bags and brls.
La Guayra. at 58s 6d for middling, and 63810 65s for good middling.
No transactions reported in Cocoa, Ginger, Pimento or Pepper.
Rice.—'oo bags of Bengal sold at Its to 11s 6d, and 150 bags
damagedl at 9s per cwt. The business in Rum is limited to 41 puns.
of Demerara, at 2s 8d to as 2d, and 80 puns. of East India, 30 per
cent. 0. P., at Is 9d per gallon.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, FEBRUARY 17.
A fair inquiry for Cotton to-day, and 4000 to 5000 bales
sold. The sales of the week are 27,910 bales, of which 4000
American have been taken by speculators, and 1000 by ex-
porters. Prices, as a whole, about 4-d. per lb. lower since
this day fortnight, particularly in low American descriptions.

COTTON MARKET, FEBRUARY 20.
We are enabled to report a better state of things in our Cotton
market both in tone, feeling and increased demand; fully two,'
bales have been sold at a shade advance of Saturday's prices, and
the market closes steadily, arid with much firmuess;—the supply is
nevertheless abundant.

COTTON MARKET.--WEEKLY REPORT.
The trade continues to buy rather freely, and there is a fair in-
quiry for speculation and export; but so great has been the
anxiety on the part of some of the holders to effect sales, that a
further decline of id to id v. lb has been submitted to for American
descriptions. The demand for other kinds is comparatively insig-
nifticant, and the prices are rather lower. Specnlatorr have taken
4000 American, and Exporters 1000 American.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, FEBRUARY 17.
The duties on foreign Pease is Is., and colonial 6d. per
quarter higher, which are the only changes noticed in the
average returns received to-day.
Although contrary winds have continued to prevail, several
vessels have worked up since the beginning of the week, con-
taining, however, on the whole, but a very moderate fresh
supply of Grain, Flour, and Oatmeal coastwise and from
Ireland ; and as usual of late, we have no foreign arrivals to
report; thus leaving the market very indifferently provided
w4th such descriptions as are more immediately wanted by
our dealers ; they have, notwithstanding, held off in antici-
pation of better supplies, and combined with the pressure
affecting other branches of business, the Corn trade up to
yesterday was unimproved in demand, without variation from
the rates previously quoted. Some inquiries existed for
foreign Wheats, but at prices generally so low, as to pre-
vent anything beyond a few limited purchases.
This day's market presented no new features ; the attend.
ance of actual buyers was limited, and sales of Wheat, both
Foreign and Irish, proceeded slowly, at much the same prices
for the former, and, on account of the short supply, at the
full rates of Tuesday for the latter description. The farmers
being occupied with field labour during the present fine dry
frosty weather, scarcely a sample• of country Wheat was
shown to-day.
English and Irish Flour was in fair request at the currency
of Tuesday last, but in American parcels we had little doing.
The few arrivals of Roundland and Chevalier Barley were
cleared off at 335. to 345. per quarter, and other sorts in pro-
portion : there was also rather more inquiry for the com-
mon descriptions of this grain.
In Malt, Beans, and Pease, no alteration, either as to de-
mand or value.
We experienced a better sale for Mealing Oats, and in the
absence of any adequate supply, our extreme rates were
more easily obtainable. Scarcely anything was, however,
done in Oatmeal, holders still requiring 21s. 6d., and there
being no buyers in any quantity above 21s. per 240 lbs.
