la t three days are light upon the whole, the import of French
Froduce amounting only to 1665 qrs. Wheat and 3663 sacks of
lour; that of American being 1375 qrs. Indian Corn and 5431
barrels of Flour. Previous importations, however, furnish a
considerable excess over the requirements of consumers, and
though the value of most articles here appeared unvaried, we
can hardly consider them as firmly supported. Several float-
ing cargoes of Indian Corn have changed hands, but on the
spot we have had very little business transacted during the in-
terval since Tuesday. _ _

At this day's market we bad a poor attendanc'e of either local
or country buyers; the trade ruled exceedingly dull for wheats
of all descriptions, the sales effected being altogother of retail
extent, at nominally unaltered rates.—The quantity of French
Flour still pressing for sale, much of which is short of strength,
causes cont►nued difficulty in promoting transactions in such,
even at 6d. to Is. per sack decline, neither do the best marks
support their late value; and while sweet American is unsale-
able at 6d. per barrel reduction, choice parcels of sour, being
in much smaller compass than of late, maintain the late cur-
rency, and are in tolerable request.
Fine malting Barley is now less plentiful, and firm, and
grinding parcels are steadily retailed at the quotations of our
last.—Oats and Oatmeal in limited demand, without change in
prices.—Beans and Peas Unaltered.
Indian Corn sells slowly, the best yellow American, new or
old, at 225. 6d- to 30s. per 4801bs. ; prime white, of which none
appeared to day, would command 325. to 335.

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, FEBRUARY 21.
There has been more doing in Beef, the advices per Arctic of
a short packing in the west having given increased confidence
to buyers ; as previously, however, it is chiefly the best brands
that have been looked after. Pork firmly maintains the late
enhanced prices; but the transactions this week have not been
extensive. The market is now quite clear of Bacon : we have
to report a further sale of 300 boxes (St. Louis) to arrive, at
365. 6d. per cwt. Lard has again gone up Is. to Is. per cwt. ;
but, for want of material, the business has been small. We
have to report an advance of 3s. to 4s. per cwt. on the better
descriptions of Cheese, and Is. to Is. on the ordinary qualities
with an active demand. Butter has advanced 2s. to 3s. per cwt.
during the week.
