LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, MARCH 18,

The fresh arrivals of the past few days show but little in-
crease since Friday, whilst the exports hence to Ireland, espe-
cially of Indian Corn, are to a fair extent.

AlCire confidence was Vgain-.‘aim7reiWthis morning in the
trade generally ; both town and country millers purchased
Wheat more freey, and to a fair extent, the finest descriptions
realizing fully previous rates, and most of the ordinary and
Middle qualities of red about Id. per bushel advance.
Flour was also in request, and about 6d. per sack and barrel
more was made of several kinds which before had been pressed
at irregular rates.

Beans were held more firmly, and were in moderate demand;
but in Barley, Malt, and Pease we observe no alteration.

Oats and Oatmeal steady at the quotations.
We had much fewer pal cels of Indian Corn offering, and the
inquiry for Ireland being renewed, the depression of last week
was more than recovered to-day.

MARCH 21

In the course of the week we have had much heavy rain,
which is stated to have been the case in several other sections
of this country and Ireland, and on low damp soils impedes
t!,e active proceedings of husbandry for the moment. We have
scarcely any arrivals to note from Ireland since Monday last,
and, except a fair quantity of Malt and Pease, the supplies
c'astwise are trivial : the imports from abroad, also, are in the
aggregate but moderate, containing merely 1790 qrs. of Indian
Corn and 13,216 brls. Flour front the United States, 3600 qrs.
Wheat from the Black Sea and Egypt, 986 qrs. Beans from
Trieste, and 2472 sacks of Flour from France: the exports to
Ireland during the same time comprising chiefly 1793 qrs. of
Wheat and 2063 qrs. of Indian Corn.

In the British inarkets so far this week rather more firmness
is generally displayed on the part of sellers, and, although
buyers in few cases are reported to be active, Wheat and Bar-
ley in .some instances are quoted Gd. to ls. per qr. dearer.
Here, likewise, during the interval from Tuesday to this date,
the trade assumed a tolerable degree of stability, and in Wheat,
Indian Corn, and Flour a fair amount of business, partly on
speculation, was transacted at somewhat improving rates.
Although at our market this morning an improved feeling
continued to prevail relative to the leading articles of the trade,
rather less inclination was shown to purchase freely than du-
ring the two days immediately preceding. Of English and
foreign Wheats, however, sales upon a moderate scale were
*Wetted at an average amendment of Id. per 70lb. upon last
Tuesday's rates, and upon Rhine and some other particular
descriptions still higher terms were acquired. States and Ca-
nadian Flour, continuing to meet a tolerable share of attention,
realised a further advance of 6d. per barrel; and French, of
which supplies are now much less abundant than heretofore,
must be noted proportionately dearer; Irish remaining Jima-
ried. In Barley, Beans, and Pease, no change was apparent.
Matt dull, and Is. per qr. cheaper. Oats, upon a moderate
demand, slightly improved in value; and Oatmeal was 3d. per
load dearer. Indian Corn, commanding a fair inquiry, ad-
vanced 6d. per qr. upon Tuesday's prices, and holders were
firm at the amendment.

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, MAncri 21

The demand for Beef since our last rep,..
active, and, where the quality is fine, full prices are readily
paid.—Pork moves off steadily; several small parcels of old
have again been taken for Ireland, and the stock is now much
reduced.—We quote a further advance of Is. to 2s. on Bacon,
with the market bare, the late arrivals having been -
to give even a present supply to the retailers.—.
Shoulders are wanted, but none on the market —Lark
6d. dearer; the demand is not active, but stocks be
light, holders are enabled to maintain prices.

MANCHESTER CORN MARKET

105 0-

MARCH 22.

The symptoms of improvement noticed in our last have since
been fully confirmed ; and, without any great degree of acti-
vity, a considerable business has been done during the past
week, in all articles, at full prices. Our Exchange to-day is
well attended, and there is a disposition for business in Wheat
and, Flour, -which, however, is somewhat checked by the ad-
vance required: good useful samples of the former may be
quoted 2d..per 701 b., and fresh qualities of the latter is. per

Oatmeal Gd. per Id. dearer; prime qualities of Irish command
fractionally higher rates, but all other descriptions remain
unvaried.

WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET, MARCH 21.
Our arrivals of grain are extremely light, and the supplies in
the agricultural districts are represented as small, with a some-
what increased demand by the local millers.—To-day fresh
English Wheat is scarce, and dry samples are easy of sale, at
an advance of is. per quarter; old foreign does not generally
partake of the improvement, yet there is great firmness at pre-
sent rates. Barley sells on much the same terms as previously;
anything heavy and choice is readily bought up. Oats, Shell-
ing, and Beans are steady. No variation in other articles.

WISBECH CORN MARKET, MARCH 22.
We have rather more Grain offering here to-day, yet the
supply is small. Wheat of all qualities readily obtained Is.
per qr. more than last week, and the market still closed with
an upward tendency. Oats very scarce, and Is. per qr. dearer.
Beans are also improving in value.

NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE CORN MARKET, MA RCEI 22.
The show of farmers' Wheat to-day was to a moderate ex-
tent, and having a good demand it was cleared off early, at an
improvement of is. per qr. on the finest samples; other sorts
sold at fully late rates. Coastwise and from abroad, the arri-
yals together are very large; and in consequence of the number
of samples on offer, no further advance could be established,
although rather an active business was transacted in good fresh
Baltic Wheats, at the extreme rates of this day se'nnight.—
Malting Barley in fair request, and prices are in favour of the
seller; Grinding in good demand. at the late advance. The
arrivals of Oats coastwise being small, and the demand for
seed continuing, prices may be quoted 6d. per qr. dearer for
English and Scotch, but foreign are neglected. In the value of
Beans and Pease no material alteration can be noted. Our
millers advanced Flour Is. per sack : South country marks at-
tracting more attention, brought 6d. per sack more money.

DUBLIN CORN EXCHANGE, MARCH 21

We cannot yet report any decided improvement in the corn
trade, though there does not appear a tendency to further de-
pression. The only alteration we make in our quotations is in
Oats, which must be noted 3d. to 6d. dearer than on Tuesday.

DUBLIN CATTLE MARKET, MARCH 20.
The market to-day was smaller than last week, and from the
depressed state of the English markets in the beginning of the
week, Beef was lower by 2s. per cwt. Mutton, Lambs, and
Veal 'brought full prices. We observed a considerable number
of young stock for sale offering from 70s. a-head upwards, as
were dry and milch cows, being more numerous Mutt for some
time past—these, however, varying according to Quality and
condition, and selling singly, could not be fairly quoted as to
prices. The Pork market was thronged, and full prices had
for almost every kind of Pigs fit for killing. Prices of Beef in
sink, 398. to 435. and 445. per cwt.; Mutton. 53d. to 64d; Veal,
7d. per lb.; Lambs, 158. to ?vs, on 4 255. each; Pork, 345, to
385.; beevp, P9o, PM per cwt.
