LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, FEBRUARY 7

We have had only a moderate enquiry for Cotton to-day,
and the sales barely reach 2000 bales at yesterday's prices,
including a few hundred bales on speculation account. The
intelligence from India, per Overland Mail, is not likely to
exercise any particular influence over the market, either pro
or con.

COTTON MARKET, FEBRUARY 9.
The business done in Cotton this week is on a more extensive
scale, particularly the last two or three days, nevertheless the tone
of the market is very inanimate hod dull, and prices considerably
lower. Yesterday, 6,000 bales were sold, and to-day, about the
same quantity. Speculators have been daily in the market, and
have operated to a considerable extent, particularly in the lower
descriptions of American Cotton, which is shewn freely, and sales
almost forced.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, FEBRUARY 7.
The tempest complained of last week has ceased, and the
weather become moderate; but the wind inclining to the
east, with some appearance of frost, the arrivals of grain
continne extremely light : into this port and Runcorn, how-
ever, we have to note a good quantity of Oatmeal, with some
parcels of Flour from Ireland, which comprise the only sup-
plies worth naming since this day se'nnight.
The doubts partially entertained as to whether the inter-
ference of Government would again be exercised in regard
to the Corn Laws, and which have kept the trade for some
time past in a state of suspense and consequent depression,
being now removed by Sir Robert Peel's disavowal of the in-
tention to promote any change, the holders of Wheat have
begun to manifest somewhat more confidence ; which, having
been met, at this day's market, by a rather improved feeling
on the part of buyers, sales, upon a moderate scale, were ef-
fected at ld, and in some few instances 2d per 701bs advance
upon the rates of Tuesday last.
English and Irish Flour, attended with a fair demand,
fully supported late prices ; which for States and Canadian
were barely sustained.

Prime Malting Barley, being wanted by the maltsters, and
still scarce, would, if at band, realise an amendment of la.
per qr. ; but in Grinding samples, or in Malt, Beans, or
Pease, the slightest improvement appeared unattainable.
Oats, although in short supply, were in very limited re-
quest, and the turn cheaper. Oatmeal, on the contrary, was
taken off a little more freely, and rather exceeded the cur-
rency of this day week, reputed marks of Irish obtaining
21s 6d per 2401b5.
