LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET. JAN. 21.
The advices received by the Halifax steamer, which arrived
on Sunday last, stating that the receipts were again considera-
bly less than at the same time last season, (nearly 90,000 bales,)
had the effect of making holders firm, and, combined with a
good demand on Tuesday, enabled them to obtain an occasional
advance of ird. per lb. in American ; for the last few days, how-
ever, owing to the continued dull accounts from Manchester,
the inquiries have been less numerous, and the sales made have
been at a slight decline, rendering it difficult now to realize the
quotations of Friday last. Surat is steady, but Brazil and Fgyp
titan are dull. Speculators have taken 100 Surat, and Exporters
100 American.

WAKEFIELD_CORN MARKET, JAN. 21

The supplies this Week are moderate. There is only a slow
trade for Wheat, at a rettOdion of Is. to 2s. per quarter. Barley
meets a dull sale at taiit week's prices. Oats and Shelling are
in very limited request, and again, lower. In Beans and other
articles no alteration.

MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, JAN. 22,

We have had a flat trade since our last, with a general ten-
dency to decline. Though some considerable business was
done at both Liverpool and Wakefield yesterday, our market
to-day shows no animation, though it may be said that there
was somewhat less desire to sell than was evinced during the
week. The transactions in each article are limited, at a decline
upon Wheat of 3d. per bushel, and Flour fully ls. per sack and
barrel. In other articles no particular variation. Indian Corn
and Meal rather recover the late depression.
