LIVERPOOL PRODUCE MARKET, JANUARY 24.
In Sugar there is not any improvement, but as holders have
shown more disposition to sell, the business has been to a
larger extent, and the sales consist of 280 hhds. 8.P., 5000 bags
Bengal, and 5000 bags Madras ; the latter chiefly from 30s. to
325. 6d.. being a decline of fully Is. on these, and 6d. per cwt.
on other descriptions. Three cargoes- of new brown Brazil
have been sold during the week; two Pernambuco, one at
19s. 6d. per cwt. for the Clyde, the other at 19s. 3d. for this
port, and one Paraiba at 19s. 6d. for Bristol ; on the spot, 1000
bags old brown Pernambuco brought 17s. 9d. to 18s. The
sales of Molasses amount to 650 casks, including Demerara
and Trinidad at 14s. 61 to 14s. 9d., and Barbadoes at 16s. ;
these are generally old parcels, and the quality inferior. The
Coffee market has a downwardtendency, and the business of
the week is only of trifling extent, comprising a few tierces
Jamaica at 85s. to 935., 150 bags Native Ceylon at 525., 16 bales
East India at 525., and 50 bass Ceara at 50s. per cwt. No sales
of Cocoa, Ginger, or Pepper. 50 bags Pimento sold at 54d..t0
sid. per lb. A small parcel of Carolina Rice sold at 175., and
5000 bags East India at 7s. 9d. for low Madras, Bs. 3d. to Bs. 9d.
for very low to good broken Bengal, and 10s. 3d. per cwt. for
good white. The business done in Rum has been chiefly in
East India, of which 200 hhas. have been gold, at Is.7id. proof,
with a small lot of Madras, of high strength, at a price equal
to is. Bd. pvr gallon proof. The improvement in Tea noticed
last week has subsided, and the few sales made are in favour
of the buyers; some parcels of common Hyson and Young
Hyson have been taken for exportation, at previous rates.

PRESTON CORN MARKET, JANUARY 25.
We have no change to note in the Corn trade during the past
week. There was a short supply of English Wheat at our Corn
Exchange to-day, and the demand being brisk, the whole was
soon cleared at the extreme rates of this day se'nnight. Irish.
as well as Foreign, held for full prices. Four rather more
sought after at our previous currency. Beans unchanged. Oats
were obtainable on rather easier terms. Farmers' Oatmeal
not so plentiful. Irish in moderate retail request, without
change in value.

WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET, JANUARY 24.
The arrival of Grain is moderate; the weather keeps unu-
sually mild, though a little frost this morning. Millers adhere
to their system, as of late, in purchasing for their weekly
supply. Wheat finds a steady sale, at fully last week's prices.
Choice Barley Is. dearer, and other sorts more in demand.
Oats and Shelling do not, in the least, vary. Beans as before,
except new, which sell at rather less money. Other articles as
before.

WISBECH CORN MARKET, JANUARY 25.
At our market to-day we have less offering, but the quality
has improved a little. Best Wheats in good demand, and the
full prices of last week are freely given. In Beans and Oats no
alteration.

NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE CORN MARKET, JAN. 25.
There was a fair supply of country Wheat at market to-oay ;
also good arrivals from the coast during the week. The trade
has continued to rule in the same dull state as noticed for
some time past, and the transactions in any article exceedingly
limited, millers and others confining their purchases to their
immediate requirements. Having a good attendance to-day,
there was rather more disposition to do business, and the
market closed with rather a better feeling, the rates of this day
se'nnight being fully supported for both old stid new Wheat of
good quality ; damp and secondary parcels, however, are still
difficult to quit.—ln the value of Barley no further alteration
can be noticed, and the sale still rules heavy.—Malt, unless
really fine, very unsaleable.—Owing to contrary winds, the
arrivals of Oats are limited, but the supply from the country
was good, and last week's prices were about supported. The
transactions in Scotch, in the absence of supplies, were unim-
portant.—Peas and Beans nominally as last quoted.—Flour the
same.

DUBLIN CATTLE MARKET, JANUARY 24.
This day's market was smaßer than any of the preceding for
some weeks. The demand was fair for export as well as for
home use, from the active state of Monday's Liverpool market.
Beef was about 2s. per cwt. higher than last week, and Mutton
id. per lb. The prices of Beef were from 3Ss. to 425. and 448.
per cwt. ; Mutton, sd. to 6d. ; Veal, 6d. per lb., sinking offal.
The Pig market was large, and the general appearance of good
finish. Porkers, 28s. to 305., and those for Bacon 30s. to 325.
per cwt. There was better buying to-day far the English mar-
kets.
