LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, MARCEL 28.
Since our last, the Butter trade has been panic stricken. Indif-
ferent parcels having been sold as low as 65s per cwt. On Satur-
day and to day, however, there is a better feeling, and we do not
believe the extreme point of sacrifice would be accepted. There
appears to be no doubt that when Sir Robert Peel's fiscal regula-
tions have had • a fair chance, much steadiness in our Provision
markets will be the result.

WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET, MARCH 24. .
Our arrivals of Grain' are very moderate this week. The con-
tinued general depression of traile in the manufacturing districts
has caused our dealers to work out of stock, whilst the reduced
rates have induced most holders to withdraw their samples. To-
day our shew of Wheat is small; the best conditioned New and
Old is Is per qr. dearer, and in second sorts there is more doing at
former prices. Fine Barly Is per qr. higher. Oats have advanced
id per st., and Shelling t s per load. Beans as before. No variation
in other articles.

SMITHFIELD CATTLE MARKET, MARCH 24.
Our market to-day, for a Good Friday, was moderately well sup.
plied with Beasts as to numbers, but their general quality was very
inferior. With the exception of the receipts from Scotland by sea,
which amounted to about 500 horned and polled Scots (only 200 of
which were brought forward this morning, the remainder being
kept back for Monday) the whole of them were the refuse of the
last market day. The attendance of buyers being numerous the
Beef trade was somewhat steady, but no improvement was noticed
in the quotations. Sheep, which were in short supply, sold freely
at full currencies, and a good clearance was easily effected. This
being the great Lamb market, the demand for all qualities was
brisk, and the best Essex Lambs produced 8s per 81b. The numbers
exhibited on this occasion were comparatively small, they being
nearly B,noo less than at the corresponding period of 1821. This
was attributed to the great losses caused by the epidemic in our
grazing districts. From the Isle of Wight only 100 Lambs carne to
hand, whilst their prices ruled from 6s to 7s per,Slb. The Veal and
Pork trade was firm at late rates. Mulch Cows moved off slowly,
at from ..el6 to £2O los each. By the quantities of Sibs, sinking
the offal.

LIVERPOOL HAY AND POTATO MARKET,
March 28.
The heavy stock of Potatoes at present on our market, has com-
pletely checked the demand, both the town and country dealers
anticipating a further decline in prices. There has been little or
no business of moment transacted today, and the market closed
exceedingly dull this evening. Manx, Scotch and Irish Cups ks
Sod to 2s per 9ulh.
There is a pretty good sale for Turnips, and the best descriptions
of Sweedes commands 29s per ton.
Our local markets are only scantily supplied with all descriptions
of agi icultural produce, but for which there is only slow sale.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, MARCH 25.
The demand has continued moderate throughout the week, but
the better classes of American fully maintained their price, whilst
the lower qualities and other kinds are heavy of sale at the quota-
tions of Friday last. Speculators have taken 1800 American, and
Exporters ;50 American and 50 Surat. ;00 Sea Island are declared
for auction on Friday, Ist April.

COTTON MARKET, MARCH 29.
We are entirely without change in oar Cotton market ; the de-
mand on Saturday amounted to 25, 0 bales, and to-day it has not
exceeded 3000 bales, at last week's prices. Easter week is a par-
tial holiday in M anchester and the manufacturing districts generally
and that we must calculate upon even a quieter week than we have
lately had. The market is well supplied with Cotton, but holders
do not press their stocks, they are nevertheless willing sellers at a
fair market price.
