LIVERPOOL HAY AND POTATO MARKET,
March 21.
A change of wind has brought into port upwards of thirty
cargoes of Potatoes during the last two tides. There is a very
good demand for the best description's of Cups to our retail town
dealers. The country buyers purchase very sparingly ; the
markets in the interior being very dull, particularly in Manchester.
Manx, Scotch and Irish Cups 2s ()id to as 2d per gult.
We have had a fair supply of Sweed Turnips to hand coastwise
during the last week. for which there is a brisk sale at from 266 to
Sus per ton. according to condition and quality.
Our local markets are pretty liberally supplied with produce by
our neighbouring farmers, for which they experience a brisk sale,

LIVERPOOL COLONIAL MARKET, MARCH 18.
Sugar.-- The announcement that no alteration was intended to

mand for all descriptions, and the sale of B. P. amount to 1300
hhds., at an advance of 2s to as per cv.t. 12,,00 lfags Bengal have

665. _No transactions in Foreign. Molasses.—The same cause
which has influenced the B. V. Sugar market, added to the unusually
small stock, has induced the Trade to take off what few parcels
were offering. and the sales-amoant to 450 puns. Demerara, at 24s
for old to 275 to 28s for fair to fine new, being and advance of is
per cwt. Coffee.—ln consequence of the proposed reduction of

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, MARCII 21.
Our report of the Cotton market for the last few days does not
vary in the slightest degree from our last, all is quiet and inani-
mate, buyers merely taking for their immediate wants. On Satur-
day :sew) bales were sold, and to-day 4005 at last week's priand
ces.
The accotias from Manchester are still of a gloomy natu re,
manufactnr, rs seem disposed to adopt the plan of short time,
though this is always a last resort in a time of low prices, when
the risk of holding heavy stocks is so inconsiderable.

COTTON MARKET.—WEEKLY REPORT.
In the early part of the week the demand was moderate, the
Trade supplying their immediate wants only; since Wednesday,
however, there has been more doing, and as holders have
last
not
pressed their stocks on the market quite so freely, the prices of
Week for all descriptions remain without change. Speculators have
taken roes American, and Exporters 2,500 American and 300 Surat.
300 Sea Island are advertised for auction on Friday, Ist April.
