MANCHESTER CORN MARKET, Apßir. 30.
The trade throughout the past week has continued very inactive ,
supplies of all articles rather exceed the current demand, which
has been confined to select samples of each, at prices scarcely so
good as on this day week. The weather continues dry and parch-
ing; hot sun accompanied 11, cold East wind, and the want of rain
is beginning to be felt. The new law will probably come into
operation during next week—when, through payment of duty will
not be generally made, it will probably take place to some extent
upon such qualities of Wheat as are suited to the present neces-
sities of the market. At our Corn Exchange to-day, fine new
Wheats can scarcely be quoted lower than on this day week, but
old, and all secondary qualities are purchaseable on rather lower
terms. Flour is the turn-cheaper, with little demand for anything
but choice fresh qualities. Oats and Oatmeal, with a very limited
inquiry, tend downwards in value. Beans, Malt, and other articles
without variation.

LIVERPOOL HAY AND POTATOE MARKET,
May 2.

Adverse winds have materially operated in checking the arrival
of vessels to this port during the past week,—although we have to
report a moderate extent of Potatoes to hand, both from the Isle
of Man, Scotland, Ireland, and also from Guernsey and 'Jersey.
' For these few past days there has been a very animated business
doing in all descriptions of the root, at the full currency of our
last report. Pinkeycs is ltd to 2s Id; Guernsey and Jersey Blues
Is gd to 2s Id per polb.
Our local farm produce continues to attract the attention of our
town retail dealers. particularly Potatoes which are moved away
briskly at our last quotations. vie

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, ArRIL 29

Only a very moderate enquiry for Cotton in our market
to-day. The sales are not likely to exceed 3,000 bales of all
descriptions. The sales of the week are comparatively small,
say 19,090 bales, of which speculators have taken 2,000
American, and exporters 1700 of various descriptions. As
regards prices, we consider the lower descriptions of Ameri-
can Cotton id, down since this day week, whilst the better
classes, and also Brazils, are more enquired for, and fully
maintain previous rates. The public sale of Sea Islands was
thinly attended, and few sold, 4t 4 decline upon previous
business by private.

COTTON MARKET, MAY
Our Cotton market has fallen back into its wonted quiet and
spiritless state; the demand on Saturday was to the extent of 3 009
bales, and to-day about 3500 have been sold at last week's prices.
400 American for export. The late heavy arrivals are not yet
landed. Holders do not press their stocks on the market, or mani-
fest any anxiety to effect sales, which has a salutary effect in keep-
ing the market perfectly steady, even with the tame feeling that
pervades It.

COTTON MARKET.-WEEKLY REPORT

The disposition to speculate has almost subsided, and the Trade
have likewise been less desirous to purchase. The extensive sales,
however, of the preceding fortnight having in some degree relieved
the market, holders have not been anxious to press sales, and,
sxcept for the middling and lower qualities of American, which
have given way id per ib, the quotations remain as last week. At
public sale to-day 1320 Sea Island, gOO Stained and 360 Madras were
offered, but only 200 Sea Island and 100 Stained were sold, at a
decline of id per lb on the lower qualities; 130 Madras were also
disposed of. Speculators have taken 2000 American, and Exporters
1000 American, 350 Pernambuco, 270 Surat and 70 Madras,
