LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, Mancti 3.
The increased demand for Cotton in our market last week has
again subsided, and consumers merely purchase to supply their
immediate wants, averaging about 3000 bales each day. In prices
we make no change, except that in au uneven market, occasionally
cheap purchases are made. Exporters are very active in their
enquiries, but cannot meet with suitable qualities. The good is
daily becoming scarce, and even if high prices could he given,
the better descriptions are not in the stock, which is far from a
small one.

SMITHFIELD CATTLE MARKET, FEB. 28.
There was a great improvement in the trade generally to-day;
the butchers at market were more numerous, and purchased freely,
more so than for some time past. The supply of Beasts was
moderate, but very short of Sheep. Of Calves and Pigs the supply
was about an average one. Beef recovered the decline of 4d per
stone noticed on last market day, and Mutton of every quality was
fully ad per stone higher, prime old South Downs fetching as ad,
and coarse sorts is led. Veal commanded a fair steady trade at
former prices. The inquiry for Pork was better, and prime choice
young meat realized 5s ad. being an advance of 4d. In nearly all
uses clearance were made. (Per stone of 81b, sinking the offal.)

LONDON CORN EXCHANGE, FED. 28.
The supplies fresh up to this morning's market are moderate of
all kinds of English grain. The arrival of Foreign Wheat is up-
wards of 25,000 quarters. The finest samples of Wheat realize is
advance on the prices of this day week, but other sorts are without
any variation. Barley is a slow sale unless for fine descriptions.
The total supply of English, Scotch, and Foreign Oats consists of
31,0'10 quartets. Oats are 6d to is cheaper. Beans or Peas no
alteration. Flour is a very dull sale. Seeds of all kinds continue
in moderate demand, and late quotations.W • •
EDNESDAY, Mardi 2.

The business this morning has been on the most limited scale,
and the attendance confined to a few retail dealers, whose pur-
chases have been nominally at the rates of Monday last. The
stock of Irish Oats is large, and this article is not firm at former
prices. The samples of English Wheat are inferior, and the free
bonded being almost all consumed, the small quantity in the
market is held at excessive rates.
