LiIigRPOOL COTTON MARKET, APRIL, 21
Only a very moderate enquiry for Cotton to-day. About
2000 bales sold at yesterday's prices; about 200 balegfaken
for export, with a steady and firm feeling.

COTTON MARKET, Aran

Our market has very much tamed, and the demand does not
exceed 3,600 bales daily all to the trade, with the exception of a
few hundred for export and speculation. Holders are firm, and not
deterred by the expected large import, which buyers are looking
forward to as likely to bring down prices. The late advance is not
fully maintained, particularly in the very low descriptions.

SALFORD CATTLE MARKET, APRIL 27.
The show of stock to-day was only moderate, either of Beef or
Mutton. The best Beef brought last week's rates, and prime
Mutton the same. The new tariff does not appear to have affected
prices as yet in this market. Best Beef 6d to dad, Mutton did to
7d. and clipped Sheep 6d per lb.

MANCHESTER AND SALFORD HIDE, SKIN, AND
TALLOW MARKET, APRIL 27.:
The price of Hides, all weights above 601135, 3d per lb, Cheviots
and half-bred 3s gd to 4s 6d ; large skins (Irish and Yorkshire) Is
to 6s. Tallow 4s gd per stone of 141bs.

SMITHFIELD CATTLE MARKET, Amu 25.
The supply of Cattle to-day although not so large as on this day
week, the trade is nevertheless exceedingly heavy, and a reduction
of prices is consequently the result, with the exception of Beef,
which has scarcely varied, the quotation being from 3s 2d to 4s 4d ;
Mutton, for prime sorts has declined 2d since this day week, which
ranges between 3s 6d to 4s 6d. Pork, which fell on last market day
about 4d, remains at 4s to 5s per stone. Veal is 4s 8d to 5s 4d, which
is 4d lower than Monday last. There was a dull inquiry for Lambs,
5s 6d to 6s 4d was the price, and every article looked very dull
(Per stone of Sibs, sinking the offal.

LONDON CORN EXCHANGE. APRIL 25.
The Corn trade during last week remained very inactive both in
regard to demand and fluctuation of prices. We have been but
moderately supplied for some weeks past with every description of
grain, our English supplies being generally confined to the home
counties, and our foreign from the Baltic and Mediterranean ports.
To this morning's market the arrivals are tolerably good of Eng-
lish Wheat, fair of Barley, and short of other descriptions of spring
corn. Wheats must be quoted 9.s lower for all qualities, Barley is
in moderate demand at a decline of is from this day week, and
Oats are a slow sale at last week's prices; and Beans and Peas of
both sorts are without alteration, with a good supply of Hog Peas
fresh up. Flour remains inactive, and the Seed trade is drawing
to a close for this season

WEDNESUAV, April 27

The trade has been very stagnant this morning, and the prices
are nominally the same as on Monday last, when Wheat was about
is per quarter lower than in the preceding week. The supplies of
English Wheat are abundant, but speculators are unwilling to
move, in consequence of the discordant opinions on the subject of
the Corn Law, which some parties assert, but probably erroneously,
will lower the duty on foreign Wheat 14s per quarter on the com-
mencement of the law. The grain generally is much improved in
quality, and the English Wheat would now command much better
prices were the factors clear in their views of the new Corn Law
Act.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, APRIL 26.
Although several English, Irish, and Foreign vessels have
arrived here since Friday, the supplies of Grain fresh in.for
this day's market are collectively but moderate, and of Flour
and Oatmeal very inconsiderable.
The New Corn Bill, having passed through the Lords, is
expected to take immediate effect, which, combined with the
depression in Mark Lane yesterday, and the continuance of
fine, though dry weather, serve to increase the languor pre-
♦iously noted ; we have accordingly to report an exceedingly
dull trade this morning, for English, Irish, and all Foreign,
duty paid, Wheats, and a further abatement generally,
thereby reducing our quotations 2d. to 3d. per 701bs below
the rates of Tuesday last. Home-made and Irish Flour
hardly sustained late prices, and States, as also Canadian,
declined 6d. per barrel, with a slow limited sale for all de-
scriptions.
Ih bonded grain no transactions have been reported since
Friday ; and except a few hundred barrels for export, few or
none in Flour.
Barley and Malt, attended with occasional sales, retained
their former value. Beans and Pease remained stationary.
The Oat trade having been extremely heavy, was decidedly
rather lower ; and Oatmeal, being taking off sparihgly, re-
ceded 6d. per 2401b5.
