MANCHESTER CORN MARKET, JULY 2

The supplies of home produce are small, and it appears probable
that this will be the case until after harvest. Large arrivals of
foreign Wheat and Flour continue however to pour into Hull and
Liverpool, and thus the deficiency in quantity is supplied : but our
millers find some difficulty in selecting the qualities they require.
in consequence of this the best and freshest samples of English
and Foreign Wheat have maintained their value pretty steadily, and
a moderate business has been doing during the week for con-
sumption. Flour has hardly kept its ground, and the prices of Oats,
Oatmeal, and other articles have exhibited a tendency to decline.
At this day's market the business doing is simply for the supply of
present wants as regards every article. Best Wheats support late
prices; secondary and interior (especially the Mediterranean
qualities) are id to 2d per bushel lower. The stock of home-made
Flour is low, and good qualities maintain the rates of our last.
States' and Canadian are offered at a reduction of 6d to is per
barrel. Oats very slow sale, and all but the best samples may be
bought on lower terms, their value being nearly nominal. The
stock of Meal held here is large, and is gradually diminishing, but
the sale for it is very slow at 6d to is per load less than on this day
week. Beans rather cheaper. Malt of good quality is held firmly
at the late rates.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, JULY 1.
The demand:to-day has been to a very fair extent for flat
times, and 3500 to 4000 bales have been sold, at yesterday's
prices. The sales of the week amount to 27,450 bales. Ex-
porters have taken 1400 American, and 510 Surat and Ma-
dras : speculators 1500 American. The market closes quiet.

COTTON MARKET, .11.11. Y 4.
To-day the demand for Cotton appeared considerable, but the
extent of business is only 4000 bales, with rather a languishing
heavy feeling in the market. On Saturday only Mu bales were
sold, Sot of them for export. The quantity offering is plentiful,
and buyers have a good selection, though the best is comparatively
bad.

COTTON M ARKET.— WEEKLY REPORT.
There has been a fair demand from the trade throughout the
week, but as the accounts from the manufacturing districts are
without improvement, prices remain unchanged. Surat is still in
good request, but Egyptian and Brazil are dull of sale. Speculators
have taken 1500 American, and Exporters 1400 American and 450
Surat, and there have been forwarded into the country unsold
during the past month 3900 American, 150 Bahia and 300 Surat.
1050 Sea Island and 150 Stained are advertised for sale by auction
on Friday next.
