March ia pretty fair amount of business has been
doing in Cotton this week, although the market has been
totally devoid OF spirit. The sales amount to 90 700 bags,
and of this quantity Spectators have taken 1900 Anne,
rican, and exporters 1850 American, 400 Surat, and 500
Peruvian, The operations Of the trade continue rather
limited, there being nothing in the state of the Yarn and
Cotton. Holders offer freely, and it is difficult to effect
sales at the current rates, but there is no actual altera-
ton in prices since Friday last.
The import OF the week amounts to So OF bags.
To.days market has been quiet, not more than 1000 bags

MARCH Although we cannot as yet quote any i'm.

may safely call it a 8 ready market, with a fair daily de

that we must gradually recover from our PROSTATE con.

LIVERPOOL CoRS EXCHANGE, March 1.-THE only
change in the duties this week is an advance on oats to
lss Sd, and on rye to los Cd per quarter.
Since our hrst market this week a few small parcels Of
wheat and barley, with amoderate quantity of malt have
been received here c%oastwise, but the supplies of gram
from Ireland are extremely light, especially oats, Of
which We have none fresh in worth notice, and those Of
oatmeal are much less than usual. We have atthe same
time an average amount of wheat from abroad, but only
a limited arrival Of nourto report.
The period between Tuesday last and to day passed
over with scarcely any indication of business; and at our
Corn Exchange this morning the trade, with very few
exceptions, exhibited an extremely dull and uninierest-
ing character.

limited retail parcels for instant consumption, and had
buyers appeared upon a more extended scale, bolders
seemed prepared to submit to terms, for all descriptions
somewhatb below the general currenc! stated in our last
circular.
For wheat in bond there have been some inquiries, but
to day no sales have t%ranspired. English, Irish, and
duty pail foreign -four continued to meet n very languid
sale at late prices, and parcels under look are offered
without effect at a decline Of cd to Is per barrel.
LIVERPOOL Corn MARKEr, March l5.-The imports
of British grain, -four, and oatmeal. since this day sen
night are Of moderate account; Of wheat from abroad, as
wilt be observed on reference to the annexed list, we
have had a fair supply. Flour, too, has moved slowly at
34sto s5s United States sweet, 33s Cd to 34s per Dbl for
Canadian. IN barley, beans and peas there has been little
passing; the value OF each nominally unsltered. Some
inquiries have existed for both wheat end -four in bond;
1000 bbls OF the latter have changed hands at 2s Cd per
Dbl. IS OIL per 10 lbs has been refused for fair Odessa
soft wheat. Al a decline Of Id to q per bushel from the
