      CURES IN SHEFFIELD . FroiiMr . A . Whittaker , bookseller , 1 , Forgate , Sheffield . Jun . 2 , 1846 . Gentlemen—Numberless parties in and around Sheffield , have found the greatest benefit from Dr . Locock ' s Pulmoni * Wafers . Among the rest a gentleman , who has been a leading actsr on the Sheffield stage upwards of twenty years , assured me that he always kept by him a box of Loce ' ck ' s Wafers , whether at home or when travelling to distant towns , as being the best and readiest remedy he can get for colds and hoarseness , so peculiarly troublesome in his profession . Aud the gentleman , who lives at Pitsmoor , has been for years much subject to illness from colds , and he declares that during a number of years he has tried almost svery medium that he has heard of for coughs and colds , but none had boon of material service to him until ha tried Locock ' s Wafers , which at once cured him .

Locock ' a Wafers , I beg respectfully to make known my case to you . Last winter I took cold , which brought on a verj bad cough ; for some time I neglected it ; it soon , howevsr began to wear a serioui aspect . Having an aversion to call iu a medical man , I was easily prevailed upon by a friend to try Dr . Locock ' s wafers . The first box did me so much service that I felt assured it only required a little perseverance to obtain a perfect cure . It gives me great pleasure to inform you that I am now perfectly restored to health by them . Yours truly , CPaneb . To Mr . Reinntirdt .

      Newcastle Cons Market , Tuesday . —We had a good supply of wheat at market to-day , both from the growers and coastwise , but the attendance of buyers being rather small , no advance in price could be obtained , and a moderate extent of business was transacted in all descriptions of quality , at last Saturday ' s rates . Barley met a very limited demand , and was looking lower , as our maltsters , generally speaking , have large stocks on hand . The inquiry for malt was entirely confined to the choicest samples . Rye sold slowly at our last quotations . In beans and peas there was not much passing . Oats remained without alteration in value .

      London Corn Exchange , Monday , Feb . 9 . —The announcement of the failure of a large maltster at Ware , in Hertfordshire , whose liabilities on this market are upwards of £ 12 , 000 , cast a gloom over the proceedings here , especially as it is known that the government is indebted in a large sum for duties . During the last week , up to Saturday evening , the arrivals of English wheat were , comparatively speaking , somewhat on the increase , yet they were by no means seasonably large . Of English barley and malt the receipts were very extensive ; those of all other grain , of home produce , moderate . Of Irish oats the arrivals were small ; but from abroad upwards of 15 , 000 quarters , on which it is probable the duty will be paid , came to hand . The fresh supply of foreign wheat and flour has been good ; but , under present circumstances , it has been landed in bond . From Essex a fair average quantity of wheat came to hand to-day , coastwise as well as by land carriage and Eample , but that from Kent , Cambridgeshire , &c , was small . Although the attendance of buyers was

      rather larger , the demand for that article was not to say brisk ; nevertheless , the finest qualities of both red and white moved off steadily at very full prices . In other kinds but few sales were effected at last Monday ' s quotations , yet a fair clearance was effected prior to the close of the market . The show of free foreign wheat was small , yet the demand for that article was somewhat inactive , at unaltered currencies . Holders of foreign wheat under lock were asking most extravagant prices . This , of course , checked the inquiry , and so little was doing that the currencies were almost nominal . The supply of barley was very extensWe , owing to which the sale for it was in a depressod state , and in somo instances the factors were compelled to submit to a further reduction in prices of Is . per quarter . The show of malt being good , and the buyers operating with great caution , the malt trade was dull , and prices had a downward tendency . In oats very little was doing , at barely , but at nothing quotable beneath , last week ' s currencies . Beans , peas , and flour dull , but not cheaDer .

      London Smithfield Cattle Market , Feb . 9 Since Monday last the imports of live stock from th continent for our market have been on a very liberaf scale , the time of year considered , viz ., 140 oxen iml cows , and 2 calves , from Rotterdam ; 200 covts ' j » oxen , and 300 sheep from Harlingen , together with 20 oxen from Hamburg . The whole of the abov supplies have been received from steamers in excel lent condition . At the outports the receipts , arising from the comparatively high prices ruling here hay been unimportant . To-day we had on offer 250 beast and 310 sheep from Holland , with which the tmdf was in a Bluggish state , and previous quotations wo * not supported . From our grazing districts the airivals of beasts fresh up this morning were on th « increase . and of very superior quality , especiallyaj relates to the Hereford :-, Devons , Scots , and home ! breds . Notwithstanding the attendance of both town and country buyers was tolerably numerous , and th »

      weatner more tavouraoie lor slaughtering , the beef trade was in a very sluggish state , at a decline in tfo currencies obtained on this day se ' nnight of 2 d . p er 8 lbs ., the very highest figure for the best Scots not exceeding 4 s . 4 d . per 8 lbs ., and at which a cleara nce was with difficulty effected . The bullock droves from Norfolk , Suffolk , Essex , and Cambridgeshire were composed ef 600 Scots and horaebreds . From the northern counties we received 500 shorthorns , from the western and midland districts 600 lleretbrds Devons , runts , &c , from the other parts of England 400 of various breeds , from Scotland 60 Scots , » nfl from Ireland TO beasts . The remainder of the sun&l 7 fe A « . a ft ft ¦ . ¦ ¦ *¦ r F

      ** was derived trora abroad and the neighbourhood of the metropolis . The numbers of sheep were a « ai » unusually limited , the deficiency in them , compared with those exhibited at the corresponding raarket-dav in 1845 , being about 16 , 000 head ; hence the mutton trade was again brisk , and last Monday ' s advanced prices were firmly supported . The best Old Dow ™ readily produced 5 s . 6 d . per 8 lbs . In many quarerx allusion has been made to the extremely hish * ric » s at which sheep have been selling here for some time past , but the cause of the present range of curre ncies is easily explained . Our readers will recollect that during the greater portion of 1844 ( owing to the scarcity of keep in our larger agricultural districts the result of an unusually dry summer ) , the grazier *

      were compelled to send forward their sheep , and dig . pose of them at almost any sacrifice . The great losses thus sustained at that period prevented many of the large flock masters from purchasing adequate supplies of lean stock for the then forthcoming season . In addition to these circumstances , the epidemic carried off immense numbers of sheep . The consequence has been that in many parts of the country there ' ig an absolute scarcity of that description of stock , and to exemplify our remarks we may observe that on many farms it is impossible for the stock to consume the large quantities of turnips and other pabulam produced last year ; hence , in those districts where

      sheep are in moderate abundance , the graziers caa scarcely [ afford to dispose of their stock , whatever may be the prices here . This , then , is the principal cause of the present enhanced rates , and which will probably be maintained for some time hence . In order further to strengthen our observations , we bee ; o observe that during last year there were exhibited here nearly three hundred sheep less than in IS a The lew prime lambs on sale this morning sold readily at 7 s . per 8 lbs . Calves , the numbers of which were small , moved off steadily at full prices . The i . ork trade was very steady , at last week ' s quotation lhe supply 01 pigs was moderate .

      Man-chester Corn Market , Saturday , Feb . y . — The trade during the week has been of a more animated character than we had it in our power to notice for some time past , and a fair extent of business has been transacted in flour , chiefly , however , in approved marks of choice quality , without maierial variation from the previous currency . Oats and oatmeal have likewise met a steady sale ; the former at a slight decline in price , but the latter at fully late rates . At our market this morning the demand for wheat was on a very limited scale , without alteration in the prices of this day se ' nnight . The best descriptions of flour continued to meet a tolerably cood sale at our late currency , but inferior and unknown brands were neglected . Oats were in moderate request at a reduction of id . per 45 lbs . Oatmeal of choice quality , on the contrary , fully maintained its previous value .

      Liverpool Cork Market , Mondat , Feb . 0 . —This week we have moderate supplies of British grain , flour , and oatmeal , and we have again a liberal quantity of flour from the United States . The trade has remained in a very inactive state , with prices cenerally tending downwards . The transactions in free wheat have almost entirely consisted of retail purchases by the local millers and dealer ? , who have been able to supply themselves at prices the turn in their favour . Free flour has met a moderate sale at 8 J . per barrel decline . For oats there has been little inquiry , and the best runs of Irish mealing hare been

      sold at 3 s . 8 d . to 3 s . Oil . per -15 lbs . Oatmeal aUo has suffered a slight decline , with a limited demand . The market is plentifully supplied with barley , and all descriptions have been offered on lower terms . Beans and peas have gone off in retail at previous rates . Two or three parcels of wheat , in bond , LaTe changed hands during the week , but at little or no difference from the late quotations . A few hundred barrels of New Orleans partially sour flour hare teen sold at 25 a . per barrel , but no sales are reported in the best quality of United States , which is held at 28 s . to 28 s . 6 d . per barrel .

      Birmingham Corn Exchange , Wedxesiut . — During the present week there has been a free sale of wheat , at an improvement of Is . per quarter dry new red having realised 7 s . 2 d . per 62 lbs . Alaltiii'i barley continues much depresssd , as the supply excels the demand ; for dry grinding the inquirv has increased . Oats firm , and rather tending upwards .

Hull Corn Market , Tuesday . —We had a lair show oi wheat from the farmers , but the great portion in only very poor condition ; such was almost unsaleable ; whilo dry new and old obtained about Is . more money . Factors' sales were most limited , and bonded quite neglected . Spring corn , generally , quite as dear . With mild weather , linseid cakes ate easwv to buy .
