The A. O. F. Core, has received the following report from their New York correspondenta, E. A. Pierce & Co. The market, in its present phase, seems to be more or leas meaningless. We do not think that there is any important liquidation on the way but, it is equally difficult to find any signs of accumulation..
Wheat: The market is inactive and steady, in sympathy with the Corn market owing to beneficial rains. Winter wheat is still dry in the North-West.
Cotton: Offerings have been absorbed by the Trade on scale-down limite. The weather continuen to be favourablë,
