SUPPLEMENT TO IMF Xiberpoot - ztai barb+ SECOND EDITION. TUESDAY, MARCH 7, 1854, Two o'cLoor, LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET.—This DAY. The entries of Grain and Flour into this port, coastwise or from Ireland, since Tuesday last s Are moderate, and of Oatmeal f a i r i n am o u nt. Considering the lateness of the season, the American arrivals of Flour and Indian Corn are liberal, but of Wheat from the States, as well as te En Continental Europe and Egypt, the imports during ne Past week are rather light ; and, with a cargo or two 0 Maize 'from the latter source, and several parcels of /lour from Belgium, Spain, Trieste, and Marseilles, we have little more foreign produce fresh in for to-day. The market was much stronger to-day, and though there was not a large trade, Wheat and Flour partially l'ecovered the decline of Friday, but Indian Corn and other articles remain much the same as at the close of the Week.
