CORN.

LIVERPOOL, Fan. I.—One market to-day was very thinly
attended; the sale of wheat was difficult in the extreme. only a
few retail transactions could be effected at a decline of 3d to 4d
per bushel under the rates of Tuesday, and before the close of
business hours most holders would have accepted a greater decline,
the fall in Wakefield contributing to the increase of depression.
Flour continued. very unsaleable, though holders would have taken
Is 6d per barrel and 2s per sack less money. Barley must be
quoted ad to 3d per bushel, beans 2s per quarter. oats ld to 2d
per bushel, oatmeal 2s per load lower, with scarcely any business
reported. A fair quantity of Indian corn has been taken, chiefly
for holding over, purchases being confined to mixed American,
for which 36s per 480 lbs was accepted, and this price refused at
the close. White Indian corn fell 2s per quarter, but was neg-
lected, as there were no consuming buyers.

MANCHESTER, Dot. 31.—There was a languid market to-day
and foreign wheat was 3d to 4d per bushel lower and quite neg
lected ; English at the same time being 25 to 3s per quarter
cheaper and almost unsaleable. The demand for flour was
extremely limited, and buyers succeeded in supplying themselves
with what they required at 2s per sack decline. Oatmeal sold at
very low and irregular rates, and we quote this article 2s per load
cheaper. Oats were also 3d per bushel lower, and in limited
request. Both English and foreign beans were likewise each is
per quarter lower; but in barley there was no change. Peas were
quite a drug.
WAKEFIELD, FEB. I.—A good show of wheat to-day. The
wheat trade dull; choice parcels 3s to 4s, others 48 to 5s lower;
business passing very limited. Barley and beans Is per quarter,
oats id per stone, and shelling is per load cheaper.
WISBECH, FEB. 2.—We are moderately supplied with grain
of all kinds at this day's market. The peace question gains
ground, and in consequence great nervousness has resulted, but
which might have been expected. The farmers are not free
sellers at the decline, but where sales have been effected a fall of
3s to 4s per quarter from last week must be quoted. Oats, beans,
and barley each Is to 2s per quarter cheaper.
NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, FEB 2.—At the market this
morning we had nu exceedingly large supply of wheat from the
farmers, of which a fair clearance was effected at a decline of 4a to
5s per quarter. In south country and foreign scarcely a transac-
tion occurred, as factors would not give way to the extent
required by the millers. Flour is very unsettled. Rye may be
quoted 2s to 3s lower, and in limited request. Malting barley
less enquired for, and only the choicest samples maintain their
valise, other sorts being again offered on rather cheaper terms,
without commanding much attention. In malt we have little
variation to note. Beans and peas severally 2s lower, and in very
slow demand. Oats were scantily supplied by the growers, but
the arrivals coastwise continuing beyond the present require-
ments, only a slow sale was eicperienced even at a further declen-
sion-of is per quarter.
CORK, FEB. 2.—Flour receded Is per cwt. this week, and the
advantage continues with the buyers. Coarse foods are a drug.
Foreign wheats declined 2s to 3s per barrel, and Indian corn 108
to 13s per-ton. There is no confidence, and no speculative pur-
chasers appear.
