Livaithoox, Feh. 27.—Our advises from Ireland still
report the delivery (*grain from the farmers to have seriously
diminished of late, and the stock of home grown Wheat in
some localities to be nearly exhausted. Supplies of foreign
hreadstuffs, however, end especially Indian Corn, continue
to arrive freely, and prices, in ernsequence, are generally
quoted lower, although their requirements up to neat har-
vest cannot fail to be wry considerable. We have to note a
moderate arrival of Malt and Oats, with a farther good
quantity of Oatmeal coastwise and from Ireland suite
this day week, tut a very wanly fresh supply of Wheat,
either British or foreign. The import of Indian Corr,
however, is large. evaprising 34,744 qrs., with 1,990
bane). of Cora Meal, and 9,578 barrels of Flour from
the United States, exclusive of 3,560 quarters of Bans from
Egypt. Our Corn Exchange to-day having been well et-
teathel by hoists and country millers, who, having p .rtly
worked off purchases mode at the beginning of the month,
came forward mote freely again this morning, during which
the Wheat trade assumed a rather firmer firmer sneer, and
a moderately fait amount of busintu was transacted in the
general qualities of British and tmeign on terms fully equal
to the currency of this day se'nnight.lrish Flour continued
to meet a dull sale at late price., while States and Canadian,
upon an improved dames(*, realised oar last quotations ; and
aeveral panels, IWTII or less damaged, being offer at by 'tee-
th= after the cl,so of the market, were taken at rates pro-
portionate to the injury sustained. Barley, Malt, Beans, and
Fens continued tesenowniewiy at the priers annexed. Oats,
befog more alio& of diorama', declined id. to Id. per 451 b. ;
and Oatmeal, saleable is retail quantities only, was the turn
cheaper. Indies!' Own continues to meets rather extensive
'natively demand, Constant remaining nominally unaltered.

show of Wheat from the country, bar, having nothing stt att.
wise, freak thrashed parcels were taken off readily at a shade
one Saturday's prices ; foreign, at the same time, being in
fair request at that day's rates. Flour, owing to its extreme
scarcity, was sold at an improvement of 6d. per sack extra
