THE LIVERPOOL DEPUTATION TO THE

PREMIER..

A deputation from Liver_
1, consisting of the
Mayor, Mr. W. Brown, M.P., Mr. Chapman, Mr. Stuart,
Mr. A. H. Wylie, Mr. Hon all, Mr. H. Hormby, Mr.
Niehol, and Ur:Turner had an interview to-day with Lord
John Russell, in Downing-street, in order to represent to him
lordship. the present distressed condition of the manufactny.
rag and commercial interesh of the country. In reply to
the representations of the deputation, Lord John Russell
is understood to have expressed the deep sympathy
felt by the government for the numerous .
which were at present suffering from the effects of
the panic and distrust so generally prevailing. The govern-
ment, he said, had anxiously weighed every measure of re-
lief that had been proposed, and they did not preclude I
themselves from further considering any suggestions that
might be offered ; but hitherto every description of inter-
ference that had been proposed was likely, in their opinion.
to bring on a recurrence of the present evil, in an aggra-
vated shape, at a future time.

CIEENCIATER, Oct. 18.—We continue well supplied with
Wheat, in which the trade ia rather flat to-day, and lees

131)(0A, Oct. 6.—We continue without anything being
done besides the small sales to the millers ; still holders are
very firm, and high in their demand for prism soft Polish.
HiMARRO, Oct. 14.—Prices have advanced 2.. to 3s. per
qr. for Wheat. Wheat, Polish, 150 to 160; Mark. and
Brunswick, 150 to 160: Mecklenburgh and Pomerania, 150

136 ; Vetches, 110 to 140 ; Rapeseed, 160 to 170.
KONIOSBFRO, Oct. B.—lt daily becomes more certain that
the yield of the late Weed has been overrated ; and, the
late Potato crops being almost entirely lost, our corn prime
are likely to rise shortly. We continue to be without sup-
plies, and we rb not believe that our stocks of Tares and
Pees exceed 20 lasts, whilst we had in former years some
thousands. In some parts of the interior there seem to be no
Potatoes at all ; and as Pule* must be substituted for the
same, this article will be much sought after. We do not,
therefore, expect any supplies of oonorquence, except Wheat
and Rye. Our Wheat prices continue high, and about 160
lasts hare been bought for shipment to Holland, for which
purpose prices equal to 50s. free on board for good 1281 be. old
Wheat have been paid. It is reported that there are orders
here for Scotland, which ore limited as high as 61.. per qr.
free on board for new Wheat. Our accounts from Poland
and Russia inform us likewise of the reappearance of the
Potato disease in those countries; and, as this root is the
principal food of the people there, this must have the effect
of keeping supplies beck and prices high.
MARSZILLEA, Oct. 11.—There has been a rather better
feeling in the Corn trade during the last few days, and prices
have advanced about Is. 6d. upon our late quotations. Ar-
rivals from the Black Sea are incessant, and yet the whole of
our importations gradually run off for the country.
Rogrocx, Oct. 11.—The little corn which comes forward
of the new crop is eagerly taken at advancing prices: good"
new Wheat cannot be put free on board under 455. to 465.
Barley, 255. 6d. to 28s. There are orders here from Holland,
Belgium, and the Rhine, which are, however, unexecutable
from the want of supplies.
&terror, Oet. 11.—Our stocks of old line Wheat are
nearly exhausted, end a reduction in prices is not at all
likely. Our supplies are hardly sufficient to meet the con-
sumptive demand. The only purchases which were made
last Friday were for Berlin account, and the prices which
were paid were equal to 484. per an free oft board. There
are vary few Peas offering, for which holden' s.. asking lees
prices. Barley and Oat. none. Rye again higher, and
fetches 33r. to 319. per or. 0 wiog to the want of food for
the cattle, our small stocks of Rye's:mai goes off by degrees.
Tatters, Oct. 4. —Our Wheat market has been supported
of late, in consequence of some demand, ehir fly for the supply
of the Austrian troops in Italy. Indian Corn has advanced
considerably, and good quality of Ibraila must be quoted at
WI. to 301. ; the general opinion appears to be that prices
111
are now more likely to advance than decline.

POTATOES.—ANDoSea, Oct. 16.—Potatoes are
rising rapidly in price. Beet red-nosed Kidneys, 9a. to 10s. ;
Jersey. blue and red, Bs. to 9s. ; round Shawn and Lemons,
86. to Bs. 64. per sack, being le. per sack dearer.

Boxcaaren, Oct. 16.—The supply is somewhat limited,
and the demand being being brisk, fully last week's prices
have been obtained ; those for pig feeding are very scarce,
and high prices obtained. Prince Regents, 7s. 3d. to 9s. ;
American natives, 7s. to 9s. 3d. ; Breadfruits, 9e. ; Shays,
51. fid. to 7s. ; small ditto, 5,. 6d. to 6e.
Larne, Oct. 15.—The supplies are rather larger this week,
and prices about the same. Best Warps, la. 9d. to le. 104. ;
Sands, Is. sd. to la. 6d. ; small, Is. lid. to Is. 2d. per 421 b.
o
s2CMDERLAND, Oct. 16.—A great portion of the Potato
crop has been secured in excellent condition, and with few,
if any, wore failures than in ordinary year,. Prices remain
steady, at from 10d. to 13d. per peck.
CHEESE.—CnEarEa FAIL—An unusually large
quantity was pitched. Buyers were very scarce, and prices
were much depreciated. The decline front last fair averaged
from Ss. to 6e. per cwt. luferior dairies sold from 48e. to
50s. ; middling, from 501. to 5.5 e. ; and the best qualities
from 555. to 60s per cwt. Few if any dairies sold for more
than the latter figure. A large proportion of the Cheese
remained unsold.

HA Y. —SMITHFIELD, Two Clock.—Messrs. Cooper
and Davis, Hay and Straw Salesmen, report the trade brisk,
at the following quotations :
Patna* Meadow 70. to 80a I loam r. to —a. I &raw.. 2EB So 33.
Inferior Ws. to 6.86. I Clovor . 76a. to 068

CATTLE, &C.—BRDA LE FORTNIGHT FAIL—The
supply of Bests of all descriptions was only limited, and
the quality generally harrier, nevertheless fat Callers pretty
well sold up at last fornight's quotations. Holding Cattle
continue to decrease in value; the demand also in very slow.
Of Sheep there was e very good show, which ware sold up
at previous rates.

CtIESTER Pita.—A large exhibition of stock, particu-
larly of Sheep and Piga. Good Beef fetched from M. to
