LIVERPOOL. -DEO. 21.
At this day's market there was a fair attendance 0I -
town and country buyers, and a moderate business•ds- istheo
done in wheat and flour for consumption at about Fri of
prices, being id per 701 b, and 6d. per barrel over thos:100
this day week. Oats and oatmeal met with a very...id
sale, and the latter article, both on the spot and for forwl-aa
delivery, was decidedly easier to buy. Barley, beaus,
peas were without change either in value or demend•suce,
dian corn on the spot was held for 6d per quarter adv .er
but floating cargoes could have been bought on is.'

To-day our farmers brought a fair supply of sob
almost entirely new, and the bulk in tender order ,hard
was difficult to sell even at a decline of is ; while fres;ol
good conditioned samp
te les were ready sale at the gtggri
Ds,,
rates of this day week. A modera enquiry, for F°''/
of which our stocks are now much reduced. There 1101
however, a little pause in the trade, which is onlYnao $t
after the late excitement, and is a very usual occurrenpolc
this season of the year. With the new year we D',lll, bag
viw
for a resumption of active operations. Barley, ic„stioil
been neglected, owing to the uncertainty upon the flues to
of the Malt Tax, is likely, with the change of Minist%
attract more attention. Oats are the turn dearer,, nbgr
disposition to speculate. Beans and Peas maintaill,4ter•
value, but the mild weather checks the sale of the "'
Only a limited business passing in Linseed, but Pric.sear
unaltered, and small stocks only in the Port. 'O4" ono
sumption of Cakes is rather affected by the mild 'o7ole
but a limited sale is not unusual towards the close of ore
year. Nothing doing in Rapeseed, but Rape Cakesijf
dearer, on a continued demand for feeding. Bones
