Messrs. Taylor and Brightl_a-circulantlrire4 tbitt the Mntnf
and improvement in pricet;cv_hich we had occasion to report in
our last circular hive since been lost, and Prices 6n all articles
have gone back a full shilling
.during, the week.- We had at
to-day's market a moderate supply of farmers'. wheat, which
millers attempted to buy at
.2s less monq, but Is was quite as
much as was submitted -te: Very little, business done in fo-
reign, but stocks being small and holders firm, we cannot write
the market lower than noted above. A revival of demand is
expected shortly. The sale for fine barley continues good, at
Is decline, but grinding is. less in request. A consumptive sale
for new foreign beans, if bard and dry ; while soft ones are bad
to quit. More doing in the better qualities of while' peas at
our quotations. Oats neglected.: The linseed market is firm,
with only a small amount of transactions. Linseed cakes are
again procurable at lower rates. Nothing doing in_ rapeseed,
while there is a fair demand and sale for rape cakes. Bones
are dearer, and guano more free sale

Livaniroot., Fan. 13.—The arrivals of 3ats and oatntel
from Ireland continue on a liberal scale, but of all other arti-
cles thence and coastwise they are moderate. From foreign
ports there are large supplies of wheat, Egyptian beans, and
American Indian corn ; but they are quite unimportant of
other articles. The exports in the same time being 2,110
quarters of wheat, 9,941 quarters of Indian corn, 1,382 barrels
of corn meal, 407 sacks and 4,765 barrels of flour ; and the
quantities of foreign corn on which duties were paid in the
week ending the Bth inst., were 60,286 quarters of wheats
1,013 quarters of barley, 13,191 quarters of beans, 942 quar-
ters of peas, 22,355 quarters of Indian corn, 450 barrels of corn
meal; and 164,821 barrels of flour. The trade was inanimate
during the past week, and at the close wheat was ld to 2d per
701 b; and flour 6d to is per barrel lower. In. the value- if
oats and oat meal there was no material change, but the inquiry
was very limited. Barley, beans, and peas were neglected.
For Indian corn there was less inquiry, and had buyers appeared
a reduction of 6d to Is per 4801 b would have been conceded.
Indian cornmeal not saleable at more than 14s 6d to 15s per
barrel. At this day's market there was a slender attendance
of dealers and a very limited business transacted. WhOat
again gave way ld:per 701 b, making the decline 2d to 3d on prices of this day week. For oats and oatmeal few buyers
appeared, and the transactions Were quite in retail; at a decline
of Id per 451 b and 6d per load. Barley, beans, and peas were
all dull, and easier to purchase. Flour met a very slow. sale at
a decline of is per barrel on American, and is per sack on
English and Irish. There was no further change in the value
of Indian corn or cornmeal, but the demand was without
animation.
