CORN-EXCH AN GE-310N DA V.
The past week's arrival of English Wheat and Oats have been
moderately good, th se of Malt extensive, but those 01 all other kinds
of grain of home produce, including Flour, have been trifling. From
Ireland and Scotland the receipts of grain 11ve been limited ; but
from abroad upwards of 19,000 quarters of Wheat and 20,000 barrels
of Flour have been landed in bond--the latter being the largest im-
port we have had to report in any one week dating thew hole of the
present year. Fresh up only a moderate supply of English Wheat
came to band coastwise, as well as by land carriage and sample ; yet
its general quality was tolerably good, especially as relates to tit,
parcels received from Essex and Kent. The stands belie; rather scantily

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool on Saturday were from
4,000 to 5,000 bales. The market was steady, without altera-
tion of prices.
The accounts from the various parts of the country, re-
ceived this morning, and for several days past, refer to an
increased demand for all descriptions of agricultural produce,
especially for horses, lambs, sheep, and cattle. The grain
markets, also, are represented as being firm.
The mercantile letters received this morning from the
United States are, upon the whole, of a more favourable
character. The following extract from papers before us
are well worth attentive perusal, as indicating the extent of
trade that might be carried en were the corn tariff passed
into law:—

" The trade between this country and Great Britain, both
in regard to imports and exports, exceeds those from, or to,
all the rest of the world. About two-thirds of our aggregate
exports go to Great Britain and her dependencies, and more
than one-half of our aggregate imports come from Great
Britain and her dependencies. There are no oi her two coun-
tries in the work so intimately connected in their commer-
cial re.ation,, or by ties of consanguinity, as England and
America, and a rupture between the United 'totes and Great
Britain would, therefore, be more unnatural, and attend, ..d
with more serious consequences, than between any other two
nations in existence." _ _
