THE CORN TRADE.--LIVERTOOL, TUESDAY, APRIL 7.
—There is no change in the duties to report. The arrivals
from Ireland continue on the most limited scale, and likewise
coastwise, with the exception of barley and malt. The
trade for all free produce has continued in a very languid
state, the demand being restricted to small parcels for pre-
sent use, without any material change in prices. There has
been no demand for bonded wheat ; but a few inquiries were
experienced for flour, and 1,500 barrels New Orleans were re-
ported to have changed hands at about 24s per barrel. After
market, on Friday, 14,000 bushels handsome American wheat
were sold by auction at 6s. 7d. per 701 b. At our Corn Ex -
, change this morning there was a good attendance of the
trade, and very small show of samples of wheat and oats,
but fair of all other articles. There was a fair consumptive
demand for wheat, at an advance of Id. to 2d. per 701 b. on
prices of this day week. Oats were ld. per 451 b. dearer, and
in request. Malt, barley, beans, peas, and Indian corn were
without change, and in moderate demand. Flour met a fair
sale at previous rates, but meal was dull, though not cheaper.
For wheat and flour in bond there were no inquiries.
BARNET FAlL—This cattle fair was held yesterday ;
it lasts three days. The supply of cattle was good, but sold

house lambs, 6s. to Is. per stone ; ewes and lambs were sold
at prices varying from 40e. to 50e. a couple. Pigs were
