UNTR Y MARKETS.

LIVERPOOL—Nov. 23.

- • ----
There was a fair attendance of the town and country trade
at this morning's market, but we had only a languid busi-
ness in wheat, which may still be quoted at prices rather
lower. Flour also was still inactive, and the turn lower.
Oats and oatmeal were Id per 451 b and 6d per load cheaper.
Barley, beans, and peas without material alteration, but
buyers have the advantage. For Indian corn there WAS
a slow sale at a decline.
