[ADVERTISEMENT.] - Holloway's Pills.—Disorders of the
Head.—During winter head complaints are ap to afflict the
old, unhealthy, and debilitated. Giddiness, dimness of sight,
or a fixed pain in the hen 1, demand instant attention, or
serious consequences will soon follow. For this class of
Diseases, Holloway's Pills are unrivalled, both for warding
off the premonitory symptoms, and likewise relieving the
graver diseases, Apoplexy or Paralysis, which often come on
after repeated warnings have been neglected, or when the
early symptoms have not been removed. They improve di-
gestion and purify the blood. Many testimonials daily bear
witness to the curative properties of these Pills,, which cannot
do harm, but must invariably produce beneficial results by
expelling all impurities tivra the entire system.

LIVERPOOL-JAN. 3.

The arrivals from Ireland are liberal of oats, oatmeal,
and flour, but light of other articles. From foreign ports
and from Canada there have been reported 14,097 quarters
of wheat, 1,900 qrs of barley, 5,616 qrs of beans, 10,723
qrs of Indian corn, 4,633 sacks and 14,211 barrels of flour.
The exports comprise 401 qrs of wheat, • 390 qrs of peas,
470 qrs of Indian corn, 860 sacks and 270 barrels of flour.
The trade has been moderate during the week, and the
prices of most articles remain unchanged. Weather mild
and open. We had a thin attendance of the trade at the
market this morning, and wheat met a limited consump-
tive emand at no improvement in our quotations of last
Tuesday's rates. Flour was again restricted. Oats and
oatmeal a slow sale, and both supported late quotations.
The amount of business transacted in Indian corn was ra-
ther less, and the turn in favour of buyers. Beans declined
6d on previous rates, and peas without alteration. Barley
brought former prices in the sales made.
