LIVERPOOL—FEB, 17.
At to-day's market there was the usual attendance of
town dealers and several millers from the interior. Wheat
met with a fair inquiry from our local dealers, as well as
for shipment to Ireland, and a moderate extent of business
resulted at Tuesday's prices for American red and finest
qualities of white, but at a decline of ld to 2d per bushel
on middling and inferior qualities. Sack flour slow retail
sale, at barely last week's prices. Oats must be noted
jd
to id lower, and for oatmeal no demand. Beans and bar-
ley unchanged. ludian corn in good demand, at 31 per
qr. advance on yellow and mixed, and 9d on white, the
two former readily bringir,g 348 and 359, and the latter 36a
6d to 37s per 4814 ; the, export demand still continues.

LEE GS, FEB, 17.
We have a fair supply of wheat : good dry qualities are
held very firmly at full prices, while inferior and damp
sorts are as difficult to sell as before, and the business pass-
Mr, only limited. Barley makes. late rates. Beans fully
as dear. Other articles as before.
Average prices of grain—Wheat, 568 3d ; bailey, 470
6d ; oats, 25s 5d ; beans, 41s 10d ; peas, 40s 01 ;
rye, —s. d.

lIITLL—FIB. 17.
To-day we had a short supply of English wheat, which
met slow sale at the rates of last market day. Foreign
wheat very dull. Barley, and all other articles without
change. Linseed very firm, oil dearer, and cakes are ulls
altered, crushers resisting the decline.
