LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANCSE.—Jan. S.
/
Since this day week the imports of Grain, pat ticularly
of Oats, have been to a fair amount, and have been met
by a regular demand, nearly equal thereto, although the
supplies from our own farmers have been also pretty libe-
ral; in the prices generally of every description of Grain,
no alteration can be noted since the last circular. Bonded
Wheat and Flour continue to meet sales for export at fully
the prices last noted, and the stocks thereof are rapidly di-
minishing.—At this day's market, which was but thinly
attended, sales only to a limited extent were made of
Wheat, at fully the prices last noted ; the arrivals of Oats
rather surpassing the demand, the few sales made thereof
were at a decline of about id. per 451 b. Malt and Malt-
ing Barley must be quoted ls. quarter lower. In other
articles very little was done, and no alteration can be
noted in their value.

It may be observed, that the imports of Wheat and rlour
from Ireland and coastwaya, do not vary much from those
of the corresponding quarter last year, that in Oats and
Oatmeal there is a small increase, but that there is a great
deficiency in Barley. Of this Importation almost the
whole has gone off readily into consumption as it arrived,
and very little has been warehoused ; the Stocks of old
Foreign Wheat are pretty accurately estimated up to the
Ist instant, to be, reduced to about 30,000 quarters--in-
eluding which, with the Irish and British up to that date,
may amount altogether to about 50,000 quarters--of Oats
about 22,000 quarters—of Oatmeal about 8,000 sacks
—of Indian Corn about 16,000 quarters—of other
articles never smaller ;—of Bonded Grain about 27,000
quarters of Wheat, (including about 8,000 quarters im-
ported previous to Ist July last), about 22,000 barrels of
Flour (three-fourths sour), about 4,300 quarters Beans,
and about 1,800 quarters Rye. The stocks here at this
period last year were about 56,000 quarters of free Wheat,
and about 60,000 quarters of free Oats, besides about
132,000 quarters of Wheat in bond, which was increased
during the spring to about 180,000 quarters, and which
was almost all released in July last, and has since gone
most extensively into consumption. Considering that the
exports of Grain from Ireland to London, to the Clyde,
and to many ports of this kingdom, have been very much
greater than usual during the last quarter, and that we
have also had into this port our full share, it is hardly
to be expected that our imports from Ireland for the
current quarter will equal those of the past one, this
market holding out less encouragement than many
others for Irish importations ; and as the supplies
from our own Farmers will now become less liberal,
a gradual improvement in prices during the Spring may be
confidently anticipated, as we have no stocks of any kind
of Grain in the hands of speculators, and of Old Wheat
(which, from the extraordinary open winter we have had,
will continue requisite to mix with the new), the rapid
diminution can in no way be supplied,:until some alteration
occurs in the Corn Laws, on which subject it would be pre-
sumptuous at present to offer any opinion as to the result
of future discussions in Parliament, particularly after the
great political changes which have occurred, and which
appear still in progress.

THE LATE EXECUTION.-THREATEN.

ING LETTERS.

Mr. Sizer, one of the prosecutors of the two
men recently executed at Horsemonger-lane
Gaol, has been excessively annoyed by a set of
ruffians, who frequently pass his shop, calling
out " There's the murderer." He has also re-
ceived sonic threatening letters, which were cal-
culated to inspire his family with terror for his
safety. The following letter from some unknown
miscreant, was received by Mr. Sizer on Tues-
day evening. It was directed to " Mr. Sizer,
laceman, &e.'-Newington-causeway." Under-
neath the superscription were these two scanda-
lous sentences :—" The Murderer of two young
Men.—l warn the customers not to go to his
shop."
The following is a copy of the letter :

" January 8, 18:'.)8.
" Murderer—The remarks you have been the
occasion of getting into the paper are false. lam
no villain, but an injured woman, thirsting for re-
venge on the head of a blood-stained murderer—for
such thou art, malignant wretch! Would no mercy
touch thy unfeeling heart, nor thy wife's ? Had
you but made allowance for the errors of a youHg
man, he might have lived to be a blessing to his
family; for he convinced the world, in his last mo-
ments, that he was truly penitent. Oh, God ! may
thy just judgments and terrors overtake the mur-
derer who was the occasion of my friend perishing
on a scaffold. Remember, I am a woman, who
loved the man, and from the very bottom of my
soul swear to revenge his death by yours. Think
not to escape me; for though I will not wilfully run
into danger myself, or endanger any one else who
may be near you, yet be assured the first opportu-
nity you shall be sent to punishment; and how can
you expect mercy from Heaven, when you have
shown none yourself? I find that so far from wish-
ing to save his life, you signed for his death. .Ask
yourself if you have not committed actions worse
than his, though, perhaps, not considered such with
the world; but I shall yet live to see you and your
hard and cruel wife suffer, for I hear you laugh at
my threats; but remember a day will come when I
shall have my revenge gratified."

The above epistle was forwarded to the Magi-
strates of Union Hall, by Mr. Sizer, and iinme-
diate steps will be taken to discover the author.

It is said that the banking interest in Scotland
are extremely anxious for the preservation of the small note
y, and that endeavours arc
Government in favour of it, by sy;

pro-
positions for placing the security of the holder of that part
of their circulation beyond all doubt. The bankers are
willing, it is said, to deposit Exchequer-bills to the full
amount of all the notes they may issue under the value of 51.
The difficulty-, however, will be, as the circulation of small
notes is to cease next year throughout England, to get
over the implied pledge Ministers have given, to assimilate
the circulation of both countries, and to meet the com-
plaints which will be made by the English bankers if their
competitors in Scotland are allowed advantages which they
do not possess„,
