LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE.--play
To-day's market was very thinly attended by ettber
town or country buyers. Wheat with difficultybrought
our former currency, and the market ended heavy. ci
small improvement of about Fl. per 451bs. was obtaine
for a few fine Oats ; but, on the whole, they were very
dull of sale, and no improvement on the general rung"
Beans are about Is. per quarter dearer. Flour sold rebel;
more freely, at last week's rates. In prices of other
Grain no change.

A LUNAR GUIDE-POST.—We fell in with a
Bushman and his wife. On questioning theui
about the probability of finding water in 01
route, the hunter pointing to a certain part °
the heavens, told us, that if we rode hard, l're,
should find water by the time the moou stoo°
there. This indicated a distance of not less than
fifty miles. Yet it was a consolation to lwri
that we should find water even within that disc
tance. Rewarding our informant with a hit
tobacco, we pushed on with redoubled speed'''.

CONSUMPTION OF COALS IN THE •--1
TROPOLIS.—The quantity of coals consume", "of
the Metropolis is about a million and a hall a
chaldrons annually. The consumption du r:-;
the latter years of the last war, was aboll'•
r 5
a
million chaldrons a-year ;in which the llieti„
of the coal pits, and the colliers in the Or
anticipated a considerable reduction on the re.tiea ld
of peace. The quantity, however, reill3l,lloot
pretty steady for three or four years ; when, 311
the year 1820, owing to the introduction of goo
lights, and the rapid increase of steam-vessels
the Thames, the quantity began greatly t°
crease ; and, in the course of about five or '‘,o
years, that increase has been nearly 50;ou
chaldrons.
