LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE.-Aprillt

. -
The transactions at this morning's market were to a very rno_
derate extent : a few parcels of the choicest Wheats were taken
by the country millers at a reduction of Id. to 2d.; but the town
dealers bought very sparingly, and the market ended dull. Oats
must be noted fully Id. per 451 h. lower, and the quantity forcing
on the market greatly exceeding the demand. Flour and Oat.
meal are each noted 1.. per sack cheaper.

SIANCHESTER CORN MA RKET.—April 11.
The general depression existing in the trade of this town and
the surrounding districts has, of late, considerably restricted the
operations in the Corn trade. ' To-day the market was but thinly
attended, and only such moderate business done as was sufficient
for the supply of immediate wants. Wheat and Oats might
have been bought a shade lower than on this day week. Flour
without alteration. Meal 6d. per load cheaper. For other adj_
cles the inquiry is exceedingly limited.

Sir H. LEES, in consequence of a communi-
cation from Ireland, connected with Protestantism, was
obliged to leave GOULD'S Hotel, Jerrnyn-street, yesterday,
for Dublin.—Morning Paper.

IRISH CORPORATIONS.—It appears that
Lord GORT was excessively anxious to have the Disfrau
chisement Bill extended to Corporations. His Lordship
is well aware that there are no limits to the Freemen,
while the extent of property must limit the Freeholders
of Corporations. If he could have Just contrived to have
slid in this change in the Bill, he hoped to have put out
Mr. SRING RICE from Limerick. We were happy to
find that the Duke of WELLINGTON spoke of hereafter
entering into . the correction of Corporate abuses; this
will indeed be a blessing.—Dublin Morning Register.

An agent to a London insurance-office, in a
town on the borders of this county, has, we understand,
practised the following ingenious device on his insurers:—
Being a tradesman, he has for a number of years been in
the habit of charging his customers in their annual ac-
counts with the amount of their insurance, and they have
been unwise enough to be content with such vouchers, in-
stead of the regular printed forms of receipt supplied by
offices to their agents. This trick was successfully prac-
tised till a short time ago, when one of the parties who
had so paid his money, calling at the office in London to
snake some inquiry respecting his policy, the whole scheme
was discovered,—Brighton Gazette,
