LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE—Oct. 13.

We had a large supply of Irish Grain fresh up for
this morning's market, and only very few country buyers ;
consequently a goad quantity remained unsold, particularly
the New Wheat, for which we have seldom witnessed a
snore limited demand. All descriptions of this article
were offering 4d. to 6d. per 701 b. below the rates of this
day se'nnight. Prices of Oats were also 2d. per bushel
lower ; at this abatement a pretty good clearance was
made of the finer descriptions, but secondary qualities
were neglected. The transactions in Flour or Oatmeal
Were very light.

" A regulation made by the Prefect of the Depart-
ment of the Seine Inferieure, for the police of the
port of Havre, contains the following notice
" Art. Ist. There shall be established on the north-
west jetty a code of signals, by means of balls, for
the purpose of giving notice of the height of water
in the harbour.

A single ball will be hoisted when there is 11
feet of water; two at the height of 12 feet; three at
the height of 13 feet, and so on until there is 17 feet;
and a flag will point out the fraction of six inches.
" At the ebbing of the water, the same mode of in-
dicating it will be followed in the inverse order,—that
Is, in successively diminishing the number of balls,
until there is in the harbour less than 11 feet water.

" A graduated scale corresponding to the depth of
water in the Channel will be placed against the north
Wall of the jetty, near the vault.
." For the execution of this regulation there has
been placed on the north-west jetty a staff, on which
will be successively hoisted tin balls painted black,
Placed vertically one above another.
" These balls are united in couples, that is, the
first and second for the purpose of pointing out 11
and 12 feet of water, will be 14 inches from each
other; and that the third, indicating 13 feet, is se-
Panted from the second by an interval of .54 inches;
the fourth, which will be coupled with the third, will
be 14 inches apart; and the fifth will be separated
try anothei space of .54 inches, and so on, which will
allow them to be observed with facility : the flag, for
indicating the fraction of half a foot, will be hoisted
tinder the last ball. .
Theie signals can be distinguished with a com-
rnon telescope, at the distance of a league, or a league
Itkid a half from the harbour.
