MONDAY EVNING.
There is no change in the market as regards prices since the
above report: the demand from the trade has been fair, but nothing
is reported for export, and on the whole the market is dull. The
sales for the last two days are about 7000 bales of all kinds, to-day's
business includes 500 Surat from 5d to Bd, with a few Brazil (which
are scarce) at full rates, and the remainder American, fid to 9d

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, OCT. 12.
Since this day se'naight we have had increased supplies of new
Oats and Oatmeal from Ireland, but of other articles of British
produce the imports have been small.--Of Foreign Wheat the
quantity reported for the -week does not exceed 2,800 quarters. We
have continued to experience a good demand for old Wheat, the
business comprising purchases both for Ireland and the North of
England, and the improvement in prices, noted at the close of last
week, has been quite maintained. Two or three parcels of new
have arrived from Ireland, the quality better than previous imports :
they have sold at ps; the inferior samples are offering from 8s 6d
down to 6s per 70 lbs.—Barrel Flour has, also, met a good sale at
previous rates. The new Oatmeal has been pressed for sale, at
Manchester, to-day, at 85s to 36s per 240 lbs, for the best runs, and
this having an effect on Oats, new have moved with difficulty at
3s 8d to 3s 10d for kiln-dried, undried Is 3d to 3s 6d, black 3s to
3s 2d ; old Foreign are worth 3s gd to 4s 3d per 45 lbs.—Old Barley
is scarce and unaltered in value. A little Irish new, very inferior in
quality, has been sold at 4s per 69 1b5.--Beans are in small supply,
and range from 45s to 548.—Peas fram 43 to 483 per. imPerial quarter.
