There has been a very steady and rather increasing demall

throughout 21:

week, more particularly from the trade, and

quotations of all descriptions hare been fully supported. Ame-
rican, of middling quality, with good staple, has become very
scarce, and commands a proportionately high price. In Bra-
zil a steady business has been done at full rates. Considerable
sales have been made in Egyptian, at irregular and rather lower
prices, and principally to speculators. The market has become
very bare of Surat and other descriptions of East India, which
command extreme quotations. Speculators have taken 9260
American, 200 Pernam, 400 Bahia, 5720 Egyptian, and 760
Surat, there have been taken for export, 3350 American, 600
Pernam, 40 Bahia, 1090 Surat, and 30 Madras. There was a
good demand to-day, and the sales reach 12,000 bales, at firm

rates, 6000 being on speculation.

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET,
FRIDAY, AUGUST 13.
We had a good attendance at this morning's market, includ-
ing some distant buyers. Wheats were firmly held at 3d. to
4d. per bushel advance, the improvement previously attained,
upon Tuesday's prices ; but to-day being exceedingly fine, the
millers were less active, under the impression that, the change,
if permanent, may aid them in future purchases; several fur
ther large parcels, notwithstanding, were again taken by spe-
culative buyers, and the trade closed steadily at the amend-
ment. Flour was rather easier in value than yesterday, but
must be quoted 6d. per barrel dearer than last market days
with a limited sale. In Barley or Malt we have no change to
note. Oats and Oatmeal met rather more inquiry, but cannot
be noted (hearer. Beans 6d. per qr. higher. Pease unvaried.
Indian Corn, ex warehouse, still in retail demand, but quite as
dear. Saveral floating cargoes sold at full prices. In other
articles no alteration. We annex Tuesday's quotations :

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET,

FRIDAY. AUGUST 13

A slightly improved inquiry has existed for fine Beef this
week, at extreme rates ; but ordinary and middling sorts are
still neglected. Pork is hardly so firmly held, some of the late
arrivals of French having been pressed on the market without
effect. The change to cooler weather has taken the demand
partially of Bacon, but, as the stock is light, there is no change
in prices. Lard is in moderate request, about 50 tons are
reported as sold, at 585., ex ship. Grease Butter rather more
inquired for, without alteration in value.
