New York, 1 from New Orleans, and 1 from Bombay.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, MAY 24.

The imports of Grain, Flour, and Oatmeal, from Ireland and
Coastways have been very small since this day week, but of Wheat
from Foreign ports the supplies have continued to a fair extent, of
course going into bond for the present.
The weather during the whole of the past week has been unsea-
sonably cold, and although for the last two days it has been warmer,
the drought has continued unabated tluoug;hout this district;
hitherto, except to the gardens, probably no irretrievable injury has
been done; Wheat bears dry weather well, and its appearance on
the ground is not so unfavourable, but the pastures and crovi of all
spring Grain and Grass must now be suffering severe injury, which,
however, immediate fine warm rains may yet retrieve, and little or
no speculative feeling has as yet been excited in the Corn trade;
sales have been very languid since Tuesday last here, and in all our
country markets, for W heat, Malt, Barley, Beans and Pease; but
• for Oats, Oatmeal, and Flour the demand has been rather better at
our list quotations.
A decrease of Is 6d per quarter on Oats and Beans is the only
alteration in the duties on Grain from fo sign ports since Friday
last, and it is very likely that a decrease of 4s per quarter iu the
duty on Wheat will occur next Friday. Several parcels of Flour,
in bond, have been taken for export, and almost the whole of the
foreign Oats now in bond here (about 7 or 8000 qrs.) have changed
hands, part for export and part on speculation, at our quotations.
• The stocks in bond in the United Kingdom on the sth instant,
were, from official documents, 41,227 qrs. Wheat, 9325 qrs. Barley,
245,749 qrs. Oats, 3058 qrs. Rye, 6371 qrs. Pease, 11,936 qrs. Beans,
and about 16,000 barrels of Flour, since greatly increased ; of Wheat
here, in bond, we have about 60,000 qrs., of all other articles the
stocks are quite trivial In London the stock of Wheat at present,
in bond, is estimated at 100,000 qrs.
At this day's market sales were etrected to a very limited extent,
of Wheat at a reduction of 2d to 3d per 701 b, also of all other arti-
cles in the trade at barely our last quotationS, except for Oats in
bond, which obtained an advance of 2tl per 451 b.
