XCIIANGE, OcT. 8.

The arrivals of the past three days 'are scanty from all quar-
ters; and the shipments hence of Indian Corn, Corn Meal, and
Flour, so far this week, exceed the imports considerably.
. .

. .
Although rather more firmness has characterised the trade
during. the interval since Tuesday, no great amount of business
transpired; the transactions applying chiefly to Flour, which
has been in good request and generally held for some improve-
ment.

Our market having been again well attended this morning
by country millers, English and Irish new, and the general
runs of Foreign Wheats were in moderate request, and a few
more parcels of the latter having been taken for Ireland, each
of these descriptions realised a further advance of 2d. per 701 b.
As of English or Irish Flour we have scarcely any offering, the
quotations of such are little more than nominal at present;
meanwhile most descriptions of American continued to move
in various directions, although from the bulk remaining here
it is difficult to select any large proportion of such as is en-
tirely exempt from some imperfections : importers, notwith-
standing, required Is. per barrel over the advance of Tuesday,
which was partially but not readily acquired.
A few lots of prime English Malting Barley have been sold
at 395. to 40s. per qr., and Grinding samples supported late
prices. Malt, Beans, and Pease merely sustained our last cur-
rency. In Oats or Oatmeal we have no change to note.
The best qualities of Indian Corn met rather less inquiry to-
day, and declined Is. per qr. ; feeding parcels, however, being
still in good demand, fu!ly maintained previous rates; whilst
Corn Meal, though readily saleable, receded 6d. to Is. per brl.
