LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE,—This DAY,

(From Messrs. R. MAKIN & SONS' Circular.)
The arrivals up to and since Friday last, contain a liberal
supply of Wheat and Malt, with a few parcels of Barley,
Beans, and Flour roundland ; the former consisting partly of
duty paid foreign Wheat from London : but, exclusive of a
fair quantity of Oatmeal, the receipts of Irish produce are
small. Of foreign grain, wholly from the north of Europe.
the imports of the week are only moderate, and those of-
Flour, chiefly from New Orleans, 4,445 barrels.
Although the weather has become sufficiently cold to check
vegetation, the trade in the leading markets of this district
last week was very inanimate ; which, and the decline in
London yesterday, seems to increase the late depression
complained of here.—We have accordingly to note a further
declension in the value of all descriptions of Wheat to-day,
thereby reducing the best qualities of English, Irish, and
foreign 3d, and inferior descriptions 4d to 6d per 701bs be-
low the rates of this day se'nnight ; which, inducing the
millers to purchase rather more freely, sales to a moderate
extent were effected.

English and Irish Flour receded ls. per sack, and foreign,
paid, 6d. per barrel, with an extremely dull sale for
In bonded Flour the transactions since Friday are
stated to be 400 barrels at 235., and 250 at 235. 6d.
Barley, Malt, and Beans, upon a very limited demand,
were Is. per quarter cheaper ; and Pease hardly supported

late prices.
The holders of Oats, in order to meet the views of buy-
ers, submitted to an abatement of ld to 2d per 451bs, at
which a moderate amount of business resulted.
Oatmeal, on the contrary, was extremely difficult of sale,
although offered at a decline of Gd to is per 240 lbs.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, 3 P.M.
We have scarcely had sufficient demand to-day to cte ti-
tute a market, and we may safely estimate the sales a t less
than 1,000 bales, principally in American descriptions, from
6d. to 7d. The market is considered firm, and prices steady.
