LIVERPOOL, JAN. 6.—There were a good many local and
neighbouring millers at ourmarket to-day, butin consequence
of the stoppage on most of the railway lines, few attended
from any great distance. The demand for wheats of all
descriptions, notwithstanding, eontinned swithout any re-
mission of-activity ; the sales, including parcels taken to bold
over, are.coraiderable, and we must note an advance of fully
4d per bushel upon the currencies of Tuesday. For flour the
consumptive inquiry is good, and speculators have bought to
a fair extent, the improvement averaging le td per barrel.
Barley is rather dull, and withoct amendment in value ; but
'beans are agsin held for Is per,qr advance. Oats are Id per
bushel. ar.d oatmeal Is 6d per lead, higher; the. latter is in
increased request for the country, and, even state advanced
price, speculative inquiries are still directed (otitis article.
Indian corn Is per quarter dearer; some parcels have been
taken for investment, but the :buaiaess with consumers has
been only moderate.
