LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE. FEB. 13

The arrivals into this port during the week ending yesterilay
furnish a good supply of Malt, Oats, and Oatmeal, with a
moderate quantity of Barley and Flour, coastwise and from
Ireland: the imports from the United States containing a fair
accession of Indian Corn ; and those from the Black Sea and
Mediterranean ports upwards of 10,000 quarters of Wheat, in-
cluding 4,280 quarters of Beans from Egypt.
Excessive dulness having pervaded nearly all departments of
the Corn trade this morning, we have to note an extremely lan-
guid sale for Wheat of all descriptions, and a decline generally
of 2d. to 3d. per 701 b. from the rates of this day week.
Flour was also very difficult to dispose of, and all brands of
States and Canadian receded fully Is. per barrel.
Barley and Malt, owing to increased supplies, were the turn
cheaper.

CORN
We have a further goc
parcels of Irish Oats and
ply of other produce. either Coastwise or tiom Ireland.—The
import of Foreign Wheat is through the Mediterranean, and of
Indian Corn, chiefly from the States, each to a fair extent,
while the quantity of Flour, in the past three days, is trifling in
the extreme.—The imports of Indian Corn into this place du-
ring the last ten days, amount to 29,086 quarters, and the ex-

Influenced by declining prices in the leading markets of this
country and Ireland during the week, and the absence of de-
mand from the interior, with little inquiry. for floating cargoes,
or inclination to purchase on the spot for investment, our local
buyers having manifested more than ordinary precaution in
their dealings, and since Tuesday, most articles of the trade
have been further slightly depressed in value : importers, how-

not appeared eager to force .

At the opening of our market to-day, the Wheat trade conti-
nued to exhibit a dull aspect, and subsequently sales progressed
slowly at a decline in fine qualities of Id., all other descriptions
of English, Irish, and Foreign, receding 24. per 701 b. below
Tnesday's quotations, without any redeeming features at the
close of business.—Home-made and Irish Flour, the general
marks of which being inferior and very unsaleable, prices were
extremely irregular anti nominally lower : American Flour,
likewise, was in very limited request, and both States and Ca-
nadian 6d. per barrel cheaper.
Barley, prime Malting, upon a moderate demand, supported
late prices, whilst grinding samples and Malt, generally decli-
ned Is. per qr.—Beans, commanding little attention, must be
noted 6d., and Pease Is. per qr. lower.—Oats being rather more
saleable, maintained our last currency : Oatmeal, on the con-
trary, being taken very sparingly by consumers, was rather de-
pressed in value, several good parcels not exceeding 235. per
load. _ _ _

Indian Corn, participating in the general depreciation of
other articles, receded 6d. per qr. again to-day, and was in more
limited request than usual at the reduction.
