Surats 34d to bid, and the rest Americans, chiefly from 54d to 74d.

The business done by the trade to-day has again been only to
a moderate extent, but speculators having purchased 500 bags
Americans and SOO Surats, has swelled the total sales up to 3500
bags., Prices are without material change, ahhougo in some in-
stances they are rather easier than in the beginning of the week.

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, JUNE 8.
(From the Circular of Messrs. James Scutt 5- Son.)
.

The imports of Oats and Oatmeal from Ireland:and of Wheat,
Flour, and Beans, from foreign ports, have been to a fair extent
since Tuesday last, and the demand has continued very moderate
for every article in the Corn Trade here, and in our country mar-
kets, at barely the prices then quoted, and in some instances a re-
duction of Id to 2d per respective bushel has been submitted to on
Baltic Wheat and on Irish Oats.

The duty on Wheat, from foreign ports, increased on Friday last
Is per quarter ; on Flour, about 7id per barrel; an on Peas, Is fld
per quarter ; on other Grain no alteration duty 23s sd had been
previously paid here during the week on about 16,400 quarters of
Wheat, and on about 2000 barrels of Flour, and on about isoo
quarters of Barley; doubtful of seeing any speedy reduction in
the duties, or any alteration in the Corn laws before the next
harvest be ascertained, the prospects for which, though generally
noticed in the public papers as very favourable, and already very
variously and dubiously reported, by compitent observers,
throughout this district, particularly for Wheat, but it is as yet too
early to form any decided opinion on this subject : very few
transactions have occurred in bonded Grain or Flour, except two
cargoes of Egyptian Beans, reported to have changed hands on the
passage at about 21s 6d, and prices thereof continue as quoted

below.
The stocks now in this port, free for home use, are estimated at
about 70,000 quarters of Wheat, and at about 8,000 barrels of Flour,
and about 5,000 quarters of Beans, including the foreign recently
released ; and about 64,000 quarters of Wheat, about 104,000 barrels
of Flonr, and about 11,550 quarters of Beans, in bond; of all other
Grain, free or in bond, they are very small.
Hay harvest in the south of England is reported to have com-
menced under very fabourable circumstances.
At this day's market there appeared a little more confidence in
the trade, and sales were effected to a limited extent of Wheat and
Flour at the prices of this day week ; the demand for all other ar-
ticles was very moderate at barely the prices quoted.
