LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, APRIL 3.
With the exception of 7660 quarters of Oats and 7100 loads of
Oatmeal from Ireland, the arrivals of British Grain, &c, to this
port during the past week have been moderate. The imports from
abroad, and entered under bond, comprise 1054 quarters of Wheat.
600 quarters of Beans 9680 barrels of Flour; the latter from the
United States. Throughout the week the trade, generally, has
ruled dull ; the decline of 3d per bushel that occurred in Wheat on
Tuesday last has not, however, been followed by any further re-
duction in the value of the finer qualities of that grain; but the
lower descriptions of Free Foreign, and the general runs of Irish,
were yesterday again Id per 781bs cheaper. Flour has also met a
limited demand, and holders have latterly shown more desire to
press sales; prices have rather given way. Canadian has been
sold at 35s to 35s 6d ; United States free at 35s 6d to 36s per barrel.
Irish extremely difficult to quit, though offered at Is to 2s per
sack lower. Oats, with the little increase of supply, are Id per
bushel cheaper ; 3s 4d per 451 h again the top price for mealing.
Oatmeal, too, must be quoted 6d per load lower, and both articles
have moved slowly. In Barley, Beans or Peas there has been little
passing ; each may be be bought on rather easier terms, A cargo
of Odessa Wheat has changed hands in bond at Ss 3d per 701bs,
and about 1300 barrels of United States Flonr have been sold at 23s
, per barrel,
