LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, Nov. 20.

A large proportion of the Wheat reported coastwise is from Lon-
don, and consists of released foreign : there is, however, an
increase in the receipts of Irish produce, and the week's imports
are altogether on a liberal scale. In the early part of the week
the trade ruled dull, with a tendency towards decline in prices;
subsequently there has been a better tone generally, and, on Satur-
day, considerable sales were made in Foreign 'Wheat, at prices
which could scarcely be obtained on Tuesday ; the interior millers
were the chief buyers. Middling parcels of old foreign have sold
at 9s 6d to lOs ; good red at lOs 6d to 103 9d ; fine at lls, and a little
Danzic has brought Ils 9d. English Wheat is worth Its 6d to 12s
per 701 b. Most of the Irish new Wheat has been of middling and
inferior quality ; such has found a very limited vend at 8s 6d to 9s,
whist 9s 6d to lOs 3d has been the current rates for the best sam-
ples. Flour has not sold so readily as Wheat, and, in some in-
stances, a little reduction from our previous quotations has been
submitted. Oats have met a tolerably tree vend without much
change in value ; a few inferior were, on Friday, sold at 3s 4(1 to
3s sd, whilst the best mealing were worth 3s 7d to 3s 8d per 45Ibs.
Oatmeal has gone off slowly at 31s to 32s 6d per 2401b5. We have
to note a good demand for English maltity, Bade at 41s to 42s ;
some choice Chevalier; has brought 44s per imperial quarter. The
distillers are buyers of Irish at 5s to as 3d per 601 b. A cargo of
Itye was, on Friday, sold, through this channel, at 5s Id per 601 b.
A fair business has been done in Malt at the full prices of last week.
There has still been very little passing in Beans. Pease are in re-
quest, and several parcels of foreign, in bond, have changed hands
with a view to the payment of duty. The best English would com-
mand 52s per imperial quarter. Bonded Wheat has continued to
meet inquiry. and lOs per 701bs. would be freely paid- for the hest
red; there is, however, little offering. A cargo of fair quality has
been sold at this price. There was a good demand for Wheat this
morning, as well from a distance as from our local millers, and the
finest samples of English and foreign brought an advance of 2d to
3d per • 701 b. on. the quotations of last Tuesday. Irish new also
met a better sale, and fully recovered the depression of Friday.
Oats were ld per 451hs. dearer, at which improvement the market
was pretty well cleared. Oatmeal was in request at 6d per load
above our previous currency; 35s paid for the best Irish. No
change in the value of Flour.

LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, Nov. 19. •
We have had a large supply of Beasts at market to-day, but the
quality was generally only middling, good Beef being very scarce,
owing to which there has been no reduction in the price of good
quality Beef, but that of ordinary quality has been sold at a shade
less than last week. Of Sheep we have also had rather a large
supply, a few or which were of very good *quality, but large prices
asked for them. The sales for both Beef and Mutton have been
rather dull, except for tho's:e that were tolerably good. Good Beef
sold at about 51d, middling and ordinary 5d down to 4d per lb, but
those at the latter price were of a very ordinary sort. Wether
Mutton may be quoted at Old, middling 6d, ordinary quality and
Ewes 5d to Ad per lb. There were a great many interior Beasts as
well as Sheep left unsold at the close of the market. Number of
Cattle : Beasts 1.777, Sheep 5,420, Pigs 10, Calves 3.
