LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, JULY 17.

The announcement of the settlement of the Danish question,
the decline in London yesterday, and the coo tinuance of fine
weather, have imparted considerable dulness to most branches
of the Corn trade at our market to-day ; and millers being in-
active, a decline in Wheat of ld. to 2d. per 70lbs. has resulted.
Flour was also taken off sparingly ; and late prices were
barely sustained in the few transactions which occurred.

- --
Barley and Malt being little noticed, merely sustained late
prices.
Beans were rather more inquired for, and the turn dearer.
Pease unvaried.

Oats and Oatmeal met a languid sale at late prices.
in the absence of Irish orders, Indian Corn was very dull,
and the prices for white were Is., and yellow Is. 6d., lower than
on this day se'nnight. Corn Meal IGs. to 16s. 6d. per brl.

CORN EXCHANGE, JULY 20,

Since our last report we have had copious and refreshing
rains daily, nhich coming very seasonably after the late dry
weather, give a greatly improved appearance to all the crops
around ns. Our accounts on this subject are equally favoura-
ble from Ireland. where even Potatoes, so far displaying the
promise of an abundant yield, are now being delivered out
plentifully by the growers at low prices, thereby communicating
a dull tone to general business, and to the value of most arti-
cles of food a downward tendency : many of the English mar-
kets this week being also depressed, the trade here, from
Tuesday to the close of yesterday, was languid in all its bear-
ings, with a declining aspect. The arrivals into this port dur-
ing the last three days contain, principally a moderate quantity
of Foreign Wheat, with a good supply of Indian Corn and Flour
from the United States, but little produce of any description
from other sources. The causes stated in the foregoing remarks
had a considerable effect in repressing any active proceedings
upon our market to-day, at which no extensive sales of any
article were feasible: importers of Wheat, however, refusing to
submit to any material reduction, the transactions in this
Grain were in small parcels merely to needy buyers, in some
cases at a decline of ld. per 701 b., and in others on the terms
of this day week. Choice brands of American Flour, in the
absence of sufficient water power for the mills, continued to
meet a moderate demand, and such nearly maintained the an-
nexed quotations; whilst recent importations, which are ge-
nerally heated and extremely inferior in quality, were nearly
unsaleable, and little more than nominal in value ; that of
home made and Irish Flour remaining steady. Barly, Malt,
Beans, and Pease appeared to rule in all respects the same as
last noted. Oats, being in limited supply, and in rather better
request, supported Tuesday's rates ; and Oatmeal, althougn
still in slow demand, was held at late prices. Indian Corn
upon a more limited inquiry than usual, good qualities receded
Is , inferior descriptions Is, 6d. per quarter, and Corn Meal
6d. per barrel.
