PRODUCE.—The markets have been steady during
the week, without any important change in prices.
Sugar has been firm, but Tea and Rice are not
quite so easy of sale. To-DAY the business in
Sugar, including the sales of Saturday, comprise
220 hhds., Barbadoes at 325. 6d. to 375. 3d., 1500

better feeling springing up for Tea, and since
Saturday evening between two and three thousand
chests of common to good common Congou have
been sold at ls. 3d. per lb. The market is now
nearly clear under ls. 3d. per lb. There has been
rather more doing in Rice ; 5000 bags Arracan
were disposed of on Saturday, at 13s. 3d.
and 1,000 bags to-day, at 13s. 6d. per cwt. 500
bags Bombay Linseed have realised 555. per qr. _

WooL.—*e have again experienced an U-ctive
demand this week, and considerable sales have
been made at about previous current rates: the
same healthy features still continue to characterise
the market, and unless something turn up to
check confidence, we still expect to see more
doing at the turn of the year. Imports for this
week very light.

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET,

—Tars DAY

The imports during the week have been on a moderate
scale, consisting of 4,788 quarters Wheat from the
United States, 4,713 quarters from other places, and only
483 coastwise. Of Flour the imports have been 3,076
barrels from America, and 440 sacks from Ireland. Of
other articles the 'supplies have been but small, with the
exception of 6,310 quarters Oats, and 17,494 loads Oat-
meal from Ireland.
The market this day was very well attended by country
buyers, and there was a good demand for Wheat and
Flour, but the high prices demanded by holders tended to
check business, but little in consequence was done. Wheat
is held for an advance of 41 to 61 per 701bs, and Flour
about Is 61 per barrel over the rates of this day week.
Indian Corn was in fair demand at rather higher prices.
Oats and Oatmeal were rather dearer. In other articles
but little doing and prices steady.

BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS.—
The followingextracts from Testimonials are proofs of
the great efficacy of this Medicine. That from Garrett Foster
Gill, Esq., 157, few Bond-st., London, concludes by saying :
" Whenever I feel any symptoms of the disease approach-
ing, I have instant recourse to this medicine, which to me is
so valuable that, were it not that the days of magic have
ceased, I should certainly
attribute the relief I obtain to that
cause. Moreover, I rejoice to say that my health has not in
any degree suffered; but, on the
contrary, I believe the
tendency of Blair's Pills Is towards its improvement."
Twelve years ago," writes Mr. Blake, of Kingscliffe,
Northamptonshire, "I became afflicted with rheumatic gout,
and I procured the best advice possible, but without deriving
benefit; and the doctors recommended me to go to the
Stamford Infirmary, where 1 continued twelve weeks, and
left it without obtaining any benefit, and all my hope of relief
had vanished. This hopeless state of things continued until
a friend advised me to try Blair's Pills. I lost no time
in sending to Mr. Mortlock, of Stamford, for a box ; and by
the time I had taken that quantity I got rid of one crutch. I
then sent for another box, which enabled me to throw away the.
other; and thank God I have never sinco had such an attack."
Mr. William Courtney, of Barton Stacey, Hants, says—".l
had resort to your Pills, and within two hours I'was quite
easy. The use of these Pills ought really to be known all
over the world. I have a brother, a young man, that suffers
horribly with it, and his greatest relief and preventive has
been your Pills."
John J. Giles, Esq., of Frimley, near Bagshot, " says—
Having suffered much from acute Rheumatism, I was
induced to try your Blair's Pills, and beg to bear my humble
testimony to their efficacy, not only in my own case, but
in several of my friends, who have taken them on my
recommendation."
Mr. John Gardiner, Advertiser Office, Wisbeach, writes—
"A customer of mine, Mr. William Cooper, of Walsoken-
road, Wisbeach, informs me that he has been troubled with
severe attacks of Gout for many years. During the last
attack, a few weeks ago, he was recommended to try Blair's
Gout Pills. At that time lie states that he had not slept for
twenty-four hours, and the pain was like being racked with a
hand-saw. After taking four of the pills he felt complete
ease. He continued to take them, and has suffered no
further from the disorder."
