CORN MARKETS.

LIVERPOOL, JUNK 3.—The demand for Wheat at oar Corn
Exchange this morning is to a good extent, and holders obtain
without difficultv an advance of Id per bushel on the better
qualities of all descriptions, whilst inferior sorts, though in
better request than of late. remain without amendment in
value. The improvement on Flour equals fully 6d to 94 per
barrel since Tuesday, and sacks are held for Is more money ; a
good speculative inquiry continues for American, but the con-
sumers have bought leas freely of this kind, turning their
attention more to French, &c., of good fresh quality. Oats
are held firmly, but Oatmeal is difficult of disposal, even at a
slight reduction. Grinding Barley rather dearer. Malt un.
varied. Egyptian Beans advanced 6d per quarter. Indian
Corn on the spot ruffles very dull to-day.
MANCHESTER, JUNE 4.—At our market this morning
Wheat was 2d per 70 lbs. dearer. Flour was held for an advance
of Is per sack, but the demand was not active. Beans were
scarce, and Is per quarter dearer. In Oats a good business
was done, at Id per 45 lbs. more money. Other articles were
unaltered.

PRESTON, JUNE 4.—We had a fair show of Wheat at our
Corn Exchange Ag-day, and fresh parcels being, wanted, the
sale ruled tolerey brisk at 3d per windle advance, but we
cannot note an improvement in any descriptions from granary.
Flour was held for 6d per pack more money. Beans in request,
and 6d to 9d per windle dearer. Oats moved off slowly at our
last currency. Oatmeal has met a limited inquiry, and our
quotations are little more than nominally sustained.
WAKEFIELD, JUNE 3.—The Wheat trade throughout the
week has exhibited great firmness, at improved prices. The
show of samples was small, and all descriptions of red Wheat
fully is per quarter dearer, with a fair sale, White Wheat
fetched last week's rates. Barley steady: Oats and Shelling
rather higher. Beans scarce, and Is advance obtained. Other
articles unaltered.

NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE. JUNE 4.—We had a small sup-
ply of Wheat this morning from the country, which sold readily
at an advance of 2s to 38 per qr. on the prices of this day week.
In South Country and Foreign a brisk business was also ef-
fected, at rates fully 2s per qr. over last Saturday. Oats in fair
demand, without alteration in value. Malt in good request at
our quotations. The arrivals of Flour during the week have
been small, and cleared off by our dealers at an advance of is
to 25 per sack.

WISBECH, JUNE 4.—We have a moderate supply of Wheat
here to-day, which is ready sale at an advance of 2s for all fresh
qualities, and stale samples are Is to 2s higher. Oats and
Beans very scarce, and each Is dearer. All farmers say they
want rain for the late sown Wheat and Spring Corn.
CORK, JUNE 4.—Our market this week shares in the
general excitement resulting from rumoured hostilities, and
Flour is saleable at late rates. Holders of Wheat decline to
sell prime qualities unless at an advance of 6d to is per barrel,
at which few are disposed to purchase. Indian Corn has more
inquiry, and buyers exhibit some confidence ; a slight improve-
ment on best qualities.

DUBLIN, JUNE 3.—Our Corn market to-day was dull for
every description of grain, except prime Oats, which met a
steady demand at fully the currency of Tuesday last, and were
in some cases a shade dearer. There was rather more business
done in Indian Corn, but at a decline of is per quarter.
