,CORN.

LIVERPOOL, Apatrx. .28.—The attendance at our
Corn Exchange this morning was by no means numerous,
and the transactions in all descriptions of wheat have
proved upon a very limited scale ; finest qualities of white
and red, however, continuing scarce, nearly supported
previous quotations, whilst all other sorts were purchase-
able at 2d per bushel reduction from the rates of Tuesday
last. Flour may be noted 6d. to Is per barrel cheaper for
Baltimore, Philadelphia, and Western Canal ; but extra
qualities of Ohio, Virginia, and CansAian, upon which
to-day's moderate demand chiefly runs, can scarcely be
tailed lower.—Beans held firmly, but little doing. Bar-
ley id to 2d per bushel cheaper, and the sales limited.
Fine oats, though scarce, barely maintain late prices;
middling descriptions are id to Id per 4511 m. cheaper.
Oatmeal in good request, readily commanding extreme
rates for good qualities of both new and 01(1—Some
quantity of Indian corn sold at is per qr. decline, but the
general Irish demand is confined to few orders today.

MANCHESTER, Aran 27.—At our market this
morning the attendance was slender, and the amount of
business limited. Choice qualities of wheat, being ex_
tremely scarce, were fully as dear, but secondary sorts
must be noted the turn cheaper. In the few transactions
which occurred in flour no material change in value was
observable. Oats were in fair demand, at fully previous
rates ; and oatmeal, although only in moderate request,
was likewise firm at the currency of this day se'nnight.
• PRESTON, APRIL 29.—There was a better supply of
English wheat, beans, and oatmeal, at our market this
morning, than for several weeks past, and the demand for
each article was languid at last Saturday's currency.
From granary very little was doing, Brtgi ls, per pack
higher,
