LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE,.AIARcH 2

Although we have a continuance of east winds with frost,
several Grain vessels have arrived here Coastwise, but from
Ireland we have nothing worth naming and from abroad the
imports of the week are on the whole very moderate.
There was a large demand for Wheat, for export and home
consumption, ut an advance of from 3d. to 4d. per bushel. ,Some
floating cargoes changed hands at improved rates.
Flour advanced 6d. per barrel, with a better demand.
Indian Corn continued to meet buyers at the rates of this
day week.
In other articles a slow sale at former prices.
In order to arrive at a correct estimate of the present stock
of Wheat and Flour, we have ascertained as accurately as pos.
sible the quantity of each remaining on hand, duty-paid, at
this port, on the 26th January last, at which period the Corn-
law suspension took effect; and taking the subsequent release

CORN EXCHANGE, 11

LARCH 5.

Prevented by a continuance of adVerse winds, the arrivals of
either British or Foreign produce into this port since Monday
last, are , on the whole, limited in amount; and though several
grain vessels May be near at hand, it appears too early in the
season to expect any immediate large supplies from distant
parts abroad.
The trade fin• Wheat during the interval from Tuesday last
has ruled very firm upon sales conned chiefly to local con-
sumers, awl on a moderate scale; while the transactions in
American Flour were to a fair extent at an improvement of 6d.
per barrel; all Spring Corn, however, was exceedingly dull of
sale at our last quotations, though the quantity of most des-
criptions here is light.
Upon a very slender appearance of country buyers at this
day's market, and . our home miller's inactive, few sales of
Wheat were effected, but all descriptions being held steadily on
the terms last noted, our last cnrrency remained unvaried.
oe American Flour some further parcels were disposed of to-
day, partly from Ireland, and though the demand in some de-
gree abated, the advance above named was repeated, good
brands of Western realising 425. to 415. ed. per barrel.
Barley, Malt, Beans, and Petoe, in fact any kind of Spring
Corn,i stxmed to meet very little notice this morning, and all
ex iibita a rather lower tendency; Oats especially were much
nejlected, and were decidedly somewhat depressed in value.
Oatmeal was in slow request at late prices.
Indian Corn likewise, was taken snore sparingly to-day than
at an earlier period of the week, but as the wants of and ex-
ports to Ireland are still considerable, our last quotations are
maintained.
The weather is still cold, but being dry, and the soil in this
circle of the country meliorated by the late frost, is in tine
9rder for Ow.
