LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, Nov. 29,
Since our last the operations have been most extensive. The
sales yesterday were 10,000 bags, and to-day they amount to 12,000.
This large business has been principally done by speculators, their
purchases in the two days being estimated at 15,000 bags. The
market has closed firmly at an advance of id per lb on Friday's
prices.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, Nov. 27.
Our recent supplies, owing to a series of easterly winds, have
been extremely Itght, and the market has become almost bare of
new Grain. The improvement noted in the demand last Tuesday
has been fully sustained throughout the week, and has applied to
most articles of the trade. Wheat has found a very free vend;
besirlesit- good sale to ourlocal.deaters; orders-te-setne-extent have
been executed for the Yorkshire millers, and many purchases have
occurred for shipment eoastwise. Foreign red has been the most '
eagerly souht for, and the best has reached Ils 6d; Danzig lls 3d
to 12s; Eng'lish white as high as 12s 6d per 701bs, Irish new has
gone off readily, Limerick of fair quality realising 10s 6d per 701 b.
Prices of Flour generally have been slow to follow the advance in
those of Wheat. but the demand for all descriptions of sweet has
been good, and the best English at the close of the week was
worth 68s; Irish. 66s per 2801bs. Most of the new Oats left over
from last week hove found buyers at improving prices; 3s 101
could now be obtained for the best meshing qualities, and 3s 8d to
3s 9d per 451bs. for ordinary and fair runs. Oatmeal has further
advanced in value, 36s per 2401bs has been paid for Irish manufac-.
ture. The market continues almost bare of Barley ; it is much
wanted, and would readily command our highest quotations ; a
little lot of choice Chevalier, on Friday. brought 44s per imperial
quarter. Beans have not yet brought any material advance, but
they are scarce and likely to be dearer. Peas are in request, and
52s per imperial quarter obtainable for choice breakers. The con-
fident opinion entertained of a further advance in prices, induces
a demand for bonded Wheat, and every parcel is picked up as soon
as offered; Ils per 701hs has been paid fur the best Baltic red.
From five to six thousand quarters may have changed hands during
the week. Flour under lock has sold at 42s per barrel.
We advance our quotations this day week, 6d per bushel for
Wheat, Id for Oats, 3a per sack for Flour, and 2s 6d per load for
Oatmeal, with a corresponding improvement in the value of most
other article's of the trade. At this advance there was rather less
activity in the demand for Wheat, still a fair amount of business
was transacted. Several parcels of bonded were sold at lOs 9d to
lls per 701 h. The transactions in Oats and Oatmeal were only
limited,—both articles in small supply.
