LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE,-

(From Messrs. R. MAKIN Sr SONS' Circular.)

Notwithstanding the weather here continues favour
for all the labours of husbandry, it has been of late f
at nights, and upon the whole, as applicable to the cro;
of a retrograding character ; thus, although we
very little appearance of actual business in any
of the Corn trade between Tuesday last and to-clay
of Wheat have shown rather more firmness, with
ness to press sales than, heretofore, and prices (
time remained steady

departr

The duty on foreign Wheakis reduced to 225. 8
to 12s. 3d. per quarter, and on Flour to 13s. 7!A.
remaining upon all other produce the same as last week
Since the early part of the week the arrivals intc
port, coastwise and from Ireland, have been altogether

usually light ; and from abroad, the imports fresh in for
day are limited to 650 quarters of Oats, and 1,300 qu.ll
of Beans from Europe, with 1,960 barrels of Flour II
New York and New Brunswick : but having a fair (ran
of foreign Wheat offering from granary, and duties likel
be paid upon some portion of the stock in bond, the Ina:
is well supplied with this grain at present.
At our Corn Exchange this morning, transactions in g
qualities of English and foreign Wheats were effected t
moderate extent for consumption, with little or no var:at
from the rates last noted ; and Irish, of which a few tai
were taken for shipment to the west of Ireland, rather
ceeded late prices, with an indication of somewhat n
stability relative to fine, but not to the lower description
foreign, the latter being again ld. per 701bs. cheaper.
English and Irish Flour met little attention, and for;
duty paid, was only in moderate request on the terms
noted. Of bonded States Flour about 2,300 bris have cha
hands since our report of Tuesday at 235.
Barley, Malt, Beans and Pease, continued in the same
state as before, and hardly realised our last currency.
Oats, upon a limited inquiry, were unaltered in v:
whilst Oatmeal was rather more saleable, and holders I
generally firm, former prices were maintained
