CORN EXCHANGE, MARCH G.

The duties have advanced thiS week on Foreign Wheat to iss,
Barley to Ss, nye to 9s 6d, Pease to 7s 6d per quarter, Flour to
tos led per barrel, and a step higher also on several kinds of
Colonial produce.
Of Grain, Flour, and Oatmeal, coastwise and from Ireland,
the receipts into this port, since Monday last, are very insigni-
ficant; from the South of Europe and the United States, how-
ever, we have to note a moderate import of Wheat with 445 qrs.
Beans; and from the latter source exclusively, 6739 qrs. Indian
Corn. and 19,076 barrels of Flour.
The steady tone of the trade reported on Tuesday has since
continued, but without any decided improvement in the de-
mand, the business transacted being wholly for consumption.
At our market this morning, good Irish new Wheat, being
in moderate demand and the supply limited, realised Id to ‘2d
per 7, lb. advance; the secondary and inferior qualities of new.
anti all sorts of old, remaining in slow request on th-2 terms last
noted. Irish Four, though not taken freely, fully maintained
late prices; and Canadian, meeting a better inquiry, was is
per barrel dearer.
Barley and Malt, the bulk of the late arrivals having been
previously disposed of, supported former prices. Beans, Pease,
and Indian Corn, moved off rather sparingly at our last quota-
tions.

Good Oa's, adapted for seed, were saleable, but all other kinds
extremely dull at Tuesday's rates. Oatmeal, on the contrary,
was in tolerable demand at an amendment of 6cl, the best Irish
commawing 925 per 2401 b.
In the bonded market, a parcel of Rostock Wheat at 7s 3d
per 701 b. a few lots of sweet States Flour at 275, and one of sour
at 2cs per barr I, appear to form the only transactions under
s.nce Tuesday.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, MARCH 6.
We have had a steady and regular demand throughout the
week, and the market, in consequence of political affairs with
the States and the comparative reduction of the receipts of the
crop at the ports, has shown an upward tendency, which is on►y
checked by the continued tightness of money matters : as it is,
prices of American descriptions have advanced Id per lb.. and
Pernambuco, owing to the expectation of a very short supply,
id pet lb. Other kinds are movir,g at previous rates. Sp,.eu..
lators have taken 5150 bales of American and t 350 Surat, and
exporters 240,, bales of American, 150 Surat. and lot) Madras.
The sales to-day are 6000 bales of all kinds, the market closing
with much firmness.
The import this week is 31,352 bales, and the sales reach
27,52,, bales, as follow
