LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, OcT, 16.

Since Tuesday last the imports of Grain, Flour. and Oatmeal,
from Ireland and Coastwise, have been to a very fair extent, and of
Wheat and Flour from Foreign ports they have been also further
considerably increased, and nearly two-thirds of the Wheat and
Flour Coastwise are Foreign, duty paid, the vessels having put into
the nearest British ports they could reach, and landed their cargoes
to save duty ; the weather since Wednesday last has been stormy, •
with frequent heavy showers of hail and rain, so that we fear very
little Grain has been secured since that day, and that a large pro-
portion of the crops to the northward, and even in this county, re-
mains still in the fields, and now receiving much injury ; in some
degree owing to which, and the quality of the recent imports of
new Wheat from Ireland not improving, there has been a better
demand during the past week here and in all our country markets,
also in those of Yorkshire, and at Manchester on Saturday sales to
a fair extent were made of Grain from this port, particularly of
Foreign Wheat ; last quoted prices of which, and of every article in
the trade have been fully supported, and in some instances a little
exceeded.
The duty on Wheat from Foreign ports has increased since Fridao
last two steps. and is now 20s 8(1 per quarter, and 12s 3d per barrel
on Flour; on Barley, Indian Corn, Buck Wheat, and Rye, it has
also increased ls'Gd per qr. ; and the high duty is now payable on
British Colonial Wheat and Flour of 5s per quarter, and 35 per bar-
rel ; the duty of 16s tid per quarter has been submitted to on about
8,000 qrs. of last week's imports of Wheat, and lOs per barrel on
the chief part of the Flour, but the duty is now completely pro-
hibitory; the Wheat in bond is not yet offering for sale, at its
nominal value, but a few sales of Flour in bond have been made at
30s to 31s per barrel for export ; for all other Grain in bond there
has been very little demand. and the prices are almost nominal.
At this day's market we have had a more active demand for
Wheat, and sales to a considerable extent have been made to the
millers and dealers, and some purchases were made by speculators.
chiefly of good fresh Foreign, at an advance since last Tuesday of
3d to 40 per 70Ib on superior qualities, and of 20 to 3d per 7011, on
.middling and ordinary kinds. Fine new and old British and Irish
Wheat fully supported last quotations; but for all other articles in
the trade the demand was very limited at about last quotations.

LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, OCT. 15.
We have had a large supply of Beasts at market to-day, by tar
the greatest ever shown in this market, but the quality only mid-
dling. There was a tolerable quick sale for good quality, and
although the supply has been so large, we cannot note any altera-
tion in the price of Beef of first quality, but second and inferior
quality was sold at a shade less than last week. The supply of
bheep has not been so large as for several weeks preceding, hut
the sale of Mutton has been rather heavy, though prices are much
the same as last week. Good Beef may be quoted at 51d from that
down to 3d; second and ordinary quality, lid down to 4d per lb.
Good Wether-Mutton was sold at from did to did middling quality
and Ewes 6d, inferior 51d per lb. Of both Beef and Sheep a great
number of middling and ordinary quality were left unsold at the
close of the market. Number of Cattle :—Beef 2,144, Sheep 6,119.
