LIVERPOOL COMMERCIAL MARKET. Nov. 3.
There has been an increased demand for Sugar, both from
grocers and refiners, and the sales amount to 1000 hhds. B.P.
and 3000 bags Bengal, but without any improvement in prices.
Only 25 'Ads. 100 brls. Porto Rico, and 60 barrels Venezuela
have been sold, at previous rates.—The business in Molasses is
confined to a parcel of 200 puns. Antigua, from the quay, at
18s. per cwt., the quality not being fine.—The Coffee market is
flat, and last week's rates are barely supported; the sales con-
sist of 100 tees. Jamaica, 10 bales Mocha, at 528., and 500 bags
Lagnayra at 28s. 6d. to 325. per cwt.—A small lot of Jamaica
Ginger sold at the quotations, and 200 bags Black Pepper at
nth to 3d. per lb.-3000 bags Bengal Rice sold at Bs. 6d. for very
low broken, to 12s. 6d for fine.—The inquiry for Rum is still
very limited, and to effect sales lower prices would have been
accepted ; the business this week amounts to only 60 puns. at
our reduced quotations.—The Tea market is very inanimate ;
common to good common Congous have been sold at easier
rates.—East India Drysaltery Articles continue dull, and the
chief sales made have been 60 chests of Gum Arabic at 10s. to
425., 30 chests Shell Lac at 325. to 386., a few bales of Bengal
Safflower at 1405., 50 bales of Gambier at 95.. and 100 bags Sago
Flour at 19s. per cwt. About 1400 bags of Saltpetre have been
disposed of at 235. to 265., and of Nitrate of Soda, 800 bags at
10s. 9d. to Ils. per cwt.—About 200 tons of the common sorts
of Guano sold at steady rates.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, NOVEMBER 3.
The market opened with an increased demand from spinners,
and a very fair inquiry from speculators, which caused prices
to advance id. to kd. per lb. ; this, however, checked the opera-
tions of the trade, and yesterday prices somewhat receded. To-
day there has been more business done, and the market has
closed firm at id. per lb. advance on the low and middling fair
qualities of American. There was a thi❑ attendance at the
public F des to-day, and of 993 bags Sea Islanc. and 43 Stained
ditto offered, only 320 sold, at rather lower prices. speculators
have taken 5500 American, and Exporters 1400 American, 350
Surat, and 200 Madras; and there have been forwarded into
the country unsold during the past month, 2510 American and
230 Surat.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE. OCT. 31.
We beg to direct attention to an error of the press in Friday's
report, which will be fuund in page 7, relative to the exports
from America : the date should read for five weeks ending 2ND
OCTOBER, instead of for the week ending 20TH OCTOBER.
The supplies of Grain, Flour, and Oatmeal received into this
port since Tnesday last greatly exceed in the aggregate those of
any previous week during the present year, as will be seen on
reference to the particulars subjoined.
In the face of these large arrivals, Wheat met a fair de-
mand this morning, and in most instances on rather higher
terms.
Flour was slow sale, Irish at barely the rates of this day week,
and American at a decline of 6d. per barrel.
Barley the turn, and Malt Is. per qr. lower.
Oats Id. per 451 b. cheaper; and Oatmeal 6d. per load.
Indian Corn receded 6d. per quarter ; in Meal no change.

CORN EXCHANGE. NOVEMBER 3.
Duties on all Grain remain the same as last week. except
that on Oats, which has advanced to 2s. 6d. per quarter.
New York advices to the 17th ult. bring prices of Wheat,
Flour, and Indian Corn rather lower. with, however, a very
slight margin in the two former, while the latter costs above
our present currency ; exports of the preceding fortnight were
of less important amount than previously, and there was much
less choice of the finest qualities of Wheat. Freights Bd. to Bad.
per bushel for Grain, for Flour 2s. 6d. per barrel.
Our fresh supply of British and Irish produce is upon the
whole very moderate, that from abroad, including chiefly In-
dian Corn and Flour, to a fair amount.
This market has been steadily supported between Tuesday
and to-day. and has been if anything, rather dearer for Wheat,
with a fair consumptive demand for Flour, in addition to some
large parcels taken yesterday for investment ; that article also,
appeared improved in value.
Our market this morning, although tolerably well attended
by home and country buyers, evinced no lively symptoms in
any branch of the trade: of American mixed Wheat, however,
about 2000 quarters changed hands for investment, on terms
which did not transpire, but reported to be rather under Bs. 6d.
per 701 b. •, whilst in the various qualities of English, Irish, or
Foreign, the transactions were upon a moderate scale only, and
without any quotable change in value.—ln home-made or Irish
Flour very little business was apparent, and tender samples of
new were hardly saleable; good parcels of French, notwith-
standing, were in fair demand at 455. per 2801 b., including
sacks ; and States as well as Canadian, meeting an improved
inquiry, maintained our last currency.—Barley, of all descrip-
tions, and Malt, ruled steady at Tuesday's rates.—Beans, at-
tracting somewhat more attention, all kinds, including Egyp-
tians, realised an advance of 6d. per quarter.—ln Pease no
variation.—Oats, being disposed of less freely, declined Id. per
451 b., and Oatmeal was easier to purchase.—Although Indian
Corn was not quite so readily saleable as earlier in the week, a
few thousand quarters were taken at an abatement of 6d. per
quarter; Corn Meal obtaining 178. to 17s. 6d. per barrel.
Stocks in bond at Liverpool, 31st October, 1848:—Wheat,
24,833 qrs.: Barley, 455 qrs. ; Beans, 4395 qrs. ' • Pease, 15 qrs. ;
Indian Corn, 9443 qrs.; Indian Corn Meal, G 9 brls. ; Oatmeal,
