LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, FEB. 10.

The arrivals into this port, during the last seven days, corn.
pyise a fair supp4y of Whest, Oats, Flour, and Oatmeal, with a
few parcels of Barley, coastwise and from Ireland ; the imports
from abroad, within that period, consisting of Wheat, Beans,
Indian Corn, and Flour, as specified beneath.

Although at this day's market there was a better attendance
of town and country millers than of late, no lively appearance
was observable in any branch of the trade. The transactions in
Wheat, of which a few sales were made for the interior of the
coentry, were generally upon a very moderate scale ; in old at
the reduced rates of Fl iday, and in new at a decline of 2d. to 3d
I.er 7nlb, from the currency of this day seinnight.—lrish and
Canadian Flour, although rather more saleable, must be deemed
6d. per sack and 6d. per barrel cheaper.
Barley of all sorts, Pease, and Indian Corn continued to be
neglected, and were offered with little effect at an abatement of
Is. per q arter each —Malt and Beans remained in al. respects
unvaried.

The o.t trade, still exciting very little notice, all qualities re-
ceded further to-day, reducing price; full Id. below the quota.
tlons of Tuesday last; and Oatmeal was further depressed in
value.

Two or three cargoes of Wheat in bond changed hands at
7s. Bd., and American up to 7s. 6d. and 7s. Bd. per 701 b.
After an unusually mild season, with frequent rains. the wea-
ther has at length changed to frost, giving a salutary check to
the Wheat plant. which hitherto, alhough healthy and promi-
sing, appeared rather too forward at so early a period of the
yeor.

CORN EXCHANGE. FEBRUARY 13.

The duty on Foreign Pease has advanced to Is. 6d. per qr
which is the only change from the rates of last week.
Excepting a fair quantity of Flour, our supplies received
coastwise and from Ireland since Monday are small; and be-
yond 200 qrs. of Beans there is nothing fresh in from abroad.
During the last two days the trade was remarkably quiet;
and at cur market this morning, n extensive business was
practicable in any of its leading departments. The holders of
good and fine Wheats, however, although willing sellers, ad-
hered to our last quotations, at which a limited quantity of
Irish and Canadian was disposed of to needy buyers, whilst in-
ferior descriptions were nominally rather cheaper. Flour, upon
a very languid sale, barely sustained late prices.
Barley, Beans, and Pease, continued to meet little notice,
scarcely maintaining their value. In Malt no variation.
Oats, although in very limite : supply, were offered on rather
lower terms with little effect: Oatmeal, on the contrary, claim
ed a moderate degree of attention, and supported the rates last
noted.

Bonded Wheat, being generally held too high to induce a spe-
culative demand, no sales are reported; and the only transac-
tion in Flour comprises a lot or two of New Orleans sour at
245. 6d. per barrel.—lndian Corn under lock, commanding more
attention for Irish account, several parcels having bean taken
at 31s. per quarter.
