DUBLIN CORN EXCHANGE, DEC. 27.
At this day's market Wheat and Barley were sold on nearly
the same terms as on Tuesday; but Oats, in some cases, have
advanced about 3J. per barrel.

BIRMINGHAM CORN MARKET, DEC. 24.
During the present week we have had but little passing in the
grain trade, and prices of all descriptions may be considered
nominally unaltered.

LEEDS CORN MARKET. DEC. 24.
The arrivals are still kept back by contrary winds. The trade
for all descriptions of Grain is dull at about the rates of this day
week.

LIVERPOOL COLONIAL MARKET, DEC. 27.
Notwithstanding the holydays, a steady business has been
done in Sugar, the grocers and refiners having taken 500 hhds.
of B. P., 30, 0 bags of Bengal, and 3 ,0 bags of Mauritius, at for-
mer prices. Very little has occurred in Foreign.—The only sales
reported in Molasses is So puns. Barbadoes at 235. per cwt.—
Coffee. The sales of Plantation are confined to a few small lots
at the quotations. Of Foreign, goo bags Maracaibo were taken
by the trade at previous rates, also 10) bags of Cotta Rica, the
latter with all faults.-170 bags of Brazil Cocoa have been sold
at 325. Gd. per cwt„ 50 bags of Pimento at 4}(1., and lon bags of
Black Pepper at 34d. to Sid. per lb.—Rice. There are no sales
reported.—ln Rum the business is unimportant.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, DEC. 24.
Though the wind remains contrary, a moderate quantity of
Wheat. Oatmeal and Flour has worked up, with which excep-
tions the general imports have been very little augmented since
the close of last week.
We had but a limited attendance of local buyers at this day's
market, and fewer still from the country on account of the par-
tial closure of the canals by frost; a moderate sale was expe-
rienced for old Foreign Wheats, but from the continued absence
of fresh parcels of new Irish, scarcely anything was done in
that des ription, and we note prices generally without change
from this day week. Flour, particularly prime working
parcels, was held steadily for previous rates, with, how-
ever, a less free sale to-day.
• Malt, Beans and Pease the turn cheaper.
From the ti ifling quantity of Oats at hand, the trade Is quite in
retail, t the full currency of this day se'i,night; but Oatmeal I
found a better sale to the country, at an improvement of id. per I
1 ad on both old and new.

CORN EXCHANGE, DECEMBER 27.
The impost on Foreign Barley is advanced this week to 4s.
per quarter, which is the only alteration in the duties since our
last report.

Our fresh arrivals continue, upon the wh le, unimportant,
nor can we expect any general supply cf moment until a change
of wind from the westward ; a few parcels of Wheat, with about
Mr sacks Flour from Ireland, forms the chief import of the past
three days.

As usual In Christmas week, the trade has been of a very no-
minal character in the intermediate period between market
days, and we have consequently few transactions, and those
only in retail, to remark upon in any article.
Our Corn Exchange this morning was again thinly attended
by actual buyers, and scarcely any business was apparent in
either English or Foreign Wheats, for which we repeat our last
quotations; new Irish also met a very dragging sale, and in
anticipation of increasing su: ply with difficulty sustained their
late value.—Of Flour, choice marks only are saleable to a mo-
derate extent, but anything second-rate is at present exceed-
ingly difficult of disposal.

Beans and Peas support prices.—Barley and Malt nominally
unaltered from the rates last stated.

Though so few Oats have lately arrived that the market is al.
most bare of the article, prices have receded id. to Id. per 451 b.
upon the limited demand experienced today ; and Oatmeal, for
which there was a trifling country iniuiry, was hardly so well
sold as before.

Taken altogether, we have had a very flatuniuteresting trade,
