LIVERPOOL HAY AND POTATOE MARKET,

April 6, 1843.
There has been a moderate arrival of Potatoes since the 30th ult.,
hut which have come to hand very irregularly, and caused great
fluctuations in prices during the past several days. Our last quo-
tations were fully supported during the former part of last week,
but are generally giving way, owing to the wind being now favour.
able for inward bound craft, and a large arrival being expected,
sellers having shown a great anxiety to realize, and the operations
of both our town retail trade, and country dealers, being confined
to their immediate vend. The market this day closes very heavy
at 13d to 14d per gOlbs. for the best run of Cups, with every pros-
pect of a still further decline.

- There is no alteration to notice in the value of Sweed Turnips—
good sound descriptions command 18s to 20s per ton.
Our local markets continue to be well supplied with all descrip-
tions of farm produce, which sell at the under noted quotations.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, APRIL 4.
Although the wind has been mostly favourable for arrivals
since Friday, the samples of all sorts of Grain and Flour up
for to-day are extremely small, and those of Oatmeal com-
paratively but moderate.

The principal consuming markets of the country in the
course of last week appearing to have recovered a little bet.
ter tone as regards Wheat, and the improved features re-
ported in London yesterday imparting a somewhat steadier
feeling among the trade here, most descriptions of English,
Irish, and Foreign Wheat were held, at this day's market.
Id. to 2d. per 701bs. over the rates of Tuesday last, which,
although not freely paid, nor generally established, sales to a
moderately fair extent were effected at the amendment.
Flour of all denominations meta rather improved demand,
and fully supported former prices.
Barley, upon a short supply, remained steady in value;
whilst Malt, Beans, and Pease, continuing to meet a very
limited inquiry, hardly maintained our last quotations.
Oats, of which a few parcels have been taken by specula-
tive buyers and consumers, were id. to Id. per 451bs. dearer;
and Oatmeal, though not in lively request, realised the ex-
treme terms of this day se'nnight.
