MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, OCT. 5

With a fair attendance at our market this morning business
in Wheat and Flour is confined to the supply of present wants,
except in cases (and those are few) where sellers are prepared
to make considerable concession. We, however, call Wheat
2d. to 3d. per bushel and Flour fully Is. per sack cheaper than
this day week. All other article's slow of sale, but we don't
notice any particular variation in the value of any one.
