LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE. SEPT. 29.
We have to report since Tuesday last, rather better supplies
generally, coastwise and from Ireland, than of late: and from
abroad, a fair import of Wheat, a moderate quantity of Corn,
and about 32,000 barrels of States and Canadian Flour, as speci.
fled below. . .

After the close of Friday's market, several thousand barrels
of Flour changed hands, and since then to tie present date, fur.
ther considerable sales of that article have been made daily at
improving rates, with a good demtend for Wheat on higher
terms, and a firm trade for other kinds of Grain.

The active proceedings in most of the leading markets of the
kingdom last week, and the continued rise in London, have
given a further impulse to the trade at our Corn Exchange to-
day; and in Wheat, the general runs of old, chiefly duty paid
Foreign, the sales to both town and country millers were ex-
tensive, at 4d to 6d over the rates of this day se'nnight ; whilst
Irish and farmers.new Wheat were fully 6d dearer, and a parcel
of very superior Nerfolk realised gs 2d per lb; several cargoes
of Foreign in bond and afloat have also been taken, on terms
within the range of our quotations —lrish Flour, upon an im-
proved demand, acquired 2s and 3s per sack over last Tuesday's
rates ; States and Canadian readily commanding 24s 6d and
35s 6d free, and the former in bond 32s and 33s per barrel, at
which the operations were very extensive.
New Malting Barley, of which a few parcels have arrived,
brought 44s per qr, and grinding samples late prices.—Beaus
remained steady in value —Pease 2s per qr dearer.—lndian
Corn in limited request at the foregoing decline of Friday.
Oats, meeting a dull sale, must be noted Id to 2d per 451 b
cheaper ; and Oatmeal was in slow request at former prices.

CORN EXCHANGE, OCT. 2.
The Wheat averages are now coming high, and there is every
probability of the lowest duty being again realised within a few
weeks.—To-day, the duty on Wheat is reduced to 83, on Bar-
ley, Rye, Be ,ns, and Pease to 2s per qr respectively, and on
Flour at 45 9d per barrel.
We have had a few small arrivals only of Wheat, Oats, and
Flour from Ireland, and scarcely any Grain coastwise since
Monday last; the fresh supplies In m abroad also, are very in-
considerable, as will be seen on reference to our import note
below.
During the two preceding days, we experienced an active
trade in Foreign free Wheat on the full terms last noted, some
large parcels having been taken for holding over; and Western
brands of Flour in bond, being offered at 225, several thousand
barrels changed hands; the best qualities duty paid, com-
manding 35s per barrel; all other articles remaining unvaried.
At our market this morning, although the millers bought spa-
ringly, further sales of Wheat were repeated. rather extensively
for investment, and in p ,rtial cases the turn dearer ; whilst
English and Irish new were dull, and slightly depressed in
value.—lrish Flour, being scarce, would bring rather higher
prices,—States and Canadian free, upon a fair demand, main-
tained. 55s ; and the former under bond, made 31s 6d at 32s per
barrel.

Barley, Malt, Beans, and Pease, continued to rule in all re.
spects as stated in our report of Tuesday.—Oats, meeting very
little notice, were again rather cheaper; and Odtmea,, upon a
very limited inquiry, merely sustained our last quotations.
Indian Coin. attracting somewhat more attention, rather ex-
ceeded late prices.
