CORN MARKETS

LIVERPOOL, OCT. 24.—Advices have reached us by the
United States steamer Baltic, from New York, to the 11th inst.
Prices of Flour and Wheat come a little lower. Good Western
Canal Flour is quoted at 3 dots. 75c. to 3 dols. Sac., and Ca-
nada, being scarce, commands 4 dots. per brl. in bond for the
colonies. White Genessee Wheat is worth 90c. to 95c., the
latter price commanding prime quality, and white Michigan
80c. to 87ic. per bushel. Unmoved by the continued absence
of any material arrivals into the ports of this country fron►

a oroaa, comnmect with the exports to the continent, and com-
plete reversal of the trade in the north of Europe, the British
and Irish markets appear to be still well supplied with native
Grain, and in several districts borne-grown Wheat is again
reported Is. per qr. lower, accounted for probably in some
measure by the present unsatisfactory state existing in other
branches of commerce. Under these circumstances we have
had very little business passing in any kind of Grain here,
during the interval since Tuesday, American Flour alone exci-
ting a moderate share of attention, although rather lower terms
were accepted. We continue to be very scantily supplied both
coastwise and from Ireland ; and that beyond 4043 qrs. of
Wheat, and 10,120 brls of Flour from the United States, with
811 sacks of the latter, and 396 qrs. of Indian Ce- chiefly

from France, we have 'no fresh arrivals from aIWM ; while
the shipments hence, coastwise and to Ireland, are fair in
amount. Our Corn-Exchange to day was tolerably well attended
by home and country millers, and with a few Irish buyers,
good runs of foreign Wheat were in moderately fair demand;
in order to effect sales, however, sellers were obliged to submit
to a decline of id. per 701bs. from Tuesday's rates, and Eng-
lish, though not quotably cheaper, was rather easier to pur-
chase. Extra choice brands of States and Canadian Flour
continuing to be held with unabated firmness, and very few
parcels offering, such fully maintained our last quotations,
while for all other qualities importers conceded 3d. to Gd. per
barrel, in consequence of which the transactions in these
descriptions were active and extensive; French Flour unvaried.
Barley, Malt, Beans, and Peas in moderate demand, and steady
in value. Oats supported late prices, and Oatmeal again im-
proved 3d. per load. Indian Corn on the spot was in slow
request, but at previous rates a few more floating cargoes
recently changed hands.—The following are Tuesday's quota-

MANCHESTER, OCT. 25.—The Corn Trade during the week
has been quiet, without any very {articular chabge in prices,
though, if anything, they may be called rather easier for
secondary qualities of Wheat and Flour. As regards the latter,
the demand runs very much upon the higher descriptions,
whilst fair superfine, households, and the lower sorts are com-
paratively neglected. Oats and Oatmeal have met steady sale
on arrival, at rather improving prices. The Liverpool import
is moderate, with the exception of American Flour. Our sup-
ply of this article from the interior and the eastward is still
light. Our market to-day is described by the foregoing obser-
vations:—Choice qualities of Wheat and Flour support the
prices of this day week, but secondary samples are td. to 2d.
per bushel and fully 6d. per sack lower, Oats quite as dear,
and we raise our quotations for Oatmeal 6d. per load. A good
retail inquiry for new Beans and boiling Peas at full prices.

PREStOg, OCTOBER 25.—We have Very few arrivals to note
firing the week. Since last Saturday little vaeation has oc-

curred in the grain market, but at Blickburn, on Wednesday,
Flour was offered at a reduction of 6d. per pack, whilst for Oat-
meal we experienced a moderate demand to consumers at an
improvement of 6d. per load. There was a fair supply of Eng-
lish Wheat at our market this morning, which met a steady
sale at the currency of this day se'nnight. We cannot note any

change in the value of, or deinand for, Irish; and Foreign is
likewise unaltered. Flour in this market has nearly maintained
our last quotations. Beans scarce. Oats in fair request, with-
out any alteration in prices. Farmers' Oatmeal in brisk de-
mand, and Irish pretty well cleared off at the advance above
alluded to.

WAKEFIELD, OCT. 24.—This week we have a good supply
of Wheat, for which there is a steady sale at the rates of last
• Friday Barley is in very short supply, and_is readily taken at
_.

i, ituvance. vats ana aneuing are in good demand, and ra-
ther dearer. Beans are scarce, and ls. per qr. dearer.
NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, OcToBER 25.—There was a
large supply of Wheat to-day from the farmers, thegreater part
in very indifferent condition. Good and dry qualities sold

• uay oe gu. IJUI. ieaurtr
and ordinary descripticns could only be cleared off by accepting
slightly-reduced rates. Since Tuesday we have scarcely any-
thing fresh up from the coast, and the parcels left over from
that day were taken freely by the millers at the full currency of
last week,—say, for Norfolk and Suffolk red, 38s. 6d. and 395.;
Lincolnshire, 375. to 388. perquarter, weighed 63Ibs. per bushel.
From abroad the arrivals have quite fallen off, and holders of
Wheat in granary are demanding advanced rates, which rather
checked sales, but in the business transacted full prices were
realized. Malting Barley is now selling better, and rather more
money was obtained to-day for fine qualities. Grinding in great
request, and again Is. per quarter dearer. New Oats do not
come forward freely from the farmers, and needy buyers had
to give 6d. to ls. per quarter advance: old maintained their
value. Foreign were more enquired after, but no improvement
in price could be obtained. Pease and Beans very scarce, and
fully Is per quarter higher. Flour as last quoted.
WISBECH, OCT. 25. —There is but a poor show of Wheat
here to-day ; the condition is only middling, and there is no
alteration in the price. Oats rather more looked after, and so
are Beans, and somewhat dearer.

DUBLIN, OCT. 24.—There was a good supply at our market
to-day. Wheat and Oats fully supported the currencies of
Tuesday, and for the best qualities a small advance was
realised. Malting Barley also maintained its price, but dis-
tillers qualities were very dull, at barely our last quotations.
Occasional sales occur of old Gruin and Indian Corn, without
any alteration in value.

CORK, OCT. 25.—The weather being favourable for agricul-
tural operations causes our supplies of native grain to fall off.
Wheat and Oats have each advanced 6d. per brl. on the week.
Our foreign imports comprise only 3,300 qrs. wheat, and 2,840
qrs. Indian Corn. Prepared Native Wheat held firmly, and
few sellers at our quotations. Black and 'White Oats held at
6d. per brl. advance, which has not been met by buyers.
Foreign Wheat in moderate demand at about last week's
prices, Gbirka and Marianople being most saleable for mixing.
Indian Corn dull ; our quotations barely sustained.

per cwt., duty paid.—The sales of Molasses are limited to 130
puns. Antigua, from the quay, at 135.-6 d. per cwt.—Coffee:

Havana at Is. 4d. per gallon proof.—Tea : During the earlier
part of the week there was a good inquiry for good to fine Pekoe
kinds of Congou, and a fair business done at previous quota-
tions, but for the common descriptions the market is inactive,
and prices barely supported. In scented and Green Teas little
or nothing doin "g. About 600 packages- of the new crop of
Congou, ex "Stornoway, just arrived in London, have been sold at Is. Bd. to Is. 9d. per lb., at which prices they appear to
move off slowly.—Saltpetre remains firm.—Pot Ashes are
lower, about 100 barrels having been sold at 265. 6d. to 275. per
cwt. Pearl are in limited demand at 29i. 6d per cwt.—There

South American at 355. 6d. to 375. 6d. per cwt.—About 70 to 80
tons American Lard have been sold at a decline of Is. to as.
per cwt.—Holders of Jute are anxious to sell, but the trade are
disinclined to operate. and the sales of 1,030 bales during the
week have made at lower prices; common at middling
at £l2, and very good at ..fl4 15s. per ton.
LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, OCT. 24.

- - -- ---
There has been rather more injury for Beef, but sales arc
difficult to effect, as holders are most pressing, and buyers in
consequence vary cautious; the best brands about support for-
mer quotations, ordinary and middling descriptions are lover
3s. to ss. per tierce. A parcel of about 200 barrels American
Pork has been taken for export; the dealers have also taken
about 250 barrels. There is a fair inquiry for Irish Bacon, in
the absence of .• Shoulders and
hams at

Low figures begin to move. Holders of Lard having
given way is. to 2s. per cwt., buyers have come forward pretty
freely, and toe sales for the week reach 90 tons. Cheese being
now more plentiful, a good extent of business has taken place.
at steady rates.
