CORN EXCHANGE, NOVEMBER 3

The duties on all kinds of grain continue unchanged for the
ensuing week.

With the exception of a fair supply of Wheat and Flour, the
fresh arrivals from Ireland direct into this port are to a very
limited extent, and besides 6180 barrels Flour and 1400 barrels
Oatmeal from Canada, we have nothing in from abroad.
Influenced, in some measure, by the pause to improvement in
several of the leading markets of the country this week, the
trade here has remained in a rather inactive state, generally,
during the past ten days ; and at our Corn Exchange this morn-
ing the purchase of Wheat on the part of millers appeared al-
most wholly suspended : holders, nevertheless, seemed to evince
a tolerable degree of firmness, and in a few partial instances
only submitted to a decline of Id per 701b.—Flour, of all descrip-
tions, being equally dull of sale, 'was rather depressed in value.
Barley, upon a moderate demand,-generally supported late
vices.—Malt remained unvaried.—Egyptian Beans, being less
plentiful and -in request, were ls.•per qr. dearer, and all other
kinds of this•article, as well as Pease, fully maintained our last
quotations.

The Oat trade, in the absence of country buyers, was ex.
tremely languid to-day, but appeared to suffer no depreciation
in prices; Oatmeal, on the contrary, continued to meet a fair
demand on rather higher terms, the best Irish new commanding
21s 6d, and prime old 20s 6d per 2401 b.

SALFORD CATTLE MARKET, Nov. 1.
We had a very good show of stock to-day, both of fat and
lean beasts. The supply much exceeded the demand, and
prices for the best beef gave way id per lb. Good mutton was
the turn lower. A large number of inferior beasts unsold.

WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET, Nov. 3.
We have a good supply of Wheat, and fair of other articles,
to this day's market, at which the best qualities of Wheat are
saleable on nearly the same terms as last week. Secondary
quality and conditioned parcels are slow sale, and about one
shilling lower. Barley, Oats, Beans, and Shelling, are each un-
altered in value.

DUBLIN CATTLE MARKET, Nov. 2.
The supply was much less than last week. The demand
being dull, pariicularly for export, we have no improvement to
notice in prices since our last quotation. Average prices—
Beef, 34s to 44s per cwt.; Mutton, 4;lci to aid per lb; Veal, Sid
to 6d per ditto, sinking offal.

FRIDAY, November, S.
There was a small supply of grain to-day, but the same dull-
ness prevailed as on last market day, Wheat and Oats bareley
supporting previous currency, and Barley unaltered; former
quotations therefore are repeated.

BIRMINGHAM CORN MARKET, Nov. 1.
During the present week, ,owing to the dull account from
Mark Lane, our Millers have been indisposed to buy Wheat,
except at some abatement in prices which holders were un-
willing to grant, and but few sales are reported. Old foreign
held for former rates. Malting Barley in demand, at last week's
currency; for grinding, is per quarter advance was demanded,
which checked the sale. Oats were held with firmness, but no
rise could be established. Old and New beans and Peas sup-
port their value.

LIVERPOOL -HIDE & SKIN MARKET, Nov. 3.
A clearance was made at this market to-day, but the demand
was not quite so good, and prices were a shade lower. Hides
70 and upwards, 4.74 ; 60 to 70, at 34d ; under 60, aid. Sheep
Skins, Ist class Irish, 3s 6d ; 2nd class ditto and Cheviots, 2s gd
to 2s 3d ; 3rd class ditto, 2s to is 6d ; and Scotch 2s to is 6d.
No alteration in Veal Skins. Heavy jd, and light 5d to -lid
per lb.

SMITHFIELD CATTLE MARKET, Nov. 3.
The supply of Beasts was moderate, but large of Sheep. The
trade was very heavy throughout the day, and prices equally as
low as last type!, Many has rl uvore t,,,.., no,r yin cettel mt

best quality of Beef cannot be quoted higher than 3s 10d per
stone, and inferior from 2s 10d. Downs of the best description
made 4s 2d, which, considering the depressed state of the trade,
is not a bad price. Coarse Veal and Pork made only 3s, and the
best Calves on offer but 3s Bd. Young and small Pork 4s. (Per
stone of Sibs, sinking the offal.)

MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, Nov. 4.
We have had but an inactive trade during the week, and some
concession in price has been submitted to in the Value of Wheat
and Flour, whilst Oats, Oatmeal, and other articles have fully
maintained, and in some cases rather exceeded, the rates of
our last.

The list of imports exhibit a considerable arrival of Irish pro-
duce, with 6180 barrels of Flour, and 14A barrels of Meal, from
Canada.

At Liverpool yesterday the market was quiet, but at Wake
field a considerable business was done in Wheat at a small re
duction in price.

At our market to-day the sales made are merely for the sup-
ply of a moderate consumptive demand. Wheat is 2d per bushel
and Flour is per sack cheaper.
Oats and Oatmeal fully support former rates. Beans and
Malt both rather exceed last week's value.

LONDON CORN EXCHANGE, Nov. 3.
There has only been a moderate arrival of English Wheat up
to our market since Monday, yet the stands were tolerably well
filled with samples. Even the finest qualities of both red and
white were a mere drug, and could not be disposed of, except at
a decline of ls. per quarter. In Foreign Wheat so little was
doing that the rates were almost nominal. The few samples of
line Malting Barley on show sold freely; other kinds heavily at
late rates. Fine old Malt was firm, but without much business
doing in it. 'Oats were in short supply, and moving upward in
price. In Beans, Peas, and Flour we have no alteration to
report.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, Nov. 6, 1843

Since our last circular the demand for Cotton has been only
very moderate. On Thursday and Friday last, after the arrival
of the Great Western, there was some enquiry made by specu-
lators, who purchased about 10,u00 bales, giving an impetus to
the market ; this was only temporary•, and to-day it has sub-
sided to its previous quiet and subdued tone. 4,000 bales have
been sold to-day at steady market priees ; 500 to a speculator—
remainder to the trade:
