DUBLIN CORN EXCHANGE, OCT. 30.

Prices have continued to advance; good Wheats are now-
-39a to 40s pe barrel; Barley, 20s; old Oats, 255; Lew Oats 17s;
Rape, 26s ; these, it will be admitted, are sharp rates at the lat-
ter end of harvest. Flour and Oatmeal upward to-day, but less
doing, owing more to the apprehension of larger arrivals than
the immediate stocks on ha, d. The, baking trade has unques-
tionably been greatly extended from the immense consumption,
at same time it is stated, that at the present rates of flour. their
profits are but small, this, however, can cnly be said o, first-rate
bakers we shou'd think tat second class traders are much bet-
ter off, inasmuch as they manage to reduce their average by
mixing, and are not very particular as to weight they give.

BIRMINGHAM CORN MARKET, Ovr. 28.
During the present week, few transactions are reported in
English wheat, and rather lower prices have been submitted
Some quantity of foreign has changed hands at rates which
could not before be obtained. Barley is to as dearer. Beans
sold at an advance of Is per quarter. We h•lye a fair retail de-
mand for Oats at former prices. At this day's market there was
a less supply of Wheat, from the farmers, but the trade ruled
dull, with the turn in favour of the buyer. Barley 2s per quar-
ter dearer. In Oats very little doing. Beans were generally
held for prices with which buyers would not comply. Pease
continue scarce.

MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, OCT. 31.
Our market, as well as those of Liverpool and Wakefield, has
been quiet during the week ; Wheat and Flour have not varied
in value, whilst Beans, Oats, and feeding stuffs, have realized
rather higher prices.
At our exchange to-day, buyers of Wheat and Flour act cau-
tiously, and seem inclined to fall baok on their stocks : for some
qualities of both a slight reduction on previous rates would be
submitted to; but this is not so general as to lead us to alter
our quotations.
The scarcity of Oats and Oatmeal enables holders to obtain
high prices; but the business done is in retail lots to needy pur-
chasers.
Beans and Malt Is. per quarter and load higher. Low feeding
stuff is scarce and in demand.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET. OCT. 30.
On Monday an additional impulse was given to the specula-
tive demand by the arrival of the Great Western, and an ad-
vance of id per lb was obtained on American descriptions ; no
change in prices was produced yesterday on receipt of latter
intelligence per Hibernia, but the market closed steadily at the
above advance for American, and at very full prices for all other
descriptions. Speculators have taken 19,300 American, 700
Egyptian, 400 Maranharn, and 2700 Surat, and Exporters 1550
American and 250 Surat. sg) American and 70 Surat have been
forwarded into the country unsold during the month.
