LIVERPOOLCIjt EXCJANGE, APItIL 2

The arrivals of En..tlish, Scotch, and Irish Grt-tin into
this pit since Tu-stlay last are on the whole rather incon-
sidertAble, but of Fleur attd O antral we have to note a
further good supply; the imports from abroad, during the
week, comprising merely 3,990 qrs. of Wheat and 214
barrels of Flour.

A.lthougn i.ur market this morning was tolerably well
attended by town and country millers, the trade was not
quite so lively as on Friday ; to neces'itous buyers, how-
ever, English, Irish, and Foreign Wh-ats, duty-paid,
were i;isposed of to a fair extent at the rates of Tuesday
last, and two or three samples of fine Irish realised an
advance of id. per 701135. A few parcels of Foreign were
also taken for Irish account.

Flour was in moderate request, commanding the full
currency of this day week, with rather an improving
aspect.
In Barley, Malt, Beans, or Pease, though little busi-
ness was apparent, prices remained unaltered.
Oats being still in limited supply continued to be held
firmly, and fine mealing qualities are noted id. per 431bs.
above our last quotations.
Oatmeal was iaken much less freely than at the close of
the week, but was 3d. per load dearer than on Tuesday
last. _

The weather latterly having been exceedingly fine, and
still continuing as favourable as possible, the land in this
part of the country is now in admirable condition for the
reception of the seed ; and without the least interruption,
the labours of husbandry are going on vigorously, with the
prospect of being brought to an early conclusion.
In consequence of Good Friday intervening, our next
market will be held on Thursday.

CORN EXCHANGE, APRIL 4.
• During the short interval since Tuesday, we have had no ar-
rivals of Wheat or Oats from any quarter, nor any Grain
whatever from Ireland; the only receipts thence, within that
period, consisting of 660 loads of Oatmeal with 1669 sacks of
Flour; an I, excepting a moderate quantity of Malt, we have
scarcely any thing to notice Coastwise; while the imports fresh
in from abroad are restricted merely to Ig2o qrs of Egyptian
Beans from Malta, and 4001 barrels Flour from the American
States.

It is understood the duty on Foreign Wheat will he reduced
this week to 16s per qr, and on Flour to gs 7id per barrel
Our markerthis morning king he'd out of the regular course.
and following so closely after that of Tuesday, we have had
very few buyers from the country to-day ; the trade for most
kinds of Wheat, however, assumed a more healthy appearance
for some weeks past . and the neighbouring millers, who are
generally low in stock, having bought more freely than of late,
several further purchases also aking place for Ireland, the
transactions on the whole, chiefly in duty. paid For ign. were
to a fair extent, and for all descriptions of this Grain our last
quotations were fully maintained. Flour likewise met an im-
proving demand, with a slight amendment in the value of all
good qualities.
_ _ _ _ _

Barley. Malt, Beans and Pease continued to move off very
sparingly on Ihe terms last noted.

Oats, without any additional supply, sustained late price,,
but in the absence of country dealers, one or two cart: es only
were disposed of to-day ; and Oatmeal, although in limited re-
quest, supported our last currency.
