LEEDS CORN MARKET, FEB. 11.
The arrivals are moderate of Wheat and ct er Grain. Our
millers bought rather freely, and the best runs of Wheat sup-
ported late prices; inferior dull, and to make sales lower rates
had to be taken. Beans rather lower. In Oats no change.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE. FEB. 11.
Since this day week we have continued to experience
all the rigours of a hard winter, and a greater quantity of
snow has lately fallen here than in any one season for
many years past; but the wind, although it has generally
blown from the east, has been variable occasionally, and
during that period we have to note, in consequence,
moderate arrivals of Grain, Flour, and Oatmeal, coast-
wise and from Ireland, with a few parcels of Barley and
Beans from abroad, as specified in our import note be-
neath.

Nothing having occurred to counteract the dullness so
long prevailing in the leading markets of the kingdom,
and being still deprived of any efficient intercourse with
those inland, we have to report a very languid trade in
all kinds of Wheat this morning, English and Irish at the
reduction of Friday, and Foreign scarcely at the rates of
this day week.

Sack'Flour continued to meet a difficult sale at 6d. to
14. per sack from the quotations of last week ; and though
States and Canadian were held at former prices, yet to
effect sales rather lower terms must have bee❑ conceded.

Barley and Malt remained in very slow request, but
were held at former prices.

Beans and Pease, attended with very little demand
scarcely maintained our last currency.

Oats continuing to meet a very slow demand, must be
noted ld. per 45 lbs. cheaper than last week; and Oat-
meal receded 3d. to 6d. per 240 lbs.

CORN fiXeITA NCB, Fsaarjtay 14.
Duties upon all kinds of Foreign as well as Colonial produce

...ad increasing stock of Flour
here and at Manchester, the millers continued t purchase
VF heat with extreme caution, and all descriptions of English,
w,tti the general runs of Irish, were offefed with little effect,
at a further decline of fully Id. per 701 b., one or two very choice
parcels of the latter only obtaining Tuesday's rates; in Foreign
Whe«ts, however, no business transpired, in consequence of
holders refusing to accept lower terms. Flour of all denomi-
nations, being equally unsaleable, was nominally rather
cheaper.

Prime malting Barley and Malt, although in very limited de-
mand, were held at late prices; whilst the former for grinding
purposes was somewhat depres,ed in value. Beans and Pea e,
with little or no inquiry, were decidedly easier to I.urchase.
Oats and Oatmeal, in the absence of country buyers, moved
off very sparingly, and scarcely maintained our last quotations.
