LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, Nov. 21.

The arrivals into this port, up to and since Friday last,
form for the week an abundant supply of Wheat, Oat-
meal and Flour, with a fair quantity of Oats from Ire-
land ; also several parcels of Wheat and Barley Coast-
wise • besides 876 qrs. of the former from Canada, 975
qrs. from Danzig, and of States and Canadian Flour 8795
barrels.

Having a numerous appearance of town and country
millers at this day's market, continuing to direct their
attention principally to Irish Wheats, a fair extent of
business was transacted therein at the advance of Friday
last, and a few sales of English and free foreign were ef-
fected on the terms of this day se'nnight. English, Irish,
and Canadian Flour of all descriptions was in very limited
demand, but held with tolerable firmness at late prices;
of States Flour in bond, however, about 1600 barrels
have been taken during the week and to-day, at 225. to
225. 6d. per barrel.
The fresh arrivals of Malting Barley have been partly
cleared, at our last quotations; and Malt, Beans, and
Pease, fully maintained their previous value.
Oats, exciting somewhat more attention than of late,
were disposed of to a fair amount, at last week's rates ;
and Oatmeal moved rather freely into the hands of con-
sumers, though, in some instances, a trifle under the cur-
rency of this day week.

CORN EXCHANGE, NOVEMBER 24

The duty has receded this week on Foreign to I gs, on Barley
to js per quarter, and on Flour to lls 5d per barrel; on Colo-
nial Barley to Bd, and on Beans to 2s per quarter.
With the exception of a further good supply of Oatmeal and
a moderate quantity of Flour from Ireland, the fresh arrivals
thence and all produce Coastwise, are exceedingly light, in a
great measure owing to boisterous weather since the early part
of the week; and 602 barrels United States Flour form the only
import from abroad within the pest three days.
. . .

The firmness previously noticed in the Wheat trade here, in-
fluenced by relatively high prices in Ireland, and a decreased
supply brought forward by the growers to the shipping ports of
that country, has been steadily maintained in the interval from
Tuesday last, though without any particular activity in sales !
for Flour, however, chiefly Canadian, there has been a moderate
inquiry; but most other articl- s, during that period, have ruled
uniformly dull.

Our market this morning was by no means so well attended
by either local or country millers as of late, nor was there any
evidence of that eager disposition to purchase Wheat as we re-
cently experienced; holders, nevertheless, continued to adhere
firmly to our last quotations, at which a moderate extent of bu-
siness was transacted in Irish, but very little in free Foreign,
and of English, the supply offering to-day, was too small to
either elevate or depress its value.—English, Irish, and Foreign
duty-paid Flour, continued to meet a dull lingering demand on
the terms last noted; and the on'y sale of this article reported
in bond, consisted of 500 barrels of States at 22s gd per barrel.
Having little or no malting Barley at hand, such would readily
command late prices, at which, grinding qualities moved gra-
dually into consumption; and Malt, being in fair request, fully
maintained our last currency.—Beans were the turn dearer, and
Peas steady in value, with a moderate demand for each.
Oats, upon a limited supply, were saleable at an advance of
nearly Id per 451 b; and Oatmeal was a good request, the best
marks of Irish new realizing 20s gd to 2is per 2401 b, and only
fully supporting the current rates of Tuesday last.

BIRMINGHAM CORN MARKET, Nov. 23.
Owing to the improved state of things in this district, farmers
were asking more money for wheat, but with this millers would
not comply, and the result was a limited business in wheat. No
change in foreign. Several lots of Oats found buyers at fully
previous rates. Barley, both English and Irish, dull sale at Is
less money. Old Beans and Pease fully as dear.
