CORN EXCHANGE, NOVEMBER 17.

The duty on Foreign Pease is reduced to gs 6d, upon Colonial
Pease to is gd per quarter; advance on Foreign Rye to Its 6d.
and upon Colonial Rye to 3s per qr ; the import rates upon all
other produce remaining for the ensuing week unvaried.
Between Tuesday last and to day, the arrivals into this place
consist of a moderately fair supply of Wheat, Oats, and Flour,
with a further large quantity of Oatmeal from Ireland ; also a
few parcels of Wheat Coastwise and from Canada, and from the
latter source 5271 barrels of Flour. _ .

During the same period, the transactions here for all sorts of
free produce, have been rather limited in amount ; except for
Canadian Flour, of which some of the late arrivals, being of
superior quality, several thousand barrels have changed hands
at 31s for holding over, and a few hundred: barrels of States
Flour, in bond, have been taken for export at 22s to 22s 6d per
barrel. -

Upon a good attendance of buyers at our Corn Exchange to-
day, including a few millers from the interior, the trade for all
descriptions of Wheat was decidedly firmer than for some weeks
past; the general qualities of English and duty-paid Foreign,
though not in lively request, fully maintained our last quota-
tions; and Irish, forming the principal object of attraction,
moved off steadily at an advance of Id to 2d per plb.—Hoy
made and Irish Flour met some inquiry, -

fully required, very few sales were effected • whilst Canadian,
commanding a preference over all other kinds, continued to
meet a fair demand on the terms above stated.
Prime English Barley, being scarce, and grinding samples ge-
nerally, may be considered fully as dear as last noted ; and a

Oatmeal, in the face of a further liberal supply, was in fair re
quest at a slight improvement in value.

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, Nov. 20.
Except for the best Butters, the demand continues sluggish.
Prices are, however, not lower, and as we understand, sup-
plie3 come very slowly into the Trish markets. We shall not
be surprised to notice an upward movement in a week or two.
Provisions continue the same.

BIRMINGHAM CORN MARKET, Nov. 15.
During the present week English wheat has been firmly held
at former prices. Malting Barley, except of the finest quality,
was a dull sale, at a decline of Is per quarter; grinding parcels
must also be considered Is per quarter lower. Beans and Peas
support their value. For Oats some improvement is required,
but buyers hold off in expectation of a better supply.

LIVERPOOL HIDE & SKIN MARKET, Nov. 17.

very good-Ist class Irish, 3s )0d ; 2nd class do. and cheviots,

Veal Skins.

WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET, Nov. 17.
There is a fair arrival of Wheat to this day's market; the best
qualities meet a lively demand, on fully as good terms as on
• rea teltnn nff elnurly

this day se'nnight, but the secondary sorts are taken on slowly,
at former rates. Although the supply of Barley is small, there
is great difficulty in affecting sales at last week's prices. Oats

are scarce, are the turn dearer. Shelling also sells a little
better.—Beans are in good demand, and fully support their
value.
