HULL CORN MARKET, JULY 16.
There have been occasional showers during the week, which
must have done much good to the growing crops ; yesterday,
however, we had a tremondou3 fall of rain, accompanied by
heavy hail, and this morning the wheat crops are reported to be
a good deal laid. At this day's market. although we have been
again shortly supplied with Engl sh Wheat, trade ruled very
dull at Is per quarter decline ; and the same reduction must be
noted on Foreign Wheat, where sales could be effected, but the
transactions were very limited. Barley meets slow sale, but no
alteration in value can be noted. Beans and Peas are each Is.
per qr. cheaper. Oats are also Is, per quarter lower, although
pot many offering.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, JULY 16.
The receipts into this port Coastwise and from Ireland
furnish a moderately fair supply of Grain and Flour ; and
united to considerable arrivals flowing in daily from
abroad, especially of Wheat and Flour, the total imports
since this day week amount to 23,307 qrs. of the former,
with 6,788 sacks and 38,954 barrels of the latter ; besides
3,384 qrs. of Barley.
OcCasional showers in this district in the course of last
week, a copious steady rain for about ten hours on Satur-
day, and more again yesterday morning, followed by a
brisk drying wind, have pt oved a seasonable relief to all
the growing crops ; which are greatly improved. and if
favoured with fine weather, promise a much more pro-
ductive harvest than was previously anticipated. These
superabundant accessions, and a return of fine clear
weather, have produced, not only increased dullness at
this day's market, but a further decline in the value of
most articles of the trade. Having few millers in attend-
ance, and those exercising caution, the sales of Wheat
were very limited in amount, and all descriptions of Eng-
lish, Irish, and Foreign receded 2d. to 3d. per 701bs. from
the terms of this day se'nnight.—English and Irish Flour
in consequence, being more difficult to sell, an abatement
of 6d. to Is. per sack was submitted to ; and Canadian
barely supported the reduced rates of Friday.
Barley, Malt, Beans, and Pease, continued to be
nearly without inquiry, and were offered, with very little
effect, at a decline of fully ls. per quarter.
Oats, participating in the general languor, were Id. per
45 lbs. cheaper, and small retail sales only practicable.
Oatmeal was also 6d. per 2401b5. lower. at which, how-
ever, about 3,000 loads were cleared off by consumers.

liberal, having several fresh arrivals of Wheat and Pease, with
700 qrs. Barley and 15,647 barrels Flour from that direction ; In
addition to 2453 qrs. of Indian Corn, and 2926 barrels Flour
from the United states. With frequent heavy showers and
alternate sunshine during the week, the weather has on the
whole been of a character favourable to the progress of the
crops; and though all seems to depend on the contingency of
weather at this critical season, the prospects hitherto hiving
been such as to give prices a Conti ual tendency to depression,
the trade has remained generally dull since Tuesday, with almost
nominal rates upon the limited business transacted. Upon a
slender attendance of town and corntry millers, the demand
for Wheat this morning was altogether upon a very moderate
scale, and being wholly restricted to the present wants of
necessitous buyers, even the best descriptions of English, Irish
attd Foreign, barely sustained the reduced rates of Tuesday,
and all other qualities were decidedly rather cheaper. Good
marks of Irish Floor, however, were in fair request on the full
terms last noted, and although the general runs of Canadian
were unaltered in value, prime brands, notwithstancing the
large supply at hand, realised an advance of 6d per barrel. No
free State Flour is now offering, the whole of the late arrivals
being held under bond. Barley, Malt and Pease, being scarcely
noticed, exhibited a tendency to decline further in value; and
Beans, continuing to be taken off sparingly, were the turn
cheaper. Oats and Oatmeal being likewise extremely difficult
to dispose of to-day, the transactions in each were very unim-
portant, and to effect sales beyond a merely retail amount,
rather lower terms must have been conceded.

MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, JuLY 20.
Supplies of home produce continue moderate, but referenee
to the list shews a large arrival of Canadian and Foreign Wheat
and Flour. The whole of the former comes at once upon the
market, and as regards the latter, importers pay the duty upon
the Wheat, where sales can be made, but the Flour is bonded to
be available for the export demand that frequently arises for this
article.
These circumstances, with a continuance of favourable
weather, ke-p the trade very flat.
Buyers take nothing but what their immediate wants require,
whilst sellers, though induced to meet them, do not press sales
of any article at more than a trifling concession in price.
This day's IT arket calls for no particular observation as regards
any one article: the demand for each being confined to the
war is of needy purchasers, at prices tending downwards, but
on the whole, without any very decided change from the quo-
tations of our last.
