CORN MARKETS.

LIVERPOOL, AUGUST 1, 1851.—During the two days inter-
vening since our last the weather here has been wet and fair
alternately ; accounts from various parts of the country are
also to a similar purport, and a dry season for maturing and
saving the harvest is now exceedingly desirable. Meanwhile
the rains hitherto appear to have little or no direct influence
upon the prices of grain; the imports from abroad being suffi-
ciently large to render the millers and dealers nearly independ-
ent of home supplies, to place the British and Irish markets in
a state of apathy. and indifference, and to counteract the slight-
est tendency to improvement ; the trade here, within the same
period, having likewise remained passive on the terms last
noted. Exclusive of a fair quantity of Malt, the supplies into
this port coastwise and from Ireland have been small; and
those from abroad, since Monday last, only moderate com-
pared with previous weeks' arrivals recently. Having but a
limited number of country millers at our market to-day, and
no active feeling displayed on the part of home buyers, the
sales of Wheat altogether were very unimportant, and although
holders continued to require late prices, yet any description of
British or foreign scarcely maintained the rates of Tuesday
last.—Prime brands of States and Canadian Flour met a good
inquiry on the full terms last noted, the seconda' y and inferior
kinds selling at rather irregular prices within the range of our
quotations annexed; French and other kinds of Flour remain-
ing in moderate request and stationary in value.—Barley and
Malt were more saleable at former prices.—Egyptian Beans
were held 3d. to 6d. per quarter higher, all other sorts remain-
ing unvaried.—Oats were taken in small parcels only, without
any change in value.—Oatmeal continuing in steady demand
was quite as dear as before.—Having few Irish buyers over to-
day, Indian corn moved rather sparingly, and declined 6d. per
quarte

MANCHESTER, AUGUST 2.—The weather since Saturday
last has been variable, and at intervals a good deal of rain has
fallen, without, however, having produced any sensible effect
on the prices of Wheat and Flour, for the latter we have ex-
perienced a little better demand during the last two days; but,
on the whole, we have to report a week of dull and inactive
business, at previously current rates. Our market to-day is
thinly attended: prime qualities of Wheat and Flour sell slowly
at the prices of this day week, whilst secondary and inferior
parcels, are, in some instances, offered at a trifling reduction.
The demand for Oats is merely in retail : late rates scarcely
supported. No change in Beans, Peas, or other articles.
LEEDS, JULY 29.—We continue to be liberally supplied with
grain, fully equal to the demand. Wheat barely supports last
Tuesday's prices, and the trade is dull. No alteration in the
value of other descriptions of corn. A great quantity of rain
has fallen since Tuesday last.
WAKEFIELD, AUGUST I.—We have a fair supply of most
articles. The demand for wheat is quite of a retail character,
and confined to fresh qualities, which are obtained on easier
terms. Oats and shelling more freely offered and rather lower.
Grinding Barley fully as dear. In Beans and other articles no
armee.
WISBECIT, AUGUST 2.—There has been a fair quantity of
Wheat here to-day, but the farmers will not reduce their price,
therefore hardly any business has been done. A few samples
of new Rapeseed appeared, condition and quality various, and
prices from 40s. to 425. per quarter. No Spring Corn offering.
NEWCASTLE-ON-TYNE, 2ND AUGUST.—There was a mo-
derate supply of country Wheat at our market this morning,
which met a slow sale at the prices of last Saturday. For
foreign and south country there was a moderate demand at
rather lower prices.—Oats were in fair supply from the farmers
and sold slowly at the rates of this day se'nrught.
DUBLIN, AUGUST I.—The weather since Tuesday has, on
the whole, been favourable, which has caused a continued
dulness in our corn market, except for Oats, which brought an
advance of 3d. to 6d. per barrel. We further reduce our
quotations for Indian Corn Is. to 25., and for every other article
we repeat Tuesday's quotations. A few samples of new Here
were again sold at 10s. 6d., and Rapeseed brought 19s. 6d. to
20s, also. for 16 stone.

CORK, AUGUST 2. The consumption of Bread is greatly
diminished this week, and Flour has a most restricted sale at
at about late rates. Wheat maintains last week's prices, with
a fair demand. Indian Corn neglected, A few parcels of new
Oats.and Barley have come to market, and look well.
