HULL CORN MARKET, MAY 12

At to-day's market we had a large attendance of farmers, but
upon hearing the dull accounts from Mark-lat e, most of them
refused to show their samples ; however, what little business
was done in Wheat, was at a decline of fully 3s to 4s per quarter;
In bonded Wheat we have nothing doing. In spring corn we
heard of no transactions.

WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET, MAY 15.
The supplies of all grain are tolerably good. There was a
very thin attendance of buyers this morning, and an extremely
limited business was transacted in all descriptions of Wheat, at
a decline of fully 3s to 4s per quarter. Barley, of fresh malting
quality, in fair request, at Is per quarter less money. Beans
dull and rather cheaper. Oats id per stone, and shelling Is per
load lower. Malt as before.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, MAY 12.
The receiptS into this port, for the week ending yester-
day, include a tolerable quantity of Wheat and a liberal
supply of Flour from Ireland, but of other articles thence

or of any coastwise, except Malt, the arrivals are siv;ill
those from abroad containing a fair accession of Wheat
and Indian Corn, with 28,130 barrels of Flour from the
United States, thereby increasing the stock of this article
under bond in Liverpool, t 3 536,369 barrels.

CORN EXCHANGE, MAY 15.
The duties are reduced this week on Foreign Wheat to 16s,
Oats to 55. Beans to 7s 6d per quarter, and on Flour to gs 7id
per barrel.
Since our last report the arrivals of all British and Irish pro-
duce have been rather light; but of Foreign Wheat, Beans an d
Pease, we have to note a tolerable supply, with a fair quantity
of States and Canadian Flour; the latter being one of the ship-
ments of last season, and the vessel having been ashore, the
cargo 113 more or less damaged.

The trade here has remained generally quiet during the inter.
val from Tuesday last, but without any material difference in
prices from the reduced currencies of that day.
Having an unusually slender attendance at our Corn Ex-
change to-day, and the millers • remai.iing inactive for the pre
sent, the Wheat trade was extremely heavy, and the business

on the whole so very insignificant

Barley, Malt and Pease, in like manner, were equally languid,
and each the turn lower in value. Beans, upon a mot:eratc de-
mand, supported late prices. Indian Corn, continuing in re.
west for Ireland, a cargo of yellow in bond real,sed 37s per
IS,'lb., and parcels, euty paid, upheld their former value.
Oats, attended with a moderate inquiry, maintained previous

rates. Of Oatmeal a sale or two have been made for shipment
to Ireland, but for English Consumption was dull and 6d per

oad cheaper

In Wheat under bond no business was apparent to-day; and
Western States Flour, of which lee° barrels were forced off
yesterday at 25s 6d, was less sought after this morning, the ac-
counts from New York and Montreal having checked the
demand, and reduced the price I s per barrel.
