LIVERPOOL. CORN EXCHANGE,—Tats DAY

(From Messrs. R. MAKIN & SONS' Circular.)

We have had almost uninterrupted heavy rain during the
past two days, and although no serious injury appears to he
already entertained, complaints are now prevalent from
many quarters of too much wet having fallen, and the con-
sequent want of warm sunshine. Our fresh supplies of all
articles are moderate, and the trade generally has remained
very firm from the close of Tuesday's market to the present
date, with a tendency to further advance in the value of Wheat,
of which purchases to a fair extent have been made by our
millers ; and the stocks continue to decrease gradually.

At the commencement of business at our Corn Exchange
to-day, holders of Wheat evinced an increased degree of con-
fidence, and generally disinclined to press sales, required 2d.
to 3d. per 70 lbs above Tuesday's rates ; the millers, however,
resisting the advance, bought very cautiously, and indepen-
dent of about 2,500 qrs. of old Baltic and Mediterranean
Wheat taken on speculation, with a few parcels for Irish
consumption, the transactions were very unimportant, the
trade for all descriptions of this grain closing at scarcely an
improvement of Id. to 2d. over our last quotations.
English and Irish Flour met some inquiry. but being held
Is per sack over late prices, sales appeared to progress rather
slowly ; and except for very choice brands, States and Cana-
dian remained stationary in value.

Barley and Malt steadily maintained former prices. Beans
and Pease, with a very limited demand, barely equalled the
terms last noted.
