LIVERPOOL CORN EXCIIANG'

74. JULY 18.

The favourable state of the weather, and the daily advance-
ment of the coming Grain crops, which, by advices from nearly
all parts of the United Kingdom, are reported to be general,
continue, in most English markets, to exercise a depressing
influence upon the trade; whilst in Ireland, prices in many
instances still rather improve, in consequence of inadequate
deliveries from the growers, and the limited quantity of Indian
Corn and Corn Meal remaining unconsumed. In both coun-
tries, complaints of the re-appearance of disease in the
Potatoe crop have been more numerous within the
last few days than heretofore during the present season ; yet
these complaints are so far by no means general, and, from the
sound state in which this important article of food was pre-
served during the past winter, there is yet a hope that the ma-
lady may not spread extensively, the crop immediately around
us exhibiting, with very rare exceptions, a most healthy ap-
pearance.
Having a slender attendance of buyers at this day's market
the transactions on any description of Whfat were upon a
limited scale, at a decline of Id., and in partial instances of 2d.
per 701 b. from the rates of this day week.
In Flour a moderate business was transacted, with no mate-
rial variation in price.
Barley and Malt in slow demand, at our last quotations.
Beans and Peas a very dull sale and the turn cheaper, except
in Egyptians, which have moved rather more freely to-day, at a
slight amendment in value.
Oats, from the short supply at hand, realized a small advance.
Oatmeal, though not freely called for, was held rather more
firmly on the terms last noted.
The stock of Indian Corn and Meal is almost exhausted ; the
former advancei:! Is. per quarter, and the latter ad. per barrel.

CORN

;XCHANGE. .1

LILY 21

We have to report the arrival of a moderate quantity of
Wheat and a little Barley from the continent of Europe, with
one parcel of Wheat and 120.2 barrels of Flour from Canada;
besides which, the foreign receipts of the last three flays are
confined to a small import of Indian Corn and Corn Meal from
the United States; the arrivals coastwise and from Ireland
being still quite unimportant.
The fine weather alluded to in oar late circulars, has been
succeeded by a sudden and unfavourable change, gales of
wind wi.h frequent heavy showers having prevailed throughout
the past two days.—The trade in consequence not only assumed
more firmness, but both free and bonded Wheat, as well as
Flour, were held for rather money.—lndian Corn also continued
in good request for Ireland, and the stock here being small and
in few hands, acquired 2s. per qr. advance on all descAptions.
By American adyices to the 3rd instant, prices of Wheat and
Flour continued too high for export to England, and only a
limited quantity of Indian Corn was then in course of ship-
ment.—Quotations at New York for wheat 435. to 475. per
4Eolb ; Flour, 225. to 235. per barrel ; India,: Corn 19s to 205.
per 4801 b. ; Corn Meal 105. 9d. to Ils. 3d. per barrel, free on
board.—Freights for grain 6d. per bushel; Flour or Meal I s.ed.
to is. 9d. per lima].

Continued wet weather during Market hours, coupled with
light socks of nearly all descriptions of corn produce remain-
ing in the granaries of this
,port, imparted a lively impulse to
the trade this morning, anti most articles improved in value.
English, Irish, and foreign Wheat, of all useful qualities, were
in good demand, realizing 2d. to 3d. per 70:b. above the current
rates of Tuesday.—Home-made and Irish Flour fully main-
tained our last quotations, and States, as well as Canadian
brands, were in fair request at an amendment of Gd. per brl.
Barley and Malt ruled steadily at late prices.—Beans com-
manding somewhat more attention, general qualities were held
with increased confidence, and Egyptians were decidedly 6d.
per quarter dearer.—ln Pease no change was apparent.—Oats
being more, saleable, advanced lid. per -151 b. ; and Oatmeal,
previously neglected, improved Gd. to 9d. per load.
Indian Corn and Corn Meal becoming scarce, and having se-
veral buyers again from Ireland, each met a ready sale, the
former at 3s. per quarter, and the latter Is. per barrel over the
terms noted on Tuesday last.
