CORN EXCHANGE, SEPTEMBER 13.

The only change in the duties this week is a decline in the
impost on Foreign Beans at 6s. 6d. per quarter.
A tolerable quantity of Wheat, Oatmeal, and Flour forms the
principal import into this place from Ireland since Monday, be-
sides which, we have to note a fair quantity of States and Cana_
dian Flour, with some fresh arrivals of Grain from the Baltic, as
stated below.
From the close of our last msrket to this date. the weather
here has been generally fine, and after some interruption to the
harvest in the North, during part of last week, it is now said to
progressing favourably there.

Since the ',Aces of Wheat have receded to their present low
position here, the trade has become more steady, the millers
having bought with less reserve; and while several parcels of
Foreign have been taken as investments, Irish new, now ar-
riving daily, has mostly found buyers at our last currency.—
Canadian Flour has also been in moderate request, superior
brands at full prices, and secondary qualities on previously low
terms.—ln other articles, however, the transactions, within
the past two days, have been unimportant.
Our market this morning having been well attended by town
and country buyers, the Wheat trade remained tolerably firm,
and, in the absence of an adequate supp'y of English and Irish
new, superior kinds were in fair demand at an advance of Id. to
ad. per 701 b, andthe lower qualities of each maintained our last
currency ; sales of Foreign Wheat likewise were effected to a
moderate extent, in partial cases at nearly a similar amend-
ment, but were chiefly confined to middling samples of Mediter-
ranean, most descriptions of Baltic remaining stationary in va-
lue- Good brands of Canadian and duty paid States Flour
continued to move rather freely into the hands of consumers at
late prices, whilst Irish was iu slow request, on the terms last
noted.

In Barley, Beans, and Pease, little business was apparent,
'without any decided change in value.
Oats, upon a very limited supply, supported former prices;
and Oatmeal, commanding a ready sale, the best cuts of old
were the turn dearer.

PRICES OF GRAIN.

MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, SEPT. 14.
More firmness has marked the course of the trade during the
past week, and prices have declined to a point, which seems to
be considered safe, we have had a steady sale for each article at
rates which, though asked, could on this day week be regarded!
as 1 ttle better than nominal.

The same observations apply to the Wakefield and Liverpool
markets of yesterday.
Our Exchange this morning is well attended, and Wheat, both
old and new, meets a fair sale at an advance of about 2d per
bushel on the rates of our last. Extra qualities of English and
Irish Flour aro scarce, and is per sack higher, whilst good
general descriptions are fully as dear. Canadian, of which
there again a large import, goes off slowly at late prices. The
value of good new is much the same as that of old. Old and
new Oats fully support previous value. There is considerable
enquiry for old Meal for feeding, at an advance of 3d to 6d per
load. The small quantity of new coming forward is retailed
off at our quotations. Malt and Beans firm at former prices.
