CORN EXCHANGE. AITOUST 18,

Although in some parts of the cotintryth s ws'ek, the weather
is reported to have been unsettled, accounts from other districts
speak of it more favourably.. In this locality it has been varia-
ble, gloomy, with but few bright ntervals, and not exempt from
occasional showers.: in the course of yesterday, however, we
had heavy rain for several hours, which, combi .ed with the
uncertain state of harvest, gave a strong impulse to speculative
buyers, and Wheat, Indian Corn, and Egyptian Beans were
taken rather eagerly and at higher pric s for investment ; con-
sumers, at the. same tt",ie, not being equally active, and the
afternoon becoming fine, the demand subsided. Prevented by
easterly winds during the greater part of the week, we have
scarcely any arrivals -of Grain to report, beyond 2835 quarters
of Wheat from abroad ; and the stocks, generally, i the gra-
nariei of this place being comparatively light, a limited d. splay
only of samples were exhibited at our Corn Exchange to-day ;
but although the market was tolerably well attended by Eng-
lish, and several Irish buyers appeared, the great improvement
in the weather this morning, gave a decided check to further
extensive operations for the moment: in free Wheats, how-
ever, sales upon a moderate scale were effected at an advance
of 2d., and those in bond were 3d. per 701 b. clearer, several
parcels of which were bought for Ireland.—lrish and American
Flour, though not in,lively request, realised Is. per sack and Is.
per barrel over 'Tuesday's rates.—Barley. being more saleable,
was held on rather higher terms ; and Malt steadily maintained
late prices.—Beans and Pease, meeting a fair demand, improved
Is. per quarter each.—Oats c Anmanded Id. per 451 b., and Oat-
meal Cd. per loal above our last quotations, at which, both
attracted a tolerableshare of attention.—The demand for Indian
Corn for consumption, having materially abated, the ransac-
tions in this article to-day were iv incipally limited to specula
Live purchasers, who bought much less freely than yesterday,
at Is. per quarter over the annexed currency.lndiari Meal in
fair request at an advance of Is. per barrel —Duties on Foreign
Wheat is reduced to ss. per .quarter; and on Flour to 4s. 9d.
per barrel.

SALFORD CATTLE MARKET, AUG. 16

We were well supplied to-day with stick, and though buyers
were numerous, st►ll it was difficult to support last week's,
rates, either for Beef or Mutton. A• fair clearance was made
before the close of the market.
