LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, OCT. 24

Our supplies are considerably increased since the close
of the week, chiefly of Wheat, Oats, Flour, and Oatmeal
from Ireland; we have also to report several cargoes of
Foreign Wheat Roundland, and 2,356 barrels Flour from
Canada. _ _ _

The enhancement in the country districts during the
past week, with diminishing supplies from the growers, has
effected some amendment in Mark-lane, which, though
barely equalling the advance lately established here, ap-
peared to confirm the improved tone of the trade in the
e,rly part of our market this morning ; but the millers
acting very much on the reserve, in the face of a good sup-
ply of Wheats offering, the transactions in this article
proved very limited in amount, and before the close new
Irish parcels were saleable at only about the increased
rates of Friday, except for very superior qualities, which
reached a trifle more. Foreign Wheats were also dull,
and made no more than on this day week.—Flour was
held for 6d. to Is. advance, but sold with difficulty.

English Malting Barley varies in quality from 325. to
365. per quarter. Beans more saleable, and Is. per qr.
dearer. Pease in moderate request at the quotations.
Prime Mealing Oats brought 2s. sd. to 2s. 51d. per
451 b., though in limited quantity only. Oatmeal was in
better demand, at an increase in value of 6d. per sack on
both old and new.
Since the sale of 1.000 barrels at the close of the week
at 21s. 9d., nothing has been done in Bonded Flour.

CORN EXCHANGE, OCTOBER 27

There is no alteration this week in any of the duties, whether
Foreign or Colonial.

Although the liberal imports stated in our circular of Tuesday
last have not sines been followed up by any arrivals of magni.
tude, except Flour and Oatmeal, of which a further good sup-
ply is to hand, the Grain trade on the whole, from that period to
the present date, has remained rather languid, confined chiefly
to consumers, on much the same terms as previously noted.
We had a moderaie attendance of town and country millers
at this day's market. and though not many transactions took
place in Wheats in consequence of holders refusing to accept an
batement, a fair extent of business would have been done in
good descriptions at a little under our last quotations, both for
consumption. and with speculators, several of whom were desi-
rous of repeating investments in this Grain : if anything, prices
were the turn in favour of the buyes.—Flour, upon a limited de-
m rid, barely sustains the currency of Tuesday.
The late arrivals of English malting Barley have been mostly
sold at 84s to 365. per quarter, and gri,cling samples of Irish and
Foreign support former pi ices. Malt, Beans, and Peas, attended
with occasional sales, remain firm in value.
Oats, without any active demand, move off gradually at our
last quotations; whilst Oatmeal continues to meet a ready sale,
for holding over as well as for consumption, and commands ra-
ther higher prices.
No transactions are reported in bond.
