LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, JUNE 4.
The receipts into this port, Coastwise and from Ireland,
since Tuesday last, comprise a moderately fair quantity of
Oats, Malt, and Flour, with a few limited parcels of
Wheat and other produce ; while from the North and
South of Europe, including a cargo or two from Egypt,
the fresh supply of Wheat is unusually abundant, ccom-
panied by several arrivals of other Foreign Grain and
Flour, as stated below.
Having a numerous attendance of local and country
buyers at this day's market, and a more active disposition
to purchase most articles of the trade than for some time
past; all good descriptions of Wheat met a tolerably
extensive sale at an advance of Id. per 701b5., and the
lower qualities maintained the rates of this day week.
Flour also, was generally rather dearer and more readily
saleable.
The crops of spring corn and grass, upon all light
soils around us, continuing to suffer severely from
intense drought, Barley, Malt, and Beans attracted con-
siderable attention, and were in good request, at an im-
provement of 2s. per quarter ; Pease, at the same time,
being in moderate demand, at our last quotations.
Oats, being equally affected by the weather, were dis-
posed of freely at an advance of 2d. per 451 b. ; and Oat-
meal was taken to some extent at an advance of 6d. to 9d.
per 2401 b. over the terms of this day se'nnight.

CORN F,XCHANGE. JUNE 7.
The arrivals coastwise and from Ireland are still very mode-
rate in amount, but of foreign Wheat within the last three
days,,we have to report a further large supply from the Con-
tinental ports of Europe, with 1760 qrs. Beans from Alexan-
andria, and 156 qrs Pease from Rostock.

A change of wind, attended with about six hours rain on
Wednesday, the first of any consequence in this district since
the 13th April, was followed by genial showers in the course of
yesterday, which have greatly improved the face of the country,
and appear already to have produced a favourable effect upon
all the crops around us; thereby tending to repress the pre-
vious disposition to purchase freely, and the transactions here,
during the interval since Tuesday have been, therefore, gene-
rally unimport,nt, but with little variation iu the price of any
article from our last currency.
With more rain early this morning and fine growing weather,
our market exhibited no interesting features in any branch of
the Corn trade to-day; for although several millers attended
from the country, no active business was apparent in Wheat,
and our local buyers remaining much on the reserve, the sales
of this grain were altogether upon a limited scale, at prices in
some cases equal to, and in others at a slight abatement from
the rates of Tuesday. English and Irish Flour, being in mo-
derate request, supported late prices; and Foreign, though
little noticed, was unaltered in value.
Owing to the causes expressed in the preceding remarks,
Barley, Malt, Beans and Peas, as well as Oats and Oatmeal,
were almost without inquiry and nominally cheaper ; as, how-
ever, the sale of any of these articles was nearly impracticable
to-day, it is difficult to quote such prices as might have been
realised had holders been determined to sell.

In bonded or floating produce, no further operations have
been reported.
