LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, THIS DAY

(From Messrs. R. MAKIN Sr SONS' Circular.)

The duty on Rye for the ensuing week is increased to
15s. 6d., on Beans to 21s. 3d., and on Pease to 19s. 9d. per
quarter, remaining unchanged upon all other Foreign, as
well as upon Colonial produce.

We are w ithout any arrivals of Wheat either Coastwise
or from Ireland, as nearly so as possible of other grain
thence, during the past three days, and we have only a mo-
derate further quantity of Oatmeal from the latter source.
The foreign supply consists of 500 quarters Rye and 8,418
barrels of Flour from the United States, with 3,370 quarters
of Wheat from the south of Europe.

The proceedings in any branch of the Corn trade, here, be-
tween Tuesday last and to-day, were almost wholly at a
stand ; and at our Corn Exchange, this morning, we expe-
rienced an exceedingly dull, lingering sale for Grain and
Flour of all descriptions.

Having scarcely any country! millers in attendance, the
transactions in free Wheat were confined to a few limited
parcels of Irish and Foreign, merely to serve the temporary
wants of needy buyers alone, and those on terms barely
equal to the current rates last noted. English and Irish
Flour proved very unsaleable, and good brands of Foreign
were 6d. per barrel cheaper. Wheat and Flour in bond have
met a little inquiry, but without leading to any business

worth naming,

Barley, Malt, and Beans appeared to command very little
notice, and each may be considered the turn lower. Pease

were in rather more request at late prices.
Oats continuing to exhibit the same dull aspect as before,
were rather depressed in value; and Irish Oatmeal receded
Gd to is per 240 lb below the reduced currency of Tuesday.

FRENCH AND ENGLISH IDEAS OF POPULARITY.—The
Commerce has the following :—" The Sun announces that
the Duke of Wellington and Sir R. Peel were hissed a few
days ago on their way to the houses of Parliament. If such
a circumstance were to happen in France, people would cry
out that the State was tottering. In England, however, it
does not produce the slightest sensation." [Certainly not;
especially when the character of the parties who hiss is taken
into consideration.]
