LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, AUGUST 16.

The arrivals of Foreign Wheat, though hitherto less abun-
dant than those of last week, are still rather liberal ; and of
Flour from Canada we have again to note a fair supply, with
a few further parcels of Pease and Oatmeal thence, and 2112
quarters Egyptian Beans ; but except 2313 barrels Flour, no
produce from the United States, and little either Coastwise
or from Ireland since this day se'nnight.
Favoured by a continuance of admirably fine weather,
harvest in this circle of the country is now general; and pro-
gressing more rapidly than we have known it for many years,
there is every prospect, unless interrupted by a sudden
change, of much corn being saved in excellent condition
during the present week ; these considerations, combined
with similar accotints from all parts of the kingdom, and the
disturbed state of the manufacturing districts excluding our
usual intercourse with,those markets, prohibit any extensive
business for the moment ; otherwise, the comparatively low
rates at which we have now arrived, are certainly well calcu-
lated to promote a much improved demand for consumption.
The display of Foreign Wheat and Flour this morning
has been increased by the large amount of duties paid, and
the determination of importers to clear the stocks out of bond
before Friday next ; which, and the causes previously stated,
deterring the buyers from purchasing more than is needful to
serve their immediate wants, both thede articles have met a
very limited demand; the former receding in value rather
below the rates of this day week, and reducing that of the
latter Is. per barrel.
Barley, Malt, Beans, and Pease, continuing to excite
little or no attention, the prices of each are very irregular
and scarcely ascertainable.
A small parcel of Irish new Oats in to-day, realised
3s. ld. per 45 lbs ; but in old, little or no business
was apparent, and such may be noted id. per bushel cheaper
Irish Oatmeal, however, was in moderate request at a de-
cline of is. per 2401b5., and a lot of Canadian was disposed
of at 205.-, including barrels.
