CORN

LIVERPOOL, AUG. 22.—We have had a tolerably
good attendance at this day's market, and have ex-
perienced a fair consumptive demand for fine wheat,
which maintain the rates of Tuesday, but little business
has been practicable in any secondary descriptions, and
the value of such is irregular, and generally rather lower.
Although a large portion of the cereal crops in this neigh-
bourhood is already cut, very few samples have appeared
for sale, and consequently no certain prices of new are
yet established ; offers of old wheats from the farmers,
however, are rather more numerous to-day, and realised
the annexed quotations. Flour in fair request, but only
choice fresh qualities support the currencies of Tuesday :
Canadian, in some cases, is sold a trifle cheaper from the
quay, and prime Spanish is saleable at 625. Barley and
beans, in limited request, barely supporting previous
prices. Oats find a slow sale, but oatmeal continues in
good demand. The market is cleared of prime yellow
Indian corn, and Irish buyers have taken secondary
descriptions to a good extent at full prices ; choice white
is also very scarce.

SRITISIf

MANCHEST:M, Av G. 24.—A very firm market to-day,
and both English and foreign met a free sale at full Prices.
Wheat was also in fair request, at late rates. The same
remark is applicable Woats, oatmeal, and Egyptian beans,
each being in better demand at last week's rates. Indian
4 corn steady.

DUBLIN, AUG. 24.—An opinion prevails that in con-
sequence of 24,000 trs. and 12,000 brls. of navy beef being
required for the fleet, the price of stock will hold firm.
Certain it is, that although the number of beasts at
Smithfield this day was considerably greater than at any
previous market this season, everything except inferior
cattle maintained, or nearly so, the rates of last week.
Prime well-finished stock was in brisk demand, but beasts
not up to the mark were in less request, and sal
easily effected at a downward tendency. The attei

of btlyers for export and home consumption was numerous,
the demand steady, and feeders seemed satisfied with the
results of the day. Including the 36,000 casks of cured
beef above referred to, it is understood that 50,000 trs. of
beef and 32,000 trs. of pork will be required for the

and navy, being the largest contract for the last half cen-
tury. Beef to-day, 50s to 60s, and 65s per cwt., sinking
offal ; mutton, sd, 51d, to 6,1 d, and 7d per lb.; veal, 6,id
to 7d per lb. in do.; lambs, 20s to 28s each. Pork, it is
supposed, will open about ed per lb. (on the Ist proximo),
or about 56s per cwt.
