LIVERPOOL HAY AND POTATOE MARKET,
DECEMBER 15, 1842.
Since the gth instant, the arrival of Potatoes has been light.
There has been little variation in the aspect of the trade since
our last report—moderate supplies from all quarters have been
met:by an equally moderate retail demand, at prices varying little
from the quotations of our last,—the great bulk of the business
being chiefly confined to the operations of country dealers from the
interior, who have been purchasing the best run of Cups from 12d
to 12d, and the small quantity sold in retail at the quay range from
13d to 14d per golb.-15d has in some instances been realized for
very choice quality.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, DECEMBER 13:
A few limited parcels of Irish and Canadian Wheat, to-
gether merely 2,420 quarters, comprise the whole arrivals of
this Grain into our port since Tuesday last. Of other Grain
as well as Flour received Coastwise and from Ireland, the
supplies are also very moderate, but of Oatmeal liberal, and
of States and Canadian Flour 2,771 barrels.
At our market this morning the Wheat trade exhibited no
features of an interesting character, the millers still gene-
rally hesitating to purchase more than just to serve their
immediate purposes ; and devoid at the same time of any
speculative indications; the transactions altogether were un-
important: holders, notwithstanding, were tolerably firm,
and we repeat, without alteration, the currency of this day
week for all descriptions of foreign ; fine parcels of new
Irish, however, ih the present scarcity of supply, were rather
improved in value; in English no variation. Superior qua-
lities of States and Canadian Flour met some demand at 6d.
per barrel advance, and Irish was also in better request at
previous rates.

Malt, including all kinds of malting and grinding Barley,
continued to meet a very limited sale on the terms last noted.
Beans and Peas remaining unsaleable, were nominally rather
cheaper.

Oats and Oatmeal, restricted to a very moderate retail de-
mand, the former barely sustained the rates of Friday last,
and the latter declined 3d. per 240 lbs., leaving the extreme
quotation of prime Irish 21s. 6d.
