LONDON CORN EXCHANGE. SEPT. 12.

The supplies throughout last week were moderate of English and
foreign Grain, and the demand being tolerably brisk for each des-
cription, prices rallied to the extent of 3s to 4s per quarter on the
former, and from ls to 2s on the latter. To this morning's market
the supply fresh up is very small of English, and the quality being
generally fine, added to a brisk demand, Wheats have been taken
off at an advance; of 3s from this day week, at which the stands
have been cleared. Foreign Wheat is from is to 2s dearer. Barley
is inquired after, and fine descriptions of new malting have realized
32s per quarter ; the supply, however, is but moderate. Oats are
fully as dear for good quatities, but light and inferior are still difficult
of sale. The supply of New Beans has been more abandant, but
prices have ueidergone no alteration. White boiling Peas are in
demand at fully the terms of last week, and in some instances is
advance has been obtained. Maple Peas have made 34s per quarter,
and common Hog ditto ai sto 32s per quarter. Winter Tares are
inquired after at an advance of 3s per bushel. • The seed trade is
very firm of all descriptions. Mustard and Canary • Seeds rather
looking up. In Flour or other articles we hear no alteration.
WEDNESDAY, September 14.

The market has been very firm this morning at iheiricer of Mon-
day, but though the supplies of Wheat are not extensive, and the
samples remarkably fine in quality, no further advance can be ob-
tained. There is a good supply of Oats, of excellent quality, but
this article appears to be only dealt in for the retail trade. The
duty on foreign Wheat reached 14S per quarter on Thursday last,
but what will be the further advance to-morrow, is a subject of con-
siderable doubt, but 17s per quarter will probably be the duty for
the ensuing week.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, SEPT. 13.

Since our report, of this day week, the fresh arrivals of
Wheat from abroad are rather liberal, having about 14,000 qrs.
to hand from the Baltic and Mediterranean ; we are also mo-
derately supplied with Canadian and States Flour, the latter
of which, at the present rate of duty, is partly being placed
under bond : the imports of new Wheat, Flour, and Oat-
meal from Ireland are at length rather on the increase, and
in a week or two hence we may expect a more regular and
extensive supply ; but until the last few days produce from
that direction has come forward very tardily, and only in
limited parcels, which have been taken by the dealers as they
arrived.

During several days last week the weather was wet and
unsettled, but it now exhibits an improved aspect ; with a
few trivial exceptions, however, the grain crops immediately
around us are secured, and although distantly, in late situa-
tions, much corn remains out, the rains, so far as they affect
this locality, have been favourable.
Stimulated by the advance in London, the trade for most
descriptions of Foreigh Wheat opened this morning with
higher expectations on the part of holders ; but the millerb
refusing to comply with the improved rates required, the
currency of this day week was in few instances exceeded,
and the transactions, consequently, were only upon a mode-
rate scale.—Good Irish new Wheats, on the contrary, in the
absence of an adequate supply, realised an amendment of 2d
to 3d per 701bs, and English new supported our quotations.
