LONDON CORN EXCHANGE, JULY 11

The market was well supplied throughout the whole of last week
with Grain of all descriptions, particularly of Foreign Wheat and
Oats, we had also a good supply of the latter description of Corn
from Ireland, The demand for fine qualities of English Wheat was
tolerably brisk at prices rather above the quotations of last Mon-
day; still, however, the disposition was to purchase only for im-
mediate wants, speculators remaining totally inactive. To this
morning's market we reeeived a large supply of Wheat from both
Essex and Kent, added to which, the supply of Foreign last week
being so abundant, the trade has declined from 2s to 3s per quarter,
and at this reduction the sales were by no means brisk. In Barley
we notice no alteration, good qualities meet a ready sale, but in-
ferior descriptions move off but slowly. Oats are in demand at last
week's prices. Beans are more inquired after, but prices have
undergone no alteration. White and Hog Peas are in limited de.
mand at the quotations of this day week. New Rape and New
Carraway Seeds appeared at market, and realized, the former .i 438
per last, and the latter 40s to 45s per cwt. Other descriptions of
seeds are more inquired after, and continue to realise full prices.

July 13

The business is firm this morning at the prices of Monday, but
a fall of 2s per quarter then took place in Wheat, The trade is
this morning almost exclusively in Wheat and Oats, scarcely any
English article being for sale. The duty on Wheat is sd per quarter,
at which rate it is convenient to liberate considerable quantities
from bond.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, JULY 12

We continue pretty well supplied with Foreign Wheat, the
imports of the week amounting to 14,270 qrs., about one-
half from the Baltic, and the remainder from France and the
Mediterranean. There is also a good arrival of Flour from
Canada and the United States, but the quantity of all articles
both coastwise and from Ireland, as usual at this season, is
light, and is in a great degree counterbalanced by the exports
in those directions. Within the week ending Thursday last,
duties were paid on 15,813 qrs. Foreign, 200 qrs. Canadian
Wheat; 5,143 barrels Foreign, 8,839 barrels Colonial Flour.

Yesterday, a great quantity of rain having fallen, specula-
tive inquiries were a;ain excited, about 3000 barrels Flour,
in bond, changing hands at 29s 6d to 30s, and one or two
parcels of Wheat, under lock, as well as a cargo of Baltic
floating, at fully previous rates; but although we had a
good attendance of the town trade at this day's market,
and several country buyers from a distance, the depres-
sion in London, and the improved appearance of the
weather, checked the disposition to purchase freely,
at the prices of this day week we had a tolerably fair, but by
no means extensive demand for Wheats; the sales generally
being effected for delivery after Friday next, at the antici-
pated reduction of duty. _

Good fresh Flour was in fair request, and 6d to is per bar-
rel dearer, but no further bonded transactions, either in this
article or in Wheat, as reported to-day.
Malt dull, and, to effect sales, rather cheaper. We repeat
our last quotations for Oats and Oatmeal, for which there
was a moderate demand for consumption.
In other articles no variation.
