LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE,—Tats. DAY

(From Messrs. R. MAKIN S' SONS' Circular.)

The duty on Wheat is raised to 19s per qr., and on Flour
to lls *I per barrel, but remains unaltered as to other
foreign articles, and on all those of colonial -growth until
Friday next.

With all sorts of produce from Ireland, we continue to be
very scantily furnished, except Oatmeal, of which a few thou-
sand sacks have come to hand, partly by steamers, and are
literally without any fresh supplies coastwise, or from abroad,
no grain vessels having been reported thence during the past
three days, the direction of the wind, though light, being un-
favourable for arrivals.

During the interval from Tuesday's market to the close of
yesterday, Wheat and Flour continued to attract a moderate
share of attention, but as in some cases rather higher terms
were required, and a reluctance on the part of holders to press
sales was apparent, the transactions in these or any other
articles of the trade were not sufficiently important to pro-
mote any decided change in prices.

Although we had scarcely an average number of country
buyers at our Corn Exchange to-day, and not more than the
usual attendance of local millers, the Wheat trade remained
firm, and a moderately fair, but not a lively or extensive,
business was done at an amendment of Id. to 2d. per 701bs.
upon the generally improved rates of Tuesday ; the advance,
however, was more particularly applicable to good Irish new
Wheat, such being rather scarce, and to the low descriptions
of foreign, of which some parcels, with a few of the better
qualities, were taken as investments.

English, Irish, as well as States and Canadian Flour,
which are becoming less plentiful, moved off rather more
freely, each realising is per sack, and 6d to ]s per barrel
over the rates last noted.

Halting Barley, of which little remains unsold, would
command full as high terms, and the best grinding samples
were decidedly dearer. In Malt, Beans, and Pease, no
change was perceptible.
Oats, being in short supply, were in moderate request, at
the full rates of Tuesday ; whilst Oatmeal, upon a limited
demand, hardly sustained late prices.
