LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, FEB. 15.

Subsequently to Tuesday last, the arrivals of English and
Irish produce into this place have been generally unimpor-
tant ; but, having several foreign vessels in since Friday, we
have to note a liberal supply of Wheat and Flour from the
American States and the southern ports of Europe, which
will of course be withheld in bond for the present.
Our Corn Exchange this morning was moderately well
attended by local and country millers, who exercising more
than usual forbearance, Wheat of all Lieseriptions met a slow
limited demand • and holders being generally rather eager to
sell, a decline oild. to 2d. per 701bs. was conceded for good
runs of English and Foreign, and the damp ordinary sorts of
Irish very unsaleable. Bonded Wheat also being nearly
without inquiry no actual sales transpired to-day.
Barrel Flour, duty paid, was in moderate request at late
prices, and the sale of 700 brls. of States, -ander lock,- was
reported at 275. ; whilst in English or Irish very little busi-
ness was apparent.
Barley, Malt, Beans, and Peas continued to rule dull in
the extreme, and were nominally rather lower in value.
Oats, experiencing the same degree of languor as most
other articles of the trade, receded Id. per 451bs. ; and Oat-
meal, being nearly without inquiry, was offered with very
little effect, at an abatement of 6d. per 2401b5. from the
rates of this day se'nnight.

hoary burthen• on the producers, there would, of course, be

certain
protections tending particularly to relieve the pro-
ducers of the weight of these extreme burthens. But with
regard to the proposition now before the house, although it
might be applicable to some isolated state, how could it

bly be considered to be applicable to a irinciple of inde-
ence. Whenever England had fed herself without

upply, there had_been loud complaints of agricultu-

ral distress. But even if she had enough food within her
own resources, it would be a dangerous measure to reject all
foreign drafts if commerce were thereby checked. In his
opinion a nation should rely upon the natural operations of
commerce. The proposition now made maintained the
principle of a sliding scale, and also the principle of a
high duty. Now, the first objection he took to a sliding
scale was, that it always kept up a prohibitory duty.
What was the first item in this scale? A duty of 20s. was
to be imposed when the price was under 525. The latest
documents they had on the subject were those the consuls
returned. They showed that the prices at Dantzic and Stettin

were about 40s. to 435., the freight about 3s. Another ac-
count stated it at 40s. to 445., the freight about 3s. Another

Lord JOHN RUSSELL said he felt he should be very ill

cause the cessation of agitation. Although it might be wise
to concede, yet when concession was made it should be made

ALARMING ACCIDENT,

On Friday last, during the sitting of the Rev. Thos. Airey
and the Rev. John Sedgwick, magistrates for Sedberg, in the
West Riding of the county of York, and on hearing a case of
assault closely bordering on rape, committed on a young fe-
male of the name of Blades, by five young men, the middle
portion of the floor of the office gave way, precipitating 150
individuals to a depth of 20 feet. It appears that this brutal
case of assault had created the most lively disgust and indig-
nation in the neighbourhood. and had broughtlogether a large
concourse of hearers to listen to the results of the investiga-
tion. The office during the time was crowded to excess.

INN. TO BE LET AT GLASGOW,

THE Elegant Spacious, and well-frequented ARGYLL
INN and BRITISH HOTEL, will be LET for such a
Term of Years, after Whitsunday next, as may be agreed on.
The advantages which this Hotel possesses from its very
central situation in the principal thoroughfare of the City ;
its proximity to the Terminus of the Ayrshire and Greenock
Railway, to the Steam Packet Quay ; and being on the line
between these places and the. Terminus of the Edinburgh
Railway, as well as all the Coaches that start from the City,
render it a most eligible Residence for Commercial Travellers;
and it has long enjoyed a decided preference by Gentlemen
connected with the Highlands and Western parts of Scot-
land. To an active and enterprising Tenant there is every
prospect of a large additional business from the improvements
going on in the Western part of the city, and every en-
couragement will be given to such a person.
Offers will be received, and every information afforded, by
Mr. ROBERT RODGER, No. 182, Buchanan-street, Glasgow.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, FEB. 15.
Subsequently to Tuesday last, the arrivals of English and
Irish produce into this place have been generally unimpor-
tant ; but, having several foreign vessels in since Friday, we
have to note a liberal supply of Wheat and Flour from the
American States and the southern ports of Europe, which
will of course be withheld in bond for the present.
Our Corn Exchange this morning was moderately well
attended by local and country millers, who exercising more
than usual forbearance, Wheat of all descriptions met a slow
limited demand; and holders being generally rather eager to
sell, a decline of ld. to 2d. per 701bs. was conceded for good
runs of English and Foreign, and the damp ordinary sorts of
Irish very unsaleable. Bonded Wheat also being nearly
without inquiry no actual sales transpired to-day.
Barrel Flour, duty paid, was in moderate request at late
prices, and the sale of 700 brls. of States, under lock, was
reported at 275. ; whilst in English or Irish very little busi-
ness was apparent.
Barley, Malt, Beans, and Peas continued to rule dull in
the extreme, and were nominally rather lower in value.
Oats, experiencing the same degree of languor as most
other articles of the trade, receded Id. per 451bs. ; and Oat-
meal, being nearly without inquiry, was offered with very
little effect, at an abatement of lid. per 2401b5. from the
rates of this day se'nnigbt.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE,—THis DAy

(From Maws. R. MAKIN & SONS' Circular.)

Upon Foreign Barley
Rye to 12s. 6d.. cn Pease

duty is raised to 19s. 101, or

to h 4.. 3d. per quarter, remaining

in all other respects precisely the same as la 4 week.
Except a few Oats and a moderate quantity of Oatni.al,
we have had scarcely anything into this port from Ireland
since Tuesday, and none worth naming Coastwise. During
the same period the arrivals of Foreign Grain have been
wholly confined to 12,410 qrs. of Wheat from the south of
Europe, having no other produce whatever fresh in from
abroad.

Since our first report this week, and up to this date

business in any free article of the trade appeared to be lite-
rally suspended ; and the only sale reported in bond, during
that time, included merely about 1900 qrs. of Egyptian
Beans, at 17s. per qr.

At this day's market, likewise, unaccountable dulness per-
vaded every branch of the corn trade, and rendered priees
of all sorts of grain scarcely more than nominal.—Of Wheat,
however, the few retail sales effected were at a decline of 2d
to 3d per 701b5., and Oats might have been purchased fund
per 451bs below the rates last noted.

Oatmeal, in the absence of country buyers, receded 6d.
per 2401b5. Flour was taken off very sparingly, and although
prime brands, duty paid, are not plentiful, there was a dis-
position to sell on rather lower terms.
