LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, —This DAY.

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

Upon all Foreign and Colonial Grain and Flour, duties
remain unchanged for the ensuing week.

We continue to be fairly supplied with Foreign Wheat
direct from the north and south of Europe, and a further
quantity of Pease from the Baltic Ports, with which excep-
tions and a moderate quantity of Irish Oatmeal, asrivals of
the past three days are scarcely worth notice.
The want of animation existing in the wheat trade on
Tuesday last, bas not been relieved by any improved symp-
toms intermediately up to this date : on the contrary, holders
of free Wheat have shown rather more inclination to sell,
and even a small decline in price, scarcely appeared likely
to produce much increase of demand.—ln bonded Wheat
and Flour also, the transactions during the same period were
limited in amount, but with little variation from the terms
previously noted. Oatmeal and Indian Corn, however,
were in lively request for Shipment to Ireland at advancing
rates ; whilst other articles remained stationary.

Upon a continuance of exceedingly fine weather, and a
very slender attendance of buyers this morning, all descrip-
tions of free 'Wheat were extremely difficult of sale, and de-
cidedly the turn cheaper.
The transactions in bonded Wheat, since our report of
Tuesday, include a parcel or two of Egyptian, at Cs, 3d. per
"Albs. on the spot, with two cargoes of French, afloat, at 405.,
and one of Polish Odessa, at 525. per quarter, cost, freight,
and insurance ; but nothing more has been done to-day.
In Flour, under lock, no sales have transpired, and all
kinds available for consumption have moved off very sparing-
ly, at late prices.
Barley has met an increased enquiry for grinding, and must
be noted 3d. per bushel dearer. Beans, likewise, are held
on rather higher terms. Malt and Pease remain steady.

Oats, in the absence of any material supply, have realised
ld. to 2d. per 451bs. over Tuesday's currency, at which, how-
ever, few sales have been effected.
The large operations in Oatmeal, amounting to 8,000 to
10,000 sacks within the last two days, at 303. to 31s. per
2401b5., have subsided this morning ; but Indian Corn, be-
ing still in request, commanded 45s to 46s per quarter of 480
lbs.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MMIKET, 3 P.m.

The attendance of purchasers in our Cotton market to-
day has again been good, and
fully 5,000 bales have been sold
at full market prices. weekly The sales amount to 34,450
bales, and the market closed with
very steady and firm

feeling,

We are glad to learn that there is no truth whatever in
report of the death of the Earl of Coventry, as stated in the
morning papers papers of Saturday. The noble earl, though iiid' i
posed, is in much the same state of health as he has been
for some time past. A Mr. Darby Coventry, a relation of
his lordship's, died a few days since ; and from this circum-
stance the mistake has possibly originated.
The Hereford Journal of Wednesday gives a long account
if a supposed murder in that county at a place called West-
hope Hill, H
_ope-under-Dinmore, and the victim was Mrs.
Lucy Parker, widow, about 45 years old, who kept a small
grocery shop, and was supposed to be worth considerable
money. The person suspected of the crime is Wm. Powell,
a carpenter, 26 years old, with whom the deceased (his aunt)
cohabited, and to whom, it is stated, she was to have been
married on Tuesday, her husband haying been dead about
three mouth,.
