TO very limited extent--our neighboring miers
purchase very reluctantly but their stocks are con-
sdered very rlfng, and holders anticipating speedy
revival demand, evInce no disposition to submit to
any decline in the prices Of the finer descrpt IONS;

chased on rather lower terms. The quantity of Oats

but we note no variation in its value. Beans have
further advanced is. per qnarter. Flour has been in
limited demand, at full prices For Oatmeal there
has been more inquiry; q some parcels taken on spe-

speculation, but there is present little on the
market, this article would readily obtain our e-
treme quotations.

LIVERPOOL, FEB Since our last Circular of

our Cotton Market, but the quantity otterln~ has

prices have consequently further declined !. Some
OF the spiuEers who had turned out have resuin-

Flour made ut 3s per Dbl for Virginia and 35s
for New York and Philadelphia. chiefly at the latter
price, which cleared the market of all on sale at The

There have not since been any arrivals till 10 day
and little business has been done in the article but
prices are supported American Wheat in bond

ut the latter price. In Indian Corn but little doing
at quotations The last weekly average of
Wheat, 73s Sd per or. making the aggregate COS
B, which reduces the duty on Whcatto IS Sd per Or
and on Flour to 8s % per Dbl. and must soon be
considerably lower. About 1000 bbs Flour chiefly
New York, have just been sold at 35s per Dbl in
bond

from the best information can obtain TO the opin-
ion that either the master manufacturers or the
operatives must very shortly give way, and put ar
end TO this unpleasant suspension Of business
Wheat and Flour continues TO look up, and the
duties TO decline, which state Of things may be cal
