If I have a name beyond that of many other writers, a proportionate weight of duty rests upon me; and that duty, as far as I have power, I will perform. My appeal is to all "sensible and just Englishmen ;" and, if they will hear me, which I think they will, I have not the smallest doubt of success; at any rate, I shall have performed my duty upon this great occasion, and that will be to me a sufficient reward.N.

The Scotch Markets are the Returns of the Week before... *Dalkeith and Haddington are given by the boll.-The Scotch boll for Wheat, Rye, Pease, and Beans, is three per cent, more than 4 bushels. The boll af Barley and Oats, is about 6 bushels Winchester, or as 6 to 8 compared with the English quarter. Liverpool, Nov. 30.-Throughout the past weck sales of Wheat were but partial and sparingly effected, and one superior parcel only brought an advance of 2d. per bushel; but an increase of 3d. per bushel was generally obtained upon Oats. The market of this day was very indifferently attended by purchasers, and in consequence the sales of any article of the trade were extremely limited. Oats however maintained the improvement previously noted; but Wheat rather nominally so upon the advance quoted on last Tuesday's prices. Grinding Barley was 6d. per bushel dearer, as were Beans 2s. per quarter. Imported into Liverpool, from the 23d to the 29th of November 1824, inclusive:-Wheat, 1,980; Barley, 2,235; Oats, 6,123; Malt, 50; and Beans, 471 quarters. Flour, 3,059 sacks, of 280 lbs. Oatmeal, 1,989 packs, per 240 lbs. Norwich, Dec. 4.-The supply of samples was great to-day, but there was a lively demand for good things; Wheat fetched from 63s, to 70s.; Barley, 33s. to 49s.; Oats, 26s. to S2s. per quarter Beans and Peas continued as last quoted. Bristol, Dec. 4.-The prices of Corn, &c. here, continues about the same, but the sales effected are not so numerous as last week.-Best Wheat, from 8s. 9d. to 9s.; new ditto, 6s. 6d. to 7s. 9d.; inferior ditto, 5s. 6d. to s. 3d.; Barley, 2s. 9d. to 6s. ; Beans, 4s. 3d. to 7s. ; Oats, 2s. 3d. to 3s. 3d.; and Malt, 5s. 9d. to 8s. per bushel, Flour, Seconds, S2s. to 55s. per bag.

Wisbech, Dec. 4.-The state of our Corn market was such as not to admit of any visible alteration from the sale and prices last week. Wakefield, Dec. 8.--The quantity of New Wheat offering is very small; there has been a free sale for the best descriptions, at a trifling improvement in price; but no alteration can be noted in the value of inferior sorts or old. The arrival of Barley is very large, and which has tended to depress the trade: Maltsters seem inclined to wait in expectation of lower prices, and scarcely a sale could be made to-day. There is no alteration in the value of Oats or Shelling. Malt is rather dearer, and Beans fully maintain last week's rates.-Wheat, old, 60s. to 70s.; new, 66s. to 74s. per 60 lbs.; Barley, old, 38s. to 40s.; new, 43s. to 46s. per qr.; Beans, new, 48s. to 50s.; old, 52s. per 63 lbs.: Oats, 26s. to 28s. per qr.; Mealing Oats, 14d. to 15d. per stone; Shelling, new, 35s. to 36s.; Malt, 42s. to 46s.; and Flour, 52s. to 56s. per load.

Malton, Dec. 4.-Very slight alteration took place in the prices of Grain this week.-Wheat, 74s. to 78s. per quarter, five stone per bushel; Barley, 40s. to 44s, per quarter; Oats, 13d. to 13 d. per stone. |
