Ann Areor, Oct. 23, 1846. The Wheat market during the week has had a downwnrd tendency, and the highest price we hear of to-day is 62 è cents. Thia diminution of price is attributed to the rise in freights, the scarcity of funds, and the suspense occasioned by the non-arrival of the British steamer. We hear from different places in this county that the potatoe erop is seriously affected by the rot. During two weeks in September, Corn ad vaneed in New York from 60 to 80 cents a bushei, being 00 per cent. This would raise the value of the whole erop in the United States 150 millions of dollars. During the week ending September 3d, there arrived at Liverpool, England, the following produce frem the United States, viz: 26,778 barrels of flour, 37,199 bushels of wheat, 21,307 bushels of corn, 2,022 boxes cheese, 1,141 barrels of lard, besides butter, hams, pork, and docks in any quantity. All this in the space of seven days.
