LANCASHIRE.

The first foundation stone of the intended New Corn Exchange, in Brunswick-street, Liverpool, was laid on the 24th of April.

This buildin; is intended for a general resort of the corn merchants, on the plan of the Exchange in Mark-lane; and considering that Liverpool is the seat of the second corn market in the kingdom, it is somewhat surprising that an establishment of this kind has not been instituted before. It will be a very handsome structure, with a stone front to Brunswick-street, of plain Grecian architecture. Like the New Exchange Buildings, it is erected by subscription; a fund of 10,0001. having been raised by shares of 1001. each.
