CORFZ-EXCHANGE Very moderate supplies of English wheat have been on sale here this week ; yet the demand for all kinds has continued in a very inactive state, and prices have been with difficulty supported. Foreign wheat—the imports of which have been tolerably good—has moved off slowly, but we have no change to notice in the currencies. Floating cargoes have commanded very little attention. The show of barley has been far from extensive, but quite equal to the demand. In the quotations no change has taken place. All kinds of malt have ruled dull, and former terms have been with difficulty main tained. Oats have sold steadily at full prices; but beans, peas, and flour have commanded very little attention. The imports of the latter article have been comparatively small. ENGLISH—Wheat, Essex and Kent white, 74s to 87s; red, 70s to 82s ; Norfolk and Lincoln red, 70s to 80s.
