WEEK.

MARK LANZ, Friday.—Although very limited supplies
of English wheat have been on offer this week, the
demand for all kinds has been in a most depressed state,
at a decline in the quotations of from Is to fully 2s per
quarter. The transactions in foreign wheat have been
trifling, at fully 2.• per quarter advance, at which nu-
merous sellers are coming forward. Mile malting
barley bas commanded full price,; but grinding and
diatilling sorts have been offering on easier terms. In
the value of malt, very little change has taken place.
veers, however, have operated with extreme caution.

. es; but heated samples have ruled heavy and
dither cheaper. Both beans and peas have met a dull
inquiry, at fully Is per quarter less money. The dour
trade has been in a depressed state, at quite ls per
sack and barrel decline.
The wheat trade in France has been in every inaetive
state; nevertheless, scarcely any change has taken place
•in the quotations. Spring corn and flour have ruled
steady at barely previous rates. The outflow of bread-
stuffs from America has rather increased of late.

The Scotch markets have been scantily supplied with
wheat; nevertheless, all kinds have moved of heavily
on easier tarn s. The transactions in spring corn and
flour have continued limited.
In Ireland, great heaviness has prevailed in the sale
for most descriptions of produce, and prices have had •
downward tendency.

'proved demand for wheat, at Monday's declines in the
• quotations of 2s per quarter. In fortign wheat, a
limited business was tranAacted, at that day's fall in

The flour trade was very dull, yet no change took place
in the quotations.
Mr. E. Rainford reports the arrival of 54 vessels off
.00ast laden with grain, and a fair demand for floating
cargoes on easier terms.
FRIDAY Nioscr.-At Mark lane, to-day, both red
,and white qualities of English wheat changed hands

Mailing barley was in steady request, at full prices,
but grinding and distilling sorts were • slow sale, on
former terms. Oats, beans, and peas moved off slowly,

dull, and prises had • downward tendency. This
