ptelninaL The show of samples of foreign wheat on
the stands was large. Good and prime qualities were
In moderate request, at full prices ; but inferior produce
met a dull inquiry on former terms. In floating
cargoes of grain a limited business was transacted, at
late rates. The trade for barley was in a sluggish state,
at fully the late decline in the quotations. Malt
nhanged hands to a moderate extent, at full prices.
Oats—the supply of which was very moderate—ruled
heavy, at barely late rates. Beans and peas were dull,

the past two days, with a fair business doing in wheat
and flour. Indian ;torn has also been in demand at
295. 6d. per 4801 b. for mixed, with few sellers at the
price. The weather has been unsettled and showery.
At this day's market there was a fair attendance of the
town and country trade, and wheat and flour met with
• moderate demand for consumption at Tuesday's rates,
and in some cases a shade more.

Wausau), Friday.—Wheat trade dull; fresh, old,
and finest new nearly maintain their value ; other
sorts unsaleable, although offered at very low prices.
Barley dull, and cheaper. Other articles) unaltered.

CATTLE mAiarrs.

IldrriloPoirrau Calmar Manner, Thnrsday.-The
supply of beasts here to•day was chiefly composed of
stock left over from Monday. On the whole the
derohnd for most breeds ruled steady, at full rises-the
beat Scots having, in some instances, realised 4s. Bd.
'per Blls. Sheep-the show of which was only moderate
-were in fair request, at extreme quotations. The
best Downs were worth quite ss. 4d. per 81bs., and a
few halt‘breds realised that figure. There was a fair
tnquiry for calves, at full currencies-viz., from 4s. to
58. per 81bs. Pigs quite as dear as on Monday. Miloh
tows very inactive.

heavy, without alteration in prices. Calves a moderate
supply; a fair demand at late quotations. A mode-
