STATE OT THE CORN TRADE FOR THE

wsx:e.

NARK LANs, Friday.-Notwithstanding that the
rarities markets have been steadily eupplied with
English wheat, the demand for all kinds has ruled
and previous rates bare been with difficulty sup-
ported. Foreign wheat has, from its abundance, moved
off heavily, and the currencies have had a drooping
tendency. The stock in warehouse in England is in-
crowing. There has been very little doing in barley,
and all but the4aestepsolinee here given way in price.
In malt, the Monsactions have ciontinued trifling, at late
Mee. There has bee* a fair inquiry for oats, if of
mound quality, at previous quotations. Inferior samples
have been offering on lower terms. Beans and peas
have been • slow Inquiry, and the value of American
flour has been with difficulty supported.
The latest advice@ from New York state that all kinds
of produce were dull and drooping, although the arrivals
from the interior were less extensive. The export
demand to England and Franee bad fallen off to some
extent, The 'French markets have been well supplied
with wheat, which has changed bands slowly, on former
terms. Spring core, however, has produced quite as
muith money at of late. On other parts of the Conti-
nent, the trade generally has ruled steady.
In Scotland, nearly all kinds of wheat have been held
on former terms; but the transactions in it have been
much restricted. Fine barley and oats have commanded
steady price.; but inferior samples, as well as beans,
peas, and flour, bare sold heavily.
The Irish markets have been fairly snpplied with
wheat, chiefly in middling condition. Defilers have
purchased with extreme caution, at about previous rates.
lodise corn has realised former currencies, with * fair
demand, but all othernreeles have continued heftily.

FRIDAT NIQEIT.-The supply of English wheat on
sale at Mitrk-lano, to-day, was very sinall. 'The trade,
however, for all descriptions, was in • sluggish state,
and late priest were barely maintained. In foreign
wheat, sales could only be effected by submitting to a
reduction in the quotations of Is to 28 per quarter,

barley wiss firm in value; but grinding and distilling
sorts were • doll inquiry. Oats, beans, and peas
moved off slowly, at Monday's currencies. In flour,
very little was doing; nevertheless, most kinds were
held at previous rates. This week's imports amount to
