STATE OF THE CORN TRADE FOR THE
WEEK.

MAIM Lag", Friday Evening.—Noet of the leading
markets held this week have been but moderately
supplied with horse-grown wheat, in which a fair
average business hes been transseted, at a further
advance in quotations of from Is to 2,1 per quarter, and
at which good shorans*a have been effected. Foreign
wheat, the arrivals of which hate not increased, has moved
off deathly, and prWes have had an upward tendency. No
quotable change hes taken place in the value of barley,
btlt the inquiry of most kinds has become rather more
extensive. The malt trade has continued inactive, at
late currencies. Oats have moved off steadily, at very
frill prices, whilst both beans and peas have realised
Is advance. Flour has sold readily on rather higher
term,.

kdvices from France elate that wheat and dour have
comma/Wed rather more attention, at very full prices.
On other ports of the Continent, the grain trade
generally il 30 a healthy state. In America, no change
of importance has taken place in the value of produce.
The fineness of the weather has enabled our farmers
to progress somewhat rapidly with outdoor labours.
Already a good portion of the land has been sown with
wheat.

In Scotland, there has been a fair demand for wheat,
on higher terms, and most of the markets have been
somewhat scantily supplied. Barley and all other
articles have come slowly to hand, and the sale for
them Las ruled steady, at very full prices.
The Irish markets have exhibited only moderate
supplies of wheat, chiefly in poor condition.
Most descriptions have risen is to 2s per quarter.
Barley and all other articles have been held for more
money. The espirts to England have continued
limited.

New Yond, Oct. 11.—The market for State and
Western dour remained buoyant on Saturday, when
the demand was active, and the transactions heavy, at
a slight advance upon our previous quotations. The
week opened under lees favourable circumstances,
however, and, with a considerable abatement in If..
export demand, priees receded be to 100 per bbl, closing
With still a downward tendency. The sales for the
three days comprise 55.000 bide, including 12,500 jester.
day. Canada dour was also in better request, and
better prices were realised until yesterday, when the
market ruled doll at our previous quotations. Southern
flour is steady, with • fair demand at previous
quotations; the sake for the three days comprise
5,060 bails. . . _ _ _

The demand for wheat for export continued very
active on Saturday and Monday, when full prices were
realised, and the transactions were heavy. The
European advice, were of an adverse tonour, and
exerted an unfavourable influence on 'Change, causing
• decline of about 2e per bushel.
At Alexandria, the advance in the value of cereals,
caused by the inundations of the Nile, had been fully
supported to the 11th MA.
With regard to the floating trade, Mr E. Rainford
observes that a moderate business have been transacted
since Friday last, with • alight downward tendency in
the value of main. The arrivals off coast have
amounted to 43 cargoes, of which 11 were wheat, 19
main, and 13 mieceflaneons.
FRIDAY Ninny.— The supply of wheat at Mark lane,
to-day, was somewhat on the increase • and the demand,
both for red and white qualities, ruled lass active, at
barely the late 'deluxe in the quotations, Foreign
wheat was in slow request, yet no change took place in
Its value. The show of barley was small, and all kinds
sold somewhat freely, at extreme rates. Oats were a
slow inquiry; nevertheless, prices were stipportel.
Beans and peas were in limited supply, and Monday s
advance in their value was fully maintained; The
flour trade was steady, on former terms. This week's
Imports amount to 18,430 quarters of wheat, 3,250
barley, 13,590 oats, 40 sacks and 10,750 barrels of
flour. Linseed and rapeseed were fully as dsar, but
in other seed no quotable change.
