THE MARKETS.

MARK-LANE.—MONDAY.
At Mark-lane business was not extensive, the attendance
being only moderate. Export produce was in short supply.
Foreign grain was not so freely offered. The demand for
English wheat was quieter than on Friday, but prices were
about is. higher on the week. Foreign wheat was about
per quarter dearer than on Monday last, but not so strong as
Friday. The flour market was quiet but steady. In barley
not much was doing, and prices remained about. The same.
Malt was qniet, but without change. For oats there was
rather less demand, and the tone was not so strong as it was.
Maize was in fair request, and was quite as dear. For beaus
and peas the market was quiet, on former terms.
•
METROPOLITAN CATTLE 31ARKET.—MoNner.
The cattle trade was quiet in tone and without feature.
The receipts of beasts from our own grazing districts were
not large, but as the demand lacked strength the total
number offering was quite sufficient to supply wants. Through-
out the trade was very slow, and only the best breeds main-
tained previous values. The extreme quotation for the best
Scots and crosses may be written 58,10 d. to Gs. per 81b.,
but less money than this was taken for very fair stock.
From the Midland and home counties we received about
1,250, from Norfolk and Suffolk about 250, and from Scot-
land seven head. The foreign side of the market WAS well
supplied with beasts. There were 500 Canadian, 350 Danish,
and some Spanish and Swedish. The demand was inactive,
on former terms. The sheep pens were only moderately well
filled. A quiet trade prevailed for them, and quotations
ruled about the same as last week. The best Downs
and balf-breds made 7s. to 7s. 2d. per 81b. Lambs sold
at Os. 6d. to 7s. Od. per Sib. Calves and pigs were
quict and without change. At Deptford there were about
1,500 beasts and 7,000 sheep and lambs. Inferior beasts,
48 64.1. to Is.; second quality, 58. to ss. Gd. ; prime large
oxen, ss. Bd. to Is. 1041. ; prime Scots, ss. 10d. to Os. ; inferior
sheep, 48. Od. to Is.; second quality, Is. to Os.; prime coarse

Si. 2d.; lambs, Os. Csl. to 7s. 6d. per 81b. sinking the offal.

METROPOLIT±N MEAT MARKET.-MONDAY.
About an average supply of meat was on sale here to-day,
and the demand ruled quiet at the following prices :-In-
ferior beef, 2s. Bd. to 3s. 4d. ; middling ditto, 4s. to 4s. 64.;
prime large ditto, 4s. Bd. to ss. ; prime sma 1 ditto. ss. to
ss. 4dc.'; veal, ss. to ss. 44. ' • inferior mutton, 3s. to 45..' • mid-
dling ditto, 4s. Sd. to ss. 4d. ; prime ditto, bs. 6d. to 65.;
large pork, 3s. 10d. to 4s. 44. ; small ditto, 4s. Bd. to Ss. ;
lamb, Gs. to 7s. peralb. by the carcase.
POTATO.
Moderate supplies of potatoes have been on sale to-day,
and the trade has ruled dull, at the subjoined currency:-
English kidneys, 7s. to Bs. ; English round, 6s. to 7s. 6d.;
Lisbon, new, 75.; Jersey round, 6s. 6d. to 7s ; Jersey kid-
neys, 7s. to Bs. • Cherbourg, round, 6s. 64.; Cherbourg kid-
neys, 95.; and French round, 6s. per cwt.
HOP.
Owing to the continuance of unsettled weather, the
accounts from the plantations are less satisfactory. The
vine has, indeed, grown freely, but It has a less healthy ap-
pearance, bright hot weather being necessary to develop
and mature the plant. There will yet be a large crop if the
weather should be propitious. The imports of hops last
month were 1,774 cwt., against 4,616 cwt., and the exports
1,212 cwt., against 42 cwt. last year. The trade during the
week has not presented any important feature, but there
has been some tendency to hold good sampl6s.
