CORN-EXCHANGE —Very moderate supplies of English
wheat have come tresh to hand since Monday. Although only a
limited business has been transacted in most kinds, really fire
qualities have, in some few instances, realised an advance of is

been extensive—has sold mostly in retail, at full quotations.

In floating cargoes very few sales have taken place. There has
been a fair sale for barley, the value of which has had an up-
ward tendency. Malt has ruled dull, but not cheaper. The oat
trade has been very firm, and good sound oats have produced

little has been doing; but flour has sold to a fair extent:, at fu?;
prices.
