CORN EXCHANGE—Although tho arrivals of English
wheat up to our market have been but moderate, the demand
for all kinds has ruled heavy, and prices have fallen from is to
2s per quarter. The imports of foreign wheat have been by no
means extensive, yet so little business has been transacted in
that article that the quotations must be considered almost
nominal. Floating cargoes have been almost neglected. There
has been very little inquiry for barley, at 2s per quarter less
money. Malt dull, and rather drooping. We have to report •
dull sale for oats, at. Gd to is leas money. Beans have fallen 2s,
