METROPOLITAN MARKETS-FRIDAY.

Cosy EXCHANOE.—The arrivals of Eugl;sh wheat fresh up to
our market to-day, coastwise and by land carriage, were
very limited, and the show of samples was consequently small.
In the demand, however, no improvement took place, yet Sion•
day's prices were supported. Thither over 12,0t;0 qrs. of foreign
wheat have come fresh to hand this week. (.IJo l and tine
qualities realised full quotations, but all other kinds were quite
neglected. Floating eargaes of graM were dull. Flno barley sold
steadily, other kinds slowly, on former terms. Malt changed
hands to a moderato extent, at full prices. Oats were the tura
dearer; but beans, peas. and flour met a very slow inquiry, at
Monday's quotations.
CATTLE. MARKET.—Although only a moderate supply of beasts
was on sale in to day's market, the demand fur all breeds
ruled inactive, at Monday's currency. We were but scantily
supplied with sheep, which move I off slowly, at unaltered
quotations. The extreme value of the beat old Downs was Os 6.1
per 8 lbs. Prime small calves ware very scarce, and 6d per
ltm. dearer. Inferior veal met, a slow inquiry. Pigs and
milch cow+ sold heavily, at barely stationary prices.
BOROUGH HOP MARKET,-011E market is fairly supplied with
nearly all kinds of hops. Good and tine qualities are firm, and
quite as dear as last week. In other kinds very little is doh; g.
New Mid and East Kent pockets, 82s to 120 s; Weald of Kent
ditto, Sea to eos; Sussex ditto, fils to 73s per cwt.
