CORN.—MARK-LANE.—The supplies of all aorta
of British grain during the past weekawere moderate, and
the show of samples of Wheat from the near counties
was small thin morning, nevertheless, the trade ruled
dull, at a decline of Is. to 2s. per quarter. Foreign
Wheat was in only limited request at a reduction
of Is. per
.quarter upon the quotations of Monday last.
Barley was in short supply, and quite as deer. The receipts
of oats during the week having been scanty, factors were
enabled to obtain 611. to Is. per qr. more money. Beans,
both English and Foreign, were rather easier to purchase,
whilst Peas, being scarce, were Is. per quarter dearer.

68s. ; red. 475. to 50s. per qr.
COLCHESTER, May 6.-Farmers ere completing their
seeding op( rations. In the young Wheats there is na defi-
ciency of plant. Their appearance this fine weather
improves, but they have not branched off so much
as usual, and, on the whole, are not so promising
as in many former seasons at this particular period.
The land sown with Barley early in April has been
rendered too solid by the rain that fell during that
month; and circumstances altogether up to this time
are against the productiveness of the Barley and Oat Crops.
Peas and Beane generally are out of the ground, and are
with few exceptions looking well. All kinds of Grasses are
abundant. Farmers hold well of the lest Wheat crop, and,
if the pries keeps low, will probibly in great part continue
to bold up to, or over next harvest. Burley has gone into
consumption, and Beans are reduced to an extremely narrow
compass. Clover Seeds have in supply greatly exceeded the
demand. Many considerable holders of old seeds have not
been able to dispose of their stocks, and such are again held
over. Inactivity. has characterised all the inarke• a of th is dist; ict
fer some time time past, andall that is now priming relates to
home consumption. At this day's market there is a fair
supply of Wheat, hut scarcely any other article in offer. The
present shipping prices are: Wheat, white, 611 h. to 621 h., 525.
to 635. ; red, 49.. to 60s. Beans, Mazagan, 325.; tick, 341.

GUILDFORD, May 6.-There was a fair quantity of Wheat
kr sale at our market to-day, though the supply fr.ah in
was very trifling. The trade was extremely dull, and, even
at an abatement of 15. per qr., the millers refused to pur-
chase, except to a very limited extent. Wheat, 41s. to 68s. ;
IBarley, 30s. to 345. ; Oats, 20s. to 235.; Beans, 385. to 425.
KINGSTON, May 6.-Good and fair Wheats were offered
at 25., and some inferior at 3s. per qr. less money. Barley
in moderate supply, and bought sparingly, at a reduction of
from Is. to 2s. Oats cannot be quoted lower. In Beans and
Peas but very little doing.
bleeeneseee, May 6.-Fine weather has bad its usual
depressing influence during the week, upon this and the
neighbouring market, of Liverpool and Wakefield ; and the
business done has been on a very limited scale. At our
Corn Exchange this morning, the transactions are confined
to retail Pales for the supply of present wants. We reduce
our quotations for Wheat 3d. per bushel, Fleur Is. per sack,
and Indian Corn Is. per qr. For other article' former rates
are maintained pretty steadily. Present prices : Wheat, per
bush. of 701 be., English, white, 75.6.1. to Bs. ; red, 7s. to 7s. 6d.

MARLBOROUGH, May 6.-There were trifling supplies of
Wheat. In the former, trade was done at a reduction of
from 10. to 2s. per qr. There was a decline of ls. per qr. in
Barley. Beans were reduced to 435., top price. Peas under-
went a similar change of 2s. pet qr. Oats, the same as last
quotations.
NEWACASTLE•ON-TTNE, May 6.-The weather Sint* this
day se'nnight has been of a remarkably favourable charac-
ter, and, as a necessary consequence, our reports from the
country speak rather more cheeringly of the appearance of
Wheat on the cold soils ; and a continuance of such weather
for a few days longer would tend to dissipate the alarm that
previously existed with reference to the crops. Although
the arrivals of Wheat and Flour during the present week
exhibit a considerable falling off, the trade, nevertheless, has
ruled extremely quiet since this day se'nnight, and the bu-
siness passing in either article has been limited, at rather
easier rates ; the fineness of the weather, doubtless, contri-
buting to the dulness. Malting Barley, on aceount of its
comparative scarcity, has sold. at an improvement of
Is. per quarter • whilst Malt, at the same time, has
met with but little attention, other grain remaining without
any material change. At our market this morning we had
a moderate show of Wheat from the growers, for which a
slow sale was experienced at the rates of this day ae'nnight.
In south country and foreign few transactions occurred, and
only where vessels required clearing was a slight concession
made to our millers. For Flour there was less inquiry, god
we reduce our quotations upon households and whites le.
per sack, ordinary qualities being quite neglected. In Rye
so little stirring that our currency may be considered no-
minal. Malting Barley must be agate quoted Is. per
quarter dearer, very choice chevalier having commanded
365., and average runs 341: per quarter teepee ively
As however,tre malting season is drawing fast to a close, we
much doubt whether those rates would be sustained in tho
event of any quantity coming to hand. Malt fully as dear,
and inquired for. For Beans and Peas rather more enquiry,
but prices cannot be called any higher. With Oats we were
moderately supplied, but, the demand being trifling, salmi
could only be promoted by submitting to a small reduction.
The duty on Oats is 6d. higher ; on other articles there is no
change. Arrivals this week: Wheat, coastwise, 782; foreign,
1,160. Rye, coastwise, 20. Barley,
1,117. Malt, coastwise, 130. Oats, coastwise, 150; foreign:
