COMMERCIAL AND MARKETS.

MARK-LANE.—(THIS DAY.)
The attendance at this morning's market was extremely
thin, and trade in all descriptions of produce ruled very
dull.

The supply of English wheat on offer waa limited, and
the quality of the samples inferior. For both red and white
parcels there was very little inquiry, and prime were
altogether nominal.
There was a good show of foreign wheat, but the de-
mand was inactive, on previous terms.
Fine malting barley sold steadily, at late rates, but other
descriptions were very dull.
The malt trade war heavy, at drooping currencies. The
quantity on sale was extensive.
The importations of oats have been very large, but the
quality of the samples was generally inferior. Good sound
corn maintained previous terms, but ill-oonditioned lots
could be purchased on lower terms.
Rye was very inactive, at nominally late rates.
Maize, being scarce, was held for folly previous terms.
Beans were a slow sale, but no quotable change took
place in values._ _ _

Peas were dull, and rather cheaper.
In flour there was very little passing ; millers made no
change in the value of town made, and country marks
were nominally unaltered.
Linseed and rapeseed, owing to the late large arrivals,
sold on easier terms. Clover seeds were dull. In other
agricultural seeds there was very little doing.
There has been vey little animation in the floating
grain cargo trade, and pi:ces for most descriptions of pro-
duce have had a drooping tendency. Fine cargoes of
wheat, being scarce, have realised fully late rates, but
inferior qualities were very difficult to dispose of
exoept at a decline in the quotations. For cargoes
on passage and for shipment there has been very
little inquiry. We quote Ghirka„ arrived, 58a.
