COMMERCIAL AND MARKETS.

MARK-LANE.—(THIS DAY.)
The arrivals of wheat from Essex and Kent h►ve been
only moderate, but in fair condition. The attendance at
this morning's market was thin, and trade for most de-
scriptiors of produce was heavy.
English wheat waavery dull of sale, and although holders
were willing to submit to a reduction of 2s. per quarter,
very few transactions took place.
The importations of foreign wheat have been on a fair
average scale. The demand for all qualities was most in-
active, and sales could only be effected at a reduction in
price.
Malting barley was quite as dear as on Monday last, but
grinding and distilling qualities were difficult to dispose of.
We have no change to notice in the malt trade, but the
inquiry was far from active.
A steady business was passing in oats, at an improve-
ment of 3d. to fid. per quarter. The importation of foreign
oats has been rather extensive. _

Beans and peas were in more request, and values were
firmly supported.
Linseed sold slowly at late rates. Rapeseed was heavy.
Agricultural seeds moved off slowly about previous terms.
No change in cakes.
Town•numle flour was dull, but without altera-
tion in price. Country made and inferior foreign
had a drooping tendency in value. Trade in
all descriptions of floating produce has been in-
active, and prices have ruled rather easier. In arrived
cargoes of wheat, fine qualities were held for fully late
rates ; but inferior parcels could not be disposed of
at • decline of Is. to 2s. In cargoes on passage,
and for shipment, there has been very little
doing, and the quotations are nominallT unaltered. We
quote Ghirka, Nicolaieff, arrived, b9s. 6d. ; ditto,
Taganrog, 58a. to G2s. ; Berdianaki, 70s. to 70a. Gd. per
4921ba. ; Polish, Nicolaieff, 67e. •. Saida, Alexandria,
fits. 3d. ; Danubian, Salina, 60s. to 61s. per 4801bs. Cali-
fornian, on passage, has sold at 70s. per 5001 be. No tran-
sactions have been reported in maize, prices are conse-
quently unaltered. Barley has sold slowly at Gd. decline
in value, Danubian, arrived, having realised 335. 6d.; Syrian,
33a. 4jd. per 1001bs. There has bees a rather increased
demand for rye, and, the quantity on offer being compa-
ratively small, prices have slightly improved. Danubian,
on passage, may be quoted at 50s. 6d.; ditto, to be shipped,
51s. 6d. per 4801bs. Oats have met with little inquiry.
Beans are firmly held for late rates, but no arrivals have
been reported. Black Sea linseed, on passage, has sold at
655. 6d. Rapeseed is inactive.
