CORN : This morning's market was 'well attended by
local and neighbouring buyers, and we had, in addition,
several from a distance. The trade opened slack for
imported Wheats, but soon recovered its tone, and a good
consumptive business was done at prices fully equal to, and
in some cases rather exceeding, those of Tuesday last. Of
Farmers' Wheat very few samples appeared for sale to-day,
and though in slow request a slight increase in value was
partly realised. Flour, at the same time, was more steady
in value, with moderate sales. Barley rather more inquired
for, but unaltered in value.—With an improved demand for
Egyptian beans, somewhat more money is readily obtainable.
—Oats and Oatmeal are held more firmly. but the trauma-
tions are limited, and there is no improvement in prices.
For Indian Own there is a much better demand to-day; the
parcels of mixed, and the better descriptions of southern
white American, offered at 325, were cleared off, and holders
now refuse to sell at the same money. The weather con-
tinuing fine and the soil in excellent or7.er, spring culture
in this district of the country is progressing successfully;
reports from various sections of the United Kingdom on
this subject being equally favourable. Arrivals from the
4th to the 6th March, 18.56. inclusive.—From Ireland,

PROVISIONS: There is a fair retail demand for beef at
last week's prices, and holders, especially for the finer qua-
lities, show great firmness. In the absence of American
pork, the dealers substitute Irish, for which full prices are
much wanted,

nota ail come is
in at t once,

sup-
ported for a time. There is a steady consumptive demand
for lard, without further alteration in value, and the stock,
which is not heavy, is firmly held. For cheese there is a
moderately active demand, and the stock becomes reduced
daily. Without material alteration in price, there is rather
more doing in tallow. A further reduction has been sub.
mitted to for linseed cake. The downward movement in
the corn market continues, and the decline since our last is
6d, per 70 lb. on wheat, 28 per barrel on the lower grades
of flour, sad 61 to Is per qr on Indian corn. To day there
was a Patter feeling, and a moderate business transacted
without farther change in prices. -

InNDON

CORN : The wheat trade was not active this morning, at
the same time purchases of some qualities could hardly be
made so well as on Monday last. Norfolk flour was held for
Is advance. Barley was firm at late rates. Supplies of
oats moderate, and holders evince a little more confidence ;
and sales were made on quite as good terms as earlier in the
week. In beaus and peas there was no alteration.
SUGAR : The market opened this week with a good
demand, and prices 'hewed a slight advance ; but, since
Tuesday, there has been a want of buyers, and we do not
alter last week's prices. Refined, steady. Grocery lumps,
60s to 525.

Comot. We have had a dull market and prices have
scarcely been supported. Native Ceylon, 50s to 525.
TEA : Common Congou has sold rather more freely at
9d. this week, other sorts dull of sale at previous rates.
Rice: The market has been dull, and last week's de-
cline has been confirmed by the public sales.
Rust must be quoted Id. lower; pale Leewarda sold
at 2s.

SALTPETIIII has sold steadily at 6d advance ; refraction
3 to 6 sold at 345.

SPICES remain unaltered.
COTTON : A fair amount of business done at very full

prices.

IRON : Scotch pig is quoted 67s 6d, 68s.
FRUlT.—Currants : Fur low qualities rather easier rates
have been accepted, at which a good business has been done.
Raisins : Valencias in moderate demand Chesmcs :A.

at improved prices.
TALLOW: Prices are fully maintained, there being a fair
demand for consumption. Prices are quoted as follow :

METROPOLITAN CATTLE : The number of beasts is smaller
than of late, it is, however, quite sufficient for the demand.
Trade is slow, and Monday's prices are barely supported.
The supply of sheep is also shorter. They are readily dis-
posed of at fully Monday's quotations. Trade is brisk for
cales and lambs; choicest kinds are rather dearer. From
Germany and Holland there are seven beasts and 84 calves ;
Spain, 10 beasts ; .550 from Norfolk and Suffolk ; and 140
mulch cows from the home counties.
BOROUG Hor : Messrs. Pattenaen and Smith report that
fine coloured hops are in good demand, but for low sorts
there is not so much enquiry. Still prices are well man-
tained.
