MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE, MONDAY, Attu. 21.
The supply of grain in gineral during last week was very short ;
but this morning we had soma arrivals from Essex, Kent. and Suf-
folk, principally Wheat. The best samples of old as well as new
Wheat sold readily this morning on terms fully equ.l to list Mon.
day, and there was sonic inquiry for the intetior descriptions of
foreign at low prices. We hail not much demand for Barley, yet
we most note an advance of full 2a. per quarter on the late rates.
Considerably higher prices were asked fur Oats and although the
sales were entirely confined to buyers in actual want, yet such were
compelled to submit to an advance of full 2x. per quarter, compared
with the currency of lavt Monday. Beans were scarce, and ls, to 2%.
per quarter dearer than this day se`nnight ; but Pease were heavy
sate, and barely supported last week's prices. The aggregate of the
average' price of all grain for the six weeks ending the 1211 i inst.
being under those at which the importation of foreign grain is al-
lowed, the ports will continue closed for the next three month..

SMITHFIELD. MOIFDAY. Aue. 21.
This morning's supply of Beasts exhibited increased numbers
and superior quality to what have been sent us of late ; the heat of
the weather alan haviog some etlkt on sales, the best Beef here has
been sold this day at 4.5. kohl. per stone, with a tolerable demand ;
hut the lower kinds hang heavy on hand. The continued dry
weather keeping away all buyers for the pastures, and the quality
of the Sheep sent us being but indifferent, we have a fiat trade at
21 per stone lower. Lamb, also, has sustained a sim'lar reduc-
tion. Calves are very plentiful. and very choice ones only realize
ss. 4d.; useful Veal is to be bought 4d. below that quotation. Pork
continues at 45.8(1. for the best-sized pigs.
