CORN EXCHANGE.

Meet of the country markets held on Saturday were
fairly supplied with wheat. All kinds met a dull sale, at
from 28 to 4s per qr less money. Tho barley trade was
heavy, at drooping currencies. Malt, cats, beans, peas,
and flour sold slowly on lower terms.
The continental markets have ruled dull for wheat and
all other articles, on rather easier terms. The latest ad-
vices from New York state that a very moderate business
was doing for shipment to England.
Very moderate supplies of English grain wore received
up to our market last week. The imports from abroad
were 5,897 quarters of wheat, 5,946 oats, 1,454 beans,
436 taros, 8,568 linseed, 1,909 rapeseed, 29 mustard seed,
620 sundry seeds, 4,215 sacks and 351 barrels.
The supply of English wheat received fresh up to our
market to-day was limited ; nevertheless, the show of
Friday's unsold samples—amounting to 1,600 quarters—
was tolerably good. The number of land carriage parcels
was small. As the attendance of both town and country
millers was limited, the demand for all kinds of wheat
of home produce railed excessively heavy, and some time
elapsed ere a single parcel changed beetle. The quotations
were consequently very uncertaid, yet they may be called
3s to fully 4s per qr lower than on this day sennight.
Thesup ply of foreign wheat was but moderate ; yet all
kinds were very dull on sale, and the quotations may be
called 4e to 5s per quarter beneath the rates current on
this day

Barley--the show of which was by no means extensive—
moved off heavily, at from is to 2s per quarter less money.
Malt was offered at a considerable reduction in price
without finding buyers.

The oat trade was very dull, and the quotations gave
way is per quarter. The supply was but moderate.
We were fairly supplied with beans, the value of which
gave way is per quarter.
Peas changed hands at a reduction of is per quarter.
The flour trade was very dull, at a fall of from 3s to 5s
per 280 lbs.
