MARKET NEWS.—(This Day).

CORN EXC,IIANGE.

The supplies of wheat in the leading country markets
held on Saturday were but moderate, yet the trade ruled
inacttve, and prices were rather lower. Fine barley was
scarce, and in request, at full quotations. Most other
kinds of produce were a slow sale, Cu former terms.
Tho bu,iness doing in grain in most of the near conti-
nental ports continues very limited. Prices, however,
rule high. The latest advices from America state that
large quantities of grain and flour continue to be pur-
chased for shipment to England and France.
Very moderato supplies of English grain were received
up to our market last week. The imports from abroad
were 4,373 quarters of wheat, 33 barley, 24,589 oats, 136
beans, 2,775 peas, 89 tares, 8,184 linseed, 8,601 rapeseed,
147 mustard seed, 223 sundry seeds, and 3,272 sacks of
flour.
Fresh up to-day the arrivals of English wheat were very
limited, but in fair condition. As there were more coun-
try buyers in attendance than of late, there was an im-
proved demand for all kinds, at an advance in the quota-
tions obtained on Monday last of 2s. per quarter. The
quantity of wheat received from Estiex was smaller than
for many previous weeks.
With f 'reign wheat, fresh as well as ex granary, we
were but moderately supplied. The active advices from
America, and the limited nature of our imports last week,
caused holders to be very firm. However, the business
done was almost wholly confined to immediate wants, yet
in some instances the finest red qualities were ls. per quar-
ter dearer than on this day so'nnight.
Floating cargoes generally held for more money.
Fine malting barley realised la per quarter advance.
Grinding and distilling sorts were steady, at full quota-
tions.
There was a moderate sale for malt, at full prices.
Old oats sold to a fair extent, at fully late rates. New
qualities—the supply of which was good—were dull, and
6d per quarter cheaper.
Beans and peas sold steadily, at full prices.
The flour trade was firm, but we have no material change
to notice in the quotations.

The arrivals of stock from Ireland last week, direct by
sea, were. 100 beasts. The Irish stock continues to arrive
in excellent condition, and perfectly free from disease ;
but buyers generally state that both the beasts and sheep,
though heavy in appearance, come very light to the scale.
There was about an average supply of foreign stock in
to-day's market. The fresh arrivals from Ireland, via
Liverpool, amounted to 330 beasts and 1,300 sheep, the
whole in excellent condition. _ _ .

From our own grazing districts the receipts of boasts put
up this morning were moderate, but their general quality
was very inferior. Nearly all breeds were in good request,
and prices were 2d. per Blbs higher than on Monday last.
The primest beasts sold readily at from 5s to 5s 2d per 81ba ;
very prime breeds were worth 2d more.
The arrivals of boasts from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire,
and Northamptonshire amounted to 2,000 short horns,
and from other parts of England 400 of various breeds.
We had no fresh arrivals from Scotland.
For the time of year the show of sheep was small, and
is poor condition. The mutton trade was decidedly active,
and the quotations ruled 2d per 81bs higher than on this
day se'nnight. The best Downs were worth 5s 2d per Sibs.
We were but moderately supplied with calves, and the
veal trade was brisk, at 2d per Blbs above the prices paid
on Monday last. The best veal realised 5s 2d per 81bs.
The supply of pigs was moderate, and the pork trade
ruled active, at fully last week's currency. The top figure
was Cts per Sibs.
