Most. of the provincial markets held on Saturday were
fairly supplied with wheat, in which only a limited busi-
ness was transacted, at barely stationary prices. The barley
trade was in a depressed state, on lower terms. Oats,
beans, peas, and flour were lower to purchase.

Our advices from the continental markets are to the
effect that the demand for wheat for shipping purposes has
fallen off. We have no fresh news bearing upon the corn
trade from the United States.

Moderate supplies of English grain arrived up to our
market last week. The imports from abroad were 14,262
quarters of wheat, 2,265 barley, 12,439 oats, 694 beans,
305 peas, 274 tares, 4,833 linseed, 357 rapeseed, 53 mus-
tard seed, 65 sundry seeds, 1,274 sacks and 4,147 barrels
of flour.

The quantity of English wheat received fresh up to our
market to-day from Essex, Kent, and Cambridgeshire, was
on the increase, and in fair average condition. From other
quarters the arrivals wore very moderate. The show of
samples of both red and white was tolerably good. As
the attendance of both town and country millers was
small, the demand was in a depressed state, and the few
sales reported were at a decline in the prices obtained on
Monday last of from Is. to 2a. per quarter.
There was a full average supply of foreign wheat on offer;
all kinds met an extremely dull inquiry, though offered on
lower terms. So little was doing that the currencies were
I almost nominal.

Floating cargoes were dull, but nob cheaper.
We were well supplied with barley. Both English and
foreign qualities changed hands heavily, at is per quarter
less money.
_•

The malt trade was vary dull, at drooping currencies.
The show of oats was moderately extensive, and the
trade ruled inactive, at barely late rates.
For beans we had scarcely any demand, at last week's
decline.

The sale for peas was heavy, at barely stationary pricer.
For flour we had a dull inquiry.

The total imports of foreign stock into London last week
were very moderate. The total supply amounted to only
933 head, against 2,100 in 1854. The general quality of
the late arrivals is very inferior.

We had only a limited supply of foreign stock on offer
to-day; all kinds met a dull sale, at drooping prices.
From our own grazing districts the arrivals of beasts
were seasonably large, and in excellent condition ; indeed,
there were very few inferior animals on offer. The attend-
ance of buyers was by no means numerous, and the beef
trade was in a very depressed state, at a decline in the
quotations, compared with Monday last, of 4d per Ms.
The bullock arrivals from Norfolk and Suffolk amounted
to nearly 1,000 Scots and shorthorns ; from other parts
of England, 909 of various breeds; and from Scotland 500
Scots, chiefly by railway.

There was a very considerable increase in the supply of
all kinds of sheep. Generally speaking, this description of
stock came to hand in good condition, and there were
some very heavy superior sheep out of the wool. The
mutton trade was very dull, at a fall in prices of 2d per
81bs. The highest quotation for Downs was 5s poi Sib.
The supply of calves was moderate. The veal trado,
however, was heavy, at 61 per 81b less money. The
highest figure was 5s 6d per 81b.
We had a dull inquiry for pigs, on easier terms.
