MARKETS—This Day,

MARK-LANE.
The wheat trade in the country markets held on Saturday
ruled firm, at fully late rates. In spring corn a fair average
business was transacted-, and previous quotations wore well
supported. The flour trade was steady, on former terms.
Advices from New York state that an increased amount
of business is doing in produce, for export to Great Britain,
at enhanced currencies. On the Continent, the trade
generally is steady.
For the time of year the amounts of home-grown produce
up to our market last week were moderate. The imports
from abroad amounted to 3,287 quarters of wheat, 2,607
barley, 44,047 oats, 3,063 peas, 4d tears, 3,478 oilseed, 777
maim, 16 sundry seeds, 200 sacks and 8,017 barrels of flour.
Fresh up to our market to-day the arrivals of home-
grown wheat were very moderate, but the condition of the
produce was good, and both red and white qualities met a
steady sale at the rates current on Montl)y last.
A fair average supply of foreign wheat was on the stands
The amount ct business transacted was very moderate.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

There was a full average supply of foreign stock on offer
here to-day. The quality of the beasts was poor—of sheep
middling—of calves, tolerably good. The trade was in-
active, at about previous rates.

The arrivals of beasts, fresh up from our own grazing
districts, as well as from Scotland, were moderately good as
to number ; but the quality of most breeds was by no means
prime. The best Scots, crosses, &e., moved off steadily,
and, in some instances, the quotations had an upward ten-
dency. Otherwise, the beef trade was in a sluggish state,
on former terms. Our top figure for beef was 5s 2d
per Ms.

From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire,
we received 1,800 Scots and crosses.; from Lincolnshire,
700 short horns; from other parZs of England, 400 various
breeds ; from Scotland, 171 Scots and crosses ; and, from
Ireland, 80 oxen and heifers.

There was a fair demand for lambs the supply of which
was good-:—at from äs 8d to 78 per 81bs.

Calves were in fair average supply, and sluggish request

descriptions support last week's currency—but the demand
is chiefly confined to last year's produce. The accounts
from the Plantations are, on the whole, favourable. Last
week's imports amounted to 152 bales from Antwerp ; and
188 bales from New York.
