ikLARKBT NEW.3.-(T.FILS' DAY.)

CORN EX )RANGE.
Most of the country markets held on Saturday wez e but
•noderately supplied with wheat. For most kinds there
was a steady demand, and prices were well supper :tad.
Barley was very dull, and lower to purchase. In. other
kinds of spring corn, including flour, very little big mess
was transacted.

The French markets are dull and drooping, wqt h in-
creased supplies of wheat and flour on offer.. In the Power
Baltic ports only a limited business is doing on E n glish
account. Prices, however, were very high. Fronr, New
York we learn that steady shipments of grain' and, flour
have been made to England.
The receipts of English grain up to our market last. -week,
were very moderate. From abroad we received . 5,502
quarters of wheat, 20,213 oats, 410 beans, 1,458 peal, 16
tares, 888 linseed, 1,123 rapeseed, 942 sundry seeds, and
1,158 sacks of flour.

The arrivals of wheat up to our market to-day from
Essex and Kent, coastwise, were very moderate, bt tt. in
fair average condition. The receipts from quarter a by
laud carriage wore slightly on the increase, compared with
Monday last. On the whole there was a fair sprit): kling
~f samples, and the demand for most qualities ruled sb rady
at, in most transactions, an improvement in the quota Lions
realised on Monday last of from is to 2s per quarter. The
attendance of both town and country buyers was ra ather
on the increase.

The quantity of foreign wheat on show was by no 12 leans
extensive. The inquiry for most descriptions was con fined
to immediate wants, yet late rates were freely suppo :ted.
All floating cargoes of grain were in request, at the
ea-
tremo rates of last week.

The supply of both English and foreign barley was very
moderate.? Goad heavy qualities sold to a fair cxl ent,
at full prices. Inferior kinds were dull, but wit hout
change in price.

We had a steady sale for malt, at very full prices.
The oat trade was tolerably firm. In the quottv tions
very little change took place.
There was a steady sale for beans, at extreme rates.,

White peas were dull, and 28. cheaper, bat the r -alue
of grey and Maple was well supported.
The flour trade was by no means active, at last No eek's
currency.

Letters from Ireland state that large supplies of st ock,
in good condition, will be shipped to this country du; dog
the next three weeks. The arrivals here continue ex ten-
sive, and both beasts and sheep are above average quality.
The receipts by sea last week were 15 beasts.
To-day's market was fairly supplied with each kind of
foreign stock. The show from Ireland, via Liver ,-p 001,
amounted to 250 beasts and 1,000 sheep, in excellent t on-
d ition. • •

-------
From our own grazing districts the receipts of bes ,sts
fresh up this morning were moderate, and mostly in p nor
condition. As the weather was favourable for slaughter-
ing, and as the attendance of buyers was good, the be ief
trade ruled steady, at prices quite 2d. per 81bs. abo ye
those paid on Monday last. The advance, however, Iv as
chiefly confined to the best qualities of beef, which we re
worth 5s per 81bs.
The arrivals of beasts frent Lincolnshire, Leicestersh We,
and Noithamptonshire amounted to 1,900 short horns, and
from other parts of England 300 of various. breeds. Tl lore
were no receipts from Scotland.

There was about an average show of sheep, but at le tat
two-thirds of them ware in middling condition. M kilt
breeds sold steadily, at full quotations. The primeit 'ld
Downs realised 5s per 81bs.
The supply of Dutch calves was rather extensive, b ut
that of English was small. The veal trade was steady, s
last Monday's currency. The best calves sold at ss. 2d. p
81bs. We were scantily supplied with pigs, in which is
good business was transacted, at very full prices. Abou
20U Irish pigs were in the market.
