MARKET NE WS.-(THIS DAY-)

CORN EXCHANGE—MONDAY.
The leading provincial markets held on Saturday
were seasonably well supplied with home grown Wheats,
in which only a limited business was doing, and, in some
instances, prices gave way iS per quarter. Foreign
Wheats were mostly held at full currencies. Malting
Barley was scarce, and quite as dear; but grinding on"
distilling sorts commanded very little attention. Malt
dull, but not cheaper. Oats, Beans, and Peas realized
previous rates. The Flour trade was less active, and
low qualities were difficult of disposal.
In France, the corn trade has been in a very dull
state, at barely the late decline. Most of the markets
up the Baltic and Black Seas have ruled very firm for
Wheat, on rather higher terms. The demand for Flour
in the United States, at the date of our last advices, was
firmer.
Up to our market last week, the receipts of Enge

687 Beans, 544 Peas, 4,379 Tares, 1,732 Linseed, 2.138
Rapeseed, 37 sundry seeds, 3,163 sacks and 3,878
barrels of Flour.

the minds of buyers here to-day.

DIZNATGATII AND I. a ADMIIECALL.
Our markets continue to be In avily supplied with
country killed meat, the receipts of which during the
past week have exceeded 10.000 carcasses; but the sup-
plies on offer slaughtered in the metropolis are by 130
means large. For the primest Beef and Mutton the
demand is tolerably steady, at full prices. In
other
kinds of meat very little is doing.
