MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY•)

CORN JE XC ILAN GE.-....11110 ND AY.
Most of the country markets held on Saturday were
very scantily supplied with English
Wheat, all kinds of
which moved off heavily, at about stationary prices.
At the outports inferior foreign parcels were offering
on lower terms. Barley and Alalt !vet a very dull in-
quiry, at reduced currencies; whilst Oats, Beans, and
Peas were easier to purchase. Indian Corn and Flour
commanded very little attention.
Our advices from the large shipping ports on the
Continent state that the Grain trade has continued in a
depressed state, at drooping figures. The demand for
Flour in the United States has ruled firm, but no ad-
vance has taken place in prices.
Up to our market last week, very limited supplies of
English Grain came to hand. From abroad we re-
ceived 31,415 quarters of Wheat, 12,215 Barley, 37,546
Oats, 1,500 Beaus, 5,242 Peas, 624 Tares, 40 sundry
Seeds, 2,424 sacks and 7109 barrels of Flour. •
Fresh up to-day the receipts of wheat from Essex
and Kent, coastwise, were very moderate, but in excel-
lent condition. From the East coast the supply of that
grain was limited. By land carriage the receipts were
-confined to a few cotchehe of red. The show of samples
being trilling, and the attendance of millers—most of
.whom were unusually short of stock—rather on the in-
crease, the demand for most kinds of home-grown
Wheats was steady, and a clearance was effected prior to
the close of business, at prices equal to those obtained
on Monday last.
The inquiry for- forward delivery parcels was very
inactive. The growers, however, refuted to accept
lower rates, as the stocks held by them are extremely
small.
With foreign Wheat we were somewhat extensively,
supplied, and the show of Dantec parcels, notwith-
standing that several cargoes lately received here have
gone direct into the hands of the millers, was seasonably
good. Really fine qualities sold at full currencies, but
low and middling kinds were very dull, and a shade
lower.
Floating cargoes of Wheat and Indian Corn core-
mauled very little attention, but we canuot call them
lower.
Scarcely any old English Barley was brought for-
ward, but three new parcels from Kent made their ap-
pearance in middling condition, and were partly disposed
of at 32s per quarter. Foreign
supply, and heavy demand at is per quarter less money.
the Malt trade was very dull, and old parcels were
easier to purchase.
We were very heavily supplied with foreign Oats, for
parcels were in good
which the trade was heavy, at a fall in prices of fully
6d to, in some instances, is per quarter. .Home-grown
qualities were very dull.
In Beans very little doing, at barely late rates.
Peas were heavy, and quite la per quarter lower.
New qualities were on show.
The Flour trade was very inactive, at low figures.
