MARKET Pi E WS.-(THiS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.-(FRIDAY.)
Notwithstanding that the arrivals of English Wheat
up to cur market this week have been on a very limited
scale, and that the show of samples fresh up was small,
the aereand for all kinds, owing to the favourable ac-
counts at hand resp7cting the growing crops, and the
thin attendance of millers, was in a sluggish state, but
we have no change to notice in prices. For forward
delivery next to nothing was doing. The imports of
Foreign Wheat have amounted to 6,590 quarters.
Selected parcels were held at full currencies, but
low and middling kinds commanded very little
attention. Floating cargoes met a dull sale;
but holders refused to accept lower rates. We
were very scantily supplied with cli kinds of Barley,
for which the inquiry was steady at full currencies. The
Malt trade was dull, and old parcels were the turn
lower. The supply of Oats was very moderate. Holders
were firm in their demand, and prices were well sup-
ported. Both Beans and Peas were quite as dear, but
Indian Corn and Flour commanded very little attention.

To-day's market was but moderately supplied with
beasts, the general quality of which was inferior. The
few prime Scots on show produced full prices; but all
other kinds were very dull. Amongst the foreign stock
were 48 beasts from Spain, in wretched condition. The
numbers of Sheep exhibitcd a falling off. On the whole
the Mutton trade was steady, at full quotations. The
top figure for the best old Downs was 35 10d per 81bs.
We had an improved inquiry for Lambs, the value of
which had, in some instances, an upward tendency.
Calves, the supply of which was extensive, moved off
steadily at late rates. In Pigs very little business wag
transacted. Much Cows were firm, at from 161 to 19156
each, including their small Calf.

The show of samples of all kinds of Hops is very
limited; nevertheless, the demand, owing to the favour-
able accounts at hand respecting the general appearance
of the bine, is very inactive, and prices are barely sup-
ported. Sussex pockets, 51 ss to 6155; Weald of Kent,

FOREIGN.—Ihe market has been quiet, but privately
ailliaarng,echty
businessifl is understood to have been done in Bra-
zilian, floating cargoes.
COFFEE. Rather less has been doing, and the uncer-
tainty as to an alteration of the chicory arrangement
has caused a depression. Native Ceylon of the new im-
ort has been sold privately, at 458 6d,and old ditto
Pat 455. Plantation has been rather heavy, except for

usual character at this period of the year. Lisbon
Oranges of good quality sustain their value. Two
parcels sold by Keeling and Runt at public sale went at
prices similar to those obtained of late. Lemons aro
dull of sale, owing to the weather being prejudicipi to
consumption. Nuts are in fair demand, and stock
lighter than has been the case for many seasons past.
