CORN EXCHANGE-(FRIDAY.)
Notwithstanding that the arrivals of English Wheat,
this week, coastwise and by land carriage, have bean some—
what on the increase, the show of samples of bath red and
white here to-day was very limited, but quite equal to the
wants of the millers. Selected qualities sold at Monday's
prices ; but low and middling parcels were heavy, and a total
clearance of them was not effected. The imports of
Foreign Wheat have amounted to 3,230 quarters; but the
quantity on offer was comparatively small. The large
quantity of French Flour at band had a depressing influence
upon the trade, arid late rates were with difficulty supported.
Floating cargoes were much neglected, yet we cannot call
them lower. With both English and Foreign Barley we
were tolerably well, but not to say largely, supplied.
Picked samples fit for malting were steady at late rates.
In grinding and distilling sorts very little was doing. No
change took place in the value of malt, for which article the
inquiry ruled inactive. The show of Oats was limited,
whilst the demand for most kinds was 'steady, at full prices.
Beans, Peas, Indian Corn, and Flour were very dull.

To.day's market inmer.D. was very moderatel sulied with
Feasts; nevertheless, as the attendancey pp
of buyers was
limited, the demand for that
_description of stock ruled
heavy, at Monday's decline in the quotations. The number
of Sheep was slightly on the increase compared with Friday
last. All breeds met a very slow inquiry• but we have no
change to notice in prices. The extreme figure for the best
old Downs, in the wool, was 4s 2d per 81bs. In Lambs very
little business was transacted, yet Down qualities were
,worth Eli 8d per filbs. Calves moved off slowly, at barely
late rates. -In •Pigs next to nothing was doing. Mich
Cows were quoted at from 141 to 181 each, including their
small Calf.
