MARKET NE WS.-(T HIS DAY.)

CORN-EXC H AN GE-MONDAY.
Nearly the whole of the provincial markets held on
Saturday were seasonably well supplied with English
Wheat; nevertheless, as millers in general were short of
stock, the demand for all kinds ruled somewhat active,
at an advance in the quotations of from is to 2s per
quarter. Foreign Wheats were held at a similar amount
of improvement. Malting Barley was Is higher, whilst
grinding and distilling sorts were quite as dear. In
Malt, comparatively little business was doing. Oats,
Beans, Peas, Indian Corn, and Flcur, were held at ex-
treme currencies. _ .

Advices from New York state that prices of both
Grain and Flour continued on the advance, with full
average shipments to England. The Baltic and Black
Sea markets have ruled very firm of late. la France,
very little is doing on English account.
Up to our market last week, the arrivals of English
produce were very moderate. From abroad we received
5,470 quarters of Wheat, 6,670 Barley, 6,567 Oats,
648 Peas, 510 Tares, 4,035 Linseed, 2,556 Rapeseed, 37
sundry seeds, 205 sacks and 3,759 barrels of Flour.
The quantity of Wheat received fresh up to this
morning's market from Essex, coastwise, was larger
than for some time- past, and in excellent condition.
From Kent, Suffolk, &c., the supply was very moderate,
A few parcels came to hand from the Midland districts ;
and the total show of samples may be c onsidered sea-
sonably good. Notwithstanding that the attendance of
millers was by no means large the demand for all kinds
of Wheat of home produce ruled steady, and a good
clearance was effected, at an advance in the quotations
obtained on Monday last of from is to, in some instances,
2s per quarter.
The transactions in English Wheat for forward de-
livery were comparatively small, owing to the enhanced
rates demanded by the growers.
With really fine foreign Wheat we were very scantily
supplied. Holders in general were firm in their de-
mands, and refused to sell except at is to 2s per quarter
More money, and which was partially realised. Low
and middling samples moved off slowly, yet prices were
well supported.
Very few floating cargoes were on offer. Continental
orders were received, but at very low limits. Egyptian
Parcels eold at 26s 6d per quarter, freight, cost, and
insurance.

The total supply of Barley was moderately good.
Malting samples moved off steadily, at fully last week's
Prices; but grinding and distilling sorts commanded
Very little attention.

Malt—the show of which ready for delivery was rather
limited—sold slowly, at late currencies.
Good sound Oats were steady, at full quotations. In
low and damp parcels, very little business was trans-
acted.

Beans were in fair average supply, and sluggish in-
quiry, at last week's prices.
White Peas moved off steadily at late rates. In Grey
and Maple, very little was doing.
Indian•corn, afloat, was held for more money.
The Flour trade was firm, and the quotations were
considered the turn higher.
