MARKETS--This Day.

MARK LANE.
In the country markets, held on Saturd iy, selected par-
re-
cels of English wheat were in moderate demand, at p
vioue quotations, but other kinds were difficult of sale.
Melting and seed barley ruled firm, and prices were well
supported. Beans, peas and flour, however, changed hands
flour,
to a limited extent on former terms.
The wheat trade, on the continent, is steady, at late rates,
Advices from New York are to the effect that the demand
for wheat, flour and maize was less active, at rather lower
prices.
Up to our market, last week, the arrivals
ad of
amEnglish
grain were moderate. The inverts from abro
to 7,669 quarters of wheat; 4,770 barley ; 6.424 oats ; 71
beans; 677 peas; 1,362 tares; 400 linseed ; 2,592 sundry
seeds ; and 8,711 barrels of flour.
to this morning's market, the arrivals of Eng-
lisFhrgersah up
grain were small; however, with the supply left over
from last week, the quantity exhibited for sale was mode •
rate, and the condition of the produce was tolerably good.
Buyers, both of red and white parcels, evinced great reluc-
tance in making sales, which could only be effected by sub-
mitting to a reduction in prices, compared with Monday
last, of two shillings per quarter. Even at this decline, a
clearance had not been effected at the close of business.
The show of samples of foreign wheat on the stands was
moderately ex ensive, for the most part ex granary. Good
and fine Dantzic and the best qualities of red American pro
duce moved off slowly, at last Monday's quotations , other-
wise the trade ruled heavy, and prices had a downward
tendency.
Floating cargoes of grain were in slow request on former
terms.
Fine home. grown barley was in demand for seed and
malting purposes, at extreme rates. Other descriptions,
however, met a dull inquiry, yet the currency exhibited no
material change from this day se'ennight. The supply both
of English and foreign qualities was only moderate, and
fine parcels were diffcult to obtain.
Good and fine m
.fairly maintained its value ; but in-
ferior parcels were a dull inquiry at barely late rates.
The supply of home-grown and foreign oats was small.
Sweet qualities ruled firm at extreme quotations; inferior
produce, however, was much neglected, and rates, in many
instances, were very low.
Beans for seed were in request at very full prices. Other
descriptions met a fair average sale, ant the quotations
were supported. There was a moderate supply on uffer.
Peas were very scarce, and all descr.ptiona commanded
extreme rates. _ _ _

Both English and foreign flour sold slowly, yet no quot-
able change took place in prices, compared with Monday
last.
