MARK-LANE,

Moderate supplies of home-grown wheat were on offer in
the loading country markets held on Saturday. Seleeted
parcels moved cff steadily at lull prices ; otherwise, the
trade was in a very inactive state. All descriptions of
spring corn met a dull inquiry at barely late rates. No
change of importance took place in the value of flour, but
the business transacted in it was much restricted.
The Continental corn markets are without improvement,
and the demand for export, except for the finest produce, is
on a limited scale. The American advices represent the
market at New York as heavy for all cereals, at barely pre-
vious quotations.
Bat moderate supplies of English grain were received
up to our market last week. The imports from abroad
amoudted to 11,845 quarters of wheat, 19,490 barley, 12,823
oats, 990 peas, 258 tares, 9,846 linseed, 1,464 oilseeds, 651
sacks, and 6,565 barrels of flour.
A limited supply of English wheat was received fresh up
to this morning's market, but, owing to the prevailing
dry weather, the condition of the produce was tolerably
good. The attendance of buyers, in consequence of the
holidays, was far from numerous, and the trade, both
for red and white parcels, ruled heavy. Selected qualities
fairly supported last Monday's currency; otherwise, the
quotations had a downward tendency. The supply had not
been wholly disposed of at the close of business.
The show of samples of foreign wheat on the stands was
somewhat extensive. The demand for all descriptions was
in a sluggish state, and, in some instances, prices ruled in
favour of buyers, but not to an extent to justify any altera-
tion in the currency.
In floating cargoes of grain, a limited business was trans-
acted, on former terms.
There were but few samples of barley on offer suitable to

malting, yet the demand—owing to the close of the season
—was heavy, at drooping prices. In the grinding and dis-
tilling qualities the market was well supplied, and sales
progressed heavily, at last Monday's quotations.
Malt changed hands to a limited extent at previous cur-
rencies.

The supply of oats was by no moans extensive. Good
and fine parcels met a steady sale, and prices ruled firm ;
otherwise, the trade was quiet on former terms,
The market was exceedingly bare of beans, both Eng-
lish and foreign, and the supply was mostly disposed of
at late rates.

...
Peas—the supply of which was smaller—moved off
slowly at previous quotations.
No alteration took place in the value of any kind of flour.
The inqury, however, was mostly confined to immediate
wants.
