MARKETS---This Day,

MARK-LANE.

In the country markets held on Saturday there was a
fair demand for English wheat, and all good and fine quali-
ties ruled firm in price. Malting barley sold steadily, at
full quotations, but grinding and distilling qualities, includ-
ing oats, beans, and peas, met a dull inquiry at about pre-
vious rate. Flour changed hands to a moderate extent, on
former terms.

As regards the export trade the American grain markets
are very inactive. On the continent the demand for all
descriptions of grain is in a sluggish state.
The supplies of English grain received up to our market
last week, but moderate. The imports from abroad com-
prised 25,407 quarters of wheat-13,205 barley-32,202
oats-709 beans-35 tares-4,310 linseed-5,052 oilseeds-
-253 sundry seeds-875 sacks and 8,350 barrels of flour.
A small supply of home-grown wheat was received fresh
up to this morning's market. A few parcels were on sala
in poor condition, but, generally speaking, the quality of
the produce was good. Both for red and white samples
the trade ruled firm, and last Monday's quotations were
well supported. At the close of business a clearance had
been effected at that day's rates.
There was a full average supply of foreign wheat on the
stands. The transactions in most descriptions were
tolerably large, and prices ruled firm.
A fair business was transacted in floating cargoes of grain
at late quotations.
Toe show of fine malting barley on offer was very mode-
rate, and such samples commanded extreme rates. With
secondary qualities, however, the market was well supplied,
and the demand ruled inactive at about previous quotations.
Grinding and distilling parcels met a dew sale on former
terms.

The demand for malt was in a sluggish state at late cur.
rencies. The supply of new produce was small.

The supply of oats was again very large. In prices
scarcely any change took place from Monday last, but in-
ferior qualities were difficut of sale, even at the recent
low prices. For good and fine produce there was a fair
average inquiry at last Monday's currency.
Beans—the supply of which was moderate—moved off
slowly at the late fall in their value.

With peas the market was but moderately supplied,
especially with foreign qualities, and the trade ruled
steady at late rates.

Both English and foreign flour moved off steadily
Town-made was reduced 3s per 28i1bs.

Presentation of the Lord Mayor Elect,

(THIS DAY.)
This morning the Lord Mayor, Sheriffs, the. Recorder,
and the other civic functionaries attended the Lord Chan-
cellor, for the purpose of presenting, for her Mejesty's ap-
proval, Mr, Alderman Lawrence, whom the citizens had
elected to fill the office of Lord Mayor of London for the
ensuing year.

The Lord Chancellor was attired in his full State robes
of office, and attended by his secretary and purse bearer.
The RECORDER advanced and formally introduced the
Lord Mayor elect. He remarked that Mr. Alderman Law-
rence, whom the citizens had elected to fill the office of
Lord Mayor of London, was a gentleman in all respects
eminently qualified to fill the high and responsible office.
For many years he had carried on a large business, and in
all his dealings had been characterised by honour and in-
tegrity. The learned gentleman then proceeded to give an
account of Alderman Lawrence's antecedents, adding that
he was held in the highest possible esteem by his fellow-
citizens, and that he had the greatest confidence in present-
ing him to his lordship for her Majesty's approval.
The Lonn CHANCELLOR then addressed the Lord Mayor
elect, and said it was with the greatest satisfaction that he
bad to announce that her Majesty highly approved of the
choice which the citizens of London had made in electing
Mr. Alderman Lawrence to fill the office of Lord
Mayor, an office which was worthy the highest
ambition of the most distinguished man the city
of London could produce, His Lordship then alluded
to the part the worthy alderman had already taken in pub-
lic affairs, and concluded by saying that as the Chief Judge
at the Central Crininal Court, he had no doubt he would
discharge his duty with the same carefulness and zeal as
all his predecessors. In every respect he felt peculiarly
gratified in expressing to Alderman Lawrence her Ma-
jesty's high approval of the choice which the citizens had
made in electing him to be chief magistrate of the City of
London.

The LORD CHANCELLOR then advarced to the Lord
Mayor and shook hands with him, as also the other civic
dignitaries present.
The loving cup having been handed round, the civic
party retired.
