MARK-LANE.
The trade for wheat in the country markets held on
Saturday was very inactive, and in some instances prices
- declined is per qr. Most descriptions of spring corn were
in fair average request, and the quotations ruled firm. For
flour there was a fair demand at full prices.
On the continent the wheat trade is less active at droop-
ing currencies, but for spring corn the market presents a
firm appearance. At New York the trade for wheat, flour.
and maize is very chill.
Up to our market last week the arrivals of English
grain were somewhat on the increase. The imports from
abroad consisted of 530 qrs of wheat, 4,411 barley, 150 malt,
8,511 oats, 1,400 beans, 1,089 tares, 18,760 linseed, 3,964
rapeseed, 154 sundry seeds, and 779 sacks of flour.
Fresh up to our market to-day the arrivals of wheat from
Essex were moderate, and the total supply of that county's
produce on the stands—owing to a considerable proportion
of last week's supplies being again brought forward—was
tolerably large. From Kent a fair average supply was ex-
hibited for sale. The general condition of the produce was
but middling. The trade for all qualities was in a most
inactive state, and, as compared with the highest prices
lately current, the quotations showed a reduction of from
ls. to 2s. per quarter. About a moiety of the supply was
disposed of at that decline in the currency. .
The market was but moderately supplied with Russian,
Prussian, and other continental wheats. The supply of
American produce on sale was small. For all descriptions,
however, the demand ruled very inactive, and the total
amount of business was much restricted. In some instances
prices were rather easier than on Monday last.
Wheat, afloat, was dull, and the quotations had a droop-
ing tendency. Floating cargoes of spring corn, however,
were held at full prices.
A very moderate supply of English barley was on sale ;
but with foreign qualities the market was fairly supplied ;
generally speaking, the trade was slow. Good and fine
samples, however, changed hands at fully late rates.
Malt was in slow request at late rates. There was a fair
supply of oats, chiefly ex granary, on offer. The trade
' was by no means active for any description, but prices
ruled firm. No quotable change however took place.
Beans were in short supply, and the demand for them at
full quotations.
The flour trade was rather quieter than on Monday last,
but without leading to any alteration in prices. The supply
of American flour on 'sale was very small. French flour
was in fair supply.
Peas continue firm in price owing to the limited supply
on offer. The business done to-day was at last Monday's
currency.
