CORN EXCHANGE.

The transactions in wheat in the leading country mar-
kets held on Saturday were limited, and inferior samples
were again somewhat lower in price. Spring wheat and
flour moved off slowly, and the quotations were with diffi-
culty supported.
Throughout the Continent the corn trade generally rules
heavy, but no change has taken place in the currencies.
At the date of our last ad vices very- little business was
doing in breadstuffs at New York on English account.
Very small supplies of English grain were received up to
our market last week. From abroad we received 27,733
qrs • barley, 12,493 qrs oats, 5,000 qrs
qrs linseed, 2,010 qrs rape-
seed, 5,251 qrs maze, and 720 sacks and 68,238 brls flour.

To this morning's market the arrivals of English wheat,
fresh up, were exceedingly small; consequently the total
supply on offer was much restricted, and the condition of
the samples, owing to the continuance of damp weather,
was very inferior. The few dry parcels on sale were dis-
posed of at last Monday's currency ; otherwise, the trade
was in a sluggish state, yet, compared with this day se'en-
night no quotable change took place in prices. The whole
of the supply was net disposed of at the close of business.
We were well supplied with foreign wheat. In good
and fine qualities a fair consumptive business was trans-
acted, and on the whole the quotations were steadily main-
tained. Inferior descriptions moved off slowly at the late
decline in prices.
Floasing cargoes of grain were in moderate demand, at
late curriences.
The supply of English barley was small ; of foreign,
somewhat extensive. Malting qualities were scarce, and
they sold readily at extreme rates ; but other descriptions
were a dull inquiry, on former terms.

full prices ; otherwise the oat trade was dull, and the quo-
tations were barely supported.
Beans were in limited supply, but slow request, at last
Monday's currency.
The inquiries for peas were without improvement, yet
prices ruled firm, in consequence of the small supply on
sale.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.
For the time of year there was a fair supply of foreign
stock on offer to-day as to number, but its general quality
was very middling, when compared with several previous
weeks. Sales progressed slowly, at barely stationary
prices.

year not to be
half year.

Notwithstanding that there was a falling off in the supply
of beasts from our own grazing districts, the demand for all
breeds was inaetive ; nevertheless, no quotable change took
place in the currencies. The best Scots and crosses ware
disposed of at from 4s 2d to 4s 4d per Sibs ; although there
were some remarkable prime stock on offer, the general
quality of the beasts was rather inferior.

From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we
received 1,900 Scots, short horns, and crosses; from
other parts of England, 760 various breeds ; from Scotland,
600 Scots and crosses ; and from Ireland, 100 oxen and
heifers.

There was an increased supply of sheep on sale, in, for
the most part, good condition. All breeds in the wool
moved off somewhat freely, and prices were well supported ;
prime Downs having sold at ds 6d per 81bs. Clipped
sheep, however, were a dull inquiry, at a decline in the
quotations, compared with Monday last, of 2d per 81b.
Prime Downs, out of the wool, realised 4s 10d per 81bs.'
Lambs—the show of which was seasonably extensive—
met a dull sale at from 68 to 7s per 81bs, being a decline in
the value of inferior breeds of from 211 to 4d per 81bs. From
the Isle of Wight 210 head came to hand.

Calves were in moderate request at Thursday's currency.
The top price was 5s 3d per 81bs.

We have to report a dull

THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVE NI Nth, APRIL 7, 1862,

English wool sbiee olAr last report. Down qualities have
fully supported previous rates, and icy deep-grown qualities
there has been more inquiry, though wit Lout leading to any
advance in the quotations. We do not, howe7erl consider
the market by any means active. Colonial and fo:eign
wools have commanded very little attention. Last week's
imports were 6,077 bales from Sydney; 4,642 Port Philip;
1,515 Algoa Bay; 2,564 Adelaide; 1,077 Hobart Town;
and 3,939 bales from Geelong.
