MARK-LANE.

The demand for• wheat in the country markets held on
Saturday ruled quiet, and in some instances a decline in
prices of is per quarter took place. Good and fine
malting barley was very firm at fully late rates.
Other kinds of spring corn, including flour, supported pre-
vious quotations.

On the Continent the wheat trade is steady at full prices,
and spring corn fully supports previous quotations. At
New York flour has commanded more attention on
higher terms, but the trade for wheat is slow at barely late
rates.'

Fresh up to our market to-day a small supply of
wheat was received from Essex and Kent. The condition
of the produce was very middling. The trade for good
and fine dry samples ruled, on the whole, steady ; and last
Monday's currency was supported. As regards inferior
and damp produce, the trade was in a most inactive state ;
neverthless, the prices realised; although a drooping ten-
dency was decidedly apparent, were without quotable
change from this day annight

The supply of foreign wheat on sale was only mode-
rate. There was a want of animation in the trade, and
the amount of business transacted was somewhat restricted•
In prices, as compared with Monday last, no quotable
change took place.

Floating cargoes, both of wheat and spring corn, moved
off steadily at full quotations.
The market was somewhat more freely supplied with
English barley, and the show of fresh produce was mode-
rate. Malting parcels of good and fine quality were scarce,
and changed hands at quite late rates ; otherwise, the bar-
ley trade was steady at last Monday's currency.
The malt trade was firm, and the late advance in prices
was well supported. _

Oats were in good supply, but the samples on offer al-
most entirely represented foreign produce. The trade
was quieter than on Friday last, and in some instances
prices declined 6d per quarter.

The few beans of English growth on offer changed
hands at fully late rates.

Peas were firm, at the extreme prices of Monday last.
The show of samples on offer was limited.
There was a moderate demand for flower, at late prices.

Compared with many previous weeks, the supply of
foreign stock here to-day was only moderate. The de-
mand was therefore steady, and quotations were well sup-
ported.

- The arrivals of beasts fresh up from our own grazing
districts were on the increase, and in improved condition.
Generally speaking, the beef trade was quiet ; yet, in
some instances, prices were a shade higher than on Mon-
day last. Prime Scots and crosses sold at 5s 4d per 81b.
A few very superior animals produced 5s 6d per 81b.
Many very useful beasts sold at 5s to 5s 2d per 81b. From
Ireland and Scotland the receipts of beasts were moderate.
The inspectors of the market seized 17 beasts from For-
farshire suffering from disease.

From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton,
we received 1,800 short horns, &c. ; from other parts of
England, 900 various lbreeds ; from Scotland, 117 Scots
and crosses ; and from Ireland, 800 oxen, cows, and heifers.
With all breeds of sheep we were moderately supplied
in but middling condition. The trade ruled firm, at a
further advance in the currencies of 2d per 81bs. The best
Downs realsed 6s 8d to 6s 10d, and even 7s per Blbs. The
top price of half-breds was Os 6d to 6s 8d per 81bs.
The supply of calves was limited, and the veal trade
ruled steady, at full prices, viz., from 4s 6d to 5s 6d
per 81bs.

Pigs, owing to the high rates demanded for them, were
heavy, and the quotations had a drooping tendency.
