MARKETS-THIS DAY.

MARK-LANE.

Only moderate supplies of wheat were on sale in the
country markets held on Saturday. There was an improved
demand for selected qualities, and in some instances prices
had an upward tendency. Inferior qualities, however,
were a slow inquiry. Spring corn and flour were dull, but
not cheaper.

The continental markets, almost generally, continue
heavy. The shipments of breadstuffs from America have
continued to fall off. Prices at New York show no margin
of profit on sales effected here.
Limited supplies of English wheat were received up to
cur market last week. The imports from abroad amounted
to 11,731 qrs of wheat, 13,655 barley, 18,578 oats, 773 beans,
574 peas, 101 tares, 12,783 linseed, 6,645 rapeseed, 2,366
maize, 847 sundry, 55 sacks and 1,045 barrels flour.
The fresh arrival of home-grown wheat to this morning's
market was small. A few samples came to hand in im-
proved condition, but the general state of the supply as
regards quality was by no means satisfactory. All good and
fine dry produce moved off steadily, and last Monday's
currency was well supported. Damp parcels commanded
but little attention, yet prices were without material change
from those current this day se'nnight.
The market was fairly supplied with foreign wheat. Red
American qualities changed hands to a moderate extent, at
full prices. Other descriptions met with a steady inquiry,
and the quotations ruled firm.
Floating cargoes of grain were in steady request, and late
rates were well supported.

_ -
Malting barley sold steadily at full prices. Grinding and
distilling sorts were in moderate request, at the late decline
in their value. The supply on offer was moderate.
The business done in malt was only moderate, on former
terms.

The supply of oats was by no means extensive. The
trade ruled firm, and fine sweet corn was somewhat dearer
than on Monday last.

Beans were in but moderate supply, and steady request,
at full prices.

Grey and white peas, the supply of which was rather
large, sold heavily, ai a decline of is per quarter.
There was less activity in the demand for barrel flour,
yet no reduction took place in its value. In other kinds
about an average business was transacted, at late rates.
