CORN EXCHANGE:

There was rather more bustnass transacted in wheat in
the leading country markets held on Saturday, and, on
the whole, prices were fairly supported. Fine barley and
oats commanded extreme currencies, but other kinds of
produce were a slow sale.

Scarcely any change has taken place in the vilue of pro-
duce in the French markets. Both wheat and flour have
ruled easier in America, owing to a falling off in the export
demand.

Up to our market last weak the arrivals of English grain
were very moderate. The imports from abroad were
46,464 quarters of wheat, 27,847 barley, 34,896 oats, 250
beans, 7,191 peas, 3,700 tares, 14 862 linseed, 14,181 rape-
seed, 50 sundry seeds, and 65,972 barrels of flour.
The supply-of English wheat, fresh up t, this morning's
market was very small, but the condition of the samples,
generally speaking, was good. The trade, however, both
for red and white qualities was by no means active; never-
theless, the trade must be considered firm, at the decline
in the quotations noticed on Monday last.
There was a large show of samples of foreign wheat on
the stands. Compared with this day se'nnight, no quotable
change took place in the currencies, but we must remark
that there was a decidedly increased amount of business
transacted in nearly all descriptions.
Floating cargoes of grain changed hands to a moderate
extent, and prices were fairly maintained,
In the barley trade less firmness was observed, and a
dec'ine of is per qr. was submitted to in order to effect sales.
This reduction applies more particularly to malting qualities.
In malt very little was doing, on former terms.
Oats commanded a fair sale, and the currencies were
steadily supported. The supply on offer was only moderate.
With beans we were tolerably well supplied, and all
descriptions moved off slowly, at about previous rates.
Peas were in limited supply and fair request, at late
currencies.

The flour trade was firm as regards prices, wich were
well supported. Sales, howevei-, progressed slowly.
