PREFERENCE SHARES AND STOCKS_

CORN EXCHANGE.

There was an improved feeling in the demand for
wheat in most of the country markets held on Saturday,
and in some instances the quotations had an upward ten-
dency. Barley, oats, and flour commanded full prices, but
beans and peas were a dull inquiry.
Throughout the cont inent very little has been doing in
wheat of late, for forward shipment, whilst the export de-
mand in America still continues heavy. The stocks of pro-
duce in the interior of the country are very large for the
time of year.

Up to our market last week the arrivals of English
grain were very small. The imports from abroad were 5,023
qrs wheat, 13,955 barley, 27,124 oats, 2,600 peas, 1,260 lin-
seed, 80 rapeseed, 95 sundry seeds, 367 sacks and 5,491
brls flour.

The arrivals of English wheat both from Essex and Kent,
fresh up, to this morning's market were much restricted,
and the samples, generally speaking, came to hand in some-
what improved though by no means first-rate condition. All
dry parcels met a steady sale, and the rates current on
Monday last were fully supported. Inferior qualities, how-
ever, were a dull inquiry; nevertheless, compared with
this day se'nnight, the currencies were without quotable
change.

The show of foreign wheat was seasonably extensive, and
consisted, for the most part, of samples ex-granary. In
most descriptions a fair business was transacted, and last
Monday's quotations were fully maintained.
For floating cargoes of grain there was a fair demand,
and prices ruled firm.
Malting barley was scarce, and was fully as dear as on
this day se'nnight. Grinding and distilling sorts, however,
moved off slowly at late rates. The show of samples of
English was small; of foreign somewhat extensive.
Fiae malt sold steadily at full currencies, but medium
and inferior parcels met a slow sale on former terms.
We were only moderately supplied with oats, for which
the demand ruled steady, at full prices.
Beans were held at quite previous rates, but the trade for
them was devoid of animation. The supply on offer was
small.

Peas moved off slowly ; nevertheless, the quotations ruled
firm, owing to the limited quantity on sale.

In most kinds of flour there was a fair business doing,
and late rates were steadily maintained.

SEEDS.

POLICE---THIS DAY.

The seed trade continues in a very unsatisfactory state
for the time of year, yet holders are unwilling to make any
concessions in prices, and the quotations must be considered
the same as last week. Cakes move off slowly at late i ates.
