MARKET NEWS-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.

The show of English wheat in to-day's market, coast-
wise and land carriage, was limited. For all kinds we had
a slow sale ; yet Monday's prices Were well supported.
There was rather more firmness in the demand for
foreign Wheat, but we have no change to notice in the
quotations. This week's imports are under 3,000 qrs.
The barley trade was very dull, at barely late rates.
For malt there was scarcely any inquiry.
Oats, beans, and peas moved off slowly, on former
terms.
There was a very inactive inquiry for both English and
foreign flour.

MADAME PUZZI'S MATINEE MUSICALE.—This fashion-
able reunion took place on Monday, at Willis's Rooms,
when a short but very choice selection of music was per-
formed. A new instrumental manuscript quartett, by
Turma. gave much satisfaction, particularly the andante.
Mrs. Kirkman Jewsons's performance on the pianoforte,
in Beethoven's quintett, was a masterly piece of execu-
tion. Madame Suloman's singing of an air from Le
Proph,ete, a romance by Xucken, and a duet with
Signor Bettam, was the theme of universal admiration.
The Swedish cantatrioe sung in three different lan•
guages, and was much applauded. Our readers will re-
collect her admirable singing at Covent Garden, in 1849,
when she sung in English the roles of Norm a and
Lucia. We trust we shall have an opportunity of
again hearing this accomplished artiste at one of our
metropolitan theatres.
