MARKET NEWS-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.
.N
'cry moderate supplies of wheat were on sale in the
412 pa country markets held on Saturday. The demand
ed steady at an advance of from is to 2s per quarter.
Bt brley was in improved request, and the turn dearer.
alt and oats, as well as flour, were firm. In other ar-
t) Iles very little was- doing. The latest accounts from
t few York state that flour was rather lower, but that
rheat was in improved request. The continental markets
I t.ve continued very firm.
Up to our market last week the arrivals of English grain
1 rere but moderate. From abroad we received 33,660
ruarters of wheat, 8,809 barley, 16,040 oats, 22 beans, 970
I >eas, 16,639 linseed, 256 rapeseed, 56 mustard seed, 1,846
undry seeds, 647 sacks and 14,311 barrels of flour.
The arrivals of English wheat fresh up to this morning's
earket, coastwise from Essex and Kent, were very mo-
lerate, and in but middling condition. From the East
.oast scarcely any supply reached us, and the receipts by
and carriage were comparatively small. As the a ttend-
I nee of country buyers was large, the demand for all kinds
4 )f English wheat ruled active, at an advance in the prices
>f Monday last of from 33 to 4s per quarter. In some few
nstances 5s per quarter more money was realised.
Notwithstanding that the show of foreign wheat was
;ood, there was an improved demand for that article, the
currencies of which rose from 3s to 4s per quarter, coin-
] )ardd with this day se'nnight. Floating cargoes were in
-equest and dearer. Polish Odessa, 62s to 63s • Bordianski,
178 to 68s ; Taganrog Ghirka, 67s ; and Galatz, 55s to 56s
!es qnai ter, all charges included.
We had a fair supply of barley, which moved off steadily,
t is per quarter more money.
Malt was in but moderate supply, and steady request, at
V ery full prices.
The show of oats was large, yet the trade was active, at
s per quarter more money.
Both beans and peas were quite as dear as on Monday
I st. Indian corn was firm.
The flour trade was active. American parcels produced
24 per barrel, an&English, 3s to 5s per sack more money.

to-day's market was very extensively supplied with
°I; tign stock, in wretched condition.
1..„; ['here was a decided falling off in the arrivals of home-
,7°l . beasts fresh up this morning, and their general quality
"a 8 inferior. The primest breeds moved off steadily, at
:31, advance in the prices of Monday last of 2d per 81bs.
herwise, the beef trade was tolerably firm, and previous
"at ;es were well supported.
t. From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton-
Ll'', ire we received 2,600 short horns ; from other parts of
Et island, 600 Herefords, runts, Devons, &c. No arrivals

The supply of sheep was considerably less than on Mon-
y last ; hence, there was an improved demand for most
ur, sods, and, in some instances, late rates were rather ex-
% tiled. A few prime old Downs realised 5s 2d per 8 lbs.
Calves, the number of which was limited, moved off
briskly, at an improvement in value of 4d per 8 lbs.
We had a moderate ingudry for pigs, the prices of which
Ire ire well supported.
