MARKET A'RIVS-(THIS :DAY.)

CORN MXCHANGE.

The trade for wheat in . the whole of the country markets
held on Saturday was in a very depressed state, at a decline
in the quotations of full y ls. per quarter. There was less
inquiry for barley, the v. blue of which had a downward ten-
dency. Malt was held r I full prices; but oats, beans, peas,
and flour moved off heal 'ily on somewhat easier terms.
In the various tontine ntal markets, the amount of busi-
ness doing on English a ,3count of late has been very mode-
rate. In prices, howei rer, no material change has taken
place. Advices from the United States are to the effect
that holders of wheat flour were firm in their de-
mands.

The arrivals of English. grain up to our market last week
were on the increase. From abroad we received 52,357
quarters of wheat ; 15, 186 barley ; 46,755 oats ; 2,707
beans ; 2,722 peas ; 540 - tares ; 3,358 linseed ; 1,350 rape-
seed ; 181 sundry seeds ; 1,399 sacks of flour.
Fresh up, to-day, the turivals of wheat from Essex arri_
Kent, coastwise, wore bi It moderate—those from the Ea
coast, very limited. By land carriage, the supply of tba
grain was trifling ; nevertheless, the show of samples of
red and white—chiefly the refuse of last week, and in
mostly in very inferior condition—was tolerably good. As
the attendance of millers Wa3 comparatively small, the de-
mand for all kinds of wheat of home produce Isms in a vev
depressed state. However, the few fine sample -3 on shop;
realised la3t Monday's prices ; but all other kinds were
quite ls. per quarter lower, without a clearance being
effected.

There were very few inquiries for forward delivery sam-
ples, although the growers were disposed to accept rather
lower terms.

With foreign wheat we were somewhat extensively su-n-
-plied ; but the quality of last week's imports was by no
means first-rate. Good heavy samples were held at full
currencies ; but all other kinds met a very dull inquiry,
and must be considered the turn in favour of buyers.
The arrival of floating cargoes off the coast has increased.
The business doing them was limited in the extreme,
at barely stationary prices.
The aggregate supply of barley was large. Really fine
malting samples changed hands slowly, at late rates ; but
grinding and distilling sorts were exceedingly heavy, at a
decline in the quotations of fully is. per quarter.
We were well supplied with malt, which sold slowly, at
late currencies. _

The supply of oats being very extensive, the oat trade
ruled heavy, at .a decline of quite 6d. per quarter.
The sale for beans was very inactive, at previous quota-
tions.

In peas next to nothing was doing.
Flour, the supply of which was good, ruled heavy, at
barely late prices.
Several parcels of flour and oats were forwarded to Aus-
ti alia last week.
