MARKET NEWS-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.

Most of the country markets held on Saturday were
fairly supplied with wheat, in which about an average
business was transacted at full prices. At the outports
foreign wheats were steady, but not dearer. Barley, the
supplies of which were but moderate, moved off freely, at
extreme rates. The malt trade was rather active. Oats,
beans, peas, and flour were very firm.
The Continental markets continue firm, and the late ad-
vance in prices has been well supported. The latest ad-
vices from New York state that the inquiry for grain and
flour was by no means active.
The arrivals of English grain up to our market last week
were on the increase. From abroad, we received 8,261
quarters of wheat, 2,975 barley, 3,410 oats, 4,775 beans,
835 peas, 473 tares, 3,540 linseed, 87 rapeseed, 291 mustard
seed, 19 sundry seeds, and 8,060 barrels of flour.
Fresh up, to-day, coastwise from Essex, Kent, &c., the
receipts of wheat were on a very moderate scale. By land
carriage the supply was by no means extensive, neverthe-
less, there was a slight increase in the show of samples
compared with Monday last. Notwithstanding that the
attendance of millers and others was tolerably good. the
demand for all kinds of wheat of home produce was in a
very sluggish state, at prices barely equal to those obtained
on Monday last. There were inquiries for forward delivery
parcels, but the firmness of the growers prevented business.
'With foreign wheat we were tolerably well, but not to
say heavily supplied. A few parcels changed hands for
shipment to the continent at full quotations, but for home
use very little was doing, at barely late rates.
Since our last, twenty vessels have arrived off the coast
with wheat, from the westward, and the cargoes have sold
at full quotations.
The supp:y of both English and foreign barley was
small. All kinds were in but moderate request. In prices,
no change took place.
We had a fair inquiry for malt at late currencies.
The inquiry for beans was less active, owing to the in-
ward arrivals. In prices, no change took place.
Peas met a slow inquiry, on former terms.
The flour trade was tolerably firm, at late figures. The
supply of both English and foreign was very moderate.
