CORN EXCHANGE.

The supplies of wheat on sale in most of the country
markets held on Saturday were but moderate ; neverthe-
less, the demand for all kinds ruled heavy at drooping
prices. There was a moderate inquiry for grinding barley
at full currencies. Oats, beans, and peas were held on
former terms ; but other articles were neglected'.

Our latest advices from New York state that flour was
dull in sale at drooping prices. The business doing in
most of the continental markets on English account is by

no means extensive.

Very limited supplies of English grain were received
fresh up to our market last week. The imports of foreign
produce amounted to 22,870 quarters of wheat, 1,735
barley, 15,684 oats, 492 beans, 70 peas, 15 tares, 7,223
linseed, 327 rapeseed, 47 sundry seeds, 1,171 sacks and 7,163-
barrels of flour.

Compared with Monday last the receipts of English
wheat fresh up to this morning's market, coastwise from
Essex and Kent, were on the increase ; yet they were
small, even the time of year considered. By land carriage
tEe arrivals were limited. Oa the whole the attendance
of buyers was good, and we had a fair inquiry for really
fine %;vheat, at last week's currency. Low and middling
qualities moved off slowly, and the quotations were mostly
ls. per quarter beneath the currencies of this day sen'-
night.

1 For forward delivery next to nothing was doing.
We were again-Well supplied with foreign wheat, espe-
cially from the near continental ports. Good heavy quali-
ties changed. hands to a fair extent, at full quotations.
Few parcels were dull, and rather in favour of buyers.
The few floating cargoes reported off the coast were offer-
ing on rather easier terms. The demand for them was
heavy.
The supply of barley was small. Grinding parcels were
firm, at full prices. All other kinds were dull, and nomi-
nal in value.
, There was very little doing in malt, on former terms.
Oats, the supply of which was moderate, moved off
steadily, but we have no change to notice in prices.
Beans met a slow inquiry, on former terms.
The demand for peas was wholly in retail, at late rates.
The sale for flour ruled dull, at barely last week's quo-
tations.
The supply of foreign was good.
