MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)
CORN-EXCHANGE-MONDAY.
The accounts received this morning, horn various
Parts of the country, state that harvest work is progress•
ing rapidly, wader the most favourable auspices. The
Oeuntry markets, held on Saturday, were mostly very
inac:ive fcr most articles of grain, the prices of which
bad a downward tendency. Oar continental advices
state that Wheat has given way in the French and Bel-
gian markets. Up the Baltic purchases have been made
to some extort for immediate shipment, but at low
prices. Letters from New York state that the Flour
and grain trade was:active at improved quotations. The
arrivals of English grain for our market last week were
very small. From abroad, we received, 8,408 quarters
of Wheat; 5,792 do. of Barley; 26,207 do. of Oats; 1,240
do. of ltye; 913 do. of Beans; 1,155 do. of Peas; 10
ditto of Tares; 6,926 do. of Linseed; 82 do. of Rape-
Seed; 63 do.lof sundry seeds; and 70 sacks of Flour.
An unusually large quantity of new English Wheat—
even the time of year considered—was received fresh up
to this morning's market, it having amounted to 3,800
'quarters, 2,000 being from Essex, the remainder chiefly
front Kent. The quality of the samples was unusually
good, and some of the Wheats weighed 641bs per bushel.
The attendance of buyers was tolerably extensive; yet
a& the supply was unexpectedly large, the demand for all
descriptions ruled extremely heavy, at a decline in the
quotations of Monday last of from 2s to 3s per quarter,
at which very little progress was made in sales, a large
Portion of the supply remaining unsold at the conclusion
of business. Scarcely any old Wheat was on show, and
the currencies must be considered nominal. The
quantity of Foreign Wheat on show was not
larger ; nevertheless the sale for that article
vas heavy in the extreme, and most kinds
gave way in value quite 2s. per quarter. At
that decline very few transactions were reported. In
floating cargoes we have heard of no sales, and some of
the importers were compelled to land in bond. Only
about one hundred quarters of new English Barley were
on the market, and which sold at last week's prices.
Inferior foreign—the supply of which was tolerably ex-
tensive—ruled heavy at a fall of is per quarter. The
show of MAC samples was on the increase. Really
fine qualities were held at extreme currencies; but the
middling and inferior kinds had a downward tendency.
The brewers are but moderately stocked. Very few home-
grown o.lts wero on the market, but we had a large
quantity of foreign offering. The Oat trade was very
11,1111, at 6d to is per quarter less money. The sale for
ana was in a very sluggish state, at Is per quarter de-
cline. In Peas, next to nothing was doing, yet the quo-
tations of last week were mostly supported. Indian
t,
rn, Kland Flour, were the turn in favour of the
buyers, with a very dull inquiry.

Fair average arrivals of foreign stock have taken place
into the port of London since Monday last, notwith-
standing the comparatively low prices ruling in this
Inarket. The total suppy has amounted to 4,987 head.
At the corresponding period in 1847 we received 5,003,
and at the same time, in 1848, 5,127 head; but we must
observe that the quality and weight of the stock now at
hand are very superior to those of former seasons, hence
the actual weight of meat is still increasing.

At the northern outports, about 1,200 head of foreign
Mock have been landed, chiefly from Rotterdam. The
arrivals at Southampton from Spain and Portugal have
amounted to about 80 Oxen, in excllent condition.
About 40 of the latter were on sale here to-day ; and
the supply from Holland was tolerably extensive. From
Cork, 20 Oxen, 100 Sheep, and 42 Calves have arrived
direct by sea, for this market. Fresh up for this morn-
ing's market, the receipts of home-fed beasts were large
for the time of year, and of fair average quality. Not-
withstanding that the dead markets were very moderately
Supplied, and the attendance of buyers was tolerably
good. The Beef trade ruled exceedingly heavy, at
decline in the quotations paid on Monday last of quite
2d per 81bs., and at which a clearance was not effected.
The highest figure for the best sorts was 3s 84 per 81bs.
The Supply of beasts from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire,
and Northamptonshire amounted to about 1,000 short
clns• from Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridge-
Sh;,ir,e:9oo Scots and Shorthorns; from the western and
r,:utatid counties, 600 Herefords, Runts, Devons, &c.;
fnin other parts of England, 700 of various breeds, and
f t c'
'r°ta Scotland, 190 horned and polled Scots. There was
a further increase in the supply of Sheep, which, indeed,
w
as the lagest exhibited on any previous day during the
Whole of
the present year. The butchers purchased
cautiously; hence, the mutton trade was in a very inac-
tiveT state, and prices receded from those of this day
t() nalght about 2d per 81bs. The very primest old
119wns, the inumber of which was small compared
with the aggregate supply, sold at 3s 101 per 81bs.
The general quality of the supply of Lambs on offer was
indifferent. The total number exceeded the wants of the
buyers. Prime Down qualities were, however, mostly
disposed of, at about stationary prices, viz , from 4s 10d
to 5s per Sibs, but all other breeds were somewhat lower
to purchase. We had a full average supply of Calves in
the markets. For all descriptions of Veal the demand
was in a very depressed state, and prices ruled 24 per
81bs lower. The sale for Pigs—the number of which
Was but moderate—ruled heavy, at unaltered currencies.
