MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN-EXC", LIT.:iiE-WEDNESDAY
A very cat English Wheat was again on
offer in to-day's = Oa the whole, the demand was
in a sluggish state.:,.. ny.,, descriptions, yet Monday's quo-
tations were fairly F.: rl., red. The quality of the samples
was by no means ti:-;.-rate. The imports of Wheat
from abroad, have an,.•:mted to only 5,560 quarters. This
morning, the show of samples was comparatively small, and
holders evinced more firmness in their demands. In
prices, we have no change to report. No English Barley
at market ; but the supply of foreign was somewhat on
the increase. All kinds met a dull inquiry, at late rates.i,,ln
Malt, so little was doing that the quotations were almost
nominal. Oats, Beans, Peas, Indian Corn, and Flour as.last
advised.

TUESDAY.-- Havinb, in our preliminary notice on Monday,
referred to the various details in connexion with the ar•
rangements for the week, it will be sufficient to state here
that so far as the meeting has proceeded, they have been
efficiently carried out. `• e wish it was in our power to add
that the meeting commenced under favourable circutn-
stances ; the reverse was the case, the heavy and continuous
rain in the morning having induced hundreds, who would
otherwise have teen present, to reserve themselves for the
" great" day. The weather cleared up about noon, and
was fine for three or four hours, but the mischief was done,
and the company, both in number and rank, was the thin-
nest we ever saw en the first day of a summer meeting on
Epsom Downs. The sport left nothing to complain of as to
quantity; the Craven Stakes, it is true, from the knowledge
that Collingwoo,l and Black Eagle would " enter the lists,"
was the poorest we have seen for many years, but all the sell-
ing stakes and plates produced capital entries, insuring, with
the aid of heats, an abundance of racing each day. The Craven
Stakes, bad as was the entry, and deprived of much of its interest
by thenon-appearance of .C;ollingwood, produced a very ex-
citing contest between Black Eagle and Swordplayer, the
final strag6le being so close that the judge pronounced it a
dead heat. The Woodcote, although many of the horses
were dark, did not lead to any extensive speculation ; it was
won in a canter by a smart filly of Mr. Gratwicke's, a stable
companion of the 'Juke of Richmond's Officious, the winner
of the Two Yrs Old Stakes at Northampton, Bath, and Ep-
som Spring Meeting. The match was interesting only to the
owners, and the heats, most of which were run in a heavy
fall of rain, may be left t.s speak for themselves. No unne-
cessary delay took place in running them off, and the list was
got through shortly before seven o'clock.

Gst 8:b ; four, Bst 101 b ; live, 9st 41b ; six and aged, Ost
