CORN EXCHANGE.—(MON-brl—ifold,
By land carriage the arrival of Eng b
lish Wheat-at 4
market last week was slightly on the increase, s of
supply, coastwise, was again very limited. frhloi#
other articles of home produce was small. IV" otl4ll,
5,000 quarters of Oats came to hand from 6chd k
From Ireland only a few quarters of Malt reeed, 9
The imports from abroad were tolerable gee 11,91

sundry seeds, and 3,060 sacks of Flour—the latttitegt
from France. The Danish war is likely te,„'-‘lOll,l
with the arrivals of grain from the Bellw ie. ,i
the next two or three weeks, but a change 16',
wind will, doubtless, bring into port a tli
number of grain vessels at this time en fri

Fresh up to this morning's market, the supPIYI,
lish Wheat was somewhat on the increase, e,7" i
with that received for some time past; and ten 0
and Kent stands were tolerably well tilled with s' pipt
of both red and white. The general qualitY,' 'll
Wheats, both old and new, was much improve('
if,,,
attendance of both town and country buyers being ilV;i
limited, the demand for all kinds of Wheat of hot etifl
duce was in a very sluggish state, at prices betel} /t
to those paid on Monday last, and a total clear: Itilfor
the supply was with difficulty effected. The Va.' 1 Olif
foreign Wheat on offer was again extensive. .4', ?) rot
of the leading millers well supplied theraseitt ti?,
week, there was very little disposition shown ,ifo
chase this article; hence, the trade ruled be' Wei
in most transactions a fall in the currencies of b Ai
quarter. In floating cargoes exceedingly little o,p
was transacted. Most qualities were offering et oill
quarter less money without finding buyers. The t fell P
since the returns were made up on SaturdaY e ()If,'
have not been large. We had:a very moderate et*
Barley on offer. Fine malting qualities sold fr' pi
very full prices. Grinding and distilling sorts sell fl,
last week's quotations. There was a fair Mill fro`,
most kinds of Malt, especially Chevalier sot f td;
fully last Monday's prices. The supply on °r d, if 0
very moderate. The supply of Oats was not ' ;
fully equal to the wants of the buyers'
the whole, the Oat trade was steady, at about lastsi 1
currencies. Scarcely any Oats were on sale from
oirl;
Beans were in moderate supply, and sluggish nig Iro
late rates. White Peas ruled steady. All othetthei.F
were a slow sale. Indian Corn and Meal were
440 a
very full prices. The top price of Flour was
2801bs. The demand was far from active.
