MARKET INEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN-EXCHANGE-(MONDAY.)
In the leading country markets, held on Saturday,
fine Wheats were mostly disposed f at full prices, but
the middling and inferior kinds had a downward ten-
dency. No change worthy of notice took place in the
value of spring corn. Later advices from New York
state that several large parcels of Flour had been for-
warded to England on owners' account. Very few
speculative purchases had taken place in any article.
Coastwise, as well as by land carriage, a fair average
quantity of English Wheat, Malt, and Flour came to
hand last week. From Ireland and Scotland very little
Grain reached us. The imports from abroad amounted
to 16,830 quarters of Wheat, 3,8,5 ditto of Barley,
13,907 ditto of Oats, 247 ditto of Beans, 1,616 ditto of
Peas, 61 do. of Tares, 1,030 do. of Linseed, 438 do. of Rape-
seed, 439 do. or sundry seeds, and 3,098 sacks of Flour.
The quantity of Wheat received fresh up to this morn-
ing's market, horn Essex was small coastwise and by
land carriage. From Kent the supply was somewhat on
the increase, but that from Lincolnshire. Cambridge-
shire, Etc., was trifling. As a large portion of last
week's receipts went direct into the hands of the millers,
the show of samples of both red and white was rather
limited, owing to which, and to some of the leading
millers being short of stock, the demand for most de-
fcriptions ruled steady, at prices fully equal to those ob-
tained on Monday last, and at which a good clearance
was readily e ffected. Several offers for forward ship-
ment came to hand. With foreign Wheat we were to-
lerably well, but nut to say heavily supplied, consider-
ing the extent of imports last week. Fine dry qualities,
fit for mixing with new English, sold readily at
very full prices. In the middling and inferior kinds
only a limited business was transacted at late rates.
The quantity of English Barley on show was trifling;
that of foreign very moderate. Fine malting and grind-
ing parcels moved off freely at fully last week's curren-
cies. In other kinds of Barley only a limited business
was transacted at late rates. We were somewhat ex-
tensively supplied with old Malt, but the quantity of new
was small. The former description was a slow inquiry,
at barely stationary prices; but the latter was in good
request at fully previous rates. The transactions in
Oats were by no means large. Good sound
Corn was firm. In damp qualities very few trans-
actions were reported. No change was observed in prices.
The sale for Beans was inactive, at last week's curren-
cies. The supply of foreign was very moderate. White
Peas moved off readily, at is per quarter more money.
Grey and maple qualities were quite as dear. Indian
corn and meal were nominal in value. The best Flour
was steady at full prices. Secondary parcels ruled dull,

SEED.
We have to report a steady demand for canary seed,
at a slight improvement in the quotations. All other
Seeds, as well as cakes, are a slow inquiry. The total
imports of linseed, this year, into London and Hull,
have fallen short of those of last season by nearly
200,000 quarters.

Notwithstanding that the importations of foreign
Beasts into London last week were en the increase, the
total arrivals of stock from abroad were small, viz.
3.972 head, being a decrease, compared with those re-
ported on this day se'nnight, of 2,555 head. At the
corresponding period in 1847, we received 5,979, and
at the same time in 1848, 6,795 head.

The quality of the foreign stock at hand since our last
report, especially the Pigs, has been by no means first
race. No supplies have reached us direct by sea from
Ireland. The number of foreign Beasts in to•day's
market was seasonably good; but that of Sheep and
Calves was comparatively small, and of middling quality.
The arrivals of home led Beasts fresh up this morning
were somewhat on the increase, and there was a decided
improvement in their general condition. The weather
being favourable for slaughtering, and the attendance
of buyers large, the Beef trade was somewhat active, at
an advance in the quotations realised on Monday last Of
quite 2d per 81bs. The very primest Scots sold without
difficulty at 4s per 81bs. Prior to the close of business,
nearly the whole of the stock bad been disposed of. From
Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northamptonshire, we
received about 2,000 short horns; from the eastern,
western, and midland districts, 600 Herefords, Runts,
Devons, Sects, Sze.; and from the other parts of England,
400 of various kinds. The remainder of the supply was
derived from abroad and the neighbourhood of London.
Notwithstanding, that the supply of sheep was larger
than that exhitsited on this day se'nnight, we had a good
inquiry for all kinds, at a❑ improvement in prices of 2d.
per 81bs. The best old Downs produced 4s 2d, and the
best half-breds, 4s per 81bs. Very few Calves were on
off-ir. The Veal trade ruled active, and prices were
quite 4d per Blbs higher than last week. There was a
better sale fur Pigs, the value of which had an upwrad
tendency. Prime small Porkers produced 3s 10d to 4s 2d
per 81bs.

Since last report, the arrivals of country killed Meat
up to these markets have considerably fallen off, yet 1130
supplies on offer slaughtered in the metropolis have been
tolerably extensive and of good quality. For all kindof meat the demand has ruled steady, at a general ad-
vance in the quotations of quite 2d per 81bs, and at
which fair clearances have beta effected. About 11,00,1,1
carcasses of foreign meat have been disposed of, an'
twelve baskets of Beef have come to hand from Haul-
burgh.

selected qualities of New Hops still command
ready sale, at fully last week's quotations. All other
kinds are a slow inquiry, at barely late rates. The duty
for Kent is not yet announced. The market is by no
means heavily supplied. Prfsent rates as under
New Mid and East Kent pockets, per cwt., 81 to 101;

bales from Ghent.

TALLOW.
Although the delivery of Tallow last week was 01111
2,042 casks, the demand to-day is steady, and, in souls
instances, a trifling advance has been paid for fine quf
lay. P. Y. C., on the spot, is quoted at 37s to 37a 3u
pet
and for delivery up to the end of the year, 36s 9d PL
