MARKET NEWS.--(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXC HAN GE-(MONDAY.)

Up to our market, last week, the arrivals of Wheat of
home produce were on the increase, but by no means
good, the time of year considered. Those of English
Barley, Malt, Oats, and indeed all other articles, were on
a very limited scale. From Ireland, a few cargoes of
Wheat and Flour reached us ; but from Scotland
scarcely any grain came to hand. As to the imports
t'-om inroad, the were immense, they having excee. ed
78.000 quarters of WI. eat. 21.000 ditto of Barley, 36.000
ditto of Oats. 6.000 ditto ot Indian Corn, and 50,000
barrels of Flout ; and, ju,!gieg from the number of
ves.-els which passed th- S,,und on Friday, a large tie
portation of grain way be expected this week.
Fresh up to day, a lair average quanti y
Erglish Wheat came to hand, in, fur the most
part, good condition. Still, however, the show
of samples of that article was by no means exten-
sive. Notwithstanding that several somewhat unfavour-
able accounts arrived hither this morning from various
parts of England, relative to the prevalence of blight in
the Wheat, and the spread of the disease in the Potato
crop, and the attendance of both town and country
buyers was good, the demand for all kinds ot English
W heat was exceedingly heavy, at a decline in the quo-
tations paid on Monday last of from 4s to 5s per quar-
ter, and yet a total clearance was not effected. The
quantity of Foreign Wheat brought forward was again,
very great, and of improved quality; hence the sale for
all descriptions was excessively dull, and the currencies
suffered a fall of from 3s to 4s per quarter. The sales did
net exceed 3.000 quarters, chiefly for inland consumption.
No English Barley at Market, but we hao a large supply
of foreign on the stands. The trade was, therefore, very
dull, at a fall in the rates paid on this day se'nnight of
2s per quarter. Selected samples of Malt supported
previous currencies, but the middling and inferior kinds,
though we cannot call them cheaper, were a
mere drag. Notwithstanding the immense supply of
foreign Oats, the demand for them, owing to
most of the dealers being very short of stock,
was tolerably steady, at about stationary prices.
The reports relative to the crop of Beans being urn
favourable, the sale was firm, at is to 2s per quarter
more money. A few samples ot new Peas were ot:
offer to-day ; but the trade was heavy, at late rates.
In Indian Corn next to nothing was doing ; but prices
were mostly supported. The Flour trade was very dal;,
and when sales were pressed, lower prices were accepted,
especially for barrelled qualities.
