MARKET NE WS.-(YESTERDAY.)
CORN EXCHANGE.
The arrivals of English Wheat since Monday have been
tolerably good, viz., 5,350 quarters, and the stands were
fairly supplied with samples. The weather being extremely
favourable for the growing crops, and the attendance of
buyers small, the demand was heavy, and, in some instances.
the prices had a downward tendency. Upwards of 22.000
quarters of foreign Wheat have came in this week. That
article was in heavy request. and offered at a decline of from
Is to 2s per quarter. The amount of business doing
was very small. For export, no sales took place.
The show of Barley was small, yet the trade was heavy, at
barely late rates. In Malt next to nothing was doing; but
prices were mostly supported. With Oats we were scantily
supplied. All kinds moved off slowly at late currencies.
Beans, Peas, Indian Corn, and Flour, sera exceedingly in-
, active.

Comparatively speaking, the supply of Beasts on sale here
was small, and of middling quality, owing to which, and
the increased attendance of buyers—some of whom were
Irons France, and who purchased about sixty head of stock
for immediate shipment—the Beef trade was brisk, at $ fur
