dict the statement, and to assert not only that nothing
of the kind has occurred, and that no epidemic whatever
prevails in this locality, notwithstanding the large influx
of strangers by recent arrivals. No vessel has been sub-

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-MONDAY.

The arrivals of English Wheat and Malt up to our
market last week were somewhat on the increase—those
of all ether articles of grain of home produce small. From
Scotland very little Corn came to hand, but upwards of
10,000 quarters of Oats, of the present year's growth.
were received from Ireland. The imports from abroad
were comparatively small. viz., 7,544 quarters of Wheat,
5,285 ditto of Oats, 1,983 ditto of Beans, 1,960 ditto of
Peas, and only 496 barrels of Flour. No foreign Barley
came to hand. The receipts of English Wheat fresh up
to-day, by land-carriage, were small, but those coastwise
were somewhat extensive, and of very inferior quality.
Oa tho whole the stands were well filled with
samples of both Red and White ; but as
the condition—arising from the prevailing damp
weather—was bad, the demand was in a very
sluggish state at a decline in the quotations paid on
Monday last of from 2s to 3s per quarter, and at which
a clearance was not effected. We attribute the fall in
value to day more to the dampness of the parcels then
to any other circumstance. With foreign Wheat we
were tolerably well, but not to say heavily, supplied.
Selected qualities of both red and whi►e were a slow
sale at is per quarter less money, while all other kinds
were very dull, and quite 2s per quarter cheaper. Very
few parcels changed hands for export to the continent.
Notwithstanding the show of Barley: was small, that
article met a very slow inquiry. The best qualities
were mostly disposed of at last weeks prices ; but all
other kinds suffered a decline of Is. per quarter. The
supply of Malt being more than adequate to meet the
wants of the buyers, the trade was in a very depressed
state, at a fall in value of quite 6d per quarter, and
several small parcels remained even at tne close of busi-
ness. There were very few Oats on offer. Selected
parcels of English and Irish were very firm, at full
rates of currency. I❑ all other kinds a moderate
amount of business was doing, at late rates. Beans,
thoagh a moderate supply, moved off slowly, at but
little alteration in value. The sale for Peas was slow ;
nevertheless, previous rates were well supported. In-
dian Corn and Meal were rather dull. The Flour trade
was slow, at barely stationary prices.

A slight improvement has taken place in the arrivals of
foreign Beasts and Calves, but the condition of the. Sheep,
Lambs, and Pigs, has again proved very inferior. At
the outports, about 1,500 head of stock have been landed,
chiefly from Holland. The annexed statement shows
the importations of foreign stock from the sth of January
to the 10th of October, during the present and the two
preceeding years :

The above shows an increase this year over 1845 of
900, and over 1846 of upwards of 100 per cent. The
supply of foreign stock here to-day was by no means so
heavy as on some previous market days ; nevertheless,
it was seasonably large, viz., 520 Oxen and cows, 1,444
Sheep, and 49 Calves, nearly the whole of which were
beneath the middle quality. Still, however, a good
clearance was effected at full prices. From our own
grazing districts the Bullock droves fresh up this morn-
ing were considerably less than those reported on this
day se'nnight, yet not the slightest improvement was
noticed in their weight or condition. Notwithstanding
the unfavourable state of the weather for slaughtering
the Beef trade, arising from the large attendance of
both town andcountry buyers, was very firm, and, in some
instances, the quotations had an upward tendency. A few
of the very primest Scots sold at 5s per 8lbs; but
the more general figure for the best Beef was 4s.
10d per Blbs. At the close of the market scarcely any
of the beasts remained unsold. The arrivals of beasts
by drift and railway from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire,
Northamptonshire, and Warwickshire, consisted of about
1,400 short horns and runts; from the eastern, western,
and midland districts, 800 Herefords, runts, Devons,
Irish beasts, &c.; from other parts of England, 800 of
various breeds; and from Scotland, 120 horned and
polled Scots; the remainder of the supply being derived
from abroad and the neighbourhood of London. The
supply of Sheep was again on the decrease; hence the
Mutton trade was firm, and, in some instances, the best
old Downs, which were unusually scarce, sold at 5s 2d
per 81bs, being a slight advance in the currencies ob-
tained on Monday last. In all other breeds of Sheep a
good business was doing, at very full prices. The supply
of Calves was by no means large, yet the Veal trade
was in a sluggish state, at barely stationary prices.
Prime small Porkers were in steady request, at fully
previous quotations; otherwise the demand was by no
means active at late rates. _ _

The arrivals of country-killed meat up to these mar-
kets since Monday last have been again on the increase,
but of very inferior quality. With meat slaughtered in
London we have been tolerably well, though not to say
heavily, supplied. Prime Beet has moved off steadily,
at, in some instances, an advance of 2d per 81bs, while
the value of Mutton and prime Pork has been well sup-
ported, otherwise the demand has been in a sluggish
state; yet we have no material alteration to notice in
the quotations. About 1,100 carcasses of foreign meat
have been on offer.

BOROUGH SOP MARKET.
The best parcels of new Hops are in moderate re-
quest, at prices about equal to those obtained last week;
but all other kinds—the supply of which pressing for
sale is somewhat heavy—may be purchased at a decline
of fully 2s per cwt. Yearling and old Hops are a mere
drug. New •Hops—Sussex pockets, 21 15s to 3/ 6s;
