MARKET IN WS.-(YESTERDAY4

CORN EXCHANGE.
Since Monday the arrivals of English Wheat for our
market have been on a very limited scale; and the show of
samples here to-day was small. All kinds, owing to the large
attendance of buyers, moved off steadily, at fully the
ers to
advance in the quotations. Upwards of 12,000 quartof
Foreign Wheat have come to hand this week, yet the trade
was firm, and selected parcels produced is per quarter mode
money, chiefly for export to France. The imports of Barley
have been large, nevertheless the trade was very firm at ex•
treme currencies. The transactions in Malt were trifling,, at
about stationary prices. Nearly 30,000 quarters of Forth
Oats were on show. The best qualities sold freelv o
; other
kinds slowly at late rates. In Beans, Peas, and /lour n
alteration took place.
