MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.

CORN EXCHANGE.—MONDAY.
On the whole a full average supply of English Wheat
arrived in the port of London last week, while that of
aßiairolethyewr
articlesasext of ensilethat of Malt good, but that of
home produce was small. Scarcely
any grain came to hand from either Ireland or Scotland.
The imports from abroad consisted of 3,905 quarters of
Wheat, 25,838 ditto of Oats, 582 ditto of Beans, 2,108
ditto of Peas, and 453 sacks of Flour. From Kent a
good supply of English Wheat came fresh to hand this
morning, but the receipts from Essex, Cambridgeshire,
&c., were small. Comparatively speaking, the stands
were moderately supplied with samples of both red
and white, the quality of which, from the favour-
able change in the weather, was somewhat im-
proayseids.

_
small, selected parcels of white commanded a very
steady demand, and, in some few instances, the quota-
tions ruled rather higher than on this day se'nnight.
In the middling and inferior kinds a fair amount of
business was transacted, at fully last week's prices. At
the close of the market a good clearance was effected.
For fine dry qualities of Foreign Wheat—the quantity
of which on offer has very small—we had a steady in-
quiry at extreme rates. Otherwise the Foreign
Wheat trade was heavy, but we have no
depression to notice in value. The supply of
Barley being large, and more than adeqnate to meet
the wants of the buyers, the trade was very dull,
at a decline in the quotations of from is to 2s
per quarter, at which very little progress could be made
in sales. With Malt we were well supplied. Fine Ware
parcels were is, all other kinds 2s per quarter cheaper
than on Monday last. Very few English Oats were
brought forward, but the supply of foreign was large.
The best potato qualities were quite as dear, but all other
kinds were 6d yer quarter lower, with a heavy demand.
The show of Besns was not large, yet the trade was in a
sluggish state at barely stationary prices. In Peas very
few sales took place. The quotations, however, under-

The imports of live stock from abroad, into London,
last week were as under :
From whence. Beasts. Sheep. Lambs. Calves

Total .. 311 ... 1,971 ... 51 125
Very few arrivals have taken place at the outports, and
it is generally considered, as the navigation in Holland
will be shortly closed, that the importations during the
next three or four months will be very small. With
Foreign Stock we were very scantily supplied to day,
there being only about 160 Beasts, 700 Sheep, and 20
Calves on offer. The quality, generally speaking, NY!'
better than we have observed for some time past. ThiS
being what is termed a holiday market the supply of
home-fed Beasts was small, but there were about 800
head more on sale than at the corre.ponding period in
1146. Although the attendance of buyers was by no
means large, the Beef trade ruled steady, and last
week's prices were supported in every instance. Prime
Scots soli without difficulty at from 4s 10d to 5s per
Sibs. At least two thirds of the Beasts were beneath
the middle quality. The droves from the northern
grsaing districts consisted of about 900 short llorns.
From the western and midland counties we received 100
Herefords, runts, Devons, and Irish Beasts ; from other
parts of England, 500 of various breeds ; and from Scot-
land 120 horned and polled Scots. There was i very
moderate number of Sheep offering, and the quality of
that description of stock was by no means first-rate.
Prime old Downs, which were very scarce, moved off
freely, at the extreme rates paid on Monday last, or front
5s 2d to 5s 4d per 81bs. Otherwise the Mutton trade
was steady, at full prices. Scarcely any Calves were in
the market, and the Veal trade was firm at full prices.
Prime small Porkers moved off readily at extreme cur•
rencies. Other kinds of Pork were quite as dear. AO
the close of the market a good clearance was effected.

During nearly the whole of the past week these
markets have been very heavily supplied with both tows
and couatry killed meat, the quality of which has
proved remarkably fine. Still, however, the general
demand must be considered active ; and really prime
Beef has sold at unusually high prices, the value of other,
kinds of meat being well supported. The coldness 01
the weather having induced the butchers to purchase
extensively, good clearances have been effected. Scarab'
any foreign meat has appeared on sale.

BOROUGH AND SPITALPIIILDS.

A somewhat increased supply of potatoes has sr'
rived coastwise and by railway during the past week"
and from Holland and Germany, about 300 tons bare
reached us. On the whole, the trade is very firm. "lc
prices are well supported in every instance.—Vr
Regent's, 120 s to 140 s ; ditto, Shaw's, 110 s to 10"
Scotch Reds, 110 s to 120 s; ditto, Whites, 100 s to 110111

BOROUGH HOP MARHET.
The best East Kent Hops command a steady sale, AC
the late advance in the quotations. With all other kind.
—the supply of which on offer is not quite so large as 3
was a short time since—an improved business is doing•
at full prices. New Hops: Sussex Pockets, 2116$ to 3160;
Weald of Kent, ditto, 31 to 31 103; Mid and East Kea
ditto, 31 6s to 51 12s per cwt.

WOOL.
The past week's imports of Wool have consisted of
1,200 bales from Sydney, 200-ditto from the Cape, 200
ditto from Hamburgh, and 100 bags from Lisbon. In
the private market a large quantity of Wool is on alert
and the general demand is in a very depressed state, IS
barely stationary prices.
TALLOW.
For present, as well as forward delivery, the demand
is heavy, and prices have a downward tendency.
P. Y. C., on the spot, is quoted at 46s 3d to 46s 6d;
and for delivery during the first three months of nett
year, 44s 9d to 45s 3d per cwt. Town Tallow—the
supply of which is by no means large, for the time of
year—is a slow sale, at 46s 3d to 47s 9d per cwt. Del
cash, and Rough Fat 2s. Sid. per 81bs.

more virulent character there, especially among the
Tartars. This is ascribed to the results of the Ma-
homedan feast, the Kurban-Bairam, where the
Tartars adhere less strictly to the rules of modera-
tion in eating and drinking. In Taurus, where it
had again appeared, recent reports state that it had
almost ceased on the Ist of November.
