MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-MONDAY.

Coastwise, as well as by land carriage and sample,
the arrival of all articles of home produce up to our
market, last week, were on a very moderate scale. From
Ireland, the receipts of Oats was on the increase, larger,
indeed, than we have had occasion to report for some
months past ; but from Scotland, scarcely any grain
came to hand. The aggregate imports from abroad and
our colonies were moderately extensive, viz.. 30,654
quarters of Wheat, 3,103 quarters of Barley ; 4,506
quarters of Oats ; 1,430 quarters of Beans ; 673 quarters
of Peas ; and 2,100 quarters of Indian Corn ; as, also,
8,243 barrels and 554 sacks of Flour. Fresh up to- day,
the arrivals of English Wheat were on a full average
scale from Essex and Kent, but very moderate from
Suffolk and Cambridgeshire. On the whole, the
stands were fairly filled with samples of both red
and white. In the early part of the morning—arisiug
from the large number of country buyers in attendance
—the trade was very cetive, and in some instances most
qualities of Wheat of home produce sold at an advance
in the quotations paid on Monday last of 3s per quarter.
Subsequently, however, the demand was not so brisk ;
yet the market closed firmly at 2s per quarter above
last week's figures, and a good clearance was effected.
Notwithstanding the show of Foreign Wheat was some-
what extensive, that article, from the light stocks held
by the principal millers, was firm, at a rise in
value of from is to 2s per quarter. For export,
scarcely any business was transacted. With
Barley we were but moderately supplied. Selected
parcels, fit for malting purposes, moved off steadily, at
full rates of currency. In grinding and distilling sorts
very little business was transacted, and prices of such
had a downward tendency. The supply of Malt on
offer was small. Chevalier qualities were quite as dear.
Otherwise the trade was dull, at barely stationary
prices. Although the supply of Oats was small, the
trade was in a very inactive state, at last week's quota-
tions. Boiling Peas moved off steadily; other kinds
slowly, at late rates. Indian Corn, Meal, and Rye
Flour were again dull, but not cheaper. There was a
better sale for Flour. Town-made and country marks
were quite as dear, and foreign qualities were is per
barrel higher.

At the outports the arrival'S: have been tolerably exten-
sive, or about 2,200 head, chiefly from Holland and
Germany ; but the quality and condition have been
again very inferior, especially as respects those of the
Dutch Sheep. The supply of foreign stock on sale to-
day was good, but not so heavy as on some previous
Mondays, it consisting of about 400 Beasts, 2,100 Sheep,
ZT Calves, and 5 rigs. In the general quality of the
Beasts and Calves a slight improvement was noticed ; but
that of the Sheep and Pigs was very inferior. From
our own grazing districts, the fresh arrivals of Beasts
-were considerably on the increase ; but a large portion
of them was much out of condition. Although the
attendance of both town and country buyers was good,
the Beef trade was in a very inactive state, at a decline
in the quotations paid on this day se'nnight, of from 2d
to 4d per Sibs, and a clearance of the inferior breeds was
not effected. The highest general figures for the best
Scots ruled from 4s 6d to 4s 8d per 81bs. The Bullock
droves from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, Northampton-
shire, &c., comprised about 1,700 short horns ; from the
eastern, western, and midland counties, 800 Herefords,
runts, Devons, &c. ; from other parts of England, 900 of
various breeds ; and from Scotland, 120 horned and
polled Scots. The remainder of the supply was derived
from abroad and the neighbourhood of the metropolis.
With Sheep we were heavily supplied, the time of year
considered, owing to2whicb, and the dullness of the trade
in the dead markets, all breeds moved off slo:r iy, at a
fail in last week's currencies of 2d per Sibs. The very
primest old Downs sold at 55 per 81bs. Several large
droves were not disposed of at the cioso of business.
Notwithstanding the supply of Calves was small, the
Veal trade was in a sluggish Mate, at but little, if any,
variation in prices. Prieto small Pigs moved off freely,
at fully previous rates. Otherwise the Pork trade was
in a very inactive state, yet prices were supportec:.

Compared with those in many preceding weeks, the
arrivals of country. killed Meat up to these markets since
Monday last have been somewhat extensive, but by no
means large, the time of year considered. The supplies
on offer slaughtered in the metropolis have been on the
increase, but of very middling quality. Generally
speaking, the demand has ruled somewhat inactive, yet
prices have been tolerably well supported. About 1,100
carcases of Foreign Meat have appeared on sale.

BOROUGH AND SPITALI'IELDS.
The supplies of Potatoes on sale in these markets are
by no means extensive, and a good business is doing at
very full prices. The general quality of the supplies is
excellent. Lincolnshire and Cambridgeshire Regents,
90s to 100 s ; ditto Shaws, 902 to 95s ; York Regents,
105 s to 120 s; ditto Shaws, 100 s to 105 s ; Kent Whites,
100 s to 110 s; ditto Kidneys, 100 s to 110 s ; ditto Blues,
100 s to 110 s.

BOROUGH HOP IVIAIMET.
There is a moderate inquiry for the best New Kent
Hops, at prices about equal to those paid last week;
but the middling and interior kinds are very dull, and
somewhat lower. The supply on offer far exceeds the
wants of the trade. In Yearling and old Hops so
little is doing that the quotations are almost nominal.
The duty is called 200,000/. New Hops, per cwt.:—
Sussex Pockets, 2116 s to 3165; Weald of Kent, ditto,
31 to 31 10s; Mid. and East Kent, ditto, 3/ 3s to 5l ss,

WOOL.
The imports of Wool during the past week have been
very moderate, viz,, 98 bales from the Cape, 20 ditto
from Monte Video, 29 ditto from Hamburgh, 300 ditto
from Launceston, and 200 ditto from Adelaide. The
public sales are still progressing heavily. Only a por-
tion of the Wool brought forward has found buyers, at a
reduction in prices of 2d per lb. In the private market
next to nothing is doing, and prices have a downward
tendency.

TALLOW.
During the past week this market has been in a very
inactive state, and large buyers have purchased on
lower terms. The scarcity of money is operating very
injuriously to the trade. P.Y.C. on the spot is 44s to
453 3d, and for delivery 43s 6d to 44s 3d per cwt.
Home-make, 45s 6d to 46s net cash; rough fat, 2s 7id
per Blbs.

THE RECENT CASE OF HIGHWAY ROBBERY AND
MURDER IN WESTNINSTER.—This morning, at eleven
o'clock, Mr. Bedford, the coroner for Westminster, re-
sumed, at the Grosvenor Arms, Kensington place, West-
minster, tho inquiry touching the death of Mr. John
Bellchambers, aged 57, an engineer, lately residing at
44, Wilton-street, Vincent-square, the unfortunate gen-
tleman who, it will be remembered, was robbed and
brutally ill-used, from the effects of which he died on the
II th ult. Inspector Taylor, of the B division, stated
that the case was still in the hands of the police, and
was as yet incomplete ; and he should, therefore, re-
quest the coroner to again adjourn the inquiry for at
least a week, especially as there were two fresh parties
in custody, and remanded to Saturday next. Mr. Bed-
ford assented, and the inquest Was adjourned for smother
week.
