MARKET NEWS-(THIS DAY

CORN EXCHANGE--MONDAY.
Last weeks arrivals of English Wheat, Barley, Oats, and
Flour up to our market were on a very moderate scale—
those of Malt, Beans, and Peas trifling. From Scotland only
60 quarters of seeds reached us ; but, from Ireland, upwards
of 7,000 quarters of Oats came to hand. The imports of
foreign Wheat were comparatively mull, but those of Barley
were large—of Oats and Flour tolerably good. The receipts
of Wheat of home produce, fresh up to-day from Essex and
Kent, were considerably less than those reported on this day
se'nnight ; while, by laud carriage amid sample, they were on
a very limited scale, consequently the, bulk of the supply of
that article on offer was the rem sins of Friday's unsold
qualities. Notwithstanding this circumstance we have
to report a very dull sale for• all descripfions, and,
to effect sales, a decline on last week's quotations
of from is to 2s, in some instances 35 per quarter,
was submitted to, and at which amoant of depression a clear-
ance was not effected. This was certa.inly the heaviest mar-
ket for Wheat experienced during the last two months, and
most parties here are of opinion that lower rates may be
looked forward to for most articles. .For export we did not
hear of a high transaction—scarcely- a foreign buyer being in
attendance. We had very little Foreign Wheat on the
stands ; yet the supply was more than adequate
to meet the wants of the millers. All kinds
both red and white met an unusually dull
inquiry, at an abatement on last week's value of from is to
2s per quarter. At that decline some of the holders were
rather anxious sellers. With English Barley we were
scantily supplied ; but the show of foreign was extensive,
and of fair average quality. Owing to the large importa
tions, the Barley trade was exceedingly dull, and the prices
receded is to 2s per quartet•—leaving a large quantity un-
sold at the conclusion of business. Notwithstanding the
quantity of Malt on °film was small, that article ruled
dull, and, in some cases the prices had a downward tendency.
The total supply of Oats, including the foreign receipts, was
good ; yet, as most of the dealers are short of stock, a mode-
rate business was doing, at late rates. All kinds of Beans
were dull, but we can notice no material decline in value.
Peas, for seeds, were held at high rates; but the actual busi-
ness doing was small, at barely stationary prices. In sack
Flour, so little was doing, that prices were almost nominal.
American parcels were Is per barrel lower. Indian Corn was
a mere drug, and might be purchased at Is to 3s per quarter
less money. There will be no market held on Wednesday.

The following imports of live stock took place into London
last week :

From whence. Oxen. Cows. Sheep. Calves
Rotterdain
Nieudiep '
Harlingen
Flushing

Total

Nearly '2BO Oxen and Cows, together with 150 Sheep, have
been landed at Hull, and our of her outports, from Holland.
A marked improvement has taken place in the condition of
the stock imported this year, compared with most former
seasons. We had on sale this morning about 180 Beasts, 90
Sheep, and '2O Calves from abroad, the demand for which was
excessively heavy, on easier terms. The supply of home-
fed Beasts on offer was, the time of year consiaered, by far
the most extensive as to number ever recollected by the
oldest frequenter of the market, while the quality has teen
seldom or never equalled during the month of March. This
circumstance, together with the prevailing fine weather, and
the large arrivals of country-killed bleat up to Newgate and
Leadenhall, produced extreme heaviness in the Beef trade,
at Friday's decline in the quotations of quite 2d per 8 lbs.,
and a large number of really prime Beasts left the market
unsold. To show the state of the demand, we may intimate
that many good Oxen were with difficulty disposed of as low
as 3s 6d per 8 lbs., and, further, that nearly one thcusand
head of Beasts more were on show than at the corresponding
period in 1846. The prices of Beef now range fully 4d, Mut-
ton 4d to 6d, Lamb Gd to Is, Veal 8d to 10d, and Pork 2d to 4d
per Sibs. lower than at the same time last season. From Nor-
folk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we received nearly
1,800 Scots, home-breds, and short-horns; from the northern
districts 300 short-horns; from the western and midland
counties 800 Herefords, runts, Devons, &c. ; from other parts
of England, 500 of various breeds; and from Scotland, 220
horned and polled Scots. Although the supply of Sheep was
not to say extensive, it was more than adequate to meet the
wants of the butchers, who purchased very cautiously, at an
abatement in value of 21 per 8 lbs. The very highest price
for the best old Downs was only 4s 10d per 8 lbs. , and a clear-
ance was not effected. Shorn Sheep were plentiful, and the
relative difference in the currencies between those in and out

of the wool was 8d per Blbs. That is to say, old Downs,
shorn, were not worth more than 4s 2d per Blbs. From the
Isle of Wight, 35 Lambs came fresh to hand per railway,
while the receipts from other quarters are by no means ex-
tensive. The Lamb trade was heavy, at from 5s to 6s per
Blbs.; indeed, in many instances the currencies were almost
nominal. With Calves we were scantily supplied, yet the
Veal trade was dull, at an abatement in the quotations of
from 2d to 4d per Bibs. The Pork trade was exceedingly
inactive, and the rates suffered a decline of 2d per Blbs.

NEWGATE AND IMADENHALL.
Since Monday last the arrivals of Meat from Scotland have
consisted of about 100 carcases of Beef, 80U ditto of Mutton,
and GOO ditto of Pork; while those from various parts of
England have comprised nearly 350 carcases of Beef, 2,800
ditto of Mutton, 30 ditto of Lamb, 120 ditto of Veal, and
3,100 ditto of Pork. The supplies of Meat on sale, killed in
the metropolis, have been tolerably good; but the general
demand has ruled heavy, at drooping currencies. About 100
carcases of foreign Beef, 120 ditto of Mutton, and 10 ditto of
Veal have appeared on sale.

BOROUGH AND SPITALFIELDS.
There is very little business doing here in Potatoes, the
supplies of which are extremely moderate, and last week's
prices are with difficulty supported.
BOROUGH HOP MARICET.
We have to report a very inactive inquiry for all kinds of
Hops, especially for the inferior qualities, but in prices no
alteration can be noticed. The supply on offer is seasonably
good. _ _ _

TALLOW.
There is rather less doing in this market than for some
time past, and prices are with difficulty supported. P. T. C.
on the spot, is selling at 51s per cwt. Pi% forward delivery
a fsir business is doing at 46s 3d to 46s 6d per cwt. Town
Tallow is in fair supply, at 50s to 50s 6d net cash.

OOL.
The imports of Wool, during the week, have been again
very limited, viz., about 600 bales. Fine combing Wools
(English) are in good request, and a trifle dearer. In all
other qualities exceedingly little is doing at barely late rates.
The future prospect of this market is by no means cheering.

DRURY••LANE.--•AIR. BENTON'S BENEFIT.—The
benefit of Mr. Benton, of the free list office, Drur -lane, and
sub-treasurer of the theatre, takes place to-morrow, on
which occasion Miss Rainforth will make her first appear-
ance in the character of Maritana, in IVallace's favourite
opera of that name, and that promising young artiste, Miss
Rebecca Isaacs, will appear for the first time as Laza-
rillo. Spanish Gallantries will follow, with the fascinating
Marietta Baderna as the heroine. Such an attractive bill of
fare would alone be sufficient to secure a good house, but
when we recollect how many there are who, having benefited
by the civility of Mr. Benton, will be but too happy to be
civil to him on his benefit, we feel assured that the house
will be a bumper.
ST. JAMES'S
THEATRE.--ETIIIOPIAN SERENADERS.

—The Ethiopian Serenaders—the original, the most uni-
mitated, because inimitable—still continue their performances
at the St. James's 'Theatre, on the off nights of the French
plays. and with undiminished attraction. We visited the
theatre on Saturday evening, and were delighted with the
performances of these sable minstrels, who can command at
will" a smile or a tear" from their auditors. The house was,
ae it Always is, crowded.

The following statement from Aria's Birmingham

indicates the satisfactory position of the iren,trade:--
happy to learn that there exists no falling off in the l'i
oit of

each quarter, and ,
more particularly might have U 70411
pected from the drooping condition of many other b ()11
combined with the adverse state of the Money Marke7,o3l
the other hand, we are informed that the order-boohe n'tttho
of the first houses are now better filled than they wereijoi
commencement, and the specifications are in the meat insey or
for immediate delivery. That there is no lack of Inutiotter
disposition to invest it where reasonable and secure rewhitll
ration presents, may be gathered from the ease with_Ansti
the various railway calls are paid up, astd the extremr,;or
oatlay now going on in new erections for mining and Ir thst
facturing operations. It is, therefore, beyond a doubt bio
the aggregate of the railways now in progress, and for sho
Bills have been obtained, must and will be carried outg_sipto
that the new system of transit will be generally introduc,:ot
India, and all the other British dependencies, and by l'uoto•
consumption of iron, both in the construction and couti oat
quisitions for machinery and other contingencies, it willof tbo
a powerful and permanent influence on the prospects vile

energies of mankind to develop themselves in the P 17,010
of civilisation; and that, with the many thousands 01 "n

tion, these will afford sufficient consumption, under 11101
creased facilities of commerce, to prevent that dP°-00t
