MARKET NE WS. --(YESTERDAY.

coxsze EXCHANGE.
Daring the present week the arrivals of English
Wheat for our markets have been on a moderate scale,
and the show of samples of that article here to-day was
small; nevertheless, owing to the prevailing fine weather
for the growing crops, and the absence of the princii al
dealers, the trade was excessively dull, and, to have
effected sales a decline of fully ss. per quarter must
been submitted to in the quotations. In foreign Wheat
scarcely a transaction was reported, and large parcels
were off ring at an abatement in value of from 5s to 6.
per quarter. As respects spring corn, we may state
generally that the supplies were very moderate; yet the
trade was very depressed, and in the few transactions
concluded the rates declined is to 2s per quarter. Flour
and Indian corn were offering on easier terms.

Althlugh the supply of Beasts here to-day were but
moderate, we have to report a very dull inquiry for all
kinds of Beef, owing to the prevailing hot weather, at
barely, but at nothing quotable beneath, Monday's prices.
There were in the market 284 oxen and Cows, 800 Sheep
and Lambs, and 88 Calve; from Holland and Germany.
We were fairly supplied with Sheep, the demand for
which was steady, at late rates. The sale fur Lambs was
again very active, and the late improvement in value was
readily supported in every instance. The Veal trade
was firm, and the currencies advanced 2d per 81bs. In
Pigs very little business was transacted. Mileh Cows
were a dull sale, at from 171 to 201 each, including their
small calf.

Although a few reports have come to hand this week
complaining of the fly, our accounts from the plantations
generally speaking are very favourable. Such has been
the progress of the bine, that in some parts of Kent and
Sussex it has already reached the tops of the poles. As
might, therefore, be expected, the demand here for all
kinds of Hops is heavy, at barely stationary prices.
