MARKET NEWS.--{THIS DAY.

CORN EXCHANGE-(FRIDAY.)

During the past week the arrivals of English Wheat for
our market have been on a moderate scale, viz., only 2,660
quarters; the stands being very scantily supplied, the de-
mand for wheat of home produce was steady, at Monday's
prices. Owing to the low currencies at which American
Flour is selling, next to nothing was doing in Foreign Wheat,
the quotations of which were barely supported. The best
grinding Barley moved off steadily, at late rates, but other
kinds were a slow inquiry. Superfine Malt was quite as
dear, but other kinds hung on hand. Oats, Beans, Peas, and
Flour, moved oil' slowly, at late rates.

SMITHFIELD.
The supply of beasts on sale here being more than adequate
to meet the wants of the buyers, the beef trade was in a very
depressed state, and Monday's reduced currencies were with
difficulty supported. There were on offer 150 Oxen and Cows,
470 Sheep and Lambs, and 10 Calves from Holland, together
with 70 horned and polled Scots from Scotland. The num-
bers of Sheep were not quite so extensive as those exhibited
on this day se'nnight. On the whole the mutton trade was
firm, and the quotations were a turn higher. The Lamb
trade was steady at fully, but at nothing quotable beyond,
previous rates. In Calves a good business was doing at full
prices, but Pigs commanded very little attention. Milch
Cows were selling at from 161 to 191 each, including their
small calf; suckling Calves, 18s to 295; and quarter-old
store Pigs, 16s to 18s each. Beasts, 814 ; Cows, 150 ; Sheep
and Lambs, 12,550; Calves, 535; and Pigs, 250.
NEVIGATE AND LEILDENHAILL.
We had a very slow inquiry.
BOROUGH HOP MARKET.
The plantation accounts being considered favourable, the
demand here for all kinds of Hops is heavy, and prices are
almost nominal. The duty is called 150,0001.—Sussex
Pockets, Si to 6/ 6s; Kent ditto, Si 5s to 6/ 10s; Mid and

COLONIAL.
SUGAR.—The market for British Plantation has been rather
flat this week, and the sales have not averaged above 500
hhds per diem : owing to the same cause, the uncertainty as
to the new range of duties, which affects other sugars,
St. Lucia at auction realised 52s for fine yellow, and 48s 6d
to 49s for middling.
EAST INDlA.—There has been no Bengal offered publicly,
and privately holders do not press sales, not being inclined to
accept lower prices. Mauritius is in the same position;
Madras, 513 bags realised 41s 6d to 43s for low and middling
damp yellow.
FOREIGN.—Porto Rico has been sold at 22s 6d, and yellow
Havannah at 24s 6d per cwt
REFlNED.—Standard Lumps have been quoted at GU 6d to
69s per cwt.
COFFEE.—There has been a very moderate business done
in British Plantation, but for Ceylon the inquiry is tolerably
good, about 7,000 bags have been sold. Plantation sorts
have realised 758 up to 112 s, and other qualities 40s to 45s
per cwt. Mocha has realised 32s 6d to 64s per cwt. ; Singa-
pore Java, 28s 6d to 278 ; and Rio has been taken in at 40s
to 58s per cwt.
COCOA.—Trinidad red has been 37s to 471, and Grenada
34s to 45s per cwt.
RICE.—A good deal of Bengal has been offered and been
taken at auction. Fine white has realised 135 6d to 14s, good
and good yellow, 108 6d to Ils per cwt. A quantity of the
Rice offered bas also been taken at full prices.

Rum.—Leeward Island proof has been 2s 3d, and fine
Jamaica 5s 9d per gallon; Calcutta proof, with certificate,
has been quoted is 1 I d to 2s per gallon.
SALTPETKE.-1,292 bags rough Saltpetre sold at fuller
rates. Calcutta, 3%2 to 3% per cent. refraction, 27s to 27s 6d.
