MARKET NEWS -(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE—WEDNESDAY.
A very moderato supply of English Wheat has been
received up to our market this week, and the stands
were scantily supplied with samples of both red and
white. Selected qualities commanded a steady sale, at
prices ',na y equal to those obtained on Monday. The
middling and iiiferior kinds were a slow inquiry, at late
rates. Only 3,720 quarters of Foreign. Wheat have
come in. This morning the sh9w of samples was good;
nevertheless most descriptions moved off steadily, and
the quotations were well supported in every instance.
We had a better demand for nearly all kinds of Batley,
especially for realtirig
in parcels; but we have no actual
improvement to noticeaverage
value. In Malt a fair
amount of business was doing at full prices. Good
sound Oats were quite as dear. Other parcels were
neglected. Beans, Peas, Indian Corn and Meal were
dell in sale. The top price of the host town-made Flour
was 485. per 2801 b.

IPSWICH CORN EXCHANGE, OCT. 24.
We had rather a small supply:of most grain for this
day's market. Wheat was in fair rt quest, and last
week's prices were supported. As most of our maltsters
arc getting to work, the demand for Barley was pretty
considerable, and prices improved Is. per quarter. Oats
are more in request. Beans and Peas are rather
cheaper. Malt sells more readily. Flour, no variation.

press the high sense which the donors entertain of his
worship."
