MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.-(MONDAY.)
The arrivals of English Wheat up to our market last week
were on a very limited scale, coastwise as well as by land
carriage and samples. Of all other kinds of Grain of home
produce the receipts were scanty, while from Ireland and
Scotland they were unimportant. Taking the foreign supplies
as a whole they were good, but no particular article came
heavily to hand. Fresh up, a fair average quantity of Eng-
lish Wheat was received, in good condition ; yet the actual
quantity on offer—owing to nearly the whole of the late un-
sold samples being previously disposed of—was compara-
tively small, owing to which the demand for most descrip-
tions was steady, at an improvement in the cur-
rencies obtained on Monday last of fully is per
quarter, and at which a good clearance was effected. The
show of free foreign Wheat was tolerably extensive, yet the
inquiry for that article was very firm, and a good business
was doing in it at prices a trifle over those paid last week,
at which the holders were by no means anxious sellers. Very
little Wheat, or, indeed, any other grain, was on offer in
bond ; yet the supply proved, owing to the absence of spe-
culative buyers, fully adequate to meet the wants of the
dealers. In prices we have no alteration to notice. A
few hundred quarters of bonded Wheat sold for
the French markets at full prices. The quantity of Barley
was rather limited. Selected parcels of Malting moved
off readily, at extreme currencies, but the mid-
dling and inferior kinds commanded very little
attention, though we cannot call them cheaper.
There was rather more inquiry for Malt, but the high rates
demanded for that article, and the small quantity on show'
checked business. The trade, however, may be called steady,
at full prices. With Oats, we were very scantily supplied.
Fine parcels were held at a trifle more money, but all other
kinds were much neglected. The transactions were by no
means large. For Beans the inquiry was heavy, at previous
figures. The show of foreign Peas being large, the trade was
dull, at barely stationary prices. In l lour, comparatively
little was doing, at last week's figures.

Atha hvtineg been landed while
in the northern ports, such as Hull, &c., about 300
Beasts and 700 Sheep have been received in fair condition.
We had on offer to-day about 300 Beasts, 650 Sheep, and 10
Calves from abroad, in middling condition. With home-fed
Beasts we were but moderately supplied. The few prime
Scots on sale commanded a very ready sale, at prices fully
equal to those obtained on this day se'nnight, but the mid-
dling and interior breeds, which formed the bulk of the
supply, were very dull, and somewhat lower. From the
northern districts we received 800 Shorthorns, from the
western and midland counties 900 Herefords, 90 Devons, &c ,
and from other parts of England 500 of various breeds. The
numbers of Sheep were moderately extensive, and of prime
quality. The best old Downs sold at late rates, but all other
breeds were quite 2d. per Blbs. lower. In Calves only a
limited business was doing, at last week's prices. The Pork
trade was dull, at late figures.

Rather extensive supplies of Pork D
have H
reAached us from
various parts of the country during the past week, but those
of other kinds of meat have been comparatively small. With
meat killed in the metropolis we have been well supplied, but
the quality has proved indifferent. Prime Beef, Mutton, and
Veal are selling steadily at full prices. In all other kinds of
meat only a limited business is doing. About 90 packages
of Beef and Pork have come to hand since our last from
Hambnrgh, and nearly 1,200 of foreigh Beasts, Sheep, and
Calves have found buyers. _ _

At the waterside the arrivals of Potatoes are on the in-
crease, and of improved quality. From Holland about 70,
and from France 250 tons, have arrived in the course of the
week. Selected samples are steady, but other qualities are
very dull.

BOROUGH HOP MARKET.
The supply of Hops on offer here being large, the demand
ruled heavy, and to effect sales of the inferior qualities, lower
rates must be submitted to. Sussex Pockets, 3112 s to 41 6s;
Weald of Kent, ditto, 41 to 41 lOs ; Mid and East Kent, 418 s
to 6165.

WOOL.
The imports of Wool last week were on a limited scale,
they not exceeding 300 packages. Privately very little
business is doing in any kind of Wool, and prices are with
difficulty supported. The public sales commence on Wed-
nesday next.

TALLOW.
The market may be considered steady, yet prices are not
quite so high as on Monday last. Town Tallow, 50s net cash,
