MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-FRIDAY.
The present week's arrivals of English Wheat having been on the
bacrease,the show of samples of that grain here to-day was good. Even
the finest qualities met a very dull inquiry, at barely late rates ;
while the middling and inferior kinds might have been purchased at
a decline in the quotations of is per quarter. Of Foreign Wheat the
imports have been small. Although the quantity on show this
morning was trifling, both free and banded parcels were considered
somewhat lower, with a very heavy demand. There was a fair
supply of Barley on offer, and which met a dull sale, at, in some
instances, drooping prices. We had a fair retail demand for fine
Malt, at previous rates. The Oat trade was very dull, at Monday's
currency. Other articles as last

Although the supply of Beasts on offer this morning was but
moderate, the Beef trade ruled heavy, and Monday's prices were
with difficulty supported. There were on sale 30 Oxen and Cows,
together with 50 Sheep, from Holland. The arrivals from Scotland
embraced 100 head. Prime old Downs were in fair request, at full
currencies; but all other kinds of Sheep were very dull. From the
Isle of Wight I 1 1 Lambs came to hand in good condition. The
Lamb trade was dull, yet the quotations were supported. In Calves,
very little was doing, at late rates. Pigs moved off slimly, at our
quotations. Milch Cows dull, at from 151 to 181 each, including
their small Calf. Suckling Calves, 18s to 295; and Quarter-old Store
Pigs, 16s to 19s each. Beasts, 603; Cows, 140 ; Sheep and Lambs,
2,620 ; Calves, 138 ; Pigs, 320.

TOBACCO.—There was an extensive business last month, sales
being estimated at 3,880 hhds, and an addition may probably be made
to this amount, as the sales of one importer have not been accurately
ascertained, and we have therefore omitted in our summary any of
the number of hhds stated as having been sold, reports being so much
at variance. Of the above, 3,000 hhds have been taken for Spain; a
large portion consisted of ord and mid Kentucky, at 2d to 3d, and
which has materially relieved the market, by reducing considerably
the large stock of export descriptions. Consumptive demand has
been steady, but limited; and the market has net presented any
feature. Imports 50 hhds. Deliveries 1,088 hhds, against 1,124 in
the corresponding month of 1848. Stock 24,620 Mb, against 09,f1•
