MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-MONDAY.

The arrivals of Wheat of home produce up to our
market last week, coastwise as ivell as by laud carriage,
were tolerably good—those of Barley extensivc. Of all
other grain, as well as flour, the receipts were some
what at/4 ye the average of some previous weeks. Very
few parcels came to bawl either from Ireland or Scotland,
while the imports from abroad consisted of 10,063
quarters of Wheat, 1,010 ditto of Barley, 700 ditto of
Oats, 2,400 ditto of Beans, 1,000 ditto of Pest, and only
98 barrels of Flour. Nearly the whole of the Wheat
came from Russia. Fresh up this morning, rather a
large quantity of English Wheat was received from
Essex, and from Kent and Suffolk the ar-
rival was decidedly good. However, owing
to most of the parcels being greatly out of condition,
from the dampness of the weather, the utmost caution
was manifested on the part of the dealers—whose a:-
tendance was far from numerous—in getting into stock;
hence we have to report a very dull inquiry for all kinds
of English Wheat, at a decline in the quotations paid
on Monday last of from Is to 2s per quarter, and at
the close of business a clearance had not been effected.
The actual supply of Wheat was much larger than that
exhibited on any previous Monday during the present year
The quantity of foreign Wheat on offer was moderately
good, and a portion of it was of heavy weight. Se-
lected parcels wore held at late rates, but the middling
and inferior kinds fell from is to 21 per quarter. Su-
perfine Malting Barley was in fair request ; but grind-
ing and distilling parcels were rather dull, and the
turn cheaper Malt—the supply of which was more
than equal to the wants of the brewers—
moved off steadily, at barely stationary prices.
The supply of Oats was exceedicgly small. That
grain moved off steadily, and last week's prices were well
supported. Both Beans and Peas were a slow sale, at
barely late rates. In Indian Coffin and Meal next to
nothing was doing. The beat qualities of Flour sold at
full prices; but other parcels might have been purchased
on somewhat lower terms.

During last week the imports of foreign stock into
London were very small, or as under:—
From whence. Beasts. Sheep. Calves.
Rotterdam
Harlingen
Noordwyk .
Antwerp

Total 95 ... 1,023 ... 27
At the outports the arrivals have not exceeded 700
head, but the quality of both Beasts and Sheep has been
very superior to some previous importations. Thu
numbers of foreign stock on show this morning were
very small, viz., about 90 Oxen and Cows and 400 Slieeu
from Holland, as also 28 Oxen from Spain, the larger
portion of which sold at somewhat droopi.ig prices, not-
withstanding the general quality of both Beasts anti
Sheep was tolerably good. From our large grazing
districts, the arrivals of Beasts fresh up to-day, b)
drift and railway, were seasonably extensive, but by
no paeans of prime quality. Although the attendant,
of both town and country buyers was a full averagt
one. the Beef trade—arising principally from the un
favourable state of the weather for slaughtering—wa,
in a very sluggish state, at a decline in the quotations o'
from 2d to, in some instances, 4d per Blbs. At the close 01
business, a total clearance of the inferior breeds had not
been effected, and we may observe that the highest genera;
figure for the best Scots--though some were disposed tit
at 4s 10d—did not exceed 4s 8d per 81bs. The arrivals
of Beasts from the north consisted of about 750 short
horns; from the eastern, western, and midland counties,
1,200 Herefords, runts, Devons, Scots, Irish beasts, and
short horns; from other parts of England 800 of various
breeds ; and from Scotland, 200 horned and polled
Scots. The numbers of Sheep were moderately exten-
sive and a fair average quality. On the whole, the
Mutton trade was firm, but far from brisk, at prices
about equal to those paid on Monday last, the best obi
Downs selling at As 2d to 5s 4d per 81bs. Very few
Calves were on show, yet the Veal trade was in a ver)
sluggish state, and prices had a downward tendency.
Prime small Porkers were quite as dear ; otherwise the
Pork trade was heavy at late rates.
