CORN EXCHANGE-FRIDAYNy

Since Monday the arrivals of English Wheat for our
market, coastwise as well as by Lind carriage and
samples, have been seasonably good, and of full average
quality. The show of samples to-day exceeding the
wants of the buyers, whose attendance was somewhat
limited; the demand for all kinds of Wheat of home
produce was in a very sluggish state, at barely Monday's
prices. The best Farcels of Foreign Wheat were mostly
disposed of, at late rates. In the middling and inferior
kinds next to nothing was doing, and prices were with
difficulty supported. Scarcely a simple of English Bar-
ley was in the market, but the show of foreign was good.
The trade was heavy, and the quotations ruled in favour
of the buyers. Malt, the supply of which was moderate,
moved off slowly, at barely late figures. The Oat trade
was in a very depressed state, and, in some instances,
prices were quite 6d per' quarter lower. Beans, Peas,
Indian Corn, and Flour, very dull.

The supply of Beasts on offer in to day's market
being very moderate, the attendance of beyers on the
increase, and the weather more favourable to slaughter-
ing, the Beef trade was steady at an advance on Mon-
day's quotations of 2d per 81bs, some of the primest Scots
producing 4s 4d per Blbs, and at which a good clearance
was effected. The arrival from Scotland comprised
280 Scots and 460 Sheep. There was a falling off in
the numbers of English Sheep, the sale for which was
firm, at prices fully equal to those paid last week; prime
old Downs selling at 5s per Sibs without difficulty. The
best Lambs were in moderate request, at full currencies
btlierVise the Lamb trade was heavy at barely late rates,
In Calves a full average business was doing at our
quotations. Pigs were slow in sale, but not cheaper.
Milch Cows sold at from 151 to 181 each, including their
small calf.
