MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-MONDAY.

During the past week up to Saturday evening the arrivals of Eng-
lish Wheat were on a very moderate scale and of middling quality.
Of Barley, Malt, Beans, Peas, and Flour of home produce, the re-
ceipts were rather limited, but those of Oats were seasonably larger.
From Scotland very little grain of any description came to hand, but
from Ireland upwards of 17,000 quarters of Oats were received. The
import of Foreign Wheat was large, viz., 27,000 quarters, but that of
moot other articles was small. Coastwise, as well as by land car-
r:age and sample, the supply of Wheat fresh up this morning was
again dull, consequently the stands were by no means heavily Shied
with samples. The attendance of both town and country buyers was
moderately extensive, however the finest qualities of both Red and
White Wheat moved off freely at fully, but at no-
tidng quotable, beyond the prices obtained on this day
se'nnight. In the middling and inferior kinds only a
limited business was doing, and the quotations were with difficulty
supported. At the close of the market a total clearance of the
samples had not been effected. From most quarters the accounts
which have come to hand to-day, from this morning's post, respect-
ing the appearance of the growing wheat, are satisfactory. Kotwith-
standing the increased arrivals of foreign wheat last week, the snow
of fine samples of that article -to-day was very small. Although
the amount of business actually tilinsacted in it was limited, last
week's prices were supported in every instance. Several parcels of
foreign Wheat, in bulk, were on offer. Several speculators
being in the market, the importers asked most extrava-
gantly high prices for that article, and which enii, ely
prevented the transaction of any business of magnitude.
The show of Barley, bet English and foreign, being small, and many-
of the large brewers short of stock, the finest malting parcels com-
manded a brisk sale, and the quotations were considered the turn
higher. In grinding and distilling sorts a lair average amount of
business was doing at DA prices. liuperflue White Malt, the supply
of which was rather limited, commanded a firm inquiry at very full
currencies. In the middling and inferior kinds comparatively littie
was doing, at late rates. Although the number of Oat samples was
on the increase, that description of grain, arising from the limited
quantities held by the principal dealers, was again firm, and last
week's currencies were firmly supported in every instance. The
show of Beans was moderate ; for the best kinds we had a fair de-
mand at full prices, but other qualities hung on hand. Peas, espe-
cially white, moved off steadily at our quotations. The flour trade
was steady, and prices were steadily maintained.

roni abroad into the port of London

since Monday last have been small; ♦iz., 70 Beasts and 80 Sheep
from Rotterdam, in, comparatively speaking, middling condition. At
Hull, the arrivals from Holland have comprised 48 Beasts and 70
Sheep, of fair average quality. In to• day's market we had on sale
80 Beasts and 70 Sheep derived from the Continent, and which met
a very sluggish demand, at barely last week's quotations. Until the
new tariff comes into operation—and which will admit foreign stock
free of duty—very limited supplies can be expected, but from that
period they will no doubt be considerably on the increase. Since
the passing of the new tariff tho fallowing supplies of foreign stock
have been imported :

RAILWAY COMMITTEES.

(THIS DAY.)

GROUP IX

This Committee met to-day at twelve o'clock, Lord Wors-
ley in the chair, when the further consideration of evidence
was resumed in favour of the
GLASGOW lIARMOUR, MINERAL
T.h.nrina.rus.

Mr. Bold, civil engineer. was called and re-examined by
Mr. Sergeant Wrangham, on behalf of the General Terminus.
The whole land for the line was about nine and a half acres.
From his knowledge of the strata, the slopes were
quite sufficient when the soil was drained. The
borings had been made by a Mr. Stropp, but
witness was satisfied they were quite correct from his know-
ledge of the strata. The dee.pcst boring that had been
made was 28 feet. The centre of the tidal force would be
341, feet. The frontage of the dock or tidal basin was.tobe
built on piles 42 feet in length. The excavation of the line
of railway would amount to 100,000 cubic yards; of the
tidal basin to 227,431 cubic yards The expense of these
cuttings he estimated at 14d. a cubic yard, which was rather
.
a high estimate. Supposing the whole of the spoil of-the
cuttings laid down on oue spot at two yards deep, it would
require about 40 acres surface.
Cross-examined by Mr. HILL, on the part of the Grand
Junction terminus. The tidal basin would load about 1,000
tons a-day, and for this traffic he thought about 1,000 wag-
; gons would be required. He could not say how many trains
would be required, as he had not directed attention to that
point. He had not surveyed the line himself. The plans
had been put into his hands by Mr. Dreghorn, a director,
and the solicitor, Mr. Kyle. The depth of the basin would
be, at high water, 17 feet; at low water, 10 feet. Vessels
of 150 tom could float at low water.
