MARKET NE WS.-(THIS DAY.)`

CORN EXCHANGE.—(MONDAY.)
Very moderate supplies of English Wheat were on
sale in most of the country markets held on Saturday'
Fine samples were in good request at, in most instal:wet
an advance in the quotations of is per quarter. 1"
other kiLds, including foreign, were quite as dear'
Barley came slowly to band, and was readily disposed of
at extreme currencies. Very little was doing in Malt;
but the value 01 Oats, Beans, and Peas had an upward
tendency.
The latest advices from New York bring a further de
cline in the prices of Flour. The arrivals from the in'
tenor were rapidly increasing. In the Baltic and Black
Sea ports Wheat has been held for rather more mcneP
The general demand in France has somewhat improved.
The arrivals of English Grain up to our market last
week were small. From abroad they amounted to
8,144 quarters of Wheat, 9,889 Barley, 11,055 Oats,
7 Beans, 37 Mustard seed, 56 sundry seeds, and 7,035
sacks of Flour.
The arrivals of Wheat fresh up to this morning's
market, from Essex, coastwise, was very moderate!
those from Kent slightly on the increase. By lend
carriage, the receipts were comparatively small, but of
improved quality. Notwithstanding that the show of
samples of both red and white was limited, the demand
for all descriptions, owing to the pressure of foreign
warehoused Flour, the prevailing fine weather for 1138
growing crops. and the thin attendance of both town
and country millers, was in a very sluggish state, a
prices barely equal to those obtained on Monday jest'
However, a good clearance was effected prior to the close
of business.

The number of offers from the east coast was small,
and mostly on higher terms. For forward deliverf
scarcely a transaction took place.
The quantity of fresh Foreign Wheat on show was
trifling, as some of last weat's supply has gone direct
into the hands of millers. With samples, ex warehouse,
we were fairly supplied. Fine dry qa sold slowli
at full rates of cuirency. In the widuling and inferior
kinds next to nothing was doing, at late figures. Nu'
merous off,rs were on the market from Dimizio and
elsewhere.

English Burley came very slowly to band, but the
show of forei►;n samples was tolerably large. Grinding
arid distilling sorts were taken off readily, at full quota-
tions. In Malting samples nt xt to nothing was doing►
but we have no full to report in their value.
Malt, the supply of which was good, sold slowly, et
about, statioLary prices.
The total supply of Oats, including the foreign arri-
vals, being very small, the Oar, trade ruled active, at to
improve meat in the qut tations of 1, pt r quarter.
In Beaus very little doing, yet prices were hall
supported. _

here was only a limited inquiry for Peas at last
week's currene).
Indian Corn and Flour were in moderate request, 1;
unaltered quotations. The supply of the latter was good.

The show of foreign Beasts here today was tolerably
good; that of Sheep, Lambs, and Calves, moderate.
Arrivals took place from Denmark via Lowestoft. With
home-fed Beasts we were again seasonably well supplied
both as to number and quality. Notwithstanding the Warm
weather, the Beef' tr.de ruled steady, and last Monday's
prices were well suppUrted. However, the highest figure
for the best Scots cticienot exceed 3. 6d per 81be. Froel
