ITANDICAT OF TEN SOVS. One Mile.
Sir R. Trenehard

There was very little business doing in wheat in tho
leading country markets held on Saturday. Prices, how-
ever, were decidedly firmer than in the early part of the
week. Fine barley realised full quotations, but all other
articles met a dull inquiry.

The arrivals of English grain up to our market, last
week, were moderate. From abroad we received 18,714
qrs. of wheat, 2,071 oats, 5,150 beaus, 171 tares, 140 flan-
dry seeds, 210 sacks and 5,072 barrels of flour.
The arrivals cf English wheat fresh up to our market
to-day, coastwise and by land carriage, were but moderate,
and for the most part in very middling condition. Al-
though the show of samples of both red and white was by
no means extensive, the demand for most kiads was by no
means brisk ; yet the whole of the supply changed hands
at ls to 2s per quarter above last Monday's prices.
There was a full average supply of foreign wheat in the
market. Really fine samples were held fimly, at very full
prices. In low and middling kinds next to nothing was
doing, at last week's currency.
Floating cargoes of grain were dull, but not cheaper.

Before these remarks meet the reader's eye the play
w',ll have commenced at Warwick, and the first act will
be nearly concluded. The brief observations on the
sport, which were published:in The Sun of Saturday last,
will serve as a sort of prelude, indicative of the stirring
business about to take place. Abruptly dropping awk.
ward metaphor, however, I will resume my discussion
of the probabilities. The character of the events ap'
pointed for decision is not sufficiently important to ren-
der it necessary that any opinion I may advance should
be supported by elaborate arguments.
For the Great Warwick Handicap the field is likely
to be limited. Fulbeck's performance at Nottingham
has placed an additional slbs on his weight, but the in-
creased impost is not likely to militate considerably
against his chance. The horse has thickened most im-
provingly, and he may yet prove that his party were not
over-sanguine when they supported him so confidently
last year at Chelmsford and at Goodwood. Little Davie
is not over-weighted; he is a game little horse, and lately
Edwin Parr has developed Isis racing powers to a sir_
prising extent. Notwithstanding the popular belief
which exists relative to the staying ability of The Flat-
terer, yet should this horse be " wanted " he will cer.
tainly run well. I, however, fancy, his "good time"
will be deferred until a later period of the year. Veteran,
the defeated and disgraced favourite for the Cambridge_
shire, has been most leniently treated by the handicapper,
and if he be kept for another purpose besides that of
"eating his head off," he ought on this occasion to posses
a chance of repaying his owner for his winter's hay and
corn. 'Without extending my remarks to the other
animals in the list of acceptances, I shall "jump at a
conclusion" by stating my opinion that the race will be

We were fairly supplied with oats, which moved off
slowly, at last week's fall in the quotations.
Beans were somewhat firmer than on Monday last ; but
no advance took place in prices.

We had a fair inquiry for peas, at full quotations.
The flour trade was rather inactive, at last week's cur-
rency.

FULBECK AND VETERAN.
For the Handicap Plate I shall stand Romeo, Flageolet,
and Englamer°.

Ben Land is invariably "formidable " at Warwick.
His Odiham is whispered about as being a "good thing"
for the Grand Annual Steeplechase. I shall be inclined
to select Minerva and Sandboy for the Hurdle Race.

The yearly comparison of woekly imports is as follows :
Beasts. Sheep. Lambs. Calves. Pigs

A very moderate supply of foreign stock was on offer in
to-day's market. The show of Irish stock was confined to
41 beasts and a few pigs.

Compared with Mcnday last, the supply of hnmo•fed
beasts was very moderate ; but their general quality was
good. For all breeds we had rather an active demand, at
an advance in the quotations realised on Monday last of
21 per Sibs. The best sorts realised 4s 81 per 81bs, and a
good clearance was effected.
From Norfolk. Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we
received 1,900 Scots and short horns ; from other parts of
England, 220 of various breeds ; and, from Scotland, 500
horned and polled Scots, chiefly by railway.
With sheep we were tolerably well supplied, and most
breeds came to hand in fair condition. Prime Downs sold
readily, at an improvement in the quotations of 2d per 81bs.
Other breeds were less active, yet, in some instances,
prices had an upward tendency. The best old Downs
realised 5s par Sibs. The best clipped sheep produced 4s
2d per 81bs.
The few lambs in the market changed hands freely, on
higher terms—the top figure being 7s 2d per Sibs.
Calves—the supply of which was very limited—sold
steadily, at an improvement in value of 2d per 81bs. The
best calves wore worth 5s BLI per 81bs.

Thorn was very little inquiry for pigs, at last week's
quotations.
