MAIZKET NE WS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE—(IVIONDAY.)
Nearly the whole of the country markets held on Sa-
turday were hut raodcrately
supplied with home grown
Wheat, yet the demand f,,r all descriptions ruled heavy,
end prices had a downward tendency. In foreign
Wheats scarcely any business was doing
rencies. Malting and distilling Barley sold steadily, bill
grinding samples, as well as Mal!., met a slow inquiry.
The Oat trade was tolerably firm; and Indian Corn was
held for rather more money. Beans, Peas, and Flour
heavy. at previous ear:
An improved demand for both Wheat and Flour g r
pears to have sprung up in the United States' markets.
In the Russian ports very little business has been re-
ported, but in France Flour continues to change 112'1(13
freely at low currencies.
Up to our market last week, the arrivals of English
Grain and Flour were small. From abroad they amounted
to 4,911 quarters Wheat, 1,620 Barley, 11,070 Oat'', 168
Peas, 15 Tares, 7 Linseed, 33 sundry Seeds, 8,880 sacks'
and 1,326 bls. of Flour.
Fresh up to this morning's market the arrivals of
Wheat from Essex and Kent, by water carriage, were
moderate, and in fair average condition. By land car•
riage horn Norfolk, Cambridgeshire, &c., the receipts
were small, and most of the samples were of very rou.
dung quality.
Owing to the holidays, the attendance of both toWn
and country millers was small; hence, the demand for
all kinds of Wheat of home produce—the sale for vrbic';
was evidently checked by the immense quantity S'
French Flour on offer—ruled exceedingly inactive, and'
when sales were forced, the factors submitted to 5 re.
duction in the prices of Monday last of is per quarter;
At the close of business, a portion of the supply vomiting'
unsold.

Numerous offers came to hand from the East Coact
to ship Wheats on lower terms; but the business dojo;
was limited to sma.l parcels.
The quantity of fresh foreign Wheat on show was by
no means large; but we had a good supply from gra;
nary. Selected qualities k,f both red and white moved
off slowly at late rates; whilst the middling and inferior
kinds were very dull, and the turn in favour of buyers.
Scarcely any Wheat was offering afloat; but numerous
orders have been forwarded to the Baltic markets at cols'
paratively low limits.

The weather having become rather mild for malting',
there was less inquiry for fine Barley, the prices 0'
which were barely maintained; but grinding and cllB.
tiding sorts moved off steadily, at full currencies.
Although the supply of Malt was small, that article
commanded very little attention at last week's quotatioc.
With Oats we were very moderately supplied.
the whole the trade ruled firm, and prices were we
ll
supported.
We had an improved inquiry for Beans, which 500
at the extreme currencies 0: last week.
The sale for Peas was inactive, but holders refused t°
accept lower rates.

ludiau Corn, afloat, was held for more money.
The supply of Flour being large, the trade with thai
article was heavy, and low qualities were easier t°
purchase.

SEEDS.
The supply of both English and Foreign Clover
Seed on sale to-day was large. All kind's rne'
a very dull inquiry, and in some instances prices ware
the turn in favour of buyers. Canary moved off
on somewhat easier terms. Most other Seeds, as we'

The total imports of foreign stock into London, 10)
week, amounted to 1,883 head. During the eorrespomi:

and in 1848, 1,256 head. The Beasts and CaINNIS 00°-
tinue to arrive in good condition, but we have veryf
little improvement to notice in the weighing qualities 0
the Sheep, which are now coming to hand out of the
wool. No Lambs have yet arrived.

At the northern outposts, the arrivals were 5m:111; how
217 Beasts, and 228 Pigs, were received at Lowestoft
from Hjerting, from which port large supplies are e%'
pected during the present year, and which will, 5./.°
understand, be mostly forwarded per railway to LW°
market. As is invariably the case at this period of the
year, the supply of Beasts on offer to-day was very vv.
derate, but its general quality was good. As the at'
tendance of both town and country buyers was smell,
and the weather by no means favourable for slaughter"
ing, the Beef trade ruled excessively heavy, at a decline
in the quotations of 2d per Blbs, and a totes
clearance was not effected. A few very WI;
perior Scots realized 35 8d; but the getters,
top figure for Beef did not exceed 3s 6d per 81135.
From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, We
received 2,150 Scots, Shorthorns, &c.; from other parts
of England, 300 of various breeds; and from Scotland:
320 horned and polled Scots ; the remainder of the
Bullock supply being derived from abroad and the
neighbourhood of the metropolis. With Sheep we were
heavily supplied, considering the holidays. All breeds
met a very dull inquiry, and prices gave way 2d per 81bes
The top quotation for Downs in the wool was 4s 4d, out
of the wool, 3s 8d per 81be. Lambs, the numbers of which
were large, were in moderate request, at from 4s 8d to
6s per Blbs. Only 20 came to hand from the Isle of
Wight. We had a very slow sale for Calves, at drooping
currencies. In Pigs so littlo was doing that their price'
were almost nominal.

Notwithstanding that our markets are very moderately
supplied with each kind of Meat, the general demand is
in a very inac:ive state, and in some instances the quo'

BOROUGH HOP MARICET.
Since our last report scarcely any busines has been
transacted in this market, and the following (or factors')
prices must be considered almost nominal:—Mid and
East Kent pockets, 80s to 130 s; Weald of Kent ditto,
75s to 84s; Sussex ditto, 64s to 80s per cwt.

V7OOE.
The imports of Wool into London, last week, were
under 100 bales. Toe accounts tram the manufacturing
districts being by no means active, the demand for Most
kinds of Wool, both English and Foreign, in the Pri-
vate Contract Market, is in a very depressed state, and
low qualities are offering on somewhat lower terms.
TALLONAT.
Although the stock 01 Tallow is now reduced to
34.242 casks, our market is exceedingly inactive, and
prices are 3d to 6d per cwt lower than on Monday last,
P.Y.C. on the spot, being quoted at 40s per cwt. For
forward delivery scarcely any sales have taken place.
Town Tallow 38s 6il per cwt net cash.
