MARKET NEWS.—(This D: ay

CORN EXCHANGE.

The present week's arrivals of English wheat, up to our
market, coastwise, and by land carriage, have been very
moderate, and the show of samples here to-day was small.
For most kinds, however, the demand was in a sluggish
state, at Monday's prices.
The imports of foreign wheat are 13, WO quarters. Sales
of all kinds progressed slowly, yet we have very little
change to notice in the quotations.

A large quantity of foreign barley was on offer, and th©
bailey trade ruled dull, at barely Monday's decline in
valuct.

The business doing in malt was limited, yet we have no
actual change to notice in prices.
Good sound oats were rather dearer, and other qualities
ruled steady.

Beans, peas, and flour act on Monday.
