MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY•)

CORN EXCHANGE_FRIDAY•

A fair average supply of English Wheat.has been re-
ceived up to our market this we'k, coastwise, for the
time of year, viz., 1,760 quartore, chic fly of the present
year's growth, and ie excellent condition—most of the
parcels weighing from 621bs. to 641bs. per bushel. Al-
though the show of samples was by no means large, the
demand for all kinds of Wheat of home produce ruled
heavy, and low qualities, both red and white, wore the
turn in favour of buyers. From abroad upwards of 13,000
qrs of Wheat have reached us. The trade was in a very
depressed state, and in come instances the quotations
were nominal. In floating cargoes we heard of no sales.
Scarcely any English Barley was on show, but the sup-
ply of Foreign exceeded 15,000 quarters. The trade
was dull, and the quotations had a downward tendency.
We had a very sow sale for Malt, the supply of which
amounted to 3,790 quarters, at Monday's prices. Home-
grown Oats were scarce, but the imports of Foreign
were 28,380 quarters. A fair amount of business was
doing, at late rates. Beans, Peas, Indian Corn, and
Flour, were very dull.

To-day's;market tieing somewhat largelycupplied with
Beasts, even the time of year considered, the demand for
that description of stock ruled successively heavy, at
barely Monday's prices, and a clearance was not effected.
The extreme figure for the best Scots was 3s Gd per
Blbs. The supply of Sheep was good. All breeds met
a very dull inquiry, and late rates were with difficulty
supported. Tho best old Downs realised 3s 10d Per
Blbs. Lambs, which came freely to hand, moved off
steadily, and last week's quotation were well supported.
Prime small Calves were quite as dear; but other kinds
of Veal ruled heavy. Some of the Dutch Calvos sold
as low as 23 per 8Ibs: Pigs met a dull inquiry. Mile?
Cows were sellers at from 141 to 181 each, including their
small Calf.
