Most of the country markets held on Saturday were
scantily supplied with wheat; nevertheless, most kinds
ruled less active, and prices were with difficulty supported.
There was a fair inquiry for barley and all other articles, at
full currencies.

Throughout the Continent, a full average business has
been p tssing in wheat, chiefly on English account, on
rather higher terms. Other descriptions of produce have
moved off steadily, at very full prices. In the United
States, cereals generally continued in request, at extreme
rates.

A fair average supply of wheat was received fresh up to
our market to-day from Essex ; but the general condition of
the samples was very inferior. From Kent the receipts were
rather limited. The few samples on offer were mostly dis-
posed of at last Monday's prices; but other kinds were a
dull inquiry, and in most instances fully Is :per quarter
cheaper, without a clearance being effected. Most of the
millers showed no disposition to increase their stocks.

There was a large show of foreign wheat. Buyers ope-
rated cautiously ; nevertheless, importers were firm in
their demands, and in the few sales reported last week's
prices were supported.

We had less activity in the inquiry for floating cargoes,
on former terms.

Fine barley sold at 44s per quarter, being full prices.
Other kinds were in moderate request, at late rates.
There was a fair sale for malt, at last week's quotations.
Good sound oats realised about previous rates ; but damp
samples moved off slowly, on somewhat easier terms.
Beans were in fair request, at last week's prices.
The sale for peas was steady, at full currencies.
We have to report a slow sale for flour, at about stationary
prices.
