THIS DA I'S MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE.

The transactions in wheat in most of the country mar-
kets, held on Saturday, were very moderate. In prices,
however, no change of importance took place. Grinding
and distilling barley realised extreme rates ; but malting
barley was dull. Oats, beans, and peas commanded ex-
treme quotations ; but flour was a slow sale.
The continental markets have been less active for wheat,
at barely the late advance in the quotations. In spring
corn, rather large transactions have taken place on English
account. Parcels of wheat and flour continue to change
hands in the United States for shipment to England.
The arrivals of home-grown produce up to our market,
last week, were limited. The imports from abroad were
confined to 6212 quarters of wheat, 4243 barley, 14,285 oats,
4507 beans, 757 peas, 1598 tares, 28,995 linseed, 6320 rape-
seed, 20 sundry seeds, 250 sacks and 2500 barrels of flour.

The arrivals of wheat fresh up to our market to-day from
Essex were somewhat in excess of Monday last, but those
from Kent were very moderate. The demand for both red
and white parcels was in a sluggish state. However,
good and useful qualities sold at prices equal to this day
se'nnight, but low and damp parcels ruled somewhat
heavy, and in some instances the quotations ruled the turn
in favour of buyers.

We were but moderately supplied with foreign wheat.
Owing to the comparatively small stocks in granary, all
description were held at very full prices, but the amount of
business doing was only modtrate, at lato quotations, to a
slight advance.

The inquiry for floating cargoes of grain was by no means
active, at about previous currencies.

There was very little inquiry for malting barley, but
grinding and distilling sorts changed hands freely, and
prices were the turn higher.

The malt trade ruled inactive at last week's currency
The show of oats was rather limited, and sales progressed
stead ly at 6d per qr more money.
The few beans in the market sold readily at fully last
week's currency.

Peas changed hands freely at extreme rates.
There was only a moderate sale for flour, at late quota-
ions.
