THIS DAY'S MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE.

There was a very poor show of English wheat on the
stands this morning. Although the demand, owing to a
further large influx of foreign produce, was by no means
active, factors were vary firm, and Monday's prices were
supported.
Nearly 50,000 quarters of foreign wheat have come to
hand this week. The importers, however, showed no dis-
position to accept lower rates ; but the business done was
somewhat restricted.
Floating cargoes commanded previous rates, witk a
moderate inquiry.
Most descriptions of barley were in fair request, at full
quotations.
The malt trade was in a sluggish state, on former terms.
Rather large parcels of oats were taken off at full quo-
tations.
Beans, peas, and flour changed hands slowly. Prices,
however, were supported.
