COLLN EXCHANGE.

The supplies of wheat on offer in ihe conntry markets
held on Saturday, were very moderato; nevertheless, the
demand for all kinds ruled heavy, and prices were the
turn in favour of buyers. Barley and all the other spring
corn moved off steadily, at extreme quotations. Flour,
however, was very dull.

The continental markets continue fall, yet the fluctua-
tions in prices are trifling. Our American advices come
very inactive.

Up to our market, last week, the arrivals of home-grown
produce were very moderate. From abroad, we received
7,344 quarters of wheat, 2,65 bane?, 3,875 oats, 1,950
beans, 5 tares, 11,515 linseed, 5,230 rapeseed, S 5 sundry
seeds, 1,506 sacks and 501 barrels of fbur.
The supply of English wheat received fresh up to our
market this morning, coastwise and br land carriage, was
even smaller than on Monday last ; indeed, it scarcely
amounted to 1,000 quarters. For allkinds, however, the
demand was somewhat firm, and, in wine instances, prices
were is per quarter higher than on Monday last.
Thera was rather an extensive show of most kinds of
foreign wheat. Even the finest samples were quite
neglected, and so little business was thing that prices ruled
nominally the same as last week.

In floating cargoes of grain very few transactions took
place.

There was very little barley on die, aither English or
foreign. The trade was decidedly firm at very full prices.
For malt, there was a fair demand, at full quotations.
We were scantily supplied with oats, which sold steadily
at fully last week's currency to ls. per quarter advance.
Beans changed hands ireely, at fel, prices.
We had a good demand for peas, ai is. per quarter more
money.
In flour, very little was doing, at last week's decline in
value.

There was a very poor show of foreign stock in to-day's
market, and its general qua;ity was rather inferior.
Compared with many previous weeks, the arrivals of
home-fed beasts fresh up this morning, were very limited,
and most breeds came to hand in but poor condition.
Owing to the moderate supplies of moat on sale in the
dead market, and to the favourable weather for slaughter-
ing, the beef trade ruled steady, at an advance in the quo-
tations realised on Monday last of fully 2d., in some in-
_ _ _

stances, 4d. per lb. The primest lots sold without diffi-
culty, at 4.. 6d., per elbs., and a good clearance was
effected.

From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we
received 1,800 Scots and shorthorns; from other parts of
England, 300 of various breeds ; from Scotland, 100 Scots,
and from Ireland, 2W oxen.

With sheop we were very moderately supplied for the
time of year; but most breeds came to hand in fair con-
dition. There was a decided improvement in the general
tone of the mutton trade ; and, in some cases, prices were
the turn higher. The general top figure for Downs in the
wool was 55., but some few pens realised ss. 2d. per 81bs.
Downs out of the wool wont at 4s, 4d. to 4s. 6d. per 81133,
The show of lambs was limited, and the demand for
them ruled steady at from 6s. to 7s. per 8 lbs.
Calves —the supply of which was limited--sold readily
at 4,1. per 8 lbs. above the currencies realised on Monday
last. The best veal was worth ss. 4d. per 8 lbs.

The few pigs in the market were in somewhat improved
request, but no advance took place in their value.
