Most of the country markets held on Saturday were
scantily supplied with wheat, yet all kinds were a dull in-
quiry, and quite is per quarter lower in price. No change
took place in the value of barley ; but all other articles had
a drooping tendency.
Throughout the Continent, wheat has been less active.
In prices, however, no change of importance has taken
place. All spring corn has continued in request at full
currencies. In the United States, produce has come for-
ward somewhat freely, and large parcels of wheat have
changed hands for shipment to England.
Very little English grain reached our market last week.
From abroad, however, large supplies came to hand, viz.,
52,390 qrs of wheat, 4,590 barley, 134,664 oats, 310 beans,
1,536 peas, 90 tares, 2,390 linseed, 1,910 rapeseed, 2,345
maize, 480 sundry seeds, 2,707 sacks, and 7,012 barrels of
flour.

The arrivals of English wheat fresh up to-day coastwise
and by land carriage were trifling, hence the show of
samples was small. The demand for all kinds, however,
ruled heavy in the extreme, and prices were nominally is
to 2s per qr. lower than on this day se'nnight.
The accounts at hand from our leading grain districts
state that a considerable improvement has taken place in
the appearance of the wheat crop during the past week.
We were somewhat extensively supplied with foreign
wheat. All descriptions were very dull, and to have forced
sales quite 2s per qr. less money must have been submitted
to by the factors.

Floating cargoes were heavy, though offering on some-
what lower terms.

There was a moderate sale for barley—the show of which
was limited—at last week's quotations. Malt, however,
was dull, on former terms.

The show of foreign oats being unusually heavy, the oat
trade was dull, at fully is per quarter beneath last Mon-
day's quotations,

Both beans and peas were adull inquiry, and rather
cheaper.

The flour trade was very dull, at drooping currencies.
The supply of foreign flour was on the increase.
