CORN EXCHANGE.

The supply of English wheat received fresh up to-day,
coastwise and by land carriage, was very moderate.
Although the show of samples was limited, the demand for
all kinds ruled very inactive at Monday's quotations.
The imports of foreign wheat are under 3,003 quarters.
Good and fino qualities were held at full prices ; but low
and damp parcels were quite neglected. We had a fair
demand for barley, at full currencies, but malt met a very
slow sale at barely late rates.
The show of oats was only moderate, yet the demand
was heavy, and damp parcels were rather cheaper.
.In the value of beans, peas, and flour, no change took
place.

AX EAGLE{ SHOT.—A large eagle, which has been
flying about in the vicinity of Arundel to the terror of
many, was shot on Friday last by Mr. W. Ottler, the
head gamekeeper of his Grace the Duke of Norfolk.
Since the singular visitor has been in the neighbourhood
he has been aimed at by many sportsmen who have been
unsuccessful in bringing him down. We believe his
Grace has on more than one occasion bad an unsuccess-
ful shot. Being a strong bird and usually flying very
high it required some considerable force to kill him. On
Friday lea, however, Mr. Ottley, who was in a
plantation in Arundel-park, between Bevis's Grave and
the walnut trees, had a good shot, and succeeded in
wounding him. The bird struggled considerably, and
at length perched on a tree, from which he was
soon levelled, and taken to the Certif., where, by
direction of his Grace the Duke of Norfolk, he was
laid oat to be shown to any one who chose to go and
eatsee
