CORN EXCHANGE.

The show of English wheat in to-day's market WAS very
moderate, and in poor condition. The attendance of mil-
lers was far from numerous, and the demand for all kinds
of wheat of home produce was in a sluggish state, at Mon-
day's currency.

Only 2,120 qrs. of foreign wheat have come in, yet the
show of samples, ex-granary, was extensive. Only a
limited business was passing, but we have no change to
notice in the quotations.
Fliating cargoes commanded very little attention.
There was a slight improvement in the demand for bar-
ley, but malt met a doll inquiry, on former terms.
The show of oats was only moderate. The trade, how-
ever, was inactive, at Monday's prices. Beans, peas, and
flour moved off slowly, on former terms. The imports o f
American flour have ben large.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

The supply of beasts here to-day was very moderate.
The demand, however, for all breeds ruled somewhat
heavy, at Monday's quotations. We had a limited show
of sheep, yet the mutton trade was in a sluggish state, at
about stationary prices. The general quality of the stock
was superior. There was a slow sale for calves, but no
change took place in their value. Pigs moved off heavily,
at late rates. Mulch cows commanded scarcely any at-
tention.

BOROUGH HOP.

Our market is well supplied with all kinds of hops, both
pew and yearlings. Fine qualities are iu fair request, at
hill prices, but other kinds command very little attention.
