11A MKT NEWS.—(This Day,)

CORN EXCHANGE.
Only a small supply of English wheat, almost wholly of
the new crop, has come fresh to band this week, coastwise
and by land carriage. To-day the show of samples was
limited. Owing to the change in the weather some of the
factors refused to sell, except on higher terms. The de-
mand, however, was by no means active, yet prices gene-
rally were wall supported.
Foreign wheat, the import of which 7:8 5,820 quarters,
moved off slowly, at Monday's currency. The show of
samples was good.
There was rather a better feeling in the barley trade, at
extreme rates.
Malt changed hands to a fair extent, at last week's cur-
rency.
Oats were tolerably firm, but not dearer. The supply
was moderate.
Beans, peas, and flour sold at Monday's quotations.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

To-day's market was very moderately supplied with
beasts, chiefly in poor condition ; nevertheless, all breeds
moved off slowly at barely Monday's currency. The
top quotation was 4s 6,1 per 81bs. The show of sheep
was tolerably good, and the mutton trade was rather
heavy. In prices, however, no change took place. We
had a slow inquiry for lambs, and, in some instances,
the quotations gave way 2d per 81bs. Prime calves
realised full prices, with a fair demand; but inferior
qualities of veal were dull. In pigs and mulch cows
very little busines was transacted.
