MARKET NEW3.—(This Day.)

CORN EXCHANGE.
Most of the country markets held on Saturday were fairly
supplied with wheat, and the trade ruled heavy, at droop-
ing prices. Fine barley realised full quotations. All
other kinds of produce met a dull inquiry.
The French markets have continued very inactive for
both wheat and flour, on lower terms. In Germany, the
grain trade has continued heavy, and, in the United
States, prices have fallen to a shipping point.
The arrivals of home-grown produce up to our market
last week were on the increase, and the imports from
abroad were liberal, viz., 30,216 qu Irters of wheat, 9,389
barley, 30,843 oats, 503 beans, 830 peas, 9,550 linseed, 590.
rapeseed, 170 mustard seed, 1,210 sundry seeds, 207 sacks
and 3,765 barrels of flower.
The arrivals of English wheat fresh up to our market
to-day were only moderate, and, owing to the continu-
ance of damp weather, many of the samples were somewhat
out of condition. The attendance of millers was by no
means numerous, and the demand for all kinds of wheat
of home produce ruled heavy, at a decline in the quota-
tions realised on Monday last of fully 2s. per quarter. The
Kentish stands were not cleared at a late hour.
There was rather an increase in the show of foreign
wheat, and the bulk of the late arrival consists of good
_ .

elund useable qualities.—The trade ruled heavy in the
extreme, and the few sales effected were at a fall in value
compared with this day son'night, of from is to fully 2s
per quarter.

Floating cargoes of grain were much less active, but no.

Fine barley sold to a moderato extent, at full prices ;
but grinding and distilling sorts were heavy, and quite 1■
per quarter cheaper.
Malt sold almost wholly in retail quantities at last
week's prices. _ _

Wo were well supplied with oats, is which there was
much less activity. Good sound parcels supported previ-
ous rates, but damp qualities gave way 6d to is per qr.
The few beans on offer ruled dull, at barely stationary
prices.

In peas very little was doing, at late rates.
The flour trade was dull, and country marks were fully
is per 280 lbs lower.
