CORN EXCHANGE.

The arrivals of English wheat to this morning's market
wore rather extensive, and, for the time of the year, the
supply of the new samples was large,. For these the de-
mand ruled steady, at from 56s to 66s per quarter, but old
parcels were quite unsaleable, even at a considerable reduc-
tion in value.

The show of foreign wheat was large. Good and fine
descriptions fairly supported previous rates; otherwise, the
quotations ruled somewhat easier.
Floating cargoes of grain were in fair request, at late
currencies. _

The trade for barley was dull, at barely late rates. New
malting was obtainable at fron 35s to 40s per quarter.
In malt very little was doing, on former terms.
All kinds of oats were a dull sale, and Russian qualities
were quite 6d per quarter cheaper.
Beans were scarce, and sold at previous rates. New
white peas 40s, and new grey ditto 38s to 4s, per quarter.
The flour trade was dull, and prices had a downward
tendency.

SHOCKING MURDER AT IROJIE.

FRONIE, TUESDAY.

Mr. Bruges Fry, county coroner, opened an in-
quiry to-day into the circumstances attending the
death of Uriah Greenland, aged 24, who was mur-
dered by his uncle Byard Greenland, as recorded
in this paper yesterday.
The prisoner was not present, having been re-
manded yesterday to Shepton Mallet gaol by order
of the magistrates. This circumstance occasioned
strong comment on the part of the coroner and jury,
) and it was ultimately decided to adjourn the inquiry
in order to allow the prisoner to hear the evidence
adduced against him.
During the examination of Millgrove, P.C. Cooke
arrived in theNroom with the important information
that the handle of the knife had been found, but the
blade was broken and has not yet been found.
The knife handle was then put into the hand of
the witness, and he said that, although he could
not swear it was the one he had seen in the hand of
the prisoner, it was very much like it.
Mr. Benjamin Malian], surgeon, said, on the
morning of Sunday last, at 10 minutes past 12 a.m.,
I was called up by the last witness, and requested
to go to Murtree.gate, as a man had been stabbed.
I went immediately and arrived at half-past 12.
The deceased was alone in a sitting posture quite
dead, but warm. Mr. Gane, the gatekeeper, came
up with a lantern, and I then examined the de-
ceased's breast, and found a wound. Farmer
Beauchamp's son came up with a horse and cart.
From what I had beard, I asked him to take the
horse out of the cart, and proceed to Buckland, and
tell the policeman there that a man had been mur-
dered by Byard Greenland, and to arrest him. 1
sent Millgrove back to Frome for a policeman.
When the officer arrived I left the deceased in his
charge, and went down to the gate and examined
all the scythes and reaphooks with a magnify-
ing glass, but found nothing but dry dust on
any of them. I then had a pair of trucks and
a hurdle on which I had the deceased laid and
brought to his house. In consequence of a tele-
graphic message received from the coroner yester-
day, I made a post-mortem examination of the body
at five o'clock, 42 hours after death. I found an
incised wound five-eighths of an inch long, on the
left side of the chest, between the second and third
ribs, an inch and a half from the breast bone. The
bag of the heart and the upper portion of the heart,
called the aotic arch, were pierced through. This
was the cause of the death. The knife passed
through soft parts only, so that there was not suffi-
cient resistance to break the blade from the handle.
The only other witness examined was Mr. (lane,
the gatekeeper, who repeated the testimony he
gave yesterday.
The Coroner then adjourned the inquiry till to-
morrow at ten o'clock, P. C. Watts being instruc-
ted to communicate to the magistrates the wishes
of the Coroner and Jury, that the prisoner should
have an opportunity of being present at the investi-
gation.
Diligent search is being made by the police for
the blade of the knife.
