Tho whole of the country market,3 held on Saturday
were heavy for wheat, and prices gave way ls. to 2s. per
quarter. Fine malting barley was mostly held at full
prices ; but other kinds were dull and drooping. All other
spring corn sold heavily, at barely late rates.
The continental markets still rule heavy for wheat, on
easier terms, although the supplies on offer era not exten-
sive. Our American advices state that ordinary shipping
brands of flour may bo purchased at New York at 182. per
barrel.

Only moderate supplies of English produce were re-
ceived up to our market last week. The imports from
broad were 17,751 quarters of wheat, 13,636 barley,
53,398 oats, 825 beans, 500 peas, 3,615 linseed, 1,850 rape-
seed, 185 mustard-seed, 5,560 sundry seeds, and 500 sacks
and 100 barrels of flour.

The quantity of English wheat arrived fresh up to our
market this morning from Essex, was only moderate•
From Kent the supply was tolerably good, but the majo-
rity of the samples were out of condition owing to the
long prevailing damp weather. The attendance of millers
was only moderate, and the demand for xll kinds arising
fromthe prospect of large shipments of flour being made to
this country from France, ruled heavy, at a decline in the
quotations realised on Monday last of from 2s to 38 per
quarter.
There was an extensive show of foreign wheat, and im-
porters generally were sellers on lower terms. Very few
transactions took place, and prices were is to 2s per qr.
lower than last week.

Floating cargoes of grain were dull, and rather drooping.
We were well supplied with barloy, and the trade, con-
sequently, ruled heavy. Fine malting samples sold at last
week's currency. Grinding and distilling sorts were irre-
gular in price, the decline being le to 2s per quarter.
There was very lit ile business doing in malt, at barely
the late decline in value.

We were extensively supplied with oats, and all kinds,
4xcept the finest parcels, were 6d to is per quarter
cheaper.

Beaus changed hands slowly, at about previous rates.
In peas, very little was doing, at last week's currency.
The flour trade ruled heavy, and country marks were
fully is per 2801135. cheaper.
