MARKET

COS EXCHANGE.
In the leading country markets held on Saturday the
fluctuations in the value of wheat were comparatively
trifling, and the demand was chiefly confined to imme•
diate wants. All spring corn was firm in price.
The continental markets have exhibited very few
changes of late. Wheat has ruled inactive ; but spring
corn has sold at ful: quotations.
Only moderate supplies of English grain were received
up to our market last week. The imports from abroad
were 11,137 quarters of wheat ; 6,360 barley ; 37,469 oats ;
211 beans ; 288 peas ;15 tares ; 3,010 linseed ; 943 rape-
seed ; 280 mustard seed ; 2,175 sundry seeds ; 54 sacks and
194 barrels of flour.
Fresh up to-day a vary moderate supply of English
wheat came to band, coastwise and by land-carriage, but
its general condition was good. As a clearance was effected
on Friday, the stands vane rather scantily filled with sam-
ples, owing to which, and to a fair average attendance of
buyers, the demand for all kinds ruled steady, at fully last
Monday's currency, tc a slight advance in prices.
Thera was a fair show of foreign wheat, fresh as well as
ex-granary. On the whole, a steady business was trans•
acted in most qualities, and prices generally were well
supported.
Floating cargoes of grain were sold at full quotations ;
but the business done was not extensive.
We wore fairly supplied with both English and foreign
barley, in which a good business was transacted at last
week's quotations. Inferior qualities, however, were le

cheaper.
Fine malt was in moderate request at full prices ; but
other kinds meet a dull inquiry at the late decline.
Although the show of foreign oats was extensive, the
oat trade ruled steady, at full prices.
Beans and peas— -the supplies of which were by no means
extensive —move,' off steadily at last week's currency.
The flour trade was firm, and prices were well supported.

Compared with some previous weeks the show of foreign
stock in to•day's market was only moderate. Some of the
beasts and sheep sold at high prices.
From our own grazing districts the arrivals of beasts
fresh up this morning were tolerably good in number, but
their general quality was by no meals first-rate. Most
breeds wore in good request, an I, in some instances, the
primest Scots, &c., wore rather dearer—the top figure be-
ing 55. ;er Ribs. ; otherwise, the beef trade ruled steady,
at full prices.
The arrivals from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire;and North-
amptonshire amounted to 2,500 short horns ; from other
parts of Eqgland 300 of various breeds; and from Ireland

330 oxen.
We were again very scantily supplied with sheep, in the
condition of which there was no improvement. Nearly all
breeds were in good request, and last Monday's improve-
ment in value was welt supported. The primest Downs
sold at quite 54 6,1 per Sibs.
There were very few calves in the market, awl the veal
trade rulad brisk at 41 per 81bs above the currencies paid
on Monday last.
We had a steady demand for pigs at very full prices.
The supply was only moderate.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.--(This Day.)

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.)

IN BE DOCIREE.

This bankrupt was described as a wine and spirit mer-
chant, of the Shakepeare's Head, Perceval-street, Gos-
well-road, and to-day came up to pass an account,
prepared by Messrs. Paul and Turner, from which it
appeared that the debts are only 7081. 13g., and that
the property has realised net 2131. There was a loss cf
6331. 12a., from the depreciation in the ♦alue of the
lease, &c., which cost the bankrupt 1,0001. about 12
months since.

Mr. Chidley appeared for the bankrupt, and the official
assignee being satisfied with the accounts, the bankrupt
parsed.
