CORN EXCHANGE.

The arrivals of English wheat fresh up to-day, coastwise
and by lend-carriage, were moderately extensive, and in
fair average condition, honce the show of samples was
tolerably good. Millers, generally, showed no disposition
to purchase beyond actual wants, and the demand for both
red and white qualities was extremely inactive at a decline
in the quotations, compared with Monday se'nnight, of
from ld to 2d per quarter.

We were well supplied with nearly all kinds of foreign
wheat. Good and fine samples wore mostly held at full
prices; but the demand generally was heavy, and inferior
qualities were lower to purchase.
Floating cargoes of grain, off Falmouth, were very dull.
The show of both English and foreign barley was only
moderate. Most kinds were in fair request, and last week's
prices were supported.

Tho malt trade was in a healty state, and prices were well
supported.
We have to report a slow sale for oats, at barely last
week's currency.

New beans were dull, and quite 2s. per quarter lower than
on Monday last. Peas, however, moved off steadily at full
quotations.
The flour trade was inactive, at about previous rates.

To-day's market was scantily supplied with foreign stock;
but the general quality of the Dutch sheep was remarkably
prime.

Compared with Monday last, there was a considerable
deficiency in the arrivals of homefed beasts, and the quality
of most breeds was inferior. The attendance of buyers was
not very numerous, yet prime beasts, from their scarcity,
sold readily at quite 2d per Sibs more money. Inferior
stock commanded full quotations. Some Scots and crosses
produced 5s 4d per Sibs.

From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton-
shire, we received received 2,000 short horns and crosses;
from other parts of England 300 of various breeds; from
Scotland, 131 Scots and crosses ; and from Ireland 700 oxen
and heifers.

With sheep we were very scantily supplied. Prime
Downs and half-breeds changed hands readily, at fully last
Monday's currency. Otherwise, the mutton trade was in-
active on former terms.
Calves—the supply of which was only moderate—were
in fair request, at full prices.
There was a steady sale for pigs, at fully the late advance
in the quotations.

I iThe supplies of wheat on sale in most of the country
markets held on Saturday were only moderate. For both
red and white qualities the demand ruled heavy, on rather
easier terms. Barley moved off slowly, at barely the late
advance. In other grain the transactions were limited.
Both 031 the Continent and in the United States, although
the supplies have continued extensive, wheat and flour have
produced more money.
Up to our market, last week, the arrivals of English
grain were only moderate. The imports from abroad

amounted 13,572 quarters of wheat, 13,907 barley, 30,646
oats, 1,20 rye, 1,494 beans, 460 peas, 20,638 linseed, 11,092
rapeseed, 370 sundry seeds, 60 sacks and 2,250 barrels of
flour.
