CORN EXCHANGE.

The country markets held on Saturday 'were, for the
most part, but moderately supplied with wheat, in which
about an average business was transacted. Prices were
supported without difficulty. Barley sold briskly, and
fine parcels were rather dearer. In other articles, scarcely
any change took place.
The continental markets come steady for wheat, but the
business doing in that article is very moderate. From the
United States our advices are firm.

Very limited supplies of English grain were received up
to our market last week. From abroad, the imports were
14,294 quarters of wheat, 3,971 barley, 7,851 oats, 1,400
rye, 47 beans, 390 peas, 1,020 tares, 640 linseed, 3,770
rapeseed, 1,078, sacks, and 2,828 barrels of flour.
The supply of English wheat received fresh up to our
market this morning, coastwise and by land carriage, was
very moderate, consequently the stands were rather
scantily filled with samples. Some portion of the supply
came to baud in good condition, but the bulk of it was in-
ferior. The attendance of millers was by no means nume-
rous, yet most of the show of home-grown wheat was
cleared off, at prices about equal to those realised on Mon-
day last.
Fine foreign wheats were rather more inquired for on
former terms, but the business passing in them was com-
paratively small. Low and damp parcels met a dull in.
quiry, on former terms.
Floating cargoes of grain were dull, but not cheaper.
We had an active demand for malting barley, at a far-
ther improvement in value of ls. per quarter. Grinding
and distilling sorts sold on former terms.
The malt trade was rather active, at fully last week's
quotations.
The show of oats was very moderate. Good sound
corn moved off steadily. at fully last Monday's quotations.
Other descriptions were less active.

Beans were in moderate supply, and fair request, at

late rates.

PREFERENCE SHARES.

FUNERAL OF TBE ARCHBISHOP OF PARIS.

Before eight o'clok the bells of the various churches
of Paris began tolling, and loud atiove all was heard the
bourden of Notre Dame. At about eight, though the
weather was unfavourable, being cold and damp, with
rain, or rather ill melted snow, fallibg, numbers of people
collected on the sides of the streets, quays, and bridges
along which the procession was to pa,Qs, and others stood
at the windows of the houses along the line. By the
same hour the troops destined to take part in the pro-
cession collected in the vicinity of the archiepiscopal
palace.
