Is 61d ;per lb. Privately, Ehglish wool is only saleable at
lower prices. Last week's imports R ere 7,175 balea from
Sydney, 1,660 from Port Philip, 1,033 from New Zealand,
and 1,146 from Algoa Bay.

Fresh up to this morning's market the arrivals of Eng-
lish wheat were considerably on the increase, and the ge-
neral samples on offer were tolerably:good. For all good
and fine qualities there was a steady demand at prices
equal to those realised on Monday last; but inferior kinds
moved off slowly, on former terms.

The show of foreign wheat was moderately good. Ame-
rican parcels were in fair demand, for export to France, at
an advance on last week's currency ; but in other descrip-
tions the transactions were for the most part in retail, at
late rates.

Floating cargoes of grain were in steady request, and the
quotations were well supported. There was some demand
on Frerich account. _

The barley trade was in a sluggish state, yet there is no
change to notice in prices compared with last week.
Good and fine malt maintained its value, with a moderate
demand. Inferior kinds moved off slowly at former prices.
We were moderately supplied with oats, and the trade
ruled steady, at an advance compared with Monday last of
6d per quarter for all good and fine samples.
Both beans and peas were a dull inquiry, and prices were
barely supported.

Most kinds of lour were in steady request, and previous
rates were fairly maintained.

TALLOW.
Our market continues very dull, and prices have further
declined. To-day P.Y.C. is quoted at 46s to 47s per cwt.,
both on the spot and for the last three months' delivery.
Rough fat, 2s 6d per 81bs.

The leading country markets held on Saturday were
scantily supplied with wheat, and all good and fine
qualities sold stoadily, at very full prices. Oats were rather
dearer, and the value of beans and peas was well supported.
Flour moved off steadily, at full quotations.
Throughout the Continent, the demand for wheat on
English account having fallen off, prices have had a droop-
ing tendency. In the United States, however, the down-
ward movement in the value of product) has been checked.
Up to our market, last week, the arrivals of English
grain were very small. From abroad, we received 20,293
quarters of wheat; 6,730 barley; 8,687 oats; 3,620 peas;
250 linseed ; 320 rapeseed ; 1,700 maize ; 140 sundry seeds,
and 9,322 barrels of flour.
