KAIZET NEWS.—(r his Day,)

CORN EXCHANGE.
Fresh up, to-day, the receipts of English wheat were
again very moderate. The attendance of buyers was far
from numerous, yet the demand for all kinds of wheat of
home produce ruled steady, and Monday's prices were well
supported.
The importe of foreign wheat are only 520 quarters.
That article was firm in price; but the business doing in
it was by no means extensive.
Floating cargoes of grain commanded full currencies.
The supply of barley was limited, and the trade ruled
steady, at, very full pricer.
Malt—the show of which was only moderate—moved off
slowly, at late rates.

Oats were rather dearer than on Monday, and the value
of beans, peas, and flour was well supported.
