MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN-EXCHANGE-MONDAY.

_ _ _ • _ _
The principal country markets held on Saturr4ay were
but moderately supplied with both English and Foreign
Wheat. Fine qualities were in moderate request, at
full prices. In the middling and inferior kinds compa-
ratively little was doing. All spring Corn ruled dull,
and in some instances the quotations had a downward
tendency. The latest advices from the United States
represent the Grain and Flour trade as steady. In the
continental ports very little has been doing in Grain,
the quotations of which have given way Is per quarter.
Up to our market last week the arrivals of English
Grain were moderate. From abroad we received
6,920 quarters of Wheat; 19,414 ditto of Barley;_
29,705 ditto of Oats; 200 ditto of Rye; 3,361 ditto of
Beans; 869 ditto of Peas; 1,136 ditto of Tares; 332 ditto
of Linseed; 546 ditto of Hap.-seed; 9 ditto Mustardseed;
76 ditto sundry Seeds; 1,992 sacks and 220 brls of Flour.
The quantity of English Wheat received fresh up to our
market io•day coastwise, was small. By land carriage
and sample, the receipts of that grain were trifling in
the extreme. As has been the case for some time past,
the stands were very scantily supplied with parcels of
home-grown Wheat, the quality of which was, how.
over, arising from the fineness of the weather, unusually
gond. The supply from Essex was speedily cleared off,
and in same instances rather more money, say is per
quarter, was obtained by tho factors for the finest white.
In all other kinds a steady business was transacted, at
fully last week's quotations. Offers still continue to
reach us from the east coast, to ship Wheats at ruling
currencies. The show of fresh foreign Wheat
was but moderate, but that of granaried samples
was good. Fine qualities commanded a steady,
though not t r say brisk, inquiry, at very full prices.
The middling and inferior descriptions were in moderate
reqiiest, at late rates. We were fairly supplied with
English Barley. That of foreign was very extensive.
All kinds were a dull inquiry, at a decline in the quota-
tions of is per quarter, at which very little progress was
made in sales. The quantity of Malt offering was con-
siderably in excess of the d-mand, which ruled heavy,
at barely the late decline in value. Home-grown Oats
were in very moderate supply. That of foreign was ex-
tensive. The Oat trade ruled heavy, at a fall in value of
Is per quarter, and the bulk of the supply remained un-
sold. Although the supply of Beans was not large, that
grain gave way Is per quarter, with a very dull inquiry.
Peas moved off slowly; but we have no decline to notice
in the quotations. Indian Corn, Meal, and Flour com-
manded very little attention.

A further slight increase ha: taken place in the im-
portations cf foreign stcck into London. Since Monday
last they have amounted to 1,720 head. During the
corresponding period in 1849 they comprised 1,944, and
at the same time i❑ 1848, 893 head. The anr.exed state-
ment shows the quarters whence the stock has been
derived.

By sea, from Ireland, 131 Beasts, 48 Sheep, 30 Calves,
and 72 Pigs have reached us. At the various outports
only about 700 head of stock have been landed. Net-
withstanding that the last two cargoes of Si anieh Beasts
are reported to have bee❑ disposed of at a loss of fully
20 per ceat., we understand that further importations
are about to take place. This stock is by no means in
favour with the butchers, owing to its Lad weighing
qualities. Should the present high prices continue in
Holland, we may reasonably expect a filling off i❑ the
arrivals of Sheep this year from that quarter. It is, how-
ever, well known that the evadable supplies of both
Beasts and Sheep on the Continent are large, and that
there is an extensive surplus fit for export.
The supply of foreign Beasts on offer to-day was good—
that of Sheep and Calves very moderate. From our
own grazing districts the arrivals of Beasts fresh up
I were seasonably extensive, and of full average quality.
The primest Scots, Herefords, &c., were in somewhat
improved request, at prices quite equal to those obtained
on Monday last, the highest figure for Beef being 3s 6d
per Blbs., but all other breeds moved off heavily at barely
late rates. However, as the weather was very cold, a
clearance was effected, though at a late hour. From
Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we re-
ceived 2,100 Short-horns and Scots; from all other parts
of England 700 Herefords, Runts, Devons, &c.; and
fr, en Scotland 200 Horned and Polled Scots.
There was a further decided increase i❑ the number of
Sheep, at least a moiety (.f which were out of the wool.
All breeds met a very inactive demand. Tie primest old
Downs were mostly disposed of at about stationary
prices, but all other Sheep declined in value 2d per
elbg. Lambs were in good supply, and sluggish inquiry,
at late rotes, viz., from 5s to 6: per BltiF. In Calves,
comparatively little business was transacted, at about
stationary prices. The Pork trade was heavy, but we
have uo change to notice in the currencies.

Comparatively speaking, our markets continue to be
well supplied with both town and country-killed Meat,
but its quality is by no means good. Prime Lamb is
selling steadily, at full prices. Otherwise, the demand
is in a sluggish state. and late rates aro with difficulty
supported. About 700 carcases of foreign Meat slaugh.
