MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE—MONDAY.
Nearly the whole of the country Corn markets held
CB Saturday were well supplied with English Wheat,
for which the demand ruled heavy, at drooping prices.
Fine Barley and Oats were scarce, and quite as dear;
but most other articles were lower to purcnase, although
the supplies were not to say ext naive.
Later accounts from New York represent the demand
for Flour on English account as steady. There are now
nearly 200,000 barrels on the way from the various
American markets. In the Baltic and Black Sea mar-
kets only a limited business has been doing in Grain;
but in France large parcels of Flour continue to change
hands for shipment to England.
Up to our market, last week, the arrivals of English
Wheat and Barley were on the increase; and nearly
10,000 quarters of Oats reached us from Ireland. The
imports from abroad amounted to 33,585 quarters of
Wheat, 6,637 of Barley, 15,933 of Oats, 3,612 of Beans,
1,47 1 of Peas, 340 of Tares, 9,718 of Linseed, 2,553 of
Rapeseed, 112 of Mustard Seed, 559 of sundry Seeds,
and 3,9 2 2 sacks of Flour.
Up to our market today, coastwise, the arriva's of
English Wheat were moderately good, and of fair ave-
rage quality. The principal portion of the supply was
derived from Essex and Kent. By land carriage and
sample the receipts were by no means extensive.
Although the stands exhibited a fair show of parcels of
both red and white, the demand for all kinds of Wheat
of home produce, as the attendance of both town and
country buyers was on the increase, and as the pressure
of foreign manufactured Flour was less heavy than for
some weeks past, ruled steady, at prices quite equal to
those obtained on Monday last, and at which a fair
clearance was effected.
We received several offers from the East coast to ship
Wheats at present prices; but the amount of business
doing for forward delivery was small.
Notwithstanding that the quantity of foreign Wheat
on show was considerably on the increase, fine parcels
sold steadily, at very full prices. The middling and in-
ferior kinds were a slow sale, but held at last week's
currencies.
The supply of really fine Barley was comparatively
small; however, the sale for it ruled steady, at fully pre-
vious rates. Grinding and distilling sorts moved off
slowly, but we have no actual fall to notice in their value.
Although the quantity of Malt ready for delivery
was trifling, that article commanded very little attention,
at late rates.
The quantity of Oats was on the increase, neverthe-
less a steady business was doing, at last week's quo-
tations. The arrivals from Ireland are in good condition.
In Beans very few transactions took place, at late
figures.
White Peas were Is to 2s, and grey is per quarter
lower than on Monday last.
There was rather more inquiry for Flour, and prices
were well supported.

SIVIXTIMIELD.
Full average time-of-year supplies of foreign stock
have arrived in the port a London during the pat week.
The total importatwn has amounted to 7,352 h( ad.
During the corresponding period in 1849 it did not ex-
ceed 5,092 head against 3,860 in 1848, and 3,893 in 1847.

At the outports the arrivals continue small, those during
the week having been confined to about 900 head. Both
the Beasts and Sheep are arriving in tolerably good
condition. The Pigs are of much better quality than
those received last year, yet they are not worth more
than 3s per Sibs. Letters from Holland still represent
the available supply of stock , especially Sheep, as large.
There is, therefore, no prospect of any materiel falling
e.ff in the arrivals for this market, notwithstanding that
prices are very low. From inland, by sea, only 13 oxen
and 1 calf have come to hand since our last report,
and those scarcely fit fur the London market.
Large numbers of foreign Beasts and Sheep, including
several cargoes landed this morning, were on sale in to-
day's market, but their general quality was inferior.
There was a considerable increase in the arrival of
Beasts fresh up from our own grazing districts, but at
least two-thirds of them were beneath average quality.
Newgete and Leadenhall markets being somewhat
heavily supplied, the Beef trade here, to-day, was in a
very depressed state. From their scarcity, the primest
Scots were mostly disposed of at last week's quotations,
viz, 3s 8d to 3s 10d per Sibs but all other breeds
were quite 2d per 81bs lower, and a clearance was
not effected. From Lincolushire, Leicestershire, and
Northamptonshire, we received about 3,500 short
horns, &c., and from other parts of England, 500
Herefords, runts, Devons, ,&e, The remainder of
the Bullock supply was chiefly derived from abroad.
The numbers of Sheep were considerably in excess of
those exhibited for some weeks past. The butchers,
therefore, purchased with extreme caution. However,
the primest old Downs—the supply of which was small
—moved cff slowly, at the prices of Menday last, viz.,
43 to 4s 2d per Sibs; but half-breds, Leicesters, Lin-
coins, bents, &c., were exceedingly inactive, and quite
2d per Blbs lower than last week. Notwithstanding that
the supply of Calves was limited, the Veal trade ruled
heavy, at barely stationary prices. There was less in-
quiry for Pigs than last ',seek; nevertheless, the quota-
tions were mostly eupported.

For the time of year, rather large supplies of country-
killed Meat have arrived no to our tnarkets this week;
they having exceeded 1.500 carcases, chiefly of Beef,
Mutton, and Pork. With London-slaughtered Meat we
have been moderately well supplied. Generally speak-
ing, the demand has ruled inactive, and prices have been
with difficulty supper ed. From 1,800 to '2,000 carcase s
of foreign Meat have been disposed of.

BOROUGH AND SPITALFIELDS.
Since this da3 se'linight arrivals of Potatoes for these
markets, wholly by land carriage, have not exceeded
2,000 tons, chiefly from Essex and Kent. The quality of
the supply on off( r to-day is decidedly good. On the
whole the demand is somewhat active, at an advance in
the quotations of fully 5s per ton. The imports have
amounted to 180 bags 5 baskets from Rotterdam, and 2
hhds from Adelaide. As Potato raising is:Dow general
in Holland, large supplies will shortly arrive from that
quarter.
