MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE—(MONDAY).
Although the supplies of English Wheat on sale iu the
leading country markets, held on Saturday, were small,
the demand for that grain ruled very inactive, at barely
stationary prices. Fine foreign Wheats were mostly
held at it'll currencies. There was rather more doing
in Barley, especially malting parcels. No change took
place in Oats or Flour; but Beans and Peas were lower
to purchase.
Letters from New York, to the 30th ult., state that the
Grain and Flour markets were dull, without material
change in the quotations. There was rather more doing
in Wheat. at Danizic, on the 2nd inst. Throughout
France, Holland, and Belgium, the trade continues dull.
Up to our markets last week, the arrivals of English
Grain were small; but a fair quantity of Oats came to
hand from Ireland. The imports from abroad, amounted
to 4,150 quarters of Wheat; 3,996 Oats; 3,871 Beans;
35 Peas; 32 Tares; 6,975 Linseed; 165 Rapeseed; 336
Mustard Seed; 2,126 Sundry Seeds; 4,576 sacks and
3,705 brie. Flour.
Fresh up to this morning's market a very limited sup-
ply of Wheat recached us from Essex and Kent coast-
wise. From Lincolnshire, Cambridgeshire, and Suffolk,
several came to hand, per railway, in very middling
condition. The show of samples of both red and white
Wheat of home produce was comparatively small; how-
ever, the demand for all descriptions, especially as we
had au increased number of buyers in attendance, ruled
steady, at prices quite equal to those obtained on Mon-
day last, and at which a good clearance was effected.
Several offers came to hand to ship Wheats from the
east coast at previous quotations; but the large arrivals
of foreign Flour induced great caution on the part of the
millers and others.
The quantity of fresh Foreign Wheat on show was
comparatively small; but we were well supplied ex gra-
nary. Selected parcels of white moved off freely at full
rates of currency. In the middling and interior kinds
very little was doing.
With English Flour we were scantily supplied, but the
show of both French and American was extensive. On
the whole rather a large business was doing in most
kinds, and late rates were well supported.
The few parcels of malting Barley brought forward
were speedily disposed of at an advance in the quotations
of ls. per quarter. Grinding and distilling sorts moved
off freely at fully previous rates.
There was rather more inquiry for Malt, the supply
of which was very moderate, and late currencies were
well supported.
Good fresh Oats were firm and quite as dear. In the
value of damp and out-of-condition qualities no change
took place.
The demand for Beans ruled very inactive at late
figures. The supply of foreign was extensive.
All kinds of Peas moved off slowly, but we have no
change to notice in their quotations.
Indian Corn was mostly held at full prices, but the de-
mand for it was inactive.

Nearly 10,000 carcases of meat have reached theEe
markets since this day se'nnight, from various parts of
England, while the supplies offering killed in the metro-
polis have been seasonably large. The mildness of the
weather, aided by the extensive arrivals, has produced
great heaviness in the demand, and prices have had a
downward tendency. From Llamburgh nine packages of
Beef and Mutton have come to hand.

From the above it will be perceived that the total arriva
since our last has amounted to 6,072 head, against 4,412
during the same period in 1649; 4,084 in 1848; 11.13 d
4,950 in 1847. Out of the 945 Sheep from Nieu 1)109
79 died on the passage. Letters from our large grazing,
districts state that most of the farms are heavily stocked
with both Beasts and Sheep; but the arrivals hitherto

during the season have exhibited a slight deficiency.
Food is ,very abundant and cheap, and very few serious
cases of disease have presented themselves for some time
past. Beef and Mutton, as well as Veal and Pork, are
still selling at higher rates in Holland than in this
country; yet the facilities which this market affords the
Dutch graziers of obtaining supplies of silver appear
to be the great inducements to ship largely. The
imports of foreign stock into the Unitr,d Kingdom,
during the first nine months of 1849 and 1850, were as
under--

The greatest increase took place in the month cf Sep-
tember in this year. The number of foreign Beasts and
Sheep on offer in to-day's market was good, but that of
Calves and Pigs was limited. With home-fed Beasts,
we were very scantily supplied as to number, while their
general quality was unusually inferior. The weather
being more favourable for slaughtering, and the attend-
ance of both London and country buyers large,
the Beef trade ruled steady, at an advance in the
quotations of Monday last of full 2d per Sibs, and
a good clearance was effected. The primest Scots
sold steadily, at from 3s 10d to 4s per Sibs.
From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton-
shire, we received about 2,600 short horns; from other
parts of England 400 of various kinds—the remainder
of the Bullock supply being derived from abroad and
the neighbourhood of London. There was a decided
falling off in the supply of English-fed Sheep, but they
were mostly in good condition. For all breeds the cle-
maed ruled somewhat active, and the currencies im-
proved quite 2d per 81bs. The primest Old Downs
realised 4a to 4s 2d per Blbs. Very few Calves were
on offer, while the Veal trade was steady at 2d per
Sibs more money. There was more business doing in
pigs, the prices of which had, in some instances, an up-
ward tendency.

During last week the arrivals of Potatoes, coastwise
and by land carriage, were upwards of 4,000 tons,
wholly in good condition. From Rotterdam we received
148 bags 47 baskets; from Jersey, 7 tons; and from
Ireland, 6 barrels. On the whole the demand is in a
slnggibh state, but no material change can be noticed in
the quotations.

BOROUGH HOP MARIEHT.
We have a moderate inquiry for the best new Hops,
at full prices, but all other kinds are a slow sale, at
barely late rates. The market is heavily supplied with
all descriptions. Factors' prices:—New East Kent
pockets, 95s to 1455; New Mid Kent ditto, 88s to 1265;
New Weald of Kent ditto, 78s to 821; New Sussex ditto,
65s to 783; New Farnhanis, 120 s to 160 s per cwt.

The accounts from the manufacturing districts being
favourable, and the market scantily supplied, the de-
mend for most kinds of Wool is decidedly firm, at very
full prices. Last week's imports into London amounted
to 61 bales from Ilamburgb, 41 from Buenos Ayres,
1,572 from Sydney, 15 from Smyrna, 149 from Alex-
andria, and 16 bags from Ireland.
