CORN.

The corn trade wears a quiet aspect, and with some in-
crease of supplies ; the general tendency of prices is in
buyers' favour, without amounting, however, to any seri-
ous depression, as there is nothing in the statistical posi-
tion of the trade to alter previous opinions as to the ulti-
mate course of prices with the advance of the season.
From the country markets the reports speak of a quiet
tone, with a decline of is to 2s per quarter on wheats, and
easier rates for other grain.
At Mark-lane, this morning, there was a fair attend-
ance, but the trade ruled quiet, and sales of wheat could
hardly be effected 11121885 at easier rates, but frosh arrivals
of samples in stock being light, sales were not pressed.
About is decline may, however, be quoted.
Foreign wheat was relatively well held, and the market
opened with sellers asking last Monday's rates. This
checked sales, and eventually easier rates were in some in-
stances accepted, say about is per qr.
Flour met a quiet sale, without material change in quo-
tations.

Malt quoted as before, but tho demand confined to the
better qualities.

Barley moved off slowly, at about previous advances.
Beans sold in retail at late gates.
NEWGATE AND LEADENIIALL.

MEAT. —The dead meat markets presented rather a
firmer tone this morning generally, although trade was not
active. Prime small Scotch mutton realised 2d per et. more,
say, 3s 2d to 4s 4d ; large fat sheep, 33 8d to 3s 10d ; ewe,
3s 2d to 33 4d. Beef, best, are 4s to 4s 2d;
3s 6d to 3s 8d ; inferior, 3s to 3s 401, rather a dull sale.
Veal scarce, 4s 4d to 5e 4d. Pork dull, 3s 4d to 4d per
stone of 81bs by tho carcase.
METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

The supplies of the principal kinds of stook this morn-
ing were rather short, and the tone of the trade was firm
without being very brisk.

The number of beasts on sale was 3,460, including 1,966
English, 461 Scotch, 280 Irish, and 750 foreign. For the
bettor kinds there was a fair demand, but prices tended
against sellers for middling kinds.
Of sheep the supply was 16,480, including 1,260 from
abroad. The mutton trade was firm, 'with good sale, and
prices rather higher.

The number of calves on sale was 106, of which 100
wore foreign.
The veal trade was brisk at advanced rates.
Fork sold at unaltered prices. The number of pigs on
sale was 360, of which 10 were from abroad.
Quotations, per stone of 81bs, sinking the offal :—Beef,
3s to 4s 10d; mutton, 3s 4d to 5s 2d; veal, 3s 4d to 6s;
pork, 3s to 4s.
