MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN-EXCHANGE-MONDAY.
Business in Wheat fresh up, owing to' the factors demand-
ing from Is to 2s per quarter more money than last week,
progressed slowly; eventually, however, the demand became
steady, but not the slightest improvement was noticed on
last week's rates. The show of fine foreign Wheat was mo-
derately good. Fine Dantzic qualities moved off steadily;
other kinds slowly, at last week's currencies. Bonded Grain
almost nominal in value. Fine malting parcels of Barley
sold at full currencies; in other kinds very little was doing.
Malt at unaltered currencies. Full prices were obtained for
Oats. Beans and Peas at an advance of from is to 2s per
quarter. Fur Flour prices remained about stationary.

SMITHFIELD.
The Beef trade was unusually dull ; indeed, we scarcely
ever recollect a worse market for Beef. Notwithstanding the
salesmen gave way m prices from 2d to 4d per 81bs, scarcely
any progress was made in sales, and the very highest figure
obtained for the best Scots did not exceed 3s 8d per Blbs..
The numbers of Sheep were again extensive, yet the primest
old Downs sold at prices fully equal to those obtained on this
day se'nnight. The middling and inferior kinds, however,
were a shade lower. For Lambs last week's prices were sup-
ported. Calves at previous currencies. For Pork no altera-
tion to notice.

The general demand has ruled heavy, and prices, in most
instances have had a downward tendency. In addition to
the arrivals noticed in our tabular statement, nearly 700
carcasses of Lamb have come to hand from various parts of
England, in good condition.

WOOL IVULIZZET.
Since this day se'nnight the imports of foreign and colonial
Wool have not exceeded 1,200 packages. Privately, the de-
mand is in a sluggish state, yet the factors remain firm at
late fates.

TALLOW.
This market is steady, and prices, both on the spot and
for forward delivery, the same. There is very little specu-
lative business doing. Town Tallow is abundant, at 39s to
39s 6d per cwt. net cash.
BOROUGH AND sprrax.rxELns.
The arrivals of Potatoes at the water side, since our last
import, have not exceeded 900 tons ; yet, as large supplies
are in warehouses, the demand is very heavy, and prices are
with difficulty supported.
BOROUGH BOP MARKET.
The accounts which have reachedus from Kent and Sussex
state that an increase of fly is apparent amongst the growing
Hop bines ; yet they appear to have had but little influence
very the demand here, which, however, is certainly firm, at
very full prices. As yet no betting has taken place upon the
duty.
