CORN EXCHANGE.

COURT OF BAMKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburo.)
IN RE JOHN VICKERS.

Most of the country markets held on Saturday were mo-
derately supplied with wheat, in which about an average
business was doing at barely stationary prices. Barley
was in steady request, at full quotations. Oats, beans, and
peas were very firm, bnt flour met a dull inquiry.
Most of the Continental markets come rather heavy for
wheat. In prices, however, very little change has taken
place. Spring corn has sold at full quotations. Dull ac-
counts continuo to reach us from the United States. Very
limited supplies of English produce reached us last week.
The imports from abroad were 10,075 quarters of wheat,
8,512 barley, 27,781 oats, 1,870 linseed, 1,473 rapeseed,
245 sundry seeds, 1,931 eaAs, and 2,250 barrels of flour.
Fresh up to-day, from Essex, Kent, &c., the arrivals of
English wheat, coastwise and by land carriage, were on a
very limited scale ; hence, and more especially as a good
clearance of the stands was effected on Friday, the show
of samples of both rod and white was small. The trade,
however—owing to the favourable accounts at hand in re-
ference to the crops- •was in a most inactive state, and, in
some instances, prices ruled ls. per quarter lower than on
Monday last.
We were fairly supplied with nearly all foreign wheats,
fresh as well as ex-granary. The firmness of holders
checked the demand, which ruled exceedingly heavy, and
so little business was passing that prices were nominally
the same as on Monday last.
Floating cargoes of grain were dull, but not cheaper.
The show of barley was very limited, and the trade
ruled firm at very full prices.
Malt moved off slowly, yet the quotations were sup-
ported.
There was a good supply of oats on offer, yet the oat
trade ruled firm, at very full prices.
Beaus were in short supply and good request, at is per
quarter more money.
For peas we had a good sale, at an advance of is. per
quarter.
The flour trade was very dull, and country marks were
offering on rather lower terms.

This bankrupt bad carried on business in Eldon-road,
Kensington ; Cross-lane, St: Mary-at Hill ; and High-
street, Southwark, as a wine and spirit merchant, and
now came up to pass his last examination.
The debts are Pet down at 1,125/. ; assets—good
debts, 7601.; the profits were set down at 21 33. bd. ;
expenses nearly 2,0001., of which nearly 8001. were
estimated.

Mr. Bickley, for the assignees, was not satisfied with
the accounts, which differed from those filed by bank.
rupt in the Insolvent Court.

Mr. Hart, for the official assignee, said they differed
in form, but he could trace the items. He did not think
that any benefit would arise fro:n an adjournment.
The bankrupt then passed, all questions as to conduct
to be reserved for the certificate meeting.
