able advices from Madrid having stimulated business in

MARKET NE WS.-(THIS DA Y.)

CORN-EXCHANGE-FRIDAY.

Since Monday, scarcely any fresh arrivals of English
Wheat have taken place few our market. The stanch
were scantily tilled with samples of both Red and White,
while there setts rather more business doing in the article,
,et full prices. Foreign Wheat was held with more firm-
ness, but there was not much passing in it. The supply
ef Barley was only moderate, while the sale for it was
Inactive, at late rates. Malt moved off slowly, at pre-
vious quotation. There was rather more demand for
Oats, and the best feed were 61 per quarter higher
Beans, Peas, and Flour as last quoted.

Although the supply of Beasts on sale here was by n
means extensive, we have to report a very dull iniiittir)
or Beef, and Nlonday's quotations were with difficult)
supported. We had on sale 30 Oxen and Cows front
Rotterdam, and 100 Scots from Aberdeen. Prime old
Downs were scarce, and in demand, at full prices. In
other kinds of Sheep very little was doing. The Lamb
trade was extremely heavy, and the currencies had a
,lownward tendency. The number of Calves was good,
yet the Veal trade was active, at fully late rates. it
t'igs very little was doing. Dlilch Cows sold at from 16/
to 191. 10s. each.
