MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN-EXCHANGE-MONDAY.
Fresh up to- day we received a fair quantity of Wheat from
Kent and Essex, but that from other parts was rather limited.
The stands being rather heavily filled with last week's un-
sold samples, and the millers not feeling disposed to purchase
except on easier terms ; the demand for all kinds of 'Wheat
of home produce was excessively heavy, at a decline in the
currencies noted on Monday last of from is to, in some in-
stances, 35 per quarter, and at which amount of depression no
progress could be made in effecting sales. There was only a
moderate quantity of free foreign Wheat on sale, yet the trade
with that article was as dull as almost ever remembered,
and the rates gave way from is to fully 2s per quarter.
Comparatively speaking, only a limited quantity has paid duty.
In bonded Grain so little was doing that the quotation re-
mained nominally the same. Of samples of Foreign Barley,
a good number was on sale ; while the Barley trade was ex-
cessively dull, and where sales were pressed, is per quarter
more money would have been accepted. No English Barley
at market. The supply of Malt embraced only about 3,800
quarters, yet that grain was a mere drug, and might have
been purchased at a great reduction in value. The quantity
of Oats was large, and we have to notice a decline of 6d per
quarter in their value. Beans, Peas, and Flour declined
from Is to 2s per quarter, with next to nothing doing in them.
So little was doing is Seeds, that the rates were almost no-
minal.

SMITHFIELD.
From our northern grazing districts, a fall average time. of
year supply of beasts came fresh to hand, in, for the most
part, excellent condition ; while the droves from other quar-
ters were tolerably extensive ; hence our market was well
supplied with that description of stock. Notwithstanding
the prevailing warm weather, we have to report a steady,
but by no means brisk, demand for Beef, at, in every in-
stance, prices fully equal to those obtained on Monday last
—the best Scots realising 4s per 81bs—and at the conclusion
of business a good clearance was effected by the salesmen.
The number of Sheep were again on the increase. However,
the primest Downs and Half-breds commanded a fair inquiry,
at very full currencies, while all other kinds were quite as
dear, and nearly the whole of them were disposed of. Al-
though the supply of Lambs was large, the inquiry for them
was steady, and full rates were realised without difficulty.
Prime small Calves sold freely, other kinds of Veal slowly,
at late rates. Upwards of 200 Pigs were received from .-
land, while the Pork trade was in a sluggish state, at barely
stationary prices.
