CORN-EXCHANGE.

Notwithstanding the returnslihowi;trCer an extensive ar-
rival of English Wheat for the last week, the stands were
by no means heavily supplied with samples, owing, in some
measure, to the receipts just up being on a very mode-
rate scale. A large portion of the Wheat being some-
what out of condition, from the effects of the prevailing
damp weather, and the attendance of buyers—most of
whom were short of stock-goods—the demand for- the
finest qualities was firm, at prices fully equal to those
obtained on this day se'nnight ; indeed, in some few in-
stances, a trifling advance was paid for such descriptions,
In the middling and inferior kinds of both red and white
a steady business was doing, at fully previous rates.
The show of samples of free Foreign Wheat was not
large, while we have to report a very steady inquiry for
that descripqoa of grain, and full currencies were ob-

SMITHFIELD.

Our market was on the whole but moderately supplied
with Beasts the time of year considered, but their qua-
lity was very superior to that which we have noticed in
many previous corresponding markets at this season.
Notwithstanding the unfavourable state of the weather
we had a large number of buyers in attendance, owing
to which the Beef trade was active, at an advance on the
currencies obtained on this day se'nnight, of from 2d to 4d
per 81bs, and at that improved value a clearance was
easily effected. Although a few very superior Scots
found purchasers at 4s 4d, we consider the highest gene-
ral figure for Beef not to have exceeded 4s 2d per glbs.
The northern drores were composed of about
1.600 short lion., Tito,e froth the western and mid-
land disiriet 450 fleref4irds, I)evons, Herts,
Sets, &c. Front other parts of England, we received
350 of various breeds ; from [reland, 30 beasts, and from
Scotland, 90 horned and polled Scots. As to sheep, they
came rather freely to hand, and, for the most part, in
excellent condition. The butchers, however, were cau-
tious in their purchases ; hence the mutton trade must
be considered dull, though last week's quotations were
well supported—prime old Downs realizing quite 4s 8d
per 81bs. The numbers of calves were about equal to
meet the wants of the dealers, and nearly, or quite, the
whole of them were di posed of at Friday's advanced
rates. The Pork trade was rather active, and the rates
were quite as high as those on this day se'nnight.
During the past week, no importations of live stock have
taken place for our market, and we had none on sale here
to-day.

Notwithstanding a very great falling off has taken
place in the receipts of country-killed meat up to these
markets during the past week, the supplies from most
quarters have been seasonably large, and, comparatively
speaking, of fair average quality. Although the supply
of London-killed meat has been good, the trade with
most descriptions—but especially with the best Beef,
Mutton, and Pork—has ruled steady, and prices have
been firmly supported.
