MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.

CORN-EXCHANGE-(MONDAY.)
The arrivals of English Wheat up to our market dar-
ing the past week have been moderately good ; while
those of Barley and Oats, collectively, were very exten-
sive. Fresh up, the receipts of Wheat of home produce,
coastwise, as well as by land carriage and sample, were
by no means large, yet the stands were well filled.
Owing, however, to the Queen's visit to the City, for the
purpose of opening the new Royal Exchange, the attend-
ance of both factors and dealers was small, and so little
business was transacted in consequence that last week's
prices were nominally unaltered. The same cause which
influenced the trade with English Wheat operated upon
that with Foreign, the rates of which were stationary.
There was a large quantity of Barley on sale. The few
transactions reported were at full currencies, although
much caution was manifested by the dealers, arising from
the present extreme value of the article. Malt, the
supply of which was by no means large, moved off slowly,
at late rates. The quantity of Oats offering was large,
but we have to report very few sales in that description
of grain, at previous figures. Beans, Peas, and Flour,
were a mere drug, at late rates.

—ln our market the supply of Beasts was, even for the
time of year, considered 'very extensive, the numbers
bespoke for last evening exceeding 4,000 head ; but a
great deficiency was apparent in its quality. Notwith-
standing the attendance of buyers was rather numerous,
the Beef trade was extremely heavy. However, the
primest Scots, &c., sold at prices about equal to those
obtained on this day se'nnight ; but those of the mid-
dling and inferior breeds suffered a decline of quit: 2d
per 81b, and a clearance was not effected. From oar
northern grazing districts we received about 2,200 short
horns, while the droves from Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex,
and Cambridgeshire, consisted of 400 Scots and home-
breads ; those from the western and midland counties
comprised 400 Herefords, runts, Devons, &c. ; those from
other parts of England 500 of various breeds ; while
from Scotland 200 Scots came to hand, by steamers.
During the week the imports of foreign Stock under the
new tariff have been large, they having amounted to
180 Beasts, and 160 Sheep, thereby making the following
totals for the present year:—

There were on sale to-day 40 Beasts and 50 Sheep from
Rotterdam in fair condition. The supply of Beef was
but moderate, yet the Mutton trade was in a very sluggish
state, at barely last week's prices. In Calves, the num-
bers of which were rather limited, next to nothing was
doing. The same observation may be applied to Pigs.
