MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.

CORN EXCHANGE -FRIDAY.
Since Monday several fresh arrivals of English Wheat
have taken place up to our markets, and the stands exhi-
bited a full average number of saMples. Even the finest qua-
lities met a very dull.sale, and prices had a downward ten-
dency. There were no buyers of Foreign Wheat, except on
lower terms. The supply of Barley was not large; yet the
sale for it was heavy,'at barely stationary prices. Malt sold
at a decline of is per quarter. The demand for Oats, Beans,
Peas, and Flour was extremely- inactive.

Our market was somewhat extensively supplied with
beasts, nearly 300 of which came fresh to hand by steamers
from Scotland, owing to which, and the thin attendance of
buyers, the Beef trade was in a very depressed state, at
barelyllionday'sp tires. Prime old Downs readily produced pre-
vious rates; but in those of other breeds of Sheep exceedingly
little was doing: and their currencies had a downward ten-
dency. The Lamb trade was, on the whole, steady, without 1
alteration in prices, wish about an averagi time-of-year
supply on offer. Calves moved off slowly at barely late
rates. Pigs were unaltered in value. Mulch cows sold at from
161. to 19/. each.
