CORN-EXCHANGE..--(Tms DAY.)
There wore moderate arrival* of all descriptions' of Grain last
week, and another large quantity of Flour. This morning there
is a good fresh arrival of Wheat, Barley, Beans, and Pease, from
Essex, Kent, and Suffolk, and many additional vessels, laden
with Foreign Oats. The damp weather occasions the 'Wheat
samples to come so rough,
,that they are neglected by our millers,
and, except for the superfine parcels, the trade may he reperted
Is. per quarter cheaper. Barley is so plentiful as to be rendered
nearly unsaleable, it being only the best malting parcels that meet
our maltsters attention. Beans and Pease, of both kinds, are dull,
and Is. to 2s. per quarter cheaper. There are abundance of Oats
for sale, and the buyers hesitate to purchase, this article, theret'ote
may be quoted is. per quarter cheaper than this day se'nnight.
The Flour trade is very dull, but prices remain unaltered.' Prom
the state of the Corn trade, it is evident that the war has had no
effect on it.
