MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DIY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.-{MONDAY.)
During last week the arrivals of English Wheat, Malt, and
Flbur were rather limited; those of Barley, Oats, Beans, and
Peas good. Of Irish Oats the receipts were on a very eaten -
sive scale, while the aggregate imports of foreign Grain were
large, especially of Wheat and Oats. Fresh up only a mode-
rate quantity of Wheat of home produce reached us, either
by land carriage or samples, hence the stands were, on the
whole, rather scantily filled with parcels of that description
of produce. The attendance of buyerfi being numerous, the
demand for English Wheat was somewhat active, at an ad-
vance in the quotations obtained on Monday last of from
Is to 2s per quarter, and at which a good clearance
was effected by the factors, who appear to expect even higher
currencies. The show of free foreign Wheat was by no means
large. This produced much firmness on the part of the im-
porters, and who refused to sell except at an improved value
of from is to 2s per quarter. In some few instances this
advance was paid for very fine qualities of Red and White,
yet it cannot be considered general. Notwithstanding it is
somewhat doubtful whether the duty on foreign Wheat will
recede below its present amount on Thursday next, the
speculators were firm, and would not sell, seeing
the improvement in English, except at higher rates.
Although we had a large supply of English Barley on offer,
the best malting, parcels commanded a ready sale, at an ad-
vance of is per quarter. In other kinds, only a moderate
amount of business was doing, at late rates. Foreign Barley
was heavy, but not cheaper. The best parcels of Malt were
in fair request, and laat'week's prices were well:supported.
In the value of the Middling and inferior qualities, we can
notice no alteration. The show of Oats, both English and
Irish, as well as fine foreign, was large; nevertheless, as
most of the dealers were short of stock, the Oat trade
ruled firm, and the quotations obtained on this day se'nnight
well well supported. The supply of Beans was good, owing to
which the sale for that article was dull, at barely late rates.
White Peas were in fair request; but grey and maple were a
dull sale. Linseed as well as cakes sold freely, at full prices ;
otherwise, the seed trade was dull.

Since Monday last the imports of live stock from abroad,
into London, have consisted of 23 Oxen, per the Caledonia,
from Hamburgh, and 180 Oxen and Cows, together with 700
Sheep and 40 Pigs per the Columbine and Ocean, from
Rotterdam. To-day we had on offer 130 Foreign Beasts,
and 400 Sheep, in, for the most part, middling condition.
The whole found buyers, at full prices. At Hull about
180 Beasts and Sheep have come to hand from Rotterdam,
but their quality is represented as by no means good.
From our own grazing districts the receipt of Beasts fresh up
were on the increase, and of considerably improved quality;
vet owing to the unusually large attendance of country
buyers the Beef trade was active, at an advance in the quota-
tions of 2d per 81bs, the primest Scots producing 4s 6d per
81bs, and at which a good clearance was effected. The Bul-
lock droves from the north comprised 1,600 short horns; from
the east 200 short horns; from the western and midland
counties 600 Herefords, runts, Devons, &c. ; from other
parts of England 400 of various kinds ; from
Scotland 60 Scots ; and from Ireland 110 Beasts.
The numbers of Sheep being rather more than equal to
meet the wants of the butchers, the Mutton trade was in a
sluggish Mate, and previous prices were with difficulty sup-
ported. Prime small Calves sold freely, at full prices.
Otherwise the Veal trade ruled dull. The Pork trade was
again steady; but no advance can be noticed in prices.

Notwithstanding the comparatively high prices at which
most descriptions of meat are now selling, the arrivals from
all quarters for our markets during the past week have been
on a ♦ary moderate scale, though they have proved of full
average quality. The supplies of London killed meat having
been small, the general demand has ruled active, and the
quotations have been somewhat on the advance. 'Very few
carcases of'foreign Beef or Mutton have appeared on sale.

Several arrivals of Potatoes have taken place from different
parts of England, as well as the Channel Islands, during
the week ; while, from abroad, several hundred tons have
been received. A portion of them being rotton, mise-
rably low prices have been paid for 'such by the cow-keepers
