MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.-WEDNESDAY
We had a very limited supply of English Wheat on offer
to-day, while demand for all descriptions was firm, at fully
Monday's enhanced rates. The show of Foreign Wheat
was somewhat on the increase. Most kinds were in steady
request, at is per quarter more money. The sale for Barley
was steady, but Malt experienced a very sluggish demand.
Oats, Beans, Peas, and Flour were quite as dear.

There is comparatively little business doing in the City
to-day, so many of the speculators, stock brokers, and others
being absent, hundreds having left for the " Derby" event
at Epsom.
There are some accounts from Ceylon to-day, but the la-
formation supplied is not of any general importance. There
had been a considerable increase in the importations of Bri-
tish manufactured goods at Ceylon. In the exports, however,
a marked reduction has occurred. A new plan, it is said, has
been discovered for the management of the coffee plantations,
for which a patent has been taken out.
The British Funds hare been firm ; Consols at 99% for
Account, and at 99% for Money. Exchequer-bills are at
645. to 625. premium, and Bank Stock at 210.
Very few bargains were made in the Foreign Funds to-
day. Spanish Consols have ruled at 291/2, Portuguese Con-
verted, at 663/4, Belgian at 87, the Dutch Four-and-a-Half
per Cents. at 98% 14, and Mexican at 3714.
The Share Market has been pretty active, but in general
the prices have not varied much.
