MARKET NEWS.--(sArrnimAY)

.
The past week's arrivals of most descriptions of Grain haat
been on a very moderate scale ; but, generally speaking, Or
full average quality. Fresh up to-day, the receipts of Wheat
of home produce, were trifling; hence the supply of that ar-
ticle offering was small. Selected parcels of both red od
white commanded a steady demand, at prices fully equal to
those paid on this day se'nnight. In all other kinds, only
moderate business was doing, at late rates, and a clearance 0
such was not effected. From all quarters our accounts relie
tire to the appearance of the young wheat plants are verY
satisfactory. No foreign Wheat has come to hand since our last,
while little of that article was brought forward to-day. Holder!
of nearly every description were very fine, and obtained fuli
currencies without difficulty. In Corn under lock scarcely
any sales took place, and prices may be considered little
better than nominal. Notwithstanding the supply of arlel
was not to say large. that grain met a very dull B
sale'
Selected parcels of malting sold at full rates ; but the
value of all other kinds had a downward tendency. The
Malt trade was excessively dull, and last week's Prices wer'
with difficulty supported. In Oats comparatively little Was
doing, yet prices were maintained. Beans, Peas, and Flour,
as last quoted. The Seed trade was again dull ; and Clover
Seed was a trifle lower.

SNXITIMIELD.
The imports of live stock from abroad during the pot
week have been somewhat on the increase, they having con-
sited of 51 Oxen and 25 Cows, or a total of 76 head, all from
,'
Holland, and in. fair average condition. To-day there we
on offer 27 Beasts, the whole of which were quite equal to
those we have witnessed for some time past, while they found
buyers at prices varying from 151 to 181 lOs each. The navi-
ration being now open at Rotterdam, several large importa
tions of Beasts are expected thence in the present,
week. The arrivals of Beasst fresh up were somewke.'
extensive for the time of year, while a sligh'
improvement was noticed in their general quality+,
especially as respects the Scots from Scotland. The Bee'
trade was in a very sluggish state, at prices barely equal te
those obtained on Monday last; the primest Scots producing
3s 10d per Sibs. At the close of the market a clearance Was,
not effected. The droves from Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and
Cambridgeshire consisted of 2.000 Scots and homebreds,
from the northern grazing districts we received only 150 short
horns; from the western and midland districts 400-Hereforde,
Runs, Devons, &e. ' • from of her parts of England 300 of va-
rious breeds ; and from Scotland 120 horned and polled Scott
The numbers of Sheep were not to say extensive, thong°
quite equal to the demand ; on the whole the Mutton mid!
was firm, and the primest old D. found ready buyers, d`
4s 6d per 811 is. From the Isle of %%right 140 Lambs were
received, while the supplies from Essex, Hampshir, &c.. Wert
good. The Lamb trade was somewhat active, at fully ls,
week's quotations, the best qualities being lied at b 3 Fe;
Sibs. Calves, the supply of which was small, met a hoc)
nquiry, at late rates. In Pigs we have very few sales t°
report.
