THE MA Li N ETS.—(YESTERDAY.)
con N EXCHANGE.
F:ligit.h Grain. were 1-,::,,i,.,1,1‘
..:ood, and con,idetabie t•ii Foreign Wheat and Oats; and
,here was another good fresh supply of English Wheat.
The fair weather, together with the large stcck of Wheat on
hand, rendered the Wheat trade excessively dull at 4s. to bs.
per quarter reduction from last week's terms, and Foreign 23.
to 3s. per quarter lower, with a limited demand. Barley,
Beans, and Pease meet a very slow sale at former prices. Oats
very dull, and hardly supported their former cumncy. Flour
is expected lower, but the top price has not settled.

SMITH FIELD.
Although the number of beasts was small yet trade was not
very brisk, and but little alteration in prices from our last qua..
tat ions. Prime Down Sheep were in demand, and sold readily',
at full rates, but other sorts and Lamb trade were exceedingly'
heavy, and prices were lower. Calves being few the trade was,
brisk. The Pork trace was slow without any alteration-

TEA MARKET.
The prices were firmly sustained. Some low Congou sold.
at Is. 9d., and good at 2s. per lb. Company's Congou ls.
per lb., cash, but there is now so little remaining, that it is•
difficult to make a purchase.

'TALLOW MARKET.
The demand on the spot was very limited, but purchases could.
not be made under 4ds. Fine YeliowCandle, and 48s. 6d. for
delivery in the last three months of the year.
PROVISION .MARKET.
The demand for Irish Butter was dull, and prices gave way.
Fine qualities 86s. to 89s. per cwt. Foreign Butter slow sale,
and the best Friezeland was at 965. to 98s. per cwt. Bacon
went off more freely, but at very low prices for the inferior
sorts, viz., 425. to 48s. ; the best qualities realised 50s. to 52a.
per cwt. landed.

HOP MARKET.
The accounts from the plantations were unfavourable, buts
continuance of the present weather, it is thought, will restore,
the plant, and the duty is backed at 140,00 W. The demand for
the article is confined to the choice kinds, which bring full
prices; inferior sorts neglected.

about his father's agricultural pursuits, and to enlighten him,:
