MAItKET NEWS--(THIS DAY

CORN EXCHANGE-(FRIDAY.)
Since Monday no fresh arrivals of English Wheat have
taken place for our market, coastwise or by land carriage.
To-day the demand for that article was steady, and the late
advance in the quotations was fully supported. Free foreign
Wheat was held on previous terms ; yet very little business
doing in it, as our millers were disposed to wait the result of
next Monday's supply. We regret to announce the failure
of an old-established firm here. The liabilities are about,
33,0001. The best malting Barley was quite as dear, but
other kinds were neglected. There were inquiries for super-
fine Malt, at lull prices. In other descriptions next to nothing
was doing. Another large arrival of Oats has come to hand
from Ireland ; yet the prices of that article were supported.
Beans, Peas, and Flour without alteration.

This being a holiday market, the supply of beasts on sale
was very limited, yet the Beef trade was in a sluggish state,
at about Monday's prices. We had 60 Beasts and 260 Sheep
from Holland. Sheep, the numbers of which were small.
moved off slowly, at unaltered quotations. In Calves, next
to nothing was doing, yet the currencies of Veal may be con.
sidered about stationary. Pigs were a slow inquiry, but not
cheaper. Milch Cows were held at from 161. to 191. each
including their small calf.
