MARKET

HIS DAY.)

CORN-EXCHAN GE.-(FRIDAY.)
Our arrivals of Wheat continue good from the northern
counties ; however, the show of samples here was on the in-
crease. The finest qualities of both Red and White com-
manded a steady sale, at full prices; but all other kinds were
a slow inquiry. Foreign Wheat, free of duty, was in fair re-
quest, and previous rates were well supported ; but Corn
under lock was a mere drug. The supply of Barley was
quite equal to the demand, and it was only the finest quality
that could be disposed of. All other kinds were very dull.
The Malt trade was heavy, and where sales were pressed
lower rates were taken for all descriptions. Oats were ex-
tremely dull, and rather cheaper. Beans, Peas, and Flour
as on Monday.

For the time of year the supply of Beasts on sale wasrather
numerous, but of very middling quality ; yet the Beef trade
was in a depressed state, and Monday's quotations were with
difficulty supported. No foreign stock was offering, but we
had 100 Scots, by sea, from Scotland. The numbers of Sheep
were extremely small, owing to which the Mutton trade was
active, at full prices. Calves were in short supply and steady
demand, at previous figures. In Pigs', a steady business was
doing. Milch Cows sold slowly at from 141 to 191 each, in-
cluding their small Calf.

significant.

sold, at 51s to 52s 6d for low greyish yellow, at 4es to 62s for
washed, at 53s 6d for mid yellow, and at 51s 6d for soft
white, being lower rates ; 3 550 bags Madras were taken in,
washed brown at 47s to 50s per cwt, and damp at 48s to 51s.

in at 18s to 24s per cwt for sound.

the auctions comprise only 63 bales Mocha, which were
taken in at 40s to 40s 6d for triage ; and 1,119 bags Ceylon,
which sold at 65s 6d to 683 for fine ord pale coloury, at 53s
to 56s for good ord greyish, and at 61s to 75s for pea-berry ;

bags Costa Rica at 43s to 4-Is for fine ord.

9s 6d to lOs per cwt, the market having been brisker.

to 27s 6d for mid dingy white 3 per cent. refraction.
Comm.—Owing to the extensive sales at Liverpool there
has also been more business doing here at advanced rates ;
but the Londoa market for this staple is insignificant com-
pared to that at the outport, from which it entirely takes its
tone.
TEA.—There have been public sales of 8,970 packages of
China, and 1,223 of Assam. Of the former about 6,000 sold,
Pouchong and Hyson being ld cheaper, and Congou and
other qualities at about previous rates. The Assam sold
freely at full prices, ranging from 2s to 3s 10d for the better
sorts, though some of the inferior commenced at 51hd per lb.
This tea is getting into repute.
