MARKET NEWS.-(YESTERDAY.)
CORN EXCHANGE,
Dating the past week large arrivals of English Wheat
coastwise as well as by land-carriage, and samples were re'
ported for our market, while of Irish Oats upwards of 55,04
quarters came to hand. Of other kinds of grain the receipt]
were by no means extensive. From Essex and Lincolnshire
a fair average quantity of Wheat came to hand, hence the
,N
stands were rather heavily filled with parcels of both Kea
and White. Notwithstanding we had a large number 01,
buyers in attendance, the demand for all descriptions 0'
Wheat of home growth was extremely dull, at a,decline iU
the currencies paid on Monday last, of Is per quarter, and a
large quantity was left unsold at the close of businetto•
The accounts which have leached us this morning+
from various parts of the country, relative to the P.
pearance of the wheat plants, are very satisfactory.
The show of free Foreign Wheat was on the increase; hence
the trade for that article was much depressed, and previous
rates were with difficulty maintained. Bonded Grain alnlo4t
nominal in value. Of Barley, the supply was rather limited,
yet the demand for all except the best Malting parcels, which
were quite as dear, was in a very sluggish state, at last weeo
figui es. Superfine Malt supported previous rates. In other
kinds next to nothing was doing. The supply of Oats being
unusually large, that article was a mere drug, and quite le
per quarter lower than on Monday last. Beans and resto
ware in slow inquiry, at unaltered currencies. The Floor
trade was again dull. Most kinds of Seeds were in sluggish
request, at about stationary prices.

EMIXTTIFIET.D.
Compared with those of several previous weeks, the int"
ports of live stock for our markets, since Monday last, hsve
been somewhat limited, they not having exceeded 37 oxen
and 12 cows, all from Holland. The number on sale con-
sisted of only 15 oxen and cows, but the whole of them were
of full average quality ; indeed, we may observe, tbil
scarcely any of them were out of condition. The demand
for them ruled steady, at prices varying from 14110 s to 1'
lOs per head, at which figures the whole found buyers, The
supply of Beasts from our own grazing counties was less, 11
nearly 300, than that exhibited on this day se'nnight, and we
are happy to observe that that description of stock was less
afflicted with the so-long-complained-of epidemic than virre'
the case on that day. Still, several losses have again oc-
curred on the roads. On the whole, there was a slight lor
provement in the demand for the prirnest Scots and Howe:,
breds, which sold at from 3s 10d to 4s per 81bs ; but 3°
other kinds were extremely inactive, at barely late rates,
while a general clearance was not effected. The bullor
lt
droves from Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire'
were composed of 1,800 Scots and Homebreds. From the
northern grazing districts we received about 200 short-
horns ; from the western and midland counties, 400 Deve,ol
Runts, Herefords, &c. ; from other parts of England, 2,10 0'
various kinds ; and, from Scotland, 110 horned and polled' 84:00,
The numbers of Sheep were somewhat on the increase, Or'
titularly those out of the wool. Prime Old Downs mostly
sold at previous currencies ; but all other kinds had a cloW"
ward tendency. A large portion of the Bents and Leicestel
were in demand. From the Isle of Wight were received 13

COUNTY OF LINCOLN RAILWAY
MEETING.
The Committee of Management of the DIRECT NORTHERN
RAILWAY, beg to inform their Shareholders that at the County of
Lincoln Railway Meeting, held at Lincoln, on Friday, the 2++th inst.,
and at which about eight thousand persons were present, a resolution
in favour of the London and York Line was proposed and supported
by large Sharehoklei, in, th.it Company.
The following amendment was proposed by the Earl of Winch'isea,
and seconded by General Johnson, M.P.*—
" Resolved—That this meeting most cordially approves of the
system of railways affecting this county, which has been favourably
reported upon by the Board of Trade, comprehending the Cambridge
and Lincoln, and the continuation by the Direct Northern front Lin-
coln to York, together with their branches."
Both the mover and seconder declared that they had no interest in
either line, and advocated tha Catnbridge and Lincoln and Direct
Northern Lines solely oh public grounds, those lines being best suited-
to the wants of the county, and as having been recommended to Par-
liament by the impartial and unbiassed tribunal—the Board of Trade.
The amendment was supported by the Earl Fitzwilliam and
John Coupland, EN., one of the most extensive corn merchants of
Lincolnshire. . _

Upon a show of hands the Sinriff declared that he was unable to
decide whether the resolutlzm 'or the amendment was carried in the
affirmative, when a see,'.,nd show of hands being called for, and:with a
similar result, a di-asion to opposite sides of the Castle-yard took
place, when tie sheriff used the followinz; words :—" I find it ditficult
to decide Mit I think I ant bound to say, that the London and York
have ate majority."
fhe Committee of Management beg to state that they have ample
proof to show before the• Committee on • the Bill that a larg, number
