,XCHANGE, MAY 4.

Although, from the continuance of the Danish blockade and
the uncertainty of its removal, the corn trade, in the northern
ports of Europe, is still in abeyance, holders of grain there,
waiting the result, seem disinclined to concede any material
remission in prices, and consequently remain inactive.
Nothing of a lively or interesting character is reported to
have occurred in the English or Irish markets so far this week ;
the spirit of the buyers, however, appears in general to be a
little subdued, and excepting Wheat, which in many instances
is quoted Is. to 2s. per qr. cheaper, the vibrations in other de-
partments of the corn trade appear to be inconsiderable, whilst
to the trade here, intermediately from the close of business on
Tuesday, similar remarks are applicable.
The supplies into this port coastwise and from Ireland, have
become perfectly. insignificant ; and while those from the Ame-
rican States furnish, since Monday last, a very limited quantity
alone of Flour and Indian Corn, we have no arrival of grain
whatever from the Continent of Europe, and 3400 qrs. Wheat
from Valparaiso.
Upon a slender attendance of country millers at our corn ex-
change to-day, the weather being highly favourable for the
growing crops, and our home buyers in nowise active, the sales
of Wheat proceeded slowly; but the limited arrivals of this
grain latterly counteracting any disposition on the part of
holders to recede, the current rates of Tuesday, though paid
with reluctance, remained unvaried.—American Fleur conti-
nued to meet inquiry, and at a reduction of 3d. to 6d. consi-
derable business might have been done, but importers holding
good Western brands firmly at 235. per barrel, and othei kinds
at proportionate rates, the transactions on the whole were only
moderate in amount. _ _ . . .

Barley, Malt, Beans, and Pease, seeming to attract little;at-
tention, merely sustained previous quotations.—Oats and Oat-
meal, likewise, moving sparingly, barely supported former
prices.
We have again to report a good demand for Indian Corn,
which continuing to be taken freely for Ireland, an advance of
Gd. per qr. was realised this morning upon the annexed quota-
tions, and Corn Meal remained steady in value.
