However, as-the Essex• qualities were in by no means active I

the English Wheat trade steady, at last Monday's currencies.
The quantity of Foreign Wheat on show was small; neverthe-
less. the transactions in that article were only to a moderate
extent, at unaltered currencies. We had a large show of English
and Foreign Barley, which met a very dull inquiry, at a reduc-
tion in value of from Is. to 2s. per quarter. Superfine White
Malt moved off •slowly, at late rates; but all tither kinds might
have been purchased at a reduction of quite Is. per quarter.
The total supply of Oats being more than adequate to meet the
wants of the dealers, the trade-vas dull, and prices were 6d. to

last week. In Hour, either sark or,barrelled, very few sales were
concluded. In prices we have no alteration to notice. Several
'Cargoes of Indian Corn were sold at very full rates.
