CORN EXCHANGE, MAY 7.
We have scarcely any thin-. in from Ireland or coastwise

(luring tne past tnree pay, and the only arrival of Wheat is
comprised in 1538 quarters from the United States, while the

II tall euppiy or Inman corn, Corn Meal, and Flour, though to
a fair extent, falls very considerably short of what we have
lately been accustomed to receive.
The steady improving tone of the country markets, and the
additional advance in London on Wednesday, have further
stimulated the trade here, in the interval since our last market,
and upon a fair amount of business the tendency to higher
prices has been manifested; at the same time, cash buyers
have found a decided advantage in their purchases, and many
bargains of this nature have been closed.

This morning's market was well attended, 'chiefly by parties
from the interior, and with an animated demand for all articles,
principally for our own locality, in addition to.a moderate sale
to Irish buyers, we quote a pretty general advance upon the
current rates of Tuesday, viz.:—On Wheat, 4d to 6d per 70Ib. ;
Sack Flour, 3s to 4s • Barrels, Is 6d ; Barley, W to Id per 601 b. ;
Beans, Is ; Indian dorn, 2s per quarter; Indian Meal, 6d to Is
per barrel ; Oatmeal, 2s per load.
Several parcels of Indian Corn were taken at the advance, to

hold over

which were the only speculative transactions ap.

Sugar.—The demand is extremely limited, and owing to the
continued pressure in the money market, buyers only purchase
