CORN EXCHANGE, MARCH 1

Beyond a fair supply of Oatmeal from Ireland, the arrivals
thence and coastwise are small, and of foreign Wheat we have
had very little in since Monday last ; of Flour and Indian Corn,
however, the imports from America and continental Europe
are liberal, including several canoes of Beans from Egypt.
Still divested of any improved indications, the British and Irish
markets, so far this week, are in general reported as less active,
and prices in a majority of cases either merely stationary or
rather depressed ; thus proving the exercise of free importa-
tions of corn to be at present as unremunerative to the trade
as the production is unprofitable to our home growers ; beset,
therefore, with conflicting opinions regarding the future, the
result is a question which time atonecan clearly unfold ; mean-
while the weather continues exceedingly fine, and the soil in
admirable order for the reception of the seed. Under these
circumstances, we have to note, during the interval since
Tuesday, excessive stupor in every branch of the trade, and
throuzhout our market this morning a complete suspension of
all active proceedings in any article. Exclusive of a few choice
samples of Wheat, held at late prices, all descriptions of Eng-
lish, Irish, and foreign, were offered with very little effect at a
decline of id. to 2d. per 70 lbs. States and Canadian Flour,
being also taken sparingly, receded 6d. per barrel, and Irish as
well as French hardly maintained previous quotations. Barley
might have been purchased.ls. per quarter under Tuesday's
rates had buyers appeared ; Malt, Beans, and Pease, remaining
nominally unvaried. Oats and Oatmeal were nearly without
inquiry, but from their previous low value holders appeared to
resist any further concession to-day. American White Indian
Corn declined 6d. to Is., and new Yellow 6d. per quarter, at
which abatement, and in Galatz at late prices, the transactions
were moderate.
