A few parcels of Wheat and Flour from Ireland, with a very
scanty supply of other produce, thence as well as coastwise,
and a moderate quantity of Indian Corn from abroad, compose
the only arrivals worth naming into this port since Monday
last ; yet, small as our importations are at present, they appear
quite sufficient to answer the limited wants of our local con-
sumption, to which the demand is still principallv confined;
the millers and dealers in the interior continuing to buy from
the growers nearer home, on terms somewhat under the cur-
rent rates here. _ _ _

Throughout the whole course of our market this morning,
the trade, with one or two exceptions, was dull in the extreme:
accompanied by an almost general decline in prices. Wheat oi

all descriptionis was offered freely at a reduction of Id. to 2d.
per 70Ib. from Tuesday's quotations, at which the sales were
very unimportant, and confined to needy buyers alone.—Flour,
also. being taken off 'sparingly to-day, even the best marks of
Irish receded Is. per sack, and American was the turn cheaper.
Barley, of all kinds, and Malt, exciting less inquiry. feebly
supported late prices.—Beans and Pease, upon a limited de-
mand, were rather lower in value.—Oats, commanding little
notice, gave way id. per 451 b. ; and Oatmeal, in the absence of
country buyers, hardly sustained previous rates.

Corn was in fair request on the terms last noted, whilst all qua-
lities of white, and mixed parcels generally, were 15. per quar-
ter, and Corn Meal 6d. per barrel lower.
