aspect, and a tolerably fair extent of business

transacted in most descriptions of English, Irish,
and free Foreign, at a slight improvement upon
the terms of Friday ; thereby establishing an ad-
vance of 2d. to 3d. per 701bs. over the rates of this
day week. Of farmers' new Wheat the supply was libe-
ral, and the quality and condition being good, such gene-
rally realised a similar amendment. English and Irish
Flour, commanding rather a free sale, must be noted Is.
per sack dearer; and Foreign was nominally somewhat
higher in value.
In Barley, Beans, and Malt we have no change to re-
port; whilst good boiling Peace, upon an increased de-
mand, were held at an advance of 2s to 3s per quarter.
Oats moved off slowly at the improved rates of Friday ;
and Oat neat, being less saleable, receded to the currency
of this day se'nnight.

CORN EXCHANGE

FRIDAY

The duty has again advanced on Foreign Wheat to 18s. per
quarter, before which the imports at hand were monthly
cleared; on Oats it is raised to 7s. Rye to los. 6d. per quarter,

Flour to les 'Od per banal ; that on Colonial Wheat and Flour
to fs per quarter, and as per barrel, being the highe t rates
chargeable under the existing law, which expires on the 10th
proximo.
Exclusive of 1635 qrs. of Wheat and 280 qrs. Peas from the
Baltic, with 1100 qrs of oats from Archangel, we have no arri.
vats to note from abroad ; and beyond a moderate quantity of
Wheat and Oatmeal from Ireland, the supplies thence and coast-
wise have been extremely small since Tuesday ; from which
period the trade here, on the whole, has ruled steady, though
with less animatio►. than was previously obsery kble.
Our market this morning, although tolerably well attended
by local dealers, but fewer country buyers than of late, appeared
in general to exhibit much less activity than we have recently

had occasion to notice, which may be mainly accounted for, by
the increasing supplies of new grain direct from the growers,
rendering the millers somewhat less dependent on Foreign
Wheats than heretofore; the demand for these descriptions
was therefore upon a limitei scale to-day, but without produ-
cing any perceptible variation from our last quotations. Irish
and English new Wneats, however, were in moderate request,
and fully supported their previous value. Flour, being scarce,
English and Irish were taken freely by consumers, at an ad-
vance of Is. per sack, and States as well as Canadian, of which
there is very little to offer, may be considered relatively dearer.
In Barley, ilalt. Beans, and Pease there was no business ap-
parent to alter the currency stated in our list report.

Oats. though still in short supply, were in liMited demand at
late prices; of Oatmeal, however, several tolerably large parcels
were disposed of to Yorkshire buyers, on terms nearly equal to
those previously noted.
