CORN EXCHANGE, MARCH 8.

The duty on foreign Rye has declined this week to gs 6d, and
on Beans to Ins 6d per qr., with a reduction on each of those
articles from British Colonies to Is and 2s 6d per qr. respectively.
The supplies into this port since Monday last are to a mode-
rately fair extent of Oatmeal and Floor, being nearly all we have
in during that time from Ireland. Of Wheat the arrivals con-
sist of several cargoes from Berwick and Newcastle; beyond
which, with s, me parcels of Oats from the West Coast of Scot-
land, and 500 qrs. of Beans from Egypt, we have little fresh in to
notice. _ _ _

In the interval from Tuesday last we have experienced a very
quiet limited trade generally, but no material change in prices.
Except a few Yorkshire dealers, directing their inquiries to
Oats and Oatmeal, we had very little appearance of country
buyers at our Corn Exchange to-day ; our home millers at the
same time remaining extremely inactive, all sorts of English,
Irish, and Foreign free Wheat continued to meet an exceedingly
dull lingering sale, and in any instance our last quotations were
scarcely maintained. Flour in general was equally difficult to
sell, and the turn cheaper.
Barley, the maltsters and dealers still refusing to purchase,
seemed to be wholly neglected, thereby rendering prices nominal
at present; and Malt was in siow request on the terms previ-
ously noted. Beans and Pease also were in 'united demand, but
not lower in value. _ _ _

Oats, independent of a few thousand bushels taken by country
buyers, moved off sparingly at the rates of Tuesday last; and
Oatmeal, without any speculative inquiry, was very little noticed
by consumers, although freely offered at a further decline of 3d
per 2401 b.

- For cargoes of bonded and floating wheat there are still some
inquiries, but the terms required continuing to be resisted by
those disposed to purchase, no sales have transpired during the
week.
