With continued limited receipts at the ports on the seaboard of the United States, prices, of Wheat and Flour advance there in the face of depressed accounts from this side the Atlantic ; the French markets are still also slowly improving, and will probably import from England, or divert for their own use some of the produce originally intended for this country, on its arrival off our coasts. We had a copious and refreshing rain in this locality last night, but so far this does not appear to have been the case generally through the country, and the cold winds and absence of sunshine hitherto are reported to be bringing the crops but slowly forward, so that we cannot reason ably calculate on so desirable an event as an early harvest. With the usual caution so long exercised by the trade, however, no excitement is as yet appatent ; and though some markets of the kingdom are stated rather dearer, others have slightly given way at the close of the past week, and Mark-lane, yesterday, upon fair supplies from abroad, was dull, without alteration in the general quota tions. A change of wind, within two days, has brought us in a fair arrival of Wheat and Indian Corn, 6,397 barrels of American, and 11,281 sacks, chiefly Spanish Flour; these constitute our chief supplies for the week. The trade has ruled quiet, but steady, during the interval from Friday last. At our market this morning Wheat and Flour met a slow consuming demand from the trade, and the prices of Friday last were scarcely supported. The business doing in Indian Corn is restricted by buyers holding out for a decline on present rates. There ie little dying in oats and Oatmeal ; and for other articles there was a very dull sale. [BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.] THE WAR. Brahestadt and Tornea, on the north of the Gulf of Finland, have been cannonaded with success. _The Moniteur contains a despatch from A dmiral Hamelyn, dated May 23, giving a detailed account of the taking of the Russian fortifications in Circassia. Anapa had also been captured. On the 7th June the siege of Silistria continued with out any important result. An incursion of Montenegiins into the Herzegovina was repulsed by the Albanians. The Paris Moniteur says, the removal of Paskiewitch's head quarters to Jassy is confirmed, as also the report of the concentration in Moldavia of the Russian corps which were marching on the Danube. These measures appear to afford an answer to the Austrian movement on the Transylvanian frontier. BERLIN, MONDAY EVENING.--The results of the Teschen conference are favourable. Austria and Prussia will send an answer to the minor States, extinguishing the hopes of the Bamberg conference. Prussia is resolved to consider the note sent by Austria to Russia on the 2nd June as the summons mentioned in the late treaty, and will send Colonel Manteuffel to St. Petersburg to back it. A St. Petersburg letter says the cause of our exchange going so high is, we believe, the grain crops' contracts, as they were made for May, and as part of them are for foreign account, they have, of course, to be drawn against ; this, with the great want of money here at present, and the excessive dulness of our import market, coupled with the report of a contemplated loan in Holland, seem suffi cient to explain the advance.
