floating grain and seed trade :—During the last
ee'unight 56 grain and seed-laden vessels have arrived
at pork-of-call, via., 25 wheat, 5 =able, 6 barley, 3 rye, 2
beans, 2 milleteeed, 4 liaised, 2 sottorpeeed. 2 ground
nuts, and 1 release. The Boating grain trade has been
dull, partly owing to the rudder temperature and the
non-arrival of the overdue , South European grain fleet.
