A very thin attendance and dull market, at a deoline of
on wheat since this day week. Grinding barley a
slow sale at late rates. Oats ,folly la. lower. Beans
and peas unaltered in values. Flour exceedingly duU,
and prices irregular.

At the principal provincial corn markets on Saturday
last, the supplies wore in general moderate, and trade
was extremely languid. In some cases a reduction of
from Is. to 2s, had to be submitted to, while, in others,
holders would not submit to lower prices, and business
transaction. were chiefly confined to those who from
necessity were compelled to make purchases. There was
very little doing in other grain, which mostly main.
tamed late rates.

LIVERPOOL WOOL MARKET, JUNE 12.

Foreign wool meete with more int:miry, and business is
entered upon with more confidence, from the belief that
prices have passed the lowest point. For Scotch there
is not much doing ; stocks being light, no change in value.

WORCESTER HOP-MARKET, Jolts 127 n.
The market is dull, notwithstanding that the reports
from the plantations in this district and also in Kent
and Sorry are unfavourable. In the Worowiter district
the gro Ring hop has made very rapid progress; tying
has been finished some time, and the bine has in sonic
favourable situations climbed to the tops of the poles.
The weather has been just suitable to the growth of the
plant, being hot both by day and night; but it also ap-
pears to be favourable to the increase of the fly, which has
appeared in almost every plantation in very great force.
The promise of another year's growth, therefore, is at
present quite uncertain. At this time the blight does not
appear at all to effect the plant, though a few weeks
may tell quite another tale.
