BRITIiR CO N TRAD&

The quantity of flour now being daily mourned is
admittedly short of the ritual winter go, awl
millers inicesasntly °words's' of the badness of their
trade. Acoordingly with the base of the wheat market
narrowed, there Is no roam for bueiness, and lately,
day by day, the difficulty of sales locreases. At
regards Boglish wheat, it has come forward In but
small quantities, and In poor condition, Inferior
samples being neglected at is. decline from late rates.
Of forego Import. there is • liberal supply and the
number of cargoes on sale off owed assure a eontinuous
stream for the immediate future. Americau aorta are
obtainable at is. farther decline, 57t. being ecooptod
where 58s, was paid • week ago. The bilis of lading
of most of the Ca!iforniao ciargoes on passage promise
their arrival throughout March and April, so that
spring receipts may be reckoned large. One of the
Californian vessels, lately arrieed in Franc*, brought
the eitraorilloary bulk of 18 000 qrs., and very many
of tsis ship. now on their way to the United Kingdom
bold 9,000 to 12.000 qrs. Therm facts, and ;be eon.
United open and favourable character of the season for
agrioultural prospects, are likely to bring farmers'
tupplW to market ; at the same time there Is no feat
of farmers' lapel's' this year being heavy. The French
Corn Trade Is at the present time in a rate of ens.
paraded activity with value still on the decline. Is
Germany duriug the past week the wheat market has
been quiet, without any quotable alteration in rates
current, although reerriondary and inferior descriptions
of wheat have been really about is. per qr. cheaper to
will. Barley advanoed in value dories the first fort-
night of the present month, but now It has become
stationary In price, with • slight but nevertheless
decided falling off In the demand. Oats and beans are
sciaroe throur,hout Germany. Is Russia, at Taganrog,
the 'beet trade is very strong, as there are no stooks,
eat the supplies from the interior some ia eameedingly
slow.
