REVIEW OF THE CORN TRADE.

tiona of wheat, but little budness has taken place. and
quotations, without being actually lower, have undoubt-
ally ruled in favour of buyers, notably as regards new
samples, the condition if whieh has not been over wttal•
Any revival if activity need not be looked for till after
the holidays, and even then any immediate advance upon
current rates 14 altogether improbable.
The stock of wheat in Loielon at the present m ~,,, ent
Is Probably about AIM igal quarters, wail at the outports the
Supply is believed to lie correletti'lluglY huge.
Until the first of September the imports
.olforeign
wheat have exceeded those for the comispiniling paned
last year by about six-and-three quarter million cwts.,
they have in fact been at the rate id eighteen million
quarters per annum, but it cannot he expected this rate
will be maintained. An immediate Lining off in the
receipts is not, however, likely, as there is still about
1,713,0151 quarters on ',nowt°.
In spring corn very little has boon doing and quotations
have ruled in buyers favour.
