quotations have not varied. Another cargo of Egyptian
beans is said to hare been taken for shipment to Konigs-

likely to yield a good profit.

mach the same terms as before.
The demand for Indian corn has again revived; for a

2h. 64. per qr., cast, freight, and insurance.

FOREIGN.
The news from the continent is important, it being offi-
cially announced that the States of the Zollverein had come
to the determination to suspend the import duties on corn
until the 31st August neat. This measure shows that the
wants of that part of Germany must be great, and renders
large shipments from the Baltic ports to Great Britain, to
say the least, improbable.
Danzig advices of the 2nd March state that holders of
wheat had remained exgeedingly firm ; most of the new
which had come to hand had been of light weight, asp 68
to 591 be. per bushel, old high mixed qualities of 61 to
6211b5. had been held at 475. to 4111., fur mixed weighing
621 b,. at 465., and mixed &tads. to 41s. ed. per qe. five on'
board. The new wheat had found purchasers at prices
rouging from 42.. to 465., according toquality. The weather
had become cold, but notby any means severe.
Letters from Konigsberg of the 26th ult. state that groat
scarcity existed in that neighbourhood, and that purchases
of grain to some extent had been made there by buyers from
the interior at very high prices. Shipments to England
were looked upon as altogether out of the question ; indeed
it would pay to send supplies from hence to that place, if a
continuance of the high rates then cornet there could be
insured.

From Stettin we learn that the deliveries of grain from
the growers had rather fallen short of expectation, which
had revived the confidence of holders, and though the
stocks of wheat and rye on the spot were large, full terms
had been insisted on. Wheat wan, on the lst inst., quoted
from 425. to 465., barley 265. to 27a., and rya 38s. to 395.,
per qr. free on board.
The accounts front Rostock of the let March are also of a
very firm inn,; the supplies from the farmers had not, it
appears, been equal to what is usually brought forward at
the corresponding period of the year, which circumstance,
and the continued demand on Hamburg account, had
caused prices to tend upwards.
At Hamburg, on Tuesday, increased activity was caused
by the knowledge that the free imisortation of grain was to
be allowed into the States of the Zollverein. A good deal
of business was consequently done in wheat and rye, at very
full prices. Several purchases of wheat, to be shipped from
Lower Baltic port in Spring, were made at prices equal to
42a. 6d. to 43e. 6d. per qr. free on board for 6I lbs. quality,
and for 60 lbs. kiln-dried Danish wheat 40s. per qr. tree on
board was paid. Barley also met with attention, and for
63 to 64 lbs. Danish 26.. was bid, whilst holders generally
demanded 2.5 e. 6d. Oats of 38 lbs. weight from Jutland had
been offered at 18s., and from Inhnen at 17,. 3d. per qr.
free on beard. _

--
The advicee from Mimi are generally of an animated
character, and prism re higher in that country than with
us; this has hews semsed primipally by purchases on Ger-
man account. At Amsterdam aomiderable transactions had,
it seems, taken plata, and on Tuohy 601 lbs. old Danzig
was quoted 63a whilst for red Konigsberg of 61 lbs.
weight 605., far lasidasims of 611 lbs. weight 42a. 611, and
for 631 lba. sagmise pee fr.MA bun pill.
At Itetterdamom the had Weak time was not much
doing, which was, however, caned more by the high
pretensions of holders than frau arty want of demand.
Rye was much sought after; and *on wen in favour of
the seller.

From the south we have nothing sow to semmonicate ;
at most of the Mediterranean ports prices had, it seems,
been well supported, but in France the value of wheat and
Hoar has rather tended downwards of late.
By the most recent advice' from the United States wo
learn that holden of flour bad remained firm, and the
prices asked having been above the limits of the English
orders, comparatively little had been done for export. At
New York, Western Canal Hour was worth 5 dole. to 5 dots.
120., which with freight, *to., would bring the cost here
above our present quotations.
