By the most recently received advicee from the ctintinent
it appears that the flee weather broke up there about the
same timer with ue. In the south a large proportion of
the crops had beem previously /secured, but in the north the
pester part ethos went being still abroad, mischief would,
it was fears* TOO Ikea the unfavourable change in the
weather. mi., ma the rise in the English markets—
which by mum of the electric telegraph was known
abroad aimed se sem as it occurred—had given an impetus
to prism, end tisetations have risen in the same propor-
tion 1n asst of the principal continental markets as
with se.

At Flan" tas dOwalderable excitement appear' to have pre-
vailed, and vim were on the 10th inst. (Tuesday last) 31.
to 4s. per v. Meter than on that day ee'nnight. The high
prelsrmians 41 holders had checked actual business, as much
as 4415. haviag been asked, and, we believe, in one or two
Inatome* paid, for Gli to 621 be. Bur, and 431. to 445. per
qr. free as board for 1321ba. lower Polish. Vessels had
be-
come rather scares, and 3s. per yr, for London would have
been readily given for A 1 ships. Tim weather had been
unsettled, with more or less rain daily, and the wheat crop
was believed is have suffered from the wet.;
Konigsberg letters of the 10th inst. state that neither
wheat nor rye was considered • good crop, and barley and
oats were reported to be considerably below an average in
yield. Wheat had tended upwards in value, and good high
mixed of 611bs. weight was then worth about 40e. 3d. per
qr. free en board.
At Stettin on the 10th August wheat was held at an ad-
vance of 21. to 3s. per qr. on the rates of that day week.
Several orders had come to hand for the purchase of wheat
on British account, but generally at too low limits to allow
of their execution, and the business actuall7 done at the
enhanced terms had not been important. }or • parcel of
good mixed Polish wheat 40s. per qr. was reported to hays
been paid, and the same price was then asked fur flue heavy
Pomeranian._

Rostock adman of the 10th instant inform us that har-
vest operations had not been brought to a close, and farmers
having been busy in the fields scarcely any supplies had
been brought forward. The stocks in granary were gene-
rally in the bands of parties by no means ever anxious to
realise, and it would have been difficult to have bought flue
quality at 38e. per qr. free on board, many demanding a
still higher figure.
At Hamburg, on Tuesday, business was checked by the
high rates asked by millers, 40s. to 41s. per qr. free on
board having bean asked for good qualities of red wheat a'
oatports.
In the Datch market. a further rise seems to have beer
established, and at Rotterdam, on Monday, 495. to 60a
per qr. was paid for new Rhine wheat, and 445. for fins
Zealand.

By the most recent advice. from France we learn that
great dissatisfaction was being expressed by !amen re-
specting the result of the harvest. Wheat seems to have
suffered extensively from the exemsive heat in July, the
berry having been shrivelled or dried up before it had
"rived at maturity from this cause a short yield to
the acre was, very generally complained of. The eons.-
games bad MP: a rise in prices of wheat at all the prin.
ainal =Olaf: is the interior, and at Paris on Wednesday
flour was 21'. per sack dearer theft on that day week. The
present t".me of the letters from France would lead to the
tous".usion that that country will not have any surplus
quantity of wheat or flour for export; but we 'hall require
