1131-ultnroati, Aram 17.-Our supply of Wheat was mo-
dereetity good, and was in brisk demand. The but riins of

ItlettllVlTElt, APRIL 17.-We hare had a good demand
for Wheat and Flour during the week, at steadily advancing
prices ; and whilst on the one hand every day brings addi-
tional evidence of the exhausted state of 'stocks in the agri-
cultural counties (to which alone we can look for home
supply), the demand for France, Belgium, &c., at prices
higher than eta be afforded to send to this district, is not
only trenching upon our already diminished home stock, but
diverting a portion, probably a large one, of the foreign
supply which would otherwise Sod as way to our shores.
These considerations, and the cold, ungenial weather
which still prevails, begin to excite attention, and at
London, Liverpool, and Wakefield yesterday, a simulta-
neous advance of fully 3e. per qr. on Wheat took place,
with very extensive demand fee both that article and Flour,
everything else participating in the improvement. Our mar-
ket to-day is fully attended the quantity of Wheat and
Flour on offer, either English or foreign, is email, and both
are held firmly, at an advance of 6d. r bushel on Wheat,
2s. to 3s per barrel on foreign, and 3e. to 4s. per seek on
' English Flour. Beans Is. per qr. higher. In other articles
no quotable advance, but the tendency is upwards. The trade
altogether bears& firm end confidentaapect. Priers current

Beans, Peas, and Rye no alteration.
MIWCABTLE-ON-TTNIS,APRIL 17.—The weather still con-
tinues cold and unseasonable, and our reports from the in-
terior with reference to the growing Wheats are not quite
so favourable u we have htd occasion to note of late. The
trade throughout the peewit week has exhibited a very
buoyant aspect, and large sales of Wheat have been made
for export, for local consumption, and for shipment coast-
wee at an advance of 2a per qr., whilst at at the same
time, a good business has been done on the spot in
Flour at an improvement of 2s. per eck, other
articles being in better request at slightly enhanced rates.
At our market this morning we had a moderate show of
Wheat from the growers, for which a ready sale was ex-
perienced at an advance of 34 to 4s. per sr., whilst f,reign
anntuunded more attention, at a further nee upon the rates
obtained during the week of 25., our millers' attention being
chiefly directed to such qualities, south country samples
being held at comparatively high rates, which checked busi-
ness. For a cargo of Orefawald new red, weighing naturally
68 Ilbs. per bushel, but made 631b5., 78e. per qr. was procured.
I For Flour there continue:an increasing inquiry, and the
improvement since this day se'nnight cannot be estimated
at less than 3s. per sack, thus estanlishing the nominal ad-
vance made by our millers last Saturday. Rye rattle more
inquired after. Malting Barley in better demand, good
Pomeranian, tit for malting or distillation, being saleable at
4Gs. per qr. of 504 lbs., whilst Norfolk or Suffolk kinds,
weighing 54 lbs. per bushel, are meltable at 545. per ginner.

NORWICH, Arun, 17.—We had a very full attendance of
growers and earn dealers at this market to-day, and at the
opening of the business full 6.. per qr. over the prices of last
Saturday was d,mataltd for all descriptions of Wheat, but
there being no di mend for Flour, f.0.b., at anything liko •
similar advance, very little was done until more mo-
derate terms were proposed, which lid to business at
about 44 per v. in advance of our prices of last week, and
at the close of the market many samples were in hard for
next Saturday. Upon the whole, there was a good otter
from the growers, although we had none from dealers at a
distance, generally delivered by railroad, yet It was quite
equal to the demand. No offer of foreign has yet oonte to
hand, although at this period of the seaman we geserally hove
• fair quantity. In Barley eery little is ilog, as the season
for matting is now nearly essatuded, but pdeet are fully as

of the English markets, our trade has been very unsteady
since last Saturday ; we have had, however, a large demand,
and higher prima have been paid fur all articles excepting
Indian Corn. Wheat has advanced fully 2a. per barrel, and
as this article is in few hands, it is held with much firmness.
Barley has gone off in quantities, both for malting and seed,
ing purposes, at fully late rites. Oats from their scarcity ard
high prices are saleable only for seed arid re( ding purpeses.
The trade in Indian Corn has ban very large, but voices
have yielded sour.vrhat under the preemie of Coll,innowk
heavy supplier. Flour rneeze en iniprved ch mend, and all
qualities are again dearer by lb. per sack. Rye ideal is still
neglected. The fullewing are the present price. of Oran,

1,000 barrels; Flour, 280 hurtle.
'lavas, Aeon. 17.--The put week ha, been one of ex-
traordinary fluctuation in the prices of Wheat and Flour.
In the early part of the week good Wheat fetchel from 051'.
to 103(., and even to-day Wheat front England and from
the north of Etifupe, la worth DO! N%f per tack. At the
Montiviniers market on Thursday Ito pace o. homelr7.",,d
Wheat was 1011.,having rieem in the coarse idthe
even 3f. On Tuohy and Wedmsda,, Flour from New
York was sold, in a few small lots, at Mi. aoc. to fe6f., and
that from New Orleans at 43f. to 54f. Within the last few
deys, however, a great number of arrivals have taken place,
an consequence of which, Flour, in particular, has
gone down from 2f. to 3f. Theoe striven have
recruited the market to the amount of 70,000 hectolitres
of grain, and 23,000 barrels of Flour. More than 20,000
of the rock of this latter article are from America, and the
remainder, something short of 3,000 barrel., are I rom Eng-
land. From England also there he. been 14 cargoes of
Wheat; from the north of Europe, including Ilan:Mort, 19
cargoes ; and from America, about 3,000 Packs of Wm at, 3.000
of Barley, and 200 barrels of maize. From 8,000 to 10.000
barrels of Flour have changed hands is this market during
the week, and most of it at the highest prices named above.
The sore market et Havre has luau, need that of ROllOll,
when, on Friday last, Floor was sold at 10.5 f. to lole eh*
sack; but the transactiose were limited to the immediate
and pressing allots of the bakers of the town and
neigh-
hourhood. At Cheroourg, where they have not the same
facilities for quick informaticn so to the state of the market
cad the entrepots a. they have at Rouen, the last market
day was slack in purchuors, said prices were diminished by
4f. per seek.

WOOL—Lortrm.—The Woul market, both for
colonial and foreign, remains very quiet, wi'hout any new
feature eith.r as to &wand or prices. The importation
still continues very small from all parts.

BUM/FORM—The recent advance in the rate of interest
has tended to make business dull, as the spinners state that
they were unable to make prime-cost, with money at an
easy rate • but as the supply of Word coming to market is
only limited, it !as prevented any further decline.

EXITEIL.—For Yolk Wool there has arisen an inquiry,
which, although u yet but partial, is ber.eflcial in its ten-
dency. Std. per lb. ha. been given for it, and for somewhat
large quantities, in the West. In our market, howevir, we
quote Yolk Wool at from 84.1. to 84d. per lb.
Leann—la EonErb them has bees a quiet demand for
eombing and clothing Wiwi', and prim ore without any
chute. 1)own nimblest Wools are not plentiful, and go off
more freely than the deeper grown kind. In foreign there
is no variation. The amounts from Austria and Itussia con-
tinue to advise of large contracts being made for English
and Coniluental house., at an advance of Id. to 3d. per lb.
on last lair's prices. The Netherlands manufacturer. and
French Saxon comber, have almost cleared the German
markets of useful Wool,

LHICESTER.—Spiunen are working short time. and they
arc not enabled to buy wools upon lower terms, although in
some instances lower prices for yarns have been submitted to.
LieenrooL.—The public sale on the 15th, of 300 bslee of
East India and Persia' went off satisfactorily, at priors equal
to tho-e obt tined at the sale in March. The imports of Irish
Wool into Liverpool fur the past time months amount to
1,258 bags, against 441 bags in the corresponding quarter of
1846, being as increase of nearly 200 per cent.

WA X ertii.e.—This market continues in the state last re-
ported. No doubt the late strinitetit measures of the Bauk
of England have caused the business doing to be of a limited
character. Wethers are flat, and the stocks of them at
market bring large, prime are barely maintained. The de-
mand fur Hugs is quite equal to the eupply, and they are
de creasing, so that if our supplies are not augmented, which
is not likely before clip, the prices of them must improve •
little, or the consumption be driven on Wetbers ; the
latter is the more likely, ma we believe spinners are carrying
on an rommuntrative business.

CATTLE, &c.—SMITHIPIELD, Two o'Clock.—The
number of Beasts is ery large for the time of year. An ap-
prehension that the weather is coming in much warmer
causes a slow trade. The choicest Scots cannot be quoted at
more than 4s. 4d., and 4s. is the extreme price for big short-
horns. There arc nearly 300 from Holland, about 400 kola
Scotland, 2,300 from Norfolk and Suffo:k, and the remainder
from various parts of the country. We have a few more
Sheep ; the most selling descriptions are making about the
Lame as of late, but big fat Sheep are rather lower. We have
IGO from Holland. Small young Lambe are much in re-
quest ; indeed, all kiwis are selling better, the supply being
Short and weather more favourable. Trade for Calves is very
slow, at rather lower prices than on Friday loot; there are
20 from Holland. We have a large aLpply of Pigs; late
prices are with diffirulty obtained.
