Doinaar, May 4.-The weather continues beautiful, and
our market eery moderate supplies, is but slightly
*eased ease Tuesday. Wheat is • dull and Oats a lively
sale at last day's piece. Is Flour the banns pas lug has
been very limited. Indian Corn is a moderate sale at en-
vious prices. In other things we melee no change. Present
nekes:-Wheat, white, 241. to 275. ; red, 225. to 265. per
2801bs. Oats, 10s. 6d. to 13s. 6d. per 1961b5. Barley, 14e. to

Bauer, May 3.-The weather during the week has
been dry and warm, and our farmers are all badly ensued
in the fields, completing the spring sowing, which, in some
measure accounts for the mall supply of pain at market
this week. Wheat is in good demand, and prim' un-
changed. Flair is a slow sale at about former arias
American, 24.. 6d. to 26e. per barrel. Barley scarce, and
sells freely at our quotations. Oats are in small "apply, and
demand dull. Oatmeal : The supply continues moderate,
and price unchseged. Indian Corn sells slowly. Yellow,
81.65. to 81. 10s.; white, 81. to 81. 6.. per ton. Flan: ed
eells freely at 32a. is 365. for Riga, and 70e. to 74e. for Datcb.
Coax, May 4.-Since our last report the weather ham been
beautifully flue. The showers which fell lest week having
bees reseeded hybridised warm samides, the gear lands,
se well ea the yams Wbmt, have leepromi peek, and the
general sepia a the mantry hes besem• mare premiaing and
a.urbbiug. Toe arrivals of foreign grain continue very
moderate, and the supplies of that ot home growth very
trifling. The stocks of Indian Corn in this part are ra-
pidly running low. This week a large business bag bee°
dins in the article, so that the coesamptioa that is
eau on, and the fact that the supplies coming forward will
fall far short of what was generally expected, we look for a
further advances in the value of this grain. With referents
to the future supply of Wheat from abroad, as much will
depend upon the continuance or non continuance of the
Danish blockade, we cannot, of course, speak with any ar-
able, ; but we incline to the opinion that with a eon.
Samna of hostilities in that quarter, we shall have Wheat
aurae sad dearer. The prices of grain at our market
Imes undagone little elteratioe, but Barley end Oat sowing
brim 'early brought to a close, the value of thorn ankles,
Mend purposes, tends downward. In prepared Wheat we
have had little doing. In foreign also, until yesterday,
when some dimmitioa to make purchases was manifested,
bat a trifling amount of trainers was trassaeted. We
quote the value of both articles 6d. to Is. lower than the
ram of last week. Inferior Wheat is inquired for, out fo Mae'.
The stocks of prepared Oats in store here are reduced to
a narrow compass. Holders evince much firmness, and there
is little disposition to sell except at higher rates. An offer of
ls. 9d. fey a parcel of blacks having been refused, we may
quote the ealm of the article lls f.o.b. In Flour the bra 4
ass doing has been quite in retail, gad the advance tag•
bliAted some days since has not been supported. Bakers are
engaged to working off late purchases, and until they are
again in the market as purchasers we cannot expect any de-
cided improvement. In Indian Corn, as we have previously
remarked, a large trade hes been done, and we may quote
the article a free sale et Is. 63. to 5,1. per ton advance, the
current prices being 81. 7e. 6d. to 81. 12e. 63 the latter
figure, however, bane scarcely obtainable. Wheat, red,
21e. 6d. per 20 stone. Barley, Ile. to 18.. per 16 stone. Oat',
11.. to 13s. 3d. per 14 stone.
May 6.-At this day's market Wheat WWI in
better demand, and a large business would have been done if
fine samples appeared, but the stock is very small. Barley
and Oats a free sale; Rye in improved demand, at 71. per
ton; Flour of coarse qualities improving in value; Indian
Corn has fully recovered the depression of last week. The
arrivals tenuous moderate. The weather during the
week has been warm. with east wind. Rain would
be raced beneficial. Wheat has not planted so well
es anal; It is thin oa the ground. -Barley and Oats
me very backward. The trade in Breadstuff' has
hem more extensive than during the reading week.

WATIRTOZD, May 6.-The weather having become very
flee and seasonable, the grain markets in this district during
the week have generally ruled dull, and no purchase have
been made except to supply the immediate wants of con.
.omen. At this moraing's market there was scarcely a
sample of fanners' Cairn exhibited ; holden of granule(' par-
eels were firm, snd the prices of this day es'anight may be
spin fleeted for Wheat, Bailey, and Mane, while Oats
were darer by 3d. to 4d. per barreL Choice brands of
Flour won not cheaper, bat interior marks were difficult to
quit at a reduction of Is. per sack. Our trade tu ing now
strictly a hand-to-mouth one, with the hams crop all but ex-
heated, our future prices will mainly depend on foreign
supplies. The consumption of mane food must neese
be great for three months to come, and unless our impale
prove mach larger than they have been of late, full prises
may reasonably be looked for. Present aloes : - Undried-

HISIDLLDT, May 6.-The weather during the week hes
been dry, perhaps rather paroling for the season of the year;
the wind has been mostly from the east ; during nights we
have had slight feasts, and generally bright sunshine during
the day. At ear country markets this week we have had
moderate supplies of Wheat and Oats, but small of Barley
and Beans. The demand being good, both for local con-
sumption and export, ales were easily made at last week's
rates. Here today we had a small supply of Barley; but
fair supplies of both Wheat and Oats. We bad a good many
buyers at market ; sales quick, more particularly of Oat+, at
fully lest week's rates. Wheat. 425. to 49.. per qr. Barley,
225. to 28s. Oats, 16s. 6d. to 20e. 6d. Oatmeal, per bag of
'8016a., 26e. to 26e. 6d.

POTATOES. SOUTHWARK, WATERSIDE, May
7.—The Contissatel arrivals the last week have bees my
extensive, and have met a dull sale at • considerable re-
daction kom owe *emu quotations ; the warm weather has

The supply of Beasts is smaller, and there is • more names...

mid et offer, and our top quotations are obtainable only for
the said selling kinds. The weather being good, no doubt
• late essasaise will be effected. The number of Sheep is
else adequate, however, to the distend; prices are
stage INglar but they are not cheerfully gives. :The
westinir is rather too cold for lamb; still prices remain about
