brat 101.1 at 345. per qr.; other qualitier at from 29.. to 325.

more money; white, grey, and maple, selling at Is. per qr.

more money.
ATLESSCRT, Feb. 26.—Prices arc still es per last week.' I 4
quotations, with • dull trade.
BATH. Feb. 26.—Our market is well supplied with Wheat,
which is mostly out of condition, and has but a dull sale, at
downward prices. Barley is also rather cheaper; yet the de-
mand is tolerable good for Oats, Beans, and Peas we may
quote them again lower. Wheat, 48s. to 50s. Barley, 31s.
to 349. Oats, 239. to 265. Beans, 42a. to 455. White Peas,
4th. to 505.; grey, 425. to 48s.
BEDFORD, Feb. 26.—There was a fair amount of busineu
done in Wheat and Barley at the rates of last market, with I
a good demand fur the best descriptions of Oats. The trade
fer Beans and Peas was very inactive, anti the price some. , •
thing in favour of the buyer. A little demand for spr:ng
Tares for sowing.
BOSTON, Feb. 26.--Extreme wet weather causes Wheat to
come to band in worse condition, and buyers less disposed
to increase their stocks; prices are, how.ver, maintained.
Beaus meet less attention, and to be had rather lower. Oats
support prices for all good corn.
CANTERBURY, Feb. 26.—Our market was well supplied
with all sorts of grain ; trade very dull.
CARLISLE, Fob. 26.—We had a fair supply of Wheat
at our market this morning, which realised an advance of
6d. per bushel on last week's rates. Oats were liberally
brought forward, and generally soli at the prices of last
week. Barry wits in small supply, and was taken at a slight
advance.
CncLst'rOno, Feb. 25.—There was not a large 'apply of
Wheat at market this day; the price* of last week were fully
maintained for all the best qualities; those out of condition
were a slow sale. The price of Barley was also maintained;
but Beans sad Pea: were Is. per qr. cheaper. Lest white
'Wheat, 56e. to Stir. ; tine red, 50a. to 52e. per qr.
CoLenssraa, Feb. 26.—Farmers are only waiting for dry
weather to commence spring seeding—at present there is no
prospect of settled weather; and the damp weather prevents
stacks being taken into the burns. Little business is passing
in Wheat, and prices remain about stationary. Barley, of
the finer qualities, is in demand at late rates. The interior
kinds are plentiful ; but do nut much give way in price.
Beans generally come to hand is soft condition—such are
cheaper. Many of the new Clover and Trefoil seeds are of
very inferior quality, and sell at low prices. Fine articles
arc sought after at gradually enhancing rates.
ExErau, Feb. 25.—We have had a very dull market to-
day for all descpiptioas of grain. Wheat sold at a reduction
of la. tole. per qr. Barley and Oats also sold at reduced
prices, say, 6d. to is. per qr. on this day week.
GLOUCESTER Feb. 26.—At our market this day English
Wheat has been in fair supply, and found buyers at last
week's prices. Foreign has met a ready sale fer good qua-
lilies, at fully former rates. In Beans and Burley little
passing, no alteration being noted is
their value. Oats
freely offered, at Is. to Is. bd. per qr. less money. During
the week, the supply of English Wheat has been large, and
the condition of most samples very middling. Good dry
qualities have sold readily, at late rates; %hint ether descrip-
tions were difficult to quit at our quotadens. Fine fore gn
Wheat is demand, at tell prime; secondary sorts are unsale-
able. Malting and grinding Barley in good supply, and Is.
per quarter cheaper. Beans anti Oats are freely offered at
Is. per quarter reduction, without inducing buyers to come
forward.
GUILDFORD, Feb. 26.—There is not much variation to
notice in the st to of our Wheat trade. The supply was
more than sufficiew, prices being in most instances the

same as last week.
KINGSTON, Feb. 26.-Wheat, best, fully se dear; damp
and poor samples not in rigout. Barley made the prices
of last week. Oats iu greater demand, for seed chiefly, at
prices from 20e. to 2els. per qr. Beans sold readily ; best at
48s. per qr. ; other lots at Imm 445. to 465. Peas found
buyers at (rem 41e. to 475.
BIARLEOROUGH, Feb. 26.-Wheat: best sold quite as
high ; poor and damp not in great demand; prices ter best
white and red, at from 131. to 13/. 1.35. per load; second
quality, 121. 10..; inferior, 111. to 121. Flour and Bread as
last week. Barley was offered freely at last week's prices.
Oats from 18, to 26a. per qr. Beans plentiful ; demand
good ; no alteration in price. Peas inquired for by t.,rmers fur
sowing; white and grey were no lower; maple a trifle down.
MANCHESTER, Feb. 26.-The trade has continued study
during the week, and there has been a moderate consump-
tive demand for each article at late prices, both iu this and
the neighbouring markets. To-day, though prices are firm,
the sale is slow for everythiug. Bums and ludien Corn are
ls. per qr., Malt and ()atm wl each enl. to Is. per load
cheaper, but fur other articles we retain the quotations of
our last.
NEWCASTLE-ON-TYNE, Feb. 26.-The weather this week
has been of a very variable character, a good deal of rain
and snow having fallen at intervals, accompanied with a
tempestuous wind. Although the arrivals of Wneat and
Flour during the week have been more moderate than of
late, business could only be promoted by submitting to
a further decline of Is. per qr. unon Wheat, and Is.
per sack uaen Flour, other articles, at the same
time, meeting a moderate inquiry at nearly a similar depres-
sion. At our market this morning we had a less supply ol
Wheat from the growers, and grenaried sample• being held
with more firmness, a clearance was steadily effected at a
shade over last week's prices, and we think it not impro-
bable that a portion of the recent decline wid be recovered,
as shipments are not comiug so freely forward as hitherto.
In Flour there was rather more passing, but 375. cannot be
exceeded for choice households, whilst doubtful marks meet
with little attention at shout our preview' currency. In
Rye we have little change to note. Mating Barley in slow
request, and, when tales am made, the turn in favour of the
buyer. Malt dull, and inclining cheaper. Beans also, some-
what easier, and the same may be said with regard to boilieg
Peas. Having a large supply of Oats front the couutry, with
liberal arrivals coastwise, voles could only be effected by sub-
mitting to a decline of fully Is. per qr. The arrivals this
week coastwise, are : Wheat, 601 qrs. ; Rye, 190 ; Barley,
222; Malt, 23; Oats, 1,882; Peas, A ; Flour, 400 sacks.
NEWPORT (ISLE OF WIOHT), Feb. 26.-There was but
little business done at our market to-day, without any alte-
ration
in prices. Wheat add at from 45'. to 62*. Barley, I
malting, 30e. to 325.; grinding, 265. to 295. Oats, 22e. to
245. Beane, 40s. to 441, Peas, Ms. to 40s. Flour, 40e. per
sack.
NORWICH, Feb. 26.-Our market was barely supplied
with Wheat to-day from the growers, and, the demand being
limited, prices remained the same as last week ; merchants
offering pretty freely, both English and foreign, at late
prices. Flour met • sale at late rates. Barley remains the
same u last week. Beans, Is. per qr. cheaper. Peas, also
ls. per qr. cheaper. Oats remain the sane, and a slow sale.
l'ETERBOR0,:011, Feb. 26.-The 'apply of Wheat and
Barley is not so large as of late, but there is a fair quantity
of Beans and Oats offering. The millers take rdf all the
good qualities of Wheat at tally late rat s; the inferior sorts
are offered at rather less money. Barley gait(' as dear. Oats
Is. cheaper. New Beans, from the large supply, aro Is.
lower.
Peewonrie, Feb. 26.-The continuance of damp weather
caueing the samples to come in out of conditian, the trade
in Wheat was dull here to-day. Barley and other grain in
slow demand, the demand for aced being checked.
READING, Feb. 26.-But little business could peacibly be
done in our Corn market to-day, in consequence of fhe
incessant rain. The few transactions that could pessihly be
made in Wheat was at the full rates of last wick, the
supply of which wae short. In other doer:pawls of grain,
the tr isle being dull, fird the weather so very we;,esallicient
business was het done to allow of quoting any alteration in
prices.
SAFFRON WALDEN, Feb. 26.-Wheat comes to hand so
very damp, that there is but a dull market for it ; but
dry samples, of which there aro hut few, maintain decent
prices. Barley the nine. Oats, Peas, and Beans, lower.
SUNDERLAND, Feb. 26.-The weather has ken broken'
all the week, and a great deal of rain has fallen since last
night, which may account for tha rather small supply of
grain from the farmers to day. The arrival. coastwise have
been 1,350 qrs. of Oats, end 330 sacks of Flour. Wheat met
with ready .alo at about last wok's prices, theugh in re her
soft condition. The best Wheats are worth Ols. to 3.ie. ;
good wrings parcels, 30s. to 535. ; and inferior qualities,
which are not in much request, 16s. to 48s. per qr. South
country Wheats and goad foreign aro in demand at these
prices : Malting Barley is slow sale at 28r. to 32e. Beans are
in demand, ler ac ed, at 40s. to 425.: and grey Peas at 33s to
