foreement of the blockade of the Clemson ports, which, frit
be of long continuance, mast tend to increase very materlaliy
the value of all grain. On Tuesday a large busineqs was
done to Wheat, Flour, and other articles, at prices that were
not. prevd:usly obtainable, and as the week advanced all de-
scriptions of corn were held with increased confldsnos. At
our millet this morning we had a much less supply of
Wheat from the grow.rs, and haying little fresh in Irons
the coast since Tuesday, all descriptions were taktn off
freely at an improvement of 2s. per qr., select white, from its
scarcity, 00mi:sanding even a greater advance. For choice
yellow Norfolk and Suffolk Wheats 49.. to 50E, and for a
stash lot of Wisbech white, 635. was obtained, sy, igked
6311e5, whilst for old Stavin 48.. was refused, and 61s. for
fine mixed Danizic. Hamburg red was worth 48s. in quan-
tity, and 49s in ret .il, upheld 83 lb.. per bushel. Thur is
scare', and le. per sack desrer, with every prohshi:Py of the
first supplies of choice households touching 86s. pit sack.
Malting Barley fully as dear, and grinning sorts in more re-
quest, at an enhancement of Is. per qr. In Malt, lit•le passiog
but pubes remain unchanged. Boling Peas are held Is. to
2a. higher, which tends to check business, bat Beans are in
little favour, though offered at previous rates. Having
a more moderate show of Oats from the growers, sales
were more quickly effected, in spite of large arrivals from
Scotland, at an improvement of Is. per qr. Foreign
unaltered. The following are the prices : Wheat, British

NIWPORT, ISLE OF WIGHT, April 14.—At this day's
market brat samples of Wheat sold at an advance of ls. to
2a. per qr. on lad week's prices; other descriptions sell
slowly at low prices. Barley, Beans, and Oats same as last
week. Wheat, 30s. to 48e. Barley, 22.. to 265. Beans, 30s.
to 345. Oats, 18s. to 225.

Noewicu, April 14 -In oar market this day our farmers
brought a fair show of Wheat, and in consequenceof the great
firmness and in many bigamies the rise on the leading mar-
kets, ours also rose, and 2s. per qr. advance was fairly sus-
tained. For some months past there bar been great unwil-
lingness on the part of the growers to submit to 435. and 44e.
per qr., and the utmost anxiety was manifested to supply a
pretext for raising pries ; and now, having the Baltic porta
under embargo, this is bailed as sufficient to expect soles
few shillings per qr. advance, and if the farmers remain firm
we cannot Mil to run up to 60s. per qr. Several large lots of
foreign wen offered, but the 2s. per qr. advance checked
sales, and little business was traneuted. Barley remains
much the same the malting season is far advanced, and
little business effected at late rates. Oats, Beans, and Peas
firm, at leper qr. advance. For Flour • good demand was
experienced, at Is. to 2s. per sack advance. Wheat, white,
475. to 495. per qr. ; red, 441. to 475. Barley, nultiog, 284.
to 311. ; grinding, 245. to 275. Beans, 345. to 374. Peas,
281. to 335. Oats, 16s. to 245. Flour, fine household,
f.0.b., 325. 6d. per Back of 2801b5., purchasen finding sacks
and claiming one month's credit ; retail, Is. 9d. per stone.
PETNIMOIIOOOII, April 14.-We have a good supply of
Wheat to this day's market, but not so many Oats and
Barley as of late. The demand for Wheat has been good
today, at an advance of 2s. on fine, le. on the inferior sorts.
Barley and Beano are scarce, and full Is. dearer. Oats in
demand, at late rates. Currency to the growers : Whist, new,
38s. to 425.; fine, 445. to 465. Barley, 265. to 28s. ; fine,
311. Oats, new, 14s. to lea. ; fine, 16s. to 20s. Beans, new,
281. to 30s. ; old, 365. to 38e.

PETWORTH, April 14.-There was more disposition to
purchase on the part of millers at our market to-day, some-
what higher rates being generally asked, and in some in-
stances given. For other grain we ein note but little alters-
tiou in prices or demand. The following are the present
prices: Wheat,white, 91 103. to 101. 10s. ; red, 91. 103. to
101. ss. per load. Barley, melting, 243. to 265. per qr. ;

Paranner, April 14.-We have again to note limited sup-
plies of all descriptions of grain, Flour, and Oatmeal, both
Ireland and coastwise. Influenced by other leading
markets, the trade here during the week has been tolerably
active ; and in most instances rather enhanced rates have
been realised. The supply of Wheat at our Corn exchange
to-day was small, but tee demand was not active, though an
advance of lc. per windle was estebliiheel. A few retail sales
were made of Irish, at a slight amendment; whilst foreign
commanded 2d. to 3d. per bushel more meney. Flour im-
proved in value 64. to Is. per sack and barrel respectively.
Oats being in fair request, the best samples were held for an
advance of Ad. to Id. per bushel. Fanners' Oatmeal without
change, but, upon a more general inquiry fur Irish, a mode-
rate business resulted, at Gd. per load over the currency of
this day se'nnight. Other articles as betore. Present

mostly sold. Barley, Is. per qr. dearer, with a brisk trade.
Oats dull, at last week's prices.
WARMINSTES, April 14.-We had a good supply of Wheat
to-day. The demand was quicker than lest week, and prices
a shade higher, though nothine quotable beyond hue occur-
rences. The supply of good Barley was thin, for which
there was a fair demand ; and, considering the quality, the
sales were at prices fully Is. above last week's currencies.
For Oats there was a better demand, and previous prices
were well maintained. The trade for Beans and Peas sou
steady, and without alteration in value. Wheat, old, 40s.

full attendance of dealers. For Wheat there was a brisk
demand, and a considerable buvinces was transacted at an
advance of from Is. to 21. per qr. There was a better vent
for Barley, and an enhanced price of Is. per qr. was gene-
rally obtained. There was a more active demand for Oats
than on this day week, and althouzh higher prints could not
be obtained, last week's currencies were firmly supported.
Beans and Pees were a heavy trade, but cannot be quoted
lower. In Seeds there was not much business dojo& but
without alteration in value. Wheat, 81. 10s. to 121. it,,. per
load. Barley, 21a. to 30s. Oats, 163. to 2'2s. Beans, 345. to

Wlessca, April 14.-The supply continues moderate of
all kinds of train. The farmencommenced by asking much
higher prices, which the buyers resisted, and towards the

last week's rata of 2s. per qr. on Wheat, and 6d. to Is. oa
Oats and Beans, with a good demand. Wheat, white, 445. to
48a per qr.; extra, 50e. ; red, 424. to 455.; extra, 475. Oats,

WORCESTER, April 14.-Our market to day was well sup-
plied with Wheat, for which much higher primes were de-
mended, but no progress could be made in sales at more than
Is. per qr. over the currency of this day se'nnight. Barley
held for higher rates, which Ganged but little to be done
therein. Oat. sold to some extent at former prices. Beans
and Peas in demand, at a trifling improvement in value.
