'eked, but set generally paid, or less for keel .in plea.

Cintunottle. August 5.-The weather continues very wet
amid stormy, and hitherto little or no pn wren Las been made
in carting, though a large quantity of Wheat is cut. One
small parcel of new was at market, of middling quality,
which realized 59.. The supply of old Wheat was a buudant,
and was readily cleared eft, at an advance of 2s. per qr., the
best samples making 541., red 564.
MANCHESTER, August 5.-The weather during the week
has been fine, though not of a settled character; and busi-
ness in this and the neighbouring markets has consequently
been restricted to the supply of present wants. The prospects
of the harvest, so far, do not, as a whole, promise more than
an ordinary result, if that, as regard; either quantity or
quality. We hail a return of rain last night and this morn-
ing, with a declining barometer. Our market to day is
quiet: there is DO eta k of anything, and the current arrivals
ut home produce, both here and at Liverpool, are no more
than sufficieut for the consumptive demand, which takes all
articles off lowly at the rates of our last. Potatoes are
brought to mark, tin great quantity, and of good quality, at
low prices. Cure-nt rate.: Wheat, per bushel of

NEWCASTLE-ON-TYNE, August 5.-The weather this
week has been upon the whole of an unsettled character,
but not sufficiently se to prove reiurious to the crops. With
favourable weather some few early patches of Wheat will he
rut during the ensuing Inch, but harvest is not (-erected to
be general for fourteen days to three we( ks. The Potatoes
upon the whole continue to be favourably spoken of, bat
there are occasional traces of the disease in this neighbours
hood. The trade during the week has ruled extremely
firm, and on Tuesday no difficulty wee found in placing
Wh. at and Flour at an advance of Is. per qr. and per sack
respectively, other articles meeting, at the same time,
more attention and at better prices than were previously ob-
tainable. At our market this morning we had a moderate
show of Wheat from the growers, and the aerie Is coastwise
be ing also trifling, fresh-thrashed parcels sold steadily at the
rotes of this day se'nnight. The best r, d, 545. to Ms ; white,
from 565. to 585., similar rates being at the tame time psi
for south country qualities, the latter of which, owing to the
I mit 1 quantity, were held with considerable firmness.
For. ign was net generally offered for gale, importers pre-
ferring to keep their stocks in bond, to awns the tall in the
duty, during which interval many vicissitudes are likely to
occur; we, however, quote choke Rostock w ,rth 575. to 58a.
per qr. ; Hamburg and Stettin, 555. to She. per qr.; other
sorts sellieg at proportionate rates. Up..n Flour we rain
our quotations Is. per sack, with very little offering. Rye is
held for more m..ney, but the business pas.ing therein is
trifling. Grinding Barley in good demand, at 255. to 26a.,
according to quality. Malt ur altered, and the same remarks
are applicable to Beans and Peas. Having only a very
scanty supply of Oats from the country, with short arrivals
coastwise, a clearance was early ranted, at an advance o
1.. per qr. Choice Scottish, weighing 4211 e , command.
235. to '24s. per qr., whilst for a large cargo from Grieewalde,
consisting of 1,700 qrs.,l9s. per qr. into granary was made,
the weight being 3813 e. per bushel. No alteration in duties.

NEWPOUT (DMZ OF WlOHT),llingt day's
market was but thinly attends d, most of the homers having
hugun harvest. Wheat sold at about last week's prices.

/contemn, August 6 —We had a large offer of Wheat to-
day, end the demand was good, therefore • heavy business
was done, at full is. per qr. over the prices of last Saturday.
The weather for the last two or three days has been town-
fled, and but little done in the harvest field, and no new
Wheat has yet appeared for sale. A fiw samples shown as
specimens or quality, which, if well harvested, will doubtless
peeve splendid, and the yield like'y to be abundant. The
sale of Flour was lively, at Lat week's price., and best
marks fetched 6d. per sack snore money in a few cases. The
price of Barley nominally the same as before. The crop is
likely to be abundant. Beans, Pi as, and Oats all maintain
their late value. Wheat, white, 63;bs. per bushel, 50s. to Us

Noronon en, August 5. A continuance of wet weather
during the day, with the heavy rains that have fallen this
week, cause considerable excitement in our market, and
holders of Wheat require a further advance on the best
qualities of 2s. to 3s. per qr. ; but the millers buy cautiously,
and only supply their immediate wants. Spring Corn is held
at fully late rates, with but few samples on the market. White
Wheat, 565. to 683. ; red, 534. to 56e. Barley, 30a. per 15

PICTERBOIiOtOIi, Agana s.—The supply of Wheat was
much less to. day than last week; that of Barley and Oats
very short, but tee quantity of Beans offering was larger than
of late. The weaths r being still very unsatled, with a heavy
rain to-day, n used !semen to ask lc to 2s. more than last
week, so that little business has been done. No change in
she value of spring corn. The tolloa int is the
es rrency to the growers: Wheat, new, 425. to 465.;
fins, 48e. to 50s. ; old, 48e. to 50s. Barley, 30s. to 325.;
fine, 341. Oats, new, l&s. to 20s. ; tine, 225. to 245. ; old,
225. ; time, 28e. Beane, new, 38e. to 40s.
PETI\ '.IITH, August s.—The show of Wheat at our mar-
ket to-day was good. Higher prices being generally asked,
millers we.-e unwilling to purchase; from the unfavourable
state of the weather, however, holders were not disposed to
give way, and but few sales were effected. A steady trade in
other grain. Wheat, white, 131. se. to 141. per load; red,
