Hattavotto, August 12.—We had a good supply of Wheat,
and, owing to the millers being very bare of stock, the
di mend was good, and prices very fir ”; but we cannot
quote any advance in prices. We had little doing in Spring
Corn, but prices were fully equal to those of last market

HADLEIOH, August 14.—1 t being a very wet day, the
farmers were asking considerably higher price., more espe-
cially for Wheat, than the buyen would comply with, ana
in consequence scarcely any transactions occurred,

HUNTINGDON, August 12. A moderate extent of business
was done in Wheat, on the terms of last week, all good
samples finding ready buyers. Scarcely a sample of any
other kind of Corn was offered, and prices are nominally the

KENDAL, August 12.—The market was tolerably supplied ;
the farmers at the beginning asked rather higher priers than
could be obtained. Sales were more readily made towards
the close, and at a very little variation from 'art week's
prices. The weather is now more seasonable. Averages for
the week ending August 12: Wheat, 49 qtr., 595. 6d. ; Oats,
7G qrs., 235. 3d.

KINGSTON, August 12.—With • moderate supply, the
trade ruled dull ; and prices may be quoted rather in favour
of the buyer. Barley and Peas are the turn d . Wheat,
Ous. to 60s ; Barley, 306. to 325.; Peas, SBs. to 40s.

LANCARTER, August 12.—Them wu rather a better sup-
ply of Wheat, but in Meal under whet we expected to tied.
The weather having changed for the better on the 9th inst.
with a prospect of a continuance, is was expected that prices
would came down ; however, the principal part was cleared
off at former rates ; if any difference it was in favour of the
farmers. Wheat, per load of 2801bs , from 345. to 345.
Meal, per load of 2401b5, 28s 6d. t., 30s. 3d.

LLICF.STER, August 12.—Market commenced briskly, at
about last week's prices, but clued heavily at Is. lower
Flour the tame as last week.

MALTON, August 12.—The supply of Wheat and Oats is
gond. Wheat is in fair demand at Is. per qr. decline. Oies
sell at last wees's rates. Wheat, white, 565. to 61s. per 40
store ; red, 525. to 575. Oats, 104. to 1014. per stone.
NORTHAMPTON, August 12.—There has been a good show
of Wheat; the finest quality fully supports Ltrt week's
prices. Other sorts much neglected. In spring corn but
little doing at former prices.
PIA mourn, August 12.—The corn trade has been less
lively this week than the preceding, but the advance has
been steadily supported. The weather is very unpropitious
for harvest; it rains almost daily. The Potato disease in
this part of the country is existing to a deplorable ext,nt.

PRESTON, August 12.—The weather from Saturday last
till yesterday was wet and stormy, and very unfavourable for
the crops, consequently the corn trade during the sant, period
ruled firm, with a stead♦ demand to consumers for each
ankle at extreme rates. We have this morning a delightful
change in the weather, fine and d•y. frith brilliant sunshine.
Our Corn Exchange was well supplied with English Wheat
from our neighbouring growers, the deniar d for which was
languid, at a reduction 5(64. to Is. per windle. Irish must be
noted Id, per bushel lower. No change as regards the value
of Flour, but the demand was less active. Oats being scarce,
support previous rates. Farmers' old Oatmeal ranges from
30e. to 31s. 6d. ; few loads of new (quality very middling)
sold at the latter figure. Irish Oatmeal met little notice to-
day, and our quotations can only be realised in retail quan-
tities. Other articles unaltered. The average price of
Wheat this week is &Ss. 24. per imp. qr.
Iticitstosta (Yonualeinn), August 12.—We had a fair
supply of Wheat. Wheat sold from 6s. 91. to 75. 6d. Oats,
2s Bd. to 3s 2d. Barley, 4s. 3d. to 4s. 6d. Beans, 4s. 6d.
to 4s. 9d. per bushel.

SIUMW,III:RY, August 12.—The gloomy reports of the
Potato crop being on the increase, and the unfavourable
state of the weather tor ha t, caused the sellers of Wheat
who attend. d this day's market to demand Metier rates, and
the trade ruled firm at the class, at is. to 7s. fid. per imperial
bushel.

StErutem, August 14.—Wheat in fair supply, and told
readily, at 3s. to As. per qr. advance. Scarce any other
grain offering. Wheat, white, per load, 141. 10s. In 15/. IN.;
red, 13/ 10s. to 141. Barley, 264. to 28s. Oats, 19s. to 21s.
Beans, 345. to 365. Peat, Us. to 404.
WARMINSTER, August 12.—We had a good supply of
Wheat, and one sample of new out of condition ; the de-
mand not good with a reduction front last week. Wheat,
40s. to 635. Barley, 325. to Ms. Oats, 21s. to 261. Beans,
40s. to 455. per qr.

WINCHESTER, August I2.—There was a good supply of
old Wheat; the market ruled exceedingly dull throughout
the day, without any advance upon last week's prices. Oats
and Barley of quick sale, and Is. to 2s. dearer. Beans with-
out alteration.

YARMOUTH, August 12.-We have had a good supply of
at this week. The trade is firm, and last week's prices
are fully maintained for all best gualities. Scarcely a 'ample
of othe rzrain at market, and prices may be called nominally
the same. Harvest has progressed slowly, owing to the
frequent showers during the week ; very little Corn carted
in this neighbourhood at present, and no new samples at
market. Wheat, white, 50s. to 535. ; red, 48s. to 50s. Bar-
ley, 28s. to 29,. Beans, 341. to 365. Peas, 345. to 3.55. Oats,
225. to 265. per qr.
ALTONA, August 8.-To-day we have fine bright summer
weather, and it has every appearance of being settled,
although cloudy this afternoon. Wheat: The advance at
the clove of last week was maintained yesterday and to-day,
with a small supply, but the market was heavy to-day, and
500 to 600 qrs. was the extent of the business done, at 44.. fcr
62116. red Upland. For Baltic shipment there has been
nothing done to-day ;as for the Holstein Wheats, the only
description offering, not less than 41s. on board would have
been taken, .estdes which there were no vessels to be had.
Barley: Scale continues in brisk demand, and the market
has been well cleared at 230. to 245., according to quality,
there remaining purchasers to-day at the latter figure for fine
samples. New Seale Barleys by good samples are offering
for October delivery, but the price asked, say about 235. Gd.
to 24e. on board preclude,. any transaction!' at present. Bal-
tic Barleys have continued rising; for 53Ibs. to 5341 be. cam-
mon Jutland 19s. 9d. on board, with 3s. and S_per cent. freight
for England, has been paid, and for Danish Island there are
buyers at the late advance, but nothing offering. Good Jut-
land 531 to 54Ibs. has just been paid with 21s. 6d. and 31.
freight. Beans on the spot wanting. A cargo of middling
Jabde has been sold at 275. with 3s. freight. Oats have had
some demand, and a couple of cargoes of Danish have been
purchased at 12s. 6d. on board in Denmark, weight, 4011 s.
per bush., with 2s. 3d. and 5 per cent. freight for England.
Rapeseed has been taken readily for the steamers at 245. for
good dry seed, and will be sent away by them so long as op-
portunities offer. Under present circumstances there can of
course be no question of shipments from the Lower Elbe
ports. Of Danish seed there is nothing offering u yet ; the
samples thus far to hand are of fair quality. Cloverseed with•
out transactions, and prices of old quite nominal. The
quality f the Pimples of new whits seed now shown are un-
satisfactory. For new red seed, as per sample shown, 31s.
to 325. might be about the value.
A3IBTERDAN, August 7.-There has been a large business
transacted in Wheat during the week, particularly in the
Polisl• end red Odessa qualities, for which a good sale was
experienced for home wants, as well as for speculation and
export, at an advance of 10f. to 20f. for the former, and 51. to
10f. for the latter. Rye was in good request, at an improve-
ment of 41. to 61. Barley and Oats brought former rates'
with a fair inquiry. Beans were in fair demand. Inland
horse brought 130 f., and Egyi.tian were held from 140 f. to
150 f. per last. Peas met a good sale, and the stocks being
small, higher prices were realised ; for white and grey the
rates obtainable were from 64f. to 74f. per hectolitre. Buck-
wheat rim iced firmly previous terms. Rapeseed had
declined 31., and about 500 lasts were taken.
DANTZIC, August 8.-Thursday's London letters report-
ing continued unsettled weather, our holders were
firmer, and a small lot of 621 b. fine Vollaynian fetched 48a. ;
another, not quite so fine, 475. Total purchases, 2.50 lasts.
We shall have a very fine heavy quality of this year's Wheat,
which is nearly secured. Small lots of excellent Baxley are
selling at 16s. to 17e. per qr., weight 481),. to 4916. Peas
have suffered materially from blight, and it is feared half the
crop will be unavailable for shipping. Freigtt to London,
3.. 6d. ; and Leith, 3s.
GRONINOEN, August 8.-The weather during the past
week has been stormy, with almost continual rain; however,
this morning proved fine, which had the effect of checking the
upward tendency in prices, and caused the demand to become
dull, at barely last Friday's rates. The reports relative to the
potato disease are more general, and its ravages rapt lly spread-
ing. Wheat in steady demand, at a trifling advance over last
Tuesday's currency. Rye in increased supply, and Gd. per
or. lower. Buckwheat and Barley firm. Oats scarce, and
3d. per qr. dearer. Bans and Peas bring full rates. Rape-
seed, of which there was 3,500 qrs. at market, ruled very
heavy, at a decline of 151. to 20s. per last, acccrding to on .-
14. Freight to London or But Coast, 14r. to 15s. ana 10
per cent. per last The f illzwing is the currency:

of 10 qrs.
HAMACRO, August 8.-Notwithstanding the auspicious
weather experienced since yesterday, Wheat was scarcely
easier to buy, and business done since Friday has been at the
rates then current. Upland, of 61 The , has fetched 43s 6d.
per qr. f. o. b. ; of 62 lbs., 445. Hardly any offer from the
outports : we quote Hohtein, of 62 lbs., nominally from 41s.
to 425. A good inquiry for Seale Barley ; our stock appears
to be nearly exhausted ; 49 lbs. to 50 lbs. has fetched 225. Gd.
Holders otDanish have displayed increased firmness, and
Jutland, of 521 lbe. to .53 lbs., held at 21s. 3d., freight 3s. and
10 per cent. Oats offered very sparingly : Danish of 521 lbs.
to 63 lbs. firm at 40s. is 41s. Rye, without any alteration.
Peas wanting. Reputed offered at 221. 10s., but dull.
KONIONBVRO, August 5.-We have fine weather, and our
farmers are busily engaged with the harvest, which has pro-
greased so far that it is probable considerable supplies of
new Corn may come forward early next mon'h ; meanwhile
little is doing here, and quotations are not much to be de-
pended on. New Rye may be bought at 18s. Gd. to 19s. per
qr. ; the quality is fine, and the weight heavy.
LEGHORN, August 5.-There is no alteration in cur mar-
, ket for Wheat. Several cargoes have come in. For Indian
Cum there are buyers to arrive at 84, or about 235. 44., free
, 1 on board.
