request, at fully higher rates. Irish so in fair demand, at an
abatement of 3d. to 4d. per bushel. American Flour, ne-

Yanmourn, Oct. 2.—The Wheat trade is firm, and the

alteration in price for all sorts, although the trade was not
brisk. A few Beans end Peas at market, which sold readily,

ALEXANDRIA, Sept. 19.—Wheat selling at from 50p. to
to 68p. Beans were maintained at 60p. to b3p., buyers having
taken small quantities for shipment to the Mediterranean.
Hamecno, Sept. 28.—Towards the end of last week good
6211 be. Upland Wheat was sold at 59n. per qr., but the de-
mand for France having fallen off, and supplies rather in-
creased, holders had to submit to • reduction of about 4s.
per qr., at which a fair business was done. Holstein Wheat,
G2lbs., for shipment from the east coast in November, was
sold at 495. to 495. Gd. ; and there are still buyers at 48s. for
present, and 455. for spring ehipment, but holders ask 50s.
and 475. A parcel of Seale Barley, 50Ibe. to bllba, has
been sold at 335. per qr. here; Danish, 5311 n., is held at 28s,
without finding much demand. Oats are egsin rather
higher, Danish, 381 be., fetching 171. 6d., and 361 be., front
the west rout, 16s. 9d. to 17s. Few Beau conic forward.
Peas here have been sold at 435., but can now be bought at
; Danish are held at 3.5 e. to 365. We are without sup-
piies of large Tares ; small are in demand at 40s. to 41s. ;
from the Baltic holder' ask 365. Red Cloverseed is held
rather higher, owing to the bad accounts respecting the
crop, both as to quality and quantity; white is flatter.
Neither Rape nor Linseed Cakes are offering for autumn
shipment.

Kostoscano, Sept. 24.—Wes continue to have but small
supplies of Peas, and we cannot expect to receive anything
of consequence before the farmers have done their out-door
business : whether the supplies will then increase may be
questioned, as it becomes daily more evident that the yield
of new Peas, Tares, and Beans appears to be very short ;
besides, the consumption of these articles will be much larger
than in former years, owing to the Potato crop being a total
failure. We have so little of the new crop coming forward
as yet, that we can form no opinion as to its quality.

WOHCILITRIL, Oct. 2.—There was more business transacted
in our market to-day than has been done for some months
past, and the Hop market, after nine or ten months' dull-
ness, has begun to assume an aspect of business as novel as
agreeable to those engaged in the trade. Picking here
(where there has been any picking to do) has now pretty
well finished, and the Hops are being brought to the
public scale*. Nearly 250 pockets of new Hops and 80 of
old were weighed here to-day, but still the duty for the
Worcester tis estimated below 1,6001. The prim of
new Worcester Hops may be quoted at from 80e. to 90s. per
cwt., and of yearlings at from 751. to 83s.

CATTLE, &C.—COLCHESTER, Oct. 2.—Braintree
Fair being held this day, the show of stock was very short,
compared with the last few weeks; notwithstanding which
the trade was very slack, sad the transactions oonuquently
were few, and prices declined full 5 per cent. The show of
swine was lieu large, as is usual at this season of the year,
the shack of the oorn fields being nearly over. Most of them
were in good condition, and to effect sales a decline of from
ed. to ed. per stone of 81bs. was acceded to, and buyers ware
by no means eager at that reduction. Not more than half
were disposed of
Urreattarrast FAIR was numerously attended, both by
fanners and dealers. There was also a good show of all
kinds of stock, excepting Beef of prime quality, which was
rather limited, and sold readily at fully eed. per lb., inferior
from sd. to ed. There was a fair supply of fat Sheep
Wethers of superior quality fetched 7d. per lb., inferior and
Ewes, 61d. Fat Pigs were not plentiful ; those offered were
bought up quickly at 10s. 6d. per score. There was a large
supply of all kinds of store Cattle ; but in consequence of the
scarcity of keep, trade ruled very dull, and although offered
at a considerable reduction in price, great numbers left the
fair unsold.

HuDIDERSTIELD FAIR, Oct. 4.--Our fair has been pretty
well attended by country deafen to-day, end milk Cows, of
fair breed and condition, have realised from 151. to 201. A

old, lean Cattle of all kinds have been a drug. A pod
quantity of young Pigs have also been akown, which have
been readily sold at fair prices.
No•wieg, Oct. 2.—Our market exhibited • good show of
store cattle ; the trade for all kinds wits very dull, and last
week's prices were barely supported. Fat Beasts a small
show, and trade dull, at Be. 3d. to Be. 6d. per stone of 14Ibe.
The pens were badly filled. Keeping Sheep and Lambs of
all kinds were from Is. to 2e. per head lower. Fat Sheep,
Ba. 6d. to Os. per stone of 14113., without a clearance. Instate
Figs and fat Pork no alteration worth notice.

Calves, 68s. to 60s. Sheep, 6id, to 7d.

SwnstioN, Ott. 4.—Of Beasts the supply was above the

Ttveirrox FA I L.-A large quantity of Sheep was penned,
and thc re was about the average number of cattle; but the
supply of fat stock of all kinds was extremely limited.
Business was slack, sod in what was done prices had a
downward tendency.

YARNROROUOIi CASTLE (WILTS) SHEEP FAIR, Oct. 4.
This is one of the large annual Sheep fairs of Wilts, and the
number for sale approached 80,00 n. The scarcity of Sheep
feed generally caused the trade to be exceedingly inactive,
and sellers had again to reduce their demand per head from
2a. to 3s. The best Down Ewes Fold tolerably at from 365.
to 40s. each ; rod Ewes at 30‘. to 335. ' • inferior, 24e. to 28a.
