Prraithuitocoac, Orr. 22.—The wet weather prevent
oar farmers from thrashing, and in consequence our sup-
plies of all grain are small here to-day. Wheat was fully
4s. per qr. dearer, 611bs. red making 72.. to 735. per qr.
Barley made 2s. per qr. more money, best samples fetching
445. to 455. per qr. Oa•s about the same as last week.
Beans 2s, per qr. dearer, new making 484., and old up to
foGs. per qr.

READING, OCT. 22.—Our wheat market was rather
thinly supplied at the commencement of the market, and
beat samples made is. to 21. per qr. more money than last
week ; subsequently more samples were shown, and prices
receded a trifle. Good malting barley was scares, and ob-
tained fully le. per r. advance of last market (in some in.
stances 2e.), as did also secondary qualities ; in short, all
dercripticus of corn partook of the advance.
W1hIlte:1, OcT. 22.—Our supply at to-day's market is
again very short of any kind of grain, and the farmers re-
quiring their reed, the little wheat offering to the trade was
readily sold at 2s. to 3s. per quarter more money than last
week. Oats, beans, and barley in short supply, and each
rather dearer. Prices to the growers:—Wheat, old, 60e.
to 73e. per qr. ; new, 66,. to 78s. Oats, lid. to lid. per
stone. Beans, 46j. to 43a. per qr.

WORCEbfint, Oct. 22.—Our market was well supplied
with wheat to-day, and the whole sold readily at au ad-
Vance of 2s. to 3s. per qr. Barley fully as dear. Oats again
rather higher. Beans rose Is. per qr. resa very scarce.
Touts, Oct. 22.—We have a very small supply of wheat
at market to day owing to our farmers being so busy pre-
paring the land for seed. The very high rates askrd
checked the demand, and only a small business was done
at an advance of is. per qr. Barley ready sale at 2s. per
qr. over last week's prices. Beans and oats fully as dear.
Flour 3.. per sack higher. Wheat, white, 775. to 82s. per
qr. imp. ; red, 745. to 761. Barley, malting, 465. to 43.. ;
grinding, 365. to 365. Beans, 565. Malt, 649. to 665.
Oats, I3d. to lid. per stone of Illbs. Flour, 57a. to 595.
per sack of 2801bs.

KIRKCALDY, OCT.22.—The weatht r improved on Sunday,
' and continued favourable for the gathering in of the out-
atanding corn crops and potatoes till Thursday evening;
throughout all Friday we had drenching rains ; this morn-
ing we had heavy showers; now it is fair, with some appear-
ance of continuing so ; but the ground must be wet. At our
' country markets this week we had less grain of any kind
offering than fur some weeks put. Old wheat was held
with great confidence, and in many instances 29. per qr.
advance refused; any new fit formed sold readily at 2s. per
qr. over last week's rates; inferior neglected. Barley and oats
maintained about last week's prices. Here to-day we had
small supplies of all kinds of grain. Sales quick. Wheat,
both old and new, at 2s. per qr. advance. Barley and oats
both 6d. per qr. dearer. Wheat, old, 725. to 80s. per qr. ;
new, 60s. to 729. Barley, new, 345. to 40s. Oats, new, 245. ,
to din, 6d. Oatmeal, per bag of 2801b5., 395. to 40s.
Dvnxix, Oct. 21.—Our corn market te-day was by no
means so firm as of late; holders of home-grown grain of
all kinds were more desirous to sell, and purchasers less
anxious to buy. Wheat was dull, but not lower. Oats,
even of the best qualities, could be bought on easier terms
at the close of the market. Grinding barley was Gd. to Is.
cheaper, and malting barley supported its price.
WATERFORD, OCT. 22.—With the exception of one cargo
of Indian corn, we have no foreign arrivals to report since
Saturday last. In our supplies of farmers' grain, there has
been a slight increase. The trade this week has been
marked by great firmness, and prices of all articles have
been well maintained. At to-day's market we hod a fair
delivery of wheat, and millers being free purchasers, no diffi-
' culty was found in obtaining an advance of Is. to 2s. per
barrel on all qualities. Malting barley supported late rates,
and grinding parcels were rather dearer. Oats in active de-
mand, and the depression of this day se'nuight was fully reco-
vered. There has been rather more inquiry fur foreign wheat
all through the week, but only a moderate business has been
done, in consequence of holders refusing to sell, except at
an advance of le. to Is. 6d. per brl. Indian corn continues
in fair request for speculation, but as yet we have hardly
any consumptive demand. Flour is worth Is. per sack above
`last week's quotations. Imports this week : Indian corn,
2,200 qrs.; flour, 400 sacks. Exports this week :—Wheat,
281 barrels; barley, 1,901; oats, 12,102; Cour, 2,701 sacks ;
oatmeal, 263 ewta.
