CORN.
BIRMINGHAM, DEC. 3.-During the early part of
the past month, there was a depression in our \%heat mar-
ket of from 2s. to 3a. per quarter ; but there has been a de-
mand quite equal to the supply: and latterly this depression
has been fully recovered, and our prices have again reached
about the highest point they have attained since harvest;
while from the continued and almost unprecedented demand
for Flour, we think the stocks in the hands of our millers
must be materially reduced, as compared with what they
were at the end of October. as they have for some time past
bought with great caution, under an impression that we
might have increased supplies and somewhat lower prices
during the pre cut month. But whatever these supplies
may be, there is now a prevailing belief that the
demand will prove more than equal to them. There have
been a number of shipments from the east coast and London
to the north of France, not only of foreign under bond, but
of English, and the drain upon Wheat in the Black Sea, and
the Danube, for the southern provinces of that country, as
well as for several of the Mediterranean Italian ports, say
Genoa, Leghorn, &c., where the prices of Wheat are about
the same as in England, is as great as ever ; while the ship-
ments from the northern to the southern ports of Spain, at
high prices at this early period of the year, indicates a defi-
ciency in that quarter also, which will have to be met before
another harvest, by imports from other counties. In the
southern provinces of Portugal there is likewise a great
deficiency, and by the last quotations, barrel Flour, the
free importation of which is now permitted by the
government, would nett 40s. to 45e. per 1961h5., free on
board. From the United States we may expect considerable
supplies, both of Wheat and Flour, during this month ; but
it is doubtful whether the whole of the arrivals from that
country, before the spring of the coming year, will be equal
to the deficiency of the imports from Ireland into Liverpool
alone since last harvest, as compared with the corresponding
period iu 1845 ; and it is questionable whether most of the
spring supplies of Wheat and Flour, from the Western
States, will not be required for the consumption of the eastern
cities of the Union. The prices in the Baltic continue rein-
tivey high, yet purchases are from time to time made on
French, Dutch, and Belgian account, and the navigation of
their rivers will now shortly be closed fur several months.
Uuder these circumstances, the question as to whether we
shall have a further advance in Wheat shortly, is entirely de-
pendent upon the disposition of our farmers freely to bring
their Wheat to market, and there is an increasing belief they
will not do so without higher prices, as this grain is still
relatively low, compared with other kinds of corn, and our
millers generally increase their stocks about the end of the
year. -English white Wheat sells at 88. to 85. 6(1.; red,
7s. 4(1. to 7s. lid., per 621 b., at Birmingham; Danteic,
7s. 9d. to Se. 3d. ; Polish, 7s. 3d. to 7s. 9d. ; Danube, 6s. 3d.
to 7s. 3d. ; hard, 6s. 641. to 7s. ; all per 601 b. at Gloucester.
Barley of all descriptions, though in rather short supply,
gave way in price 2s. to 3s. per quarter the early part of the
past month ; but has been more in request latterly, with
a tendency upwards in value ; and we expect the present
rates will be maintained if not exceeded through the
winter. Grinding qualities are very scarce, and worth 375.
to 395. per 392 lbs. Grinding Pease have maintained their
price, but are not so much sought for as at the commence-
ment of the month. They sell at 17s. to ISa. per 196 lbs. at
Gloucester. White Boilers are become difficult to dispose
of, but the fine yellow which have appeared found buyers at
almost 60e. per quarter. Good blue, warranted to break
well, would sell at 85. to 8.. Cal. per bushel. Grey boilers
have declined 3.. to 4s. per quarter, say from 5.55. to 565., to
525. per quarter. The transactions in Oats have been quite
limited, and the price barely maintained, though the supply
from Ireland continues small. The high price, compared with
bay, has very much lessened the consumption with us, and for
the next two or three months the principal supply from our
farmers takes place ; and although they are further advanc-
ing in Ireland, we see little present prospect of higher rates
with us. Enniscoethy and Limerick are • slow sale at 295.
to 30s. per 312 lb. at Gloucester ; Wexford, 275. to 285.;
black, 275. to 275. ed. The quantity of old Beans brought
to market by the farmers has been much larger than was
expected, and, in consequence, our currency for all descrip-
tions has given way Is. to 25. per quarter, with a slow sale.
The Egyptians at Gloucester are nearly off, at 16s. Gd. to
17s. per 196 lb., but some floating cargoes are near at
hand. We have had no arrival of Indian Corn during the
month ; it continues to be in great demand for Ireland, and
is again advancing. Some quantity of Tares have been dis-
posed of at about 16s. per 'l96lbe. for both old and new
foreign for feeding purposes.
is in less in demand, and
is taken slowly at 15e. 6d. per 1961 be. at Gloucester. There
are no Lentils remaining in importers' hands. Three or four
cargoes of black Wheat have arrived from France, and are
selling at about 345. per imperial quarter. -From Messrs.
Sturges Monthly Calendar.
BASINGSTOKE, DEC. 2--The samples shown were
many of them of very superior description, and there
was a fair business done, particularly with the best
heavy white Wheats. which sold at at least ss. per load, or
Is. per quarter higher than similar qualities made last
Wednesday. Best red and mixed sold also well, but not at
an advance ; inferior samples were slack of sale. Flour as
last week. Barley not so brisk; there being more samples
of malting quality offered than formerly ; some a little dis-
coloured, yet of full weight, from 10 score 14Ibs. to 10 score
181bs., made from 445. to 48s. per quarter ; good grinding,
from 10 score to 10 score Ms., from 40s. to 425. ; inferior
samples could be bought at prices varying between 325. and
365. Barley-meal, at 21s. to 225. per bag, and beet Malt. at
from Bs. Gd, to 9s. per bushel. The Oat trade was rather
dull ; beet Poland making 30s. ; good potato (little bleached,
though sweet), at 265. to 28s. • black, from 245. to 265., and
other lighter samples, from 225. to 245. per qr. Tares are
from ss. to 6s. per bushel. Beans were offered at a reduc-
tion of from la. to 2s. per quarter.
DEDDINGTON, DEC. 1.-Prime samples were
sought after, and fully realised former rates. New Wheat,
48s. to 605.; old, 48s. to 565. Barley, 36e. to 405. Old Oats,
28s. to 32a.; new, 21e. to 28e. Old Beans, 40s. to 445. ;
new, 38s. to 445. White Peas, 441. to 48e. Hog Peas, 365.
to 40s. Vetches, 365. to 40e. per quarter.
LEIGHTON BUZZARD, DEC. 1.-We had rather a
short supply of Wheat at this day's market, which sold at
above the rates of this day week. Barley dull, but unaltered
in value. Bears in good supply and the turn lever. Pcse
waintain their price. Wheat, per load of 5 barrels, 355. to
