sales were more freely effected than of late, the turn if an,
being rather In favour of the seller. The duty on Wheat
has advaneed Is, being now at the maximum, which will
tend to stiffen markets, as few parties will be willing under
lexisting circumstances to pay that duty ; in other articles we
obseros no change. The following an the present prices:

NORWICH, July 1.-We had a short supply of Wheat at
our market to-day, and prices must be quoted full la. per
qr. higher than this day sennight, the merchants offering
scantily, and demanding higher rates. The weather the last
week his been showery, and, with the excepion of a psr:ial
heavy rain on Friday night, hes been most genial. The
growing crop of Wheat looks remarkably fine and healthy,
and the development of the ear, both in foreland size, has sue.
passed the expectations of our farmers. The Potatoes in this
locality are looking very fine and, healthy, and as far as can
be ascertained from those already dug up, we may conclude
that the tubers are not only uninjured but are finer than for
some years. Flour met a slew sale at 6d. per sack more
money. Barley, no alteration. Beaus taken off pretty
freely at 29. per qr. reduction. Peas remain the same. Oats

ing tacks and claiming one month's discount; retail, 15.10 d.

NOTTINGHAM, July 1.-The showers of rain that have
fallen in this neighbourhood, with the advance in prices of
surrounding markets, have considerable influence on the
holders of Wheat t ere, and a further advar.ce of fully Is. per
garter on all fresh samples is readily obtsinei. We have
many samples of foreign Barley offering, which may be
quoted ls, lower, and no alteration in any ethic article.

READINO, July 1.-We had again a liberal show of Wheat'
and an evident firmer tone in the trade, with prices tending
upwards ; but, although we cannot quote them higher, the
extreme rates of last week were readily paid. The trade is
spring Corn still remains in the same inanimate state, with
only a trifling retail demand, and prices barely maintained.
SAFFRON WALDEN, July 1.-Wheat, 15. per qr. dearer.
The late rain, having improved Peas, Beaus, and Oats, there
is no alteration in the price of thane articles.
SUNDERLAND, July 1.-During this week the weather
bits been mostly very wet, with strong, cold north-cast winds,
but this evening a change appears to be taking place ; it is
warmer, the wind is veering round to the north-west. The
Hay harvest is commencing,'and, with fine weather, will be
general at once. The crops of erase are very good. There
was a fair supply of Wheat from the farmers at market to-
day, and during the week ; the arrivals coastwise have been
365 quarters of Wheat, and 575 sacks of Flour. The (se-
men bad ready sale for Wheat to-day. at fully last week's
prices. The best Wheats are worth 52.. to 545.; good aver-
age parcels, 435. to 505., and inferior kinds, 445. to 465. per
qr. There is a great inquiry for good south country and tree

Ms Malting Barley dull sale. Oats in good request at 21a.
to 235. Peas are not much in demand. Flour continues is

Weastinsvea, July 1.-The season considered, together
with the very variable weather of the last few days, there
was a good market. The supplies were moderately large,
and sales briskly effected. In all descriptions of grain the
currency ran unchanged, excepting for Oats, in which value
was reduced in favour of the buyer. Dealers were purchasing
best white Wheat at 525. per qr. ; some sales made at 535. ;
good red fetched 48e. ; moderate, .05 to 485.; inferior, 40s.

Winenzsreis, July 1.-The late advance in prices are in-
terfering with free sales, to which the more recent fears as to
the showers having been somewhat injurious to the growing
crops have contributed unfavourably. Farmers are asking
higher terms, but millers are unwilling to comply; and upon
the whole to-day's transactions show little or no change.
Best Wheat made full 121. 15.. per load of 5 qrs. ; inferior
qualities from 101. to 101. se. per load. Fine samples of Bar-

WIKRECH, July 1.-During the week the weather has
been very showery, and still continues so. Our farmers are
asking high prices for Wheat to-day, and, with only a
moderate aupply,they obtain fully Is. per qr. over last
week's prices, and the trade closes firm. Oats and Beans
sell at late rates. Wheat, fine, white, Glib,. to 621b5., 495.

DUBLIN, Anus 30.-The weather during the past week
has been showery, but on the whole favourable for the grow-
ing crops. Our supplies have, however, been very limited,
and an improvement of Gd. rer barrel has been realised on
Wheat. TLe stock of Indies' Corn has been redeced to a
small compass, and the few parcels offering are held for Is.
per qr. more money. Other things are steady, at previous
prices. The following was the currency : Wheat, white,
285. to 31s. 6d. ; red, 245. to 29.. 6d. per 280Ibs. Oats, Ils.

BELFABT, June 29.-The alternate sunshine and rain
which we have bad for some weeks past has been win bene-
ficial to the growing crops ; and whilst it is admitted that in
some districts Wheat is thin, potatoes have partially failed,
and turnips have suffered severely from the early drought
and fly, all parties agree in saying that the appearance of the
crops generally never was better at the same period. In
consequence of the daily rains which we have, the
hay harvest is retarded, but the late meadows are bene-
fited. The supplies of grain from the country are small,
whilst that of Oatmeal is good. Wheat is a free sale, at a
little below last week's prices • good foreign, for mixing, is
wanted. Flour is a free sale, at former prices ; barrels,
295. to 30s. Barley : The prices of last week are nominally
unchanged, but the quantity forward is small. Oats are the
turn lower, but are in good demand. Oatmeal : The ex-
treme quotations of last week are still maintained, at the
same time the general run of Meal sold in oar market must
be quoted at 3d. lower. Indian Cern is a slow sale, at a
decline of 65. to 10s. per ton • yellow, 81. 2s. GI to 81. 10s. ;
white, t 4/. to 81, 7s. 6d.; barrel Meal, lbs. Gd. to 16e. 9d,
• CORE, June 30.-The trade during the week has been
characterised by dulness and want of activity. Indian Corn
has again given way in price, and is slow of sale at the re-
duction, and this in the face of a great paucity of foreign
arrivals. Our arrivals of home grain also are so
insignificant es to be unworthy of enumeration. Wheat,
owing to a demand for fresh samples for millers'
use, is in fair request and the turn dearer. Of
prepared Wheat the stocks are reduced to such a
Darrow compass as to make business and quotations alike
nominal Barley is unchanged in value. The law samples
of Oats arriving are taken readily at an improvement of 2(1.
to 3d. per barrel. Stocks of prepared Oats are very small,
and scarce a transaction has taken place in the article during
the week. Prime Flour meets a fair consumptive sale.at
late prices, while coarse descriptions, of which stocks in
factor.' hands are very small, are in good demand at
fall rat's. The trade in Indian Corn is dull, and prices have
I declined fully 30s. to 365. per ton from the highest point, the
