logne, 1,181; Calais, 165. The corresponding period in
1847 gave, through Boulogne, 1,633 ; Calais, 364. The

DIE POTATO DIREASZ.—The Guernsey Star of
Tuesday, says :—" There tan no longer remain any doubt as
to our potato crop being again blighted. We have ourselves
seen many decided proofs of this lamentable fact, and from
various parts of the island we have received corroborative
statements. At present, however, the blight shows itself
only in the leaf and stalk of the white potato, the tuber con-
tinuing free from disease. But these, we believe, were the
symptoms which it exhibited in its early stages in 1848 and
1847, and we may therefore apprehend that t►e disease will
follow its previsus course. It is, however, satisfactory to
recollect that the blight was less injurious Let year than in
1846, and it may be hoped that this year it will be still more
limited in its range. It should also be borne in mind that
last year, notwithstanding the ravages of this disease, the
crop was not only amply sufficient for the supply of the island,
but left a very considerable quantity for exportation. This
year, we believe, the exteat of land under potato culture is
sizlv double what it was last year (owing to the growth
of 4100,7 haring been discontinued); and we have, there-
fore, additional reason for dismissing any apprehoncion of
scarcity."
How TO MAKE A BUDGET.—Reckon your expendi-
ture half a million too low; reckon your income half a
million too high : the country thus gains one million. Then
take from the income of next year another half million, and
add it to the income of this: the country will thus have
gained a million and a half. Thrn give up a half-million of
projected outlay : and you may take to yourself the credit of
basins added two millions to the national income—if you
can get it —Punch.

BANBURY, July 13.—1 n consequence of the farmers being
engaged in the bay field, this market has been scantily sup-
plied with Wheat to-day. The few tales which took place
have been at prices scarcely equal to those of last week. In
other kinds of grain no business passing. The following are
the prices :—Wheat, ss. 4d. to Is. 10d. per bushel; Barley,
30s. to 31s. per qr. ; Beans, 4s. 61. to Is per bushel; Oats,
22g. to 275. per qr.

BIRMINGHAM, July 13.-At this day's market there was
only a short supply of 'Wheat; consequently the prices of this
day se'nnight were nearly maintained, notwithstanding the
very fine weather. Barley, Gd. to la.:per qr. lower. Lower
prices were not accepted for Oats. Beans and Peu unaltered.
This week, the weather having become ab fine as possible,
little Wheat has changed hands, and prices are nominally
le. to 2.. per qr. lower. Barley only setts in retail, but can-
not be bought cheaper. Oats maintain their value, our sup-
plies being by uo means large. Our stocks of Egyptian Beans
being very much lessened, they are held on some advance,
which is not obtainable. Wheat, English, white, per bushel,
of 621b5., Gs. ed. to 6s. 104. • new, 6a. 2d. to Gs. 94. ; red,
61. 24. to 6s. 6d.; new, Gs. Id. to 6s. 6d. ; Irish, red,
65. to 61. 2d.; foreign, red, 6s. 9d. to 7s. ; white, Gs. 4d.
to 75. 6d. ; Polish Odessa, to Gs. ed. ; Danube, 6s.
In 6s. Barley, per imperial quarter, 31s. to 355.64. ; grind-,
ing, per 3921b5. 265. to 29.. 6d. Oats, English, white, per
imperial qr., 20i. to 31a. ; Welsh, black and white, per 3121 b.,

per sack of 2801 b., English, fine, 38s. to 41s. ; seconds, 345.
to 375.

BRIGHTON, July 13.—The supply of Wheat was short,
though equal to the demand ; and, as buyers declined to buy
unless at lower rates, which, however, was not generally
accepted by holders, the trade was very slack, and but little
business was transacted. All other grain remain about the
lame. White Wheat, 121. 15s. to 139. ; red, 111. 10s. to
111. 159. Barley, 30s. to 31e. Oats, 191. to 21s. Beans, 345. to
355. Peas, 38a to 38s.

BRISTOL, July 13.—The showery weather at the end of
last week, followed by 's wet gale on Sunday, has changed to
very fine sunshine, and is everything that can be desired for
our growing crops. We remain without foreign arrivals ;
but 1,460 qrs. of foreign Wheat from London, 410 sacks of
Flour, 425 qrs. of Oats, and 1,152 qrs. Barley arrived coast-
wise and from Ireland. With a dull trade, our millers gene-I
rally require an advance of Is. to 2s. per sack on Flour, say
365. to 38s. for seconds. At to day's market very few farmers
attended, being generally occupied in securing hay, which
has been much injured. English Wheat, 48s. to 51s. per
qr. No sale for Flour. Barley and Oats without demand,
and any business done was of a retail character, with prices
in favour of the purchaser.
- -

Day IZES, July 13.—We had to-day a very short supply of
Wheat, for which the sellers asked higher prices, but not
being able to obtain any advance they submitted to last
week's rates, at which a good clearance was made. In Bar-
ley nothing doing. Beane were in short supply and more in
demand. In Oats and Peas there was no alteration. Prices:
Wheat, white, per qr., 495. to 525.; hest red, 475. to 61e.;
middling, 42a. to 465. ; inferior, 40s. to 425. Barley, 265.
to 38s. Oats, 21e. to 26e. Beane, old, 425. to 46e. ; new,
40e. to 465. Peas, 363. to 465. Flour, fine, per sack, 38e.
to 425.; seconds, 345. to 37e.

16s. to 20e. Beans, 353. to 41s. per qr.

MANNINCTRI3I3, July 13.—The settled appearance of the
weather has caused a very dull market to-day for Wheat
last week's prices are not easily made. Beans, Peas, and all
spring corn have a downward tendency, with very little busi-
ness doing.

-- - -
MARKET RASEN, July 11.—The Wheattrade may be con-
sidered a little on the decline from last quotations, while
Barley, Oats, and Beans remain stationary.
- - - - -

MELTON blownnav, July 11.—We have had a good sup-
ply of Wheat offering at this market to-day, at full 11. per
qr. lower than last week, with very little doing in other sorts
of Corn, at about the tame rates. Wheat, 48s. to 60s. Bar-
ley, 30s. to 335. Oats, 245. to 271- Beans, 40s. to 425. per

Malt, 688. to 60s. per qr.
Mewnrwr, July 13.-A continuation of fine seasonable
weather, and a large supply of Wheat, led to a reduction
of ;24. per qr. on that article. Barley continues the same.
Oats, Beene, and Peas remain steady.
PLYMOUTH, July 13.-The weather continues very fine,
and causes the trade in corn to be dull. Prices at this
morning's market were unaltered, but very little business
done.

slow, end ls. per load cheaper. A email show of Trefoil
seed; buyers careless; quality not fine; price, 13s. to 17s.

not numerous, the rein effected for Wheat being upon the
terms of last week ; for Bailey at a decline in inferior
