a little attention ; 261. has, we understand, been offered to-
day for Danish for spring delivery, and we should not be
surprised if more were eventually given. The buyers am
speculators. Cloverseed nominally unaltered, there being
nothing doing in either white or red.

KONIGSBERG. Dec. 10.—Our navigation is still fists
Wheat appears the only article in which there is &probability
of any business being done to advantage with England.
The yield of Beane, Peas, and Tares does not turn out so
abundantly so was at harvest talent ited on, and these articles
are likely to be required for home consumption. Bagley
alio be estemisely sued as • anbstitute for Potatoes, at
rates higher than could bs obtained by shipping to England.
We calculate that when supplies of Paeat increase it may,
perhaps, be possinle to close contracts to ship good red qua-
lities in spring at 405., and good mixed at 41s. to 43e. per qr.
free on board.

Maasso...tu, Dec. 16.—We hare had abundant arrivals
of Wheat from the Black Sea since the commencement of
the month, which, added to the approach of the holidays,
causes some depression in the market ; the old law, which
had been laid aside since the beginning of this year, will
again come into force after the 31st of January, 1848. The
great object, therefore, now is, to buy in u mach Wheat as
possible, en there is no doubt that the duty at first applicable
will be a h gh one, but prices of Wncat to consumption
then no doubt r:se, as the interior of Franca will in all pro-
bability require supplies. The great question will, therefore,
he to knew whetherour present importation will he sufficient
or not for the wants of the country. Fine Polish Odessa,
621 b. to 631b5., may be had at 435. per qr. on board ; 611 b.,
39, ; Marianopoli, 41e. Of Danube andßomelli the stocks
are very small, and nothing good to be bad. Shipping is not
abundant, and freights must be reckoned at 7s. per qr.

ROSTOCK, Dec. 13.—The transactions in Wheat have not
been of much interest. On the whole holders hare been
rather more tractable, and good quality may be had at pre-
sent for immedi.te shipment at 445. Gd. per qr. f. o. b. We
quote Barley 225. to 235. Peal, 345.

Srerrix, Dec. 13.—We have had a fair delivery of Wheat
from the farmers, and prices are Is. per qr. lower. We quota
fine 611 b. red Uckermark 445., and 621 h. red Pomeranian
Wheat 465. per qr. free on board next spring. Barley, 243.
to 265. per qr. free on board next spring. Other articles un-
altered in value.

12s. 6d. ; inferior, from 11e. 6d. to 111. 9d. ; everything

Bto 10 score, 12a. 6d. to 13s. Lean stock war not in great
demand.

Cownseran, Dec. 18.—As is usual at this season of the
year, very few Sheep were penned; and, although so few,
the owl*. effected were forced, ate reduction in pion of fully
Is. per bead. In lean and fresh Beasts them was scarcely
anyt.Ying doing. Several excellent fat Beasts were exhibited
upon the pavement, intended for Christmas; but fat Beef
has not been so scarce in this put of the country at this
season for many years past. It is impossible for the butchers
to be supplied at home, consequently they are driven to
Smithfield to purchase. Pigs were plentiful, and fully 3d.
per stone of 81bs. cheaper.
