WATRILFORD, Dec. 18.-The tempos uous state of the
weather has materially reduced our country supplies of grain
this week, and the arrivals from abroad have been small also.
We have experienced a good demand for Wheat, and prices
bare advanced fully h. per barrel during the week. Oats
and Barley are unaltered in value. The trade in Indian
Corn
(Quad been large, but the best Black Sea qualities
have !toyer, at an improvement of le. to Is. 3d. per
barrol on the quotations of Saturday last. Superfine Flour
is in good request at lull prices, but interior sorts are the
turn cheaper. Indian Meal *ells slowly, without change in
prices. The trade, on the whole, is more healthy than of
Isto. Present prices of Orals, Flour, Wheat, undried,

IVOOL.—LONDON.—Both colonist and foreign

to be done till the not, year. Arrivals are 1,510 bales co-
lonial and 190 foreign. There is very little doing in English,
and prices generally, where business is done, are lower.

there is still a great want of confidence. Down Moneta,

guid lute, the holders finding no staplers willing to purchase
at any price.
CATTLE, It.-8 31 IT nYIEL D, Two o'
The number of Beasts, though not large, is quite adequate
to the demand, moat of the butchers naming by this time
completed their purchases for Christmas. Indeed, it is not
usual to have a large supply either of Besets or Sheep for
the market immediately preceding Christmas-day, so that
we have to-day quite a sufficient quantity of both. The
average quality, however, of the Beasts is not first-rate, and I
of Sheep eery middling ; conmequently the best descriptions
are making about the same aof late. Second-rate Beasts and
Ewes and middling Sheep are very diffitult to be disposed of,
and several of the.former remain unsold. Calves are goatee,
and art readily sold, at Friday's quotations. Trade is ra-
ther better for Pigs. From Holland we have 219 Beuts,
1,450 Sheep, and 63 Calved. From Scotland, 100 Beasts.
