GLOUCESTER, DEC. 26.-During the week, the ad-
vance of Saturday las thee been well maintained, and holders
oflWhest act with great cautiot. There is a. continued de-
mand for all low qualities, for shipment to Ireland. Beans,
Peas, Flour, and Meal, are also finding buyers for Irish ac-
count, and the prices of all spring Corn are in consequence
maintained with great firmness. At our market this day the
attendance was not large. English Wheat was held for 2s.
per quarter advance, and the quantity of Foreign on offer
being much reduced, was held fur rather more money
than last week. For Beans and Barley, ls. to 25.,
and for Oats, Is. per quarter wore money is de-
manded. The frost has returned with its form r severity.

GUILDFORD, DEC. 26.—There was a large market
of Wheat, with scarcely any demand. What sales were
made were at a reduction of 2s. to 3s. per qr. front the ex-
treme rates of last week, but buyers were altogether unwillng
to purchase even at this reduction. The be,t price realised
was 20/. Barley was not so plentiful, and the trade had an
upward tendency, the prices being 2s. per or, higher ; top,
495. Oats, 255. to 20s. Beans, 40s. to 455. Peas, 445.
to 475.

MASCIIESTIE, DEC. 26.-At our market to-day,
there is more diopeeition for business on the part of hovel*,
who, however, amply magjAnardllegir eat pretreat rates;
Lai the fact is, that so lowldat mar 'stooks hfte, that there is
comparatively nothing in the.4ay of 6delror manufactured
stuff to meet extmsive demand, and as the late foreign
arrivals go almost wholly into bond, the stocks avaiable
for consumption are httle, if at all increased. We
make no particular alteration in our quotations, but
the general tendency of prices is upwards. Wheat,
per bushel of 7111b5., English, white, 9s. 9d. to lls. ;

NEWCASTLE-ON-TYNE, DEC. 26.-The weather has
again assumed a wintry character. On Thursday ever.ing
as well as yesterday a good deal of snow fell, since which it
has been extremely frosty. This severe weather, erupted
with the great wants of Ireland and Scotland, is calculated
to sustain present prices, of all grain, should supplies not prove
more liberal than hitherto we may even look for an advance
occurring, the extent of which will be regulated by the dis-
position manifested to sell or otherwise. At our market
this morning we hail a fair show of Wheat from the
growers, and the arrivals coastwise are also pretty liberal,
notwithstanding which, however, fresh thrashed samples
were taken off readily at an adveucc of Is. to 2a. per quarto,
whilst at the same time a fair business was done in south
country qualities as well as free foreign at a similar im-
provement. During the week our market has been visited
by buyers from Scotland, who purchised a few hundred
quarters of foreign at 66e. for red, and 688. for Dantric, at
which rate the buyers would have gone on, but holders were
not generally willing to sell freely, from an impression that
even higher terms will be acquired shortly for such qualities.
For Flour there has been a steady though not beak inquiry
at 50s. for choice households, and 525. for whites. Rye is
much wateed, and must again be quoted 2s. higher. Upon
malting Barley we raise our quotations Is. to 2e. per qr., but
our brewers pay the advance with great reluctance. For
grinding descriptions our quotations may be deemed quite
nominal, there being nothing of this sort offering upon our
market. Malt unchanged. Both Beans and Peas are attract-
ing more attention, and the latter article may be written Is.
to 2s. per qr. dearer. Notwithstanding the supply
of Oats from the country was large, sales were
quickly effected at an advance of fully Is. per qr.

Nnitwicit, Dec. 26.-The weather, during the last
few days, has been more favourable, and our rivers are now
free from ice, therefore there has been a good delivery of
Corn, &c. to the ships side at Yarmouth. The quantity of
Wheat from the farmers on sale to-day is good, but there is
not so much as usual by the rail, and the demand is very
lively at rather higher prices than last week, especially for
choice lots of white and red. Barley is the turndearcr again.
Oat-, Peas, and Beans are also a shade higher in price, with
a good demand. Flour the same as last week, and more
iluing in this article. Free on board at Yarmouth. Prices

READING, Dec. 26.-We had a fair supply of
Wheat, which sold at the extreme currency of last week.
Barley very short in supply, and full 2+. per qr. dearer. The
same also applies to Oats. Beans and Peas of an upward
tendency.
St: NDERIAN 11, DEC. 26.-The weather continues
intensely severe, and the farmers, having nothing to do but
to thrash, have been tempted by recent high prices to do so
freely ; and there was a plentiful supply of Wheat at market
to-day, which was sold freely at but week's rates. There
have been no arrivals from the coast. Fine South Country
Wheats and good foreign are saleable at improved rates.
The best prices to-day far country Wheat, 70s. to 725., and
for good average samples, 645. to 665.; old Wheats obtain
50s. to 565. The supply of Oats is pretty regular, and the de-
mand free, at 245. to 30a. Good malting Barley in better
demand, at 40s. to 465. Beans and Peas in moderate request.
The supply of Flour is very abundant, and prices remain the
same ; best South Country is worth 494. to 60a., and Home-
made, 455. to 475. per sack. Averages for the past week/ :-
Wheat, 361 qrs., at 66e. Ild.; Oats, 12 gra, at 255. Ild.; and
Beans, 12 qrs., at 455. per qr.
WARMINSTER, DEC. 26.-A very short supply of
Barley, which met a ready sale at an advance of Is. per qr,
over last week. Wheat, 46+. to GBs. Barley, 355. to 4&.
Beans, 445. to 50s. Oats, 265. to 30s.
WINCHESTER, DEC. 26.-The trade was dull, as the
sellers were firm in demanding a further advance of from
10s. to 15s. per load for Wheat., which the purchasers were
unwilling to tocede to ; the business done was, therefore, but
small in comparison with other weeks. Some samples of
best Wheats may be quoted as having ,old at 2a. per qr. ad-
vance, yet much remained unsold. The best terms we
observed was, 171. 10s. per load for white Wheats; at from
15/. to 161. red. Good heavy Barleys were much in request,
and very scarce: two or three best samples realised 50s. per
qr.; and other descriptions may be stated 2s. per qr. higher.
In Oats there was a brisk demand at an advance of from Is.
to 2s. per qr. over last Saturday's quotations. Beans and
Peas, the few sold were at a further rise of 2s. per qr. Rye
was also 2s. per qr. dearer. Tares as last week. Ittslian
Maize, both white and red, 2s. per qr. higher. Best Flour is
up to 535. to 545. ; and seconds, 47a. to 49:. per bag. Barley

WISBECII, DEC. 26.-We are fair'; supplied with
Wheat at this day's market, and moderately of other grain.
Wheat meets a good demand, to. 18. to 2s. per. qr. over last
week's prices. Oats It., and Beans Is. to 25., per qr. dearer.
Wheat, old, 58e. to 635. per qr. ; new, Gds. to 70s. • extra,
725. Oats, 15d. to 16d. per stone. Beans ' 475. to 50s.
'ORCESTER, DEC. 26.-We had very few far-
mere in our market to-day. What little business has been
transacted was nominally as last week. In consequence of
the severe frosts the inland navigation is again stopped, and,
until an alteration takes place in the weather, the transit of
grain hence to Birmingham and the district of South Staf-
fordshire will be comparatively but trifling.
YORK, DEC. 26.-We have a small show of Wheat
at market this day ; and, from the extreme prices Baked by
our farmers, little business has been done. We quote Wheat
