has changed hands. Barley nominally Is. to 2.5. per qr.
bleher. We have rather more doing in Oats and Beans,
but at no improvement in price. Wheat : English, white,

BISHOPS SToRTPORD, APRIL 21.—At the market this day
Wisest sold from 38s. to 86s. Barley, 435. to 535.

BRISTOL, Aran. 22.-Excepting the backwardness of the
season, everything has been moat favourable for agriculture.
With a fair attendance at to-day's market farmers advanced
their prices far Wheat 4s. to G/. per qr. ; red sold at 10s.
per imperial bushel; white, 10s. 6J.: and the few holders of
our much-reduced stock of foreign Wheat and Fleur ask
per qr , and 3t. per barrel, higher than last week's prices.
Some old Odessa sold at 771., up to 8.38. and 84s. for fine
Polish. Barrel Flour, best, American, 425. to 445.; Canada,
40s. to 435. English, 60r. to 635., for prime seconds. No
arrivals from Ireland. A cargo of barrel Flour exported to
France. Only one foreign arrival this week. 1,320 qrs.
Baler, from Danish islands, sold retail at 50s. per qr., ex-
snip.. The malting season is nearly over ; therefore there
is not so much demand for Barley, but prices have advanced
slightly. We quote 41s. to 545., as in quality. Oats, also
I becoming scarce, are held for more money ; feed, per qr., 28s.
to 335. Potato, 345. to 39a. Beans, 525. to 565.
Devious, Arum 22.-We had a good supply of Wheat,
for which the farmers asked • very considemble advance in
price, to which the millers were unwilling to concede. This
had the effect of checking business ; but ultimately a good
clearance was made, at, generally, from 4s toss. per quarter
above last week's prices. In some instances a much greater
advance was obtained. Barley was in small supply, and met
a very brisk sale, at from Is. to U. per qr. above Let week's
prime. The supply of Osta. Beans, and Peas was good, and
the trade dull. In Tares there was but little doing; prices
from 7s. 6d. to 9s. 6d. per bushel. Wheat, per quarter,
