Two o'Clork.—As was to be expected, the extremely
unpromising aspect of the weather has had a de-
gree of intlut nee upon the corn market, where
wheat is quoted some lour shillings in advance. Under
the circumstances, however, and with a day cer-

. , .
tainly as cheerless as could well be imagined, such a
rise in price cannot be regarded as immoderate or
extraordinary, but, on the contrary, its comparative
unimportance testifies the little spirit of speculation
which now exists in Mark-lane, where the disasters
of last year arc still too fresh in remembrance. Con-
sols, as a sort of understood rule, should decline in
price as corn advances ; but although they opened '
rather below the closing rates of Saturday, they
subsequently recovered all the difference, and are now
a shade better than before,' .at 861 to i both
for money and time. Reduced Threes, 861 to t.
Three-and-ft-Quarter per Cents., 861 to 7.
Exchequer Bills, 335. to 375. premium. Bank Stook,
197 to 9.
We have scarcely any change in the foreign mar-
ket. Dutch Two-and-a-Ralf per Cents. are quoted
43 to 4 ; the Fours, 68 to 70. Danish C 5 to 70.
Belgian a - lower, at 66 to 9. Russian, 98 'o 100.
Spanish F.ves, Ili to 12; the Threes, 21 to

The reports from various parts of the Continent
come in t only favourable for the grain crops, but for
the potatoes also. It is stated in one of the
Belgian papers, as the result of a tour of investiga-
tion, that nothing could be finer and more promis Dg
than the appearance of the growing crops throughout
Northern Belgium, and that the potatoes were not
only abundant, but free from the disease which ap-
pears to have attacked tt,e vegetable in so many
places in this country. .

CORD'.—MARK-LANE.—It has rained almost with-
out ceasing during the right and throughout the morning,
and all harvest operations mutt have been greatly inter-
fered with, and continuance of such weather will inevitably
prove highly injurious to the crops Moot accounts, how-
ever, agree that up to Saturday evening but little damage had
actually been done. Our market was tolerably well supplied
with English Wheat by land-carriage samples from the near
counties, for which a considerable advance upon last Mon-
day's rates was asked; millers, however, wen- not disposed
to accede to the factors' demands, al.d eventually the bulk of
the Bete: supply was taken, on speculation, at an improve
of 3s. per quarter upon that day's rates. The Kentish
' Wheat was sold at about 2s. more money than last week.
Foreign Wheat, both tree and in bond, was held for 21.
advar re, with which buyers would not comply, and very'
little business was transacted. Barley in fair reque‘t, and
Is per qr. dear( T. Oats were a rather better saes, at the
extreme quotations of Monday last. Beans and Peas sup-
ported. their previous value.

Oats, ils. to 245. Beans, 40s. to 445. Peas, 425. to 445.
BEDFORD, August 12.—There was but a thin attendance
of farmers present at market today, and the nt:ow of Wheat
not extensive, but equal to the demand ; the p•ice • chute
lowe• than the last market, with very F ull Pale. Barley was
something dearer, and less doing with it. Beans, Pea., and
Oats : The trade dull, at our previous quotations. There was
new Wheat offering to-day', and the quality good : Fold at
31s. 6a.; picked old Wheat made from 265. to 33a. Beans,
241. Peas, new, 2.35. 6d. per load of tire bushel. Barley,
275. to 345. Oats, 17s. to 275. per qr.

CANTERBURY, Angina 12.—We had a very large .how of
Wheat, and a good demand for all sort.; the pr.ces of the
preceding week were fully supported. Wheat, old brown,
441. to 52. ; old white, 50.. to 68s. ; new, 50v. to 55.. Bar-
ley, old, 32.. Oats, old, 20s. Beaas. old, 30.. to 325. Feat,

CMCLISLE, August 12. —We had a large supply of
Wheat at market this morning, which sold at last week's
rates. There was no alteration in the price of Barley and
Oats, although the quantity bri.ught forward was small.
We quote price. as follows: Wheat, white, new and old,
211. 6d. to 225. Gd. ; red, new and old, 19e. Gd. to 21s. Barley,
new and old, Ils. Gd. to 12s. 6d. Oats, potato, Bs. 3d. to

CHELMSFORD, August 11.—In consequence of harvest
operations there was a thin attendance at market to-day, and
the weather being unsettled, made the sellers unwilling to
accept a decline. Good Wheat about maintained last week's
prices ; inferior sorts, Is. luwer. There were a few samples
of new Wheat at market ; the quality fair, but the condition
in moat instances poor. Spring Corn, but little offering.
White Peas and Beans rather dearer.

CULCHUTER, August 12.—About ten days age Wheat
harvest became general in this district; the weathersincc has
es n unsettled—yet, ;minim the sixth of the crop has been
stacked ; bu• much of it in such condition as not to be for the
present available. Potatoes hays become worse daily—par-
ticularly so during the last three or lour days. The Barley
crop on li,cht roils has profited by the late showery weather,
and, us • whole promises fairly; but the most forward is
not yet fit for harvest. Beets are proceeding favour-
ably to maturity. Pees yield well; hut most of them
remain abroad, sad, in consequence, arc soft and
occasionally sprouted. White Cloverseed, of which little is
produced here this season, is foul and discoloured. lied
Clovers do not promise to make much seed; the picket is too
thirds cdi the ground. Many pieces kit for set d will now be
fed off, or with suitable weather be made into stover. Trefoil
seed was well secured, and yields a good quantity, of fins
quality. A lew samples of new Wheat are to-day cn offer
but they are in general unfit for grinding r r shipping. Old
Wheat is in mederato supply at ail the markets this week,
and the price of 621 be, rid, is 635. to 54 . f.0.b.; and white
3s. to Gs. more. The stocas of Wheat and Flour in the mil-
lers' hands are unusually light, while there is a heavy con-
', sumptiee demand for the latter article, at advancing rates.

DLOVCESTSII, August 12. -With a large supply of English
Wheat at our market this day, and the weather wearing an
improved aspect, the trade was sluggish at a deeine of Is.
per qr. For foreign, holders dons, ded last week's prices,
whim millers were unwilling to pay, and but few sales were
effected. We have more inquiry for malting and grinding
Barley, and we raise our quotations 6d. per qr. Oats and
Beans go off in retail at last week's rates. Wheat, English,

GUILDFORD, August 12.-Our market to-day was scantily
supplied, and difficulty was exp. riencrd in obtaining last
week's prices, the demand being very lifeless. One new
sample realised 60F.; old, 62s ; red, 561.
MANCHE/APR, August 12.-The weather during the week
has been showery and variable; and though no decided in-
jury can yet be done, it appears by reports from the agricul-
tural diericts that little progress has yet been made in har-
vest work. The potato blight seems to be increasing in
virulence in all quarters of the kingdom. The trade during
the week has been steady at late rates, with fair demand for
current consumption ; the same has been the case at Liver-
pool and Wakefield. To-day the weather bears an improved
sigma. Our market is slow for every article, but we do not
see reason to alter the currency of our last in any
particular. Current rate,: Wheat, per bushel of
701b5., English, white, Bs. 62. to Ss. 42. ; red, 7a. 6d. to
7s. Bd.; Irish white, 71.8 d. toBs.; red, 7a. 6d. to 7s. Bd. Bar-

NEWCASTLE.ON-TTNE, August 12.-The trade during
the present week has ruled extremely firm, and a fair busi-
ness has been done in Wheat at extreme rates, whilst Flour
has commanded an advance of Is. per sack, other articles at
the same time commanoing rather more attention at rathe
over our previous currency. At our market this morning we
had a better supply of Wheat from the growets, hut, having
very little on sole either from the coast or abroad, fresh
thrashed samples were taken off pretty readily, at an advance
of Is. per qr., and where:last week's prices were accepted
for s.uth country or for,ign, a good clearance was
made. Choice Rostock was in demand, at 48s. ;
Slertin and Pomeranian at 565. to 575.; and Danish at 535.
to 555. per qr., all weighed 631bs. per bushel. Flour by
reason of it. scarcity, must be again quoted Is. dearer, extra
households being saleable at 394. 6d. to 40s. ; whites at pro-
portionate r..tes. Rye continues to be held with much
firmness, but the demand is limited. Grinding Barley in
lively request, at 275. to 295., according to quality. Malt
unaltered. In Beans and Peas rather more stirring. Oats
being in moderate supply, Fold freely, at an improveny:nt of
Is. to ts. per qr., choice Scotch being at the same time as
much dearer, such qualities being now worth 255. to '26s.
per qr., weighing 4211,e. to 43.1 e. per bushel. The best
.orcign made Is. more money where sales were eff, cted, but
in a general way they were held for a greater advance,
which had the effect of checking business. The duty on
Barley, Rye, B. ens, and Peas has severally advanced 6d.
per qr., the rates now paying being 34. per qr. respectively.

NEWPORT (IKLE OP WIGHT), August 12.-Our market
was thinly attended to-day. Wheat sold at tact week's prices;
no other grain offering.
NORWICH, August 12,-Our market was hut scantily sup-
plied with W heat to-day, and the demand fair, but pur-
chasers were unwilling to make advances on last Saturday's
prices, and not much business w.a transacted, and prices
ruled say Is. per qr. in advance. For fine household Flour
there was a lair demand, and 6.1. per sack more money was
obtained, .A. few samples °DI of new Wheat were offered
for sale, and those that were dry commanded say 505. to

Norrixofiam, August 12,-During the pact week we
base made considerable progress in the cutting of Wheat in
this neighbourhood; and the weather, upon the whole ,
being tine, we have a full show of grain brought to this day's
market, for which the extreme price of last week is scarcely
obtainable ; holders, however, are by no means free sellers,
and we note but little alteration in any article. White

is not so large as of late. There are two or three samples of
the new crop offering ; the quality good, weighing 631 b. to
641 b., and they made 525. to 5.U. per qr. There is no change
in the value of grain from last week, but late rates are full
maintained. There has been rain every day this week, and
at times it has fallen very heavy. The Potatoes get worse
every day. Wheat, new, 425. to 46a.; fine, 48s. to 60s. ;

READINO, August 12.-A fair supply of old Wheat, and
several samples of new ; the latter generally in middling con-
dition. Trade ruled dull, at barely the prices of last Satur-
day ; but the supply was nearly all disposed of. Barley is
scarce, and for feeding purposes there is more demand, at an
advance of full le. per qr. English Oats are scarce. Foreign
very plentiful, and prices well supported. New Peas are
slung at 38.. to 425. Be...ns dull, without alteration.
SAFFRON WALDEN. August 12.-Old Wheat maintains
its price. The new Wheat, of which there was a fair quan-
tity, Is. per dearer. We notice no alteration in other grain.
SUNDERLAND, AXIOM 12.-There were scarcely any far-
mers or millers in the market; pris s same as last week.
Fresh south country Wheats are inquired after. Flour in
goad demand without any change in price.
Wiens:ell, August 12.-Harvest is now gent ral in this
neighbouthood, and the Wheat crop is fairly spoken of, hut
fine weather is much needed. At to-day's market we have
a good show o' Wheat, for which (in consequence of the un-
settled state of the weather) the growers are asking higher
prices. The trade is very firm, and a good business done, at
the extreme prices of lan Saturday. Oat' and Beans in
more demand, at late prices. Present of grain to the
growers: Wheat, fine, 611 b. to 621b5., 60s. to 625. per qr. ;

Wheat at arket to-day, which sold slowly at ther under
last week'ms currency ; seine new, in hail conditio ran, realised
6s. Bd. to 6.. 10.1. per 62Ibs. Barley maintained its value,
with very little offering. Oats the tore dearer. Beans and
Peas in lair request, and rather hightv.
Yoag, August 12.-The weather during the week, until
yesterday, has hen very unsettled, with frequent heavy
showers. thaVtat nperatioas will become general on Monday
in thin district. The complaint respecting the Potatoe dis-
ease, we are sorry to sue, is much on the increase. At this
day's market a fair show of Wheat, and last week's prices
fully sustained. Wheat, white, per imp. qt, 33.. to 56s

Dentist, August 11.-I\"e have hail much rain during the
past few days, and the general molt condition of the new
grain off. rine evinces its etlect. The report of the potato
crop daily. confirms the progress of the disease, but this tens,

sequence Indian Corn is ino:h neglected for present con-
sumptian, and Is. per qr. lower. Wheat is Is. per hl ,

BELFAST, August 10.-We have had very cold heavy
rains since this (lay week, which have laid much of the crops
of grain. retarded the ripening, and more ur less injured the
crors. We regret to say that die, sae spreads in the
potato crop, and, such is the alarm, that everywhere the
farmers are raising the crop, and in eve's, possible way eon-
sumieg it, which is of itsely a serious evil, end enly second in
its consequences to the Tread of disease over the entire crop.
Wheat Las freely, at an advance of 3d., and parcels are
wanted. Flour supports its value, and is in g.sod demand.
Barley nominally as quoted last week. 0 Its: Some new
have appeared at market this week, beingjust a week earlier
than last year; the quality feeding ood, and it sold at Bs. Gil. per
cwt. Old sells freely fur purposes at former prici
Oatmeal maintain, the extreme rates of last week, but
general runs eau be had at about 3d. less money. Indian
Corn sells slowly, at 81. 70. 61. to 81. 12n. 61. per ton.

Coax, August 11.-The weather, which, during the early
part of the week, continued unbroken and unsettled, has im-
proved, and the atmosphere has become warm, r. Trade
continues exceedingly dull, nor can we look for much ins
provemcnt till w, enter fully on the hare( at, which a week
or two of rip ning weather would now usher ue into.
Coneaderable qu entities of diseased potatoes arrive daily to
continue to naive un aveeurable reports of the Wheat crop,
this market. and sell at low pricer. The consequence is a
falling off in thu demand fur Indian Corn, which
is dud of sale and reviler lower in value. The
receipts e f W heat at our market are very small, but
new Bere and Des brain to arrive in moderate quantity.
The trade in Wheat has net been large, but prices aro
firmly suppoited, and indeed exhibit an upward tendency,
stocks being reduced to a narrow compass. The samples of
Bere offering are taken readily at last week's rates Old
Oats are the turn dearer, and new Oats find buyers at late
prices. The market for prepared Oats has been quiet, and
we have had Id•le passing, but prices are firmly
supported. The demand for Flour, which in the early part
of the week was good, bar, owing to the improved eonelition
of the weather, slackened somewhat. Factors demand the.
advance established at the close of lout week, but the trade
are unwilling to enter into fresh engagements at that fi.zure.
Indian Corn meets a retail inqui y at prices somewhat lower
than those of last week. Tie top price of prime (dilate may
be quoted at B'. per ton. Meals of al' kinds are alsmat
entire'y newleeted. Wheat, wh.te, 2.8 e. 9d. to 295. per bil.
of 20 st. ; Bere, Ils. tolls. 3d.; Oat., Ils. 9(1. to 13s. 61
per brl. of 14 at. ; new, 12t. to 12a 4d.
August 12.-The arrivals of Indian Corn since
our last have been few; the sales are chi, fly to country
millers and contractors tnr outdoor relief. Toe price, how-
ever, is well kept up, and little disposition evinced to force
isles. These remarks may he applied also to Indian Meal.
Other bread-stuffs dull. Dallies Indian Corn, 91 14s. Ihrail,
&c., 91. 10e. to W. 12.. 61 American Indian Meal, 101. per
ton. Irish Flour, 425. per Pack. Am rican, 305. per barrel.
Oatmeal, 131. per ton. Potatoes, 4.1. per atone.
WATERFORD, August 12.-Though lean rain has falen
around here this week than in either of the three precediag,
the weather has been too wet to admit of more than partial har-
vest operations. Nearly the whole of our grain crops are now
ripe, and their quality will, in consequence, b: materially af-
fected by the state of the atmasphera during the next fort-
night or three wake ; this day is day and cloudy, with the
wind et east. The fate of the Potato Crop now cult's the
greatest possible interest, and the progress of the disease is
carefully watceied in all quarters. Reports front the interior
vary much as to the extent of decay among the leaves and
stalks, but are peens, uniform in re,erisenting the tuber as
Pound, or but very partially affected. In this immediate
neighbourhood the stalk generally remains sound,
though the leaf is gone, and thus far it is in an oc-
casional field only that any d s.esed tub rs can be
discovered. The worst field that has yet come under my
own observation shows but 7 per cent. o' faulty Potatoes ;
the early crops are certainly large, and the quality is ad-
mitted throughout this and the adjoieing counties to be
uniformly dry and fine; the question, therefore, of scarcity
or adequste supply of this valuable root, must be deter-
mined ny the future as far u this district is concerned. But
little busineu has Fenn transacted in our grain market this
week, and prices of 'Wheat, Oats, and Barley, remain es on
this day sennight. Flour unaltered in value. We hays
had arrival of a couple of cargoes of Indian Coin Sine.,
Monday, for which there is scarcely any demand. During
the list day or two, a few samples Of new Oats have appeared
at market; the quality is goof, but the condition *old

KIRKCALDY, August 19.—The weather during the week
has been rather of an unsettled character, every alternate day
being shots ery, although today it is •gain tine ; if it con-
tinues fine, we may have a little Barley cut in eight or ten
days. At our country markets this week we had fair sup-
plies of Wheat, which ovt a ready eale, at en sidemen of 2..
to 3s. p,r qr. Oats were iii moderate supply, and sold at In
pi r qr. more money than iaet week. Of B irley, Beans, and
Yeas there is nnly en eccasional iinp!e oftiring. Here to.
day we had a fair supply of Whea•, which svil•l freely at v.,-
they more money than lest week ; very small supplies of
Buhl and Oats, and the advance of last week firmly mobs-
teined. Wh. at, 50e. to 604. ptv qr. Barley, 31.. to 345.

CATTLE, B‘c.—SminIFIELD, Two o'Clock.—The
sups y asts is shorter, especia.ly of choice qualiti,
which are conserve-oily dearer. The very wet day is against
the trade, and nor a rather a slow sal • for middling des.
cription. There is little doubt, however, but that all wilt
be sold at fair ntes. We have a fair supply of Sheep and
Lambs; for the former trade is about the lame as of late,
but for the latter there is scarcely any demand; they are
worth no more per lb. than Sheep. Calves are lower, there
being a large number from abroad. From Holland and
Germany we have 463 Brute, 2,480 Sheep, and 182 Calves.
From Scotland, 200 Beasts.
