BRISTOL, Nov. 19.-The continuance of favourable
weather employing the farmers, there has been a short atten-
dance at our market, and a general disinclination to stock
has depressed prices this week. Wheat is dull, and, excepting
the best samples, which are held more firmly, may be quoted
Is. to 2s. lower. The same may be said of ffarley ; grinding
samples are offered at Is. per quarter decline. The sale of
Oats is ofa retail character, and Is. per quarter decline must
be submitted to, in the clearance of cargoes, or large lot,.
Beans and Peas sold with difficulty at Is. to 2s. per quarter
decline, and millers have dropped the price of flour Is. to 21.
per sack. Meanwhile the imports have been inconsiderable,
and there is no excessive supply of farmers' grain. At to-
day's market there was some business done at full prices, and
none would sell English or foreign Wheat, or good malting
Barley at lower rates. Oats also may be considered as dear
as this day se'nnight.
DEVIZES, Nov. 19.-We had only a moderate sup-
ply of Wheat, which sold freely, at Is. a quarter above last
week's prices. Barley was in fair supply, and syld freely at
previous rates. The supply of Oats was large, and the trade
dull. Beans were in large supply and met a good sale. In
Peas little doing, and no alteration in prices. Wheat, best
white, 625. to 68s. ' • red, 545. to 665. ; inferior do., 38s. to
481. Barley, 30s. to 455. Oats, 245. to 31s. Beans, new,
425. to 50s. Peas, 40s. to 445.

NEW BURY, Nov. 19.-We continue liberally sup-
plied with Wheat, which met an exceedingly dull sale,
though prices cannot be quoted lower. Our supply of Burley
was also large, and as our insisters are not generally at work,
the trade ruled dull at a decline of Is. per qr. Oats, Beans,
and Peas hut little doing. Averages to the 14th November,
1846:-518 quarters of Wheat, at 63a.; 870 quarters of
Barley, at 44a. 3d. ; 117 quarters of Oats, 23a. 3d.
BELFAST, Nov. 17.-Wheat is still coming pretty
freely to market, and prices keep steady : seed, 13s. ; prime
red and white may be quoted at Ils. to 12s. od. per cwt. as
in quality. Oats, prices keep stationary, the supply mode-
rate. Potato, of first quality, 9s. to 10s ; and Poland, 8,6 d.
to 9s. 6d. per cwt. Oatmeal; the demand continues brisk ;
the market last week was largely supplied. We cannot
notice any change in price-prime may be quoted at 18s.;
and middling to good quelity, 16a. Gd. to 17s. 6d. per cwt.
Indian Corn, yellow, 131. 15s ; white, 141. per ton. Indian
Meal, yellow, 14s. 9d. ; white, 15s. per cwt. Barley con-
tinues in good request, and has further advanced, our quo-
tations being Its. 6d. to 9s. 6d. per cwt. Rye is much in-
quired for the supply scanty; 10s.r cwt. is now paid.
American Flour; the weighty arrivals that of late have taken
place, and the previous stock being pretty large, prices in
consequence must be Quoted a little lower, and sales are now
making at 35e. to 365. 6d. per barrel, as in quality.
LIMERICK, Nov. 18.-A miserably small market of
Wheat to-day, and an advance of full Id. per stone over last
market rates, the price paying being Is. 9d. to Is. Hid. per
stone as in quality. Oats are also dearer, and in very short
supply, Is. 2d. to Is. 3d. per stone being the currency. There
was not a sufficient market of Wheat in to-day to test price ;
not over 300 barrels. Millers all very bare and hungry, but
there was no room to operate, and, with • larger market,
prices would certainly have been higher. Weather continues
generally line and open.
WATERFORD, N0v.18.-Since Saturday, our market
has ruled dull for almost every article in the trade. Elearealy
any sales of either Flour or grain have been effected owing
to the disinclination of holders to part with their stocks at
present rates. Two small cargoes of Maize have arrived
during the last few days, and go steadily into consumption
at full prices.
EDINBURGH, Nov. 18.-There was but a moderate
supply of Wheat from the growers at this morning's market,
which met a very dull sale at a decline of la. per qr. The
demand for free foreign and English continues extremely
limited, although offering to-day again on easier terms.
Malting Barley is quite as dear, but grinding is le. per qr.
lower. The supply of Oats being large there was not so
much disposition to purchase, and to effect a clearance a
decline of Is. per qr. had, in some cases, to be submitted to.
The sale for white Peas is very limited, at a further reduction
of Is. per qr. Beans the turn cheaper. Wheat, per qr.,
top, 725. ' • average, 695. Id. Barley, per qr., top, 425.;
aye:wire, 375. Bd. Oats, per qr., 365. Bd.; average,
295. 10d. Beans, per qr., top, Ms. ; average, 50s. sd.
Guscow, Nov. 18.-There was a firmer Wheat
trade to-day, and a larger business was done in Barley.
Very few Oats offering. The following are present quota-
tions :-Wheat, per 240 lb., English old, 31s. to 335. ;Scotch,
old, 295. to 31s. ; Irish, 295. to 30s. • Foreign, 295. to 34a.

to 275. ; Scotch, 255. to 265. Peas, per 280 lb., 275. to 22‘
Oatmeal, per boll of 140 lbs., 235. to 275. Flour, per sack al
280 lb., fine, 60s. to 535. ; extra fine, 655.
BRUSSELS, Nov. 18.-The average price of Wheat
for this week ending Nov. 14, was 25f. Me., and of Rye,
191. 90c. Compared with the preceding week there quo-
tations show an increase of 28 centimes per hectolitre in the
former, and of 13c. on the latter. The debate on the reply
to the King's speech still continues in the Chamber of
Repreeentatives.-Brussels Correspondent.
