IHE CORN TRADE.

The subjoined remarks on the Corn Trade ere ex-
tracted from the weekly circular of Mr. George Dorn-
bitacb, dated Wednesday evening: . _ _

Within the lut eight days the political horizon reflected
many changes, each affectiog in some degree the corn mar-
ket, though the eastern question is no longer looked upon
as of paramount imputance with reference is corn supplies.
The scarcity of vessels and the concomitant high freights an
thought much more relevant.

The weather up to last Friday (29th October) was as bad
as could be et seed time ; for three weeks put, with the
exception of a few fine days, the clouds hid the sun, clothed
the atmosphere in gloomineu, and poured over the earth
torrents of rain, accompanied sometimes by lightning and
thunder, flooding the lowlands in many parts, bringing field
work to a complete stead still, preventing sowing and darner
lug the still outstanding crops in backward districts ; with a
southerly wind the temperature of the air continues extraor-
dinarily mild for the eamem. Such was the character of the
weather all over the United Kingdom, and worst in Scotland.
Daring the last few days the weather has been brightening
up, and laymen are busy to get the seed in the ground
with all possible despatch, tearing a return of wet weather.
The British markets have been but irregularly supplied
with howe grown urn ; in some places the supplies ap-
peued large, in others small; on the whole moderate. The
arrivals from abroad also continue of little importing*, the
largest portion is from the north of Europe ; very little
comparatively from the south ; only eleven cargoes within
the last eight days.
Under the influence of the very unfavourable weather
most of the country markets held within the last eight days
reported an advance on the corn priors of lut week, which
in some instances reached for wheat N. per qr. Since the
return of fine weather, the apprehensions caused by the
emus of rain have faded away, and the markets have gene-
rally exhibited a quiet, though firm tone. There is a con-
siderable demand for peed wheat, with which a much
larger Dube, a:mead than last year is intended to be
sown.
Abroad.—ln the Baltic corn prices keep high ; old steel,
are nearly cleared off, the new corn will not be tit for ship.
meat till the spring. In France the sowing of wheat has
been favoured by fine weather ; farmers supply the markets
sparingly, and prices keep up. Antwerp reports an advance
et 2a. to 3s. Holland steady. Italy advises a new advance.
At Odessa the price of wheat has receded under the war-
panic M. to M. per qr. from the highest point ; vessels are
now pouring in in shoal; crowding the port, and the last
arrived have to anchor out in the bay—and although 29,000
qrs. of core are daily being shipped, stocks continue sup-
plied from the interior, and store.room is as scare as ever.
At Galati the trade iv dull—granaries full to excess—money
eearce—lew Tweets appear. The American corn markets
