READING, Acocar 25. —Tho weather this morning, so
far from improving, was rather wow, the rain descending
almost continuously. The supply of wheat was moderate,
and the consequences of such an unfavourable harvest sea-
son, and the rule in all other market*, caused hohlers, of
whom the attendance was limited, to commence by saki,
several shillings advance, as much as 75e. being demanded
for the best quality. Buyers refusing to accede to these
demands, scarcely a sale was effected for some time. As
the morning proceeded, rather more business was trans-
acted at irregular rates. In one instance we know of ds.
advance on Lot week being given, but we should call the
general average about 4s. dearer, and a slow trade. In
barley, oats, beans, and peas, the trade was of a retail de-
scription. Wheat, 40a, to 645. ; barley. Ms. to 45s ; oats,
Ids. to T. 51. ; beans, 42a. to 50s. ; peas, Ma to 46e.
