of last year.
The London avenges were 56e. 41. on 2,870 qrs.
The arrivals of wheat and flour in the principal ports of
Great Britain for the week ending September 28 were equal

Monday's wheat market in London opened on • lam
foreign and small home supply. There was very little
showing from Fist and Kent during the morning, and that
mostly new, poor in both quality and condition. The few
new parcels that were really dry and good, as well as old,
obtained about 3s. per qr. more money ; but the inferior
new was difficult to quit at any advance. There was • fair
businow done in red foreign, both Russian and Baltic quali-
ties, at 3e. per qr. improvement ; but white, even the fined
Dantsic, was only 2s. per qr. higher. Cargoes afloat were •
ready sale at le. advance. On Wednesday there were
550 qrs. per coed, with 7,390 qrs. foreign. The continuance
of fine weather made • quiet market ; but the small show
of good samples enabled factor, to pine them on former
terms, damp lots still hanging on hand. The foreign trade
was steady, at firm prices, especially for red qualities.

trade was against forcing, and buyer, were more re-
served, in consequence of favourable weather.
The supply of flour on tiondny was altogether large,
about half being foreign. Norfolk' were fully Is. per seek
higher, some holding out for Is. per sack more. American
and French, though generally held higher, only sold in select
lambi at any improvement. Notwithstanding the rise in
wheat, town millers did not rain their top quotation Oa

trade closed very firm on Friday.
The seed trade during the week bad very little altered.
Cloverseed, both red and white, reniatened its value ; and
trefoil was more decidedly improved, the new French crop
being complained of. Fine otharyseed maintained its price,
but was a slow sale. New winter tares remained mares and

rather gave way, mach being very damp, and unfit for use
without the kiln. Other seed much as on the previous
week.

The country markets this week have been settling into
a calmer state under the fine weather, scarcely anewer-

for old wheat, but the value of dry new was improved,
there being so little. It wee the meal at Newcastle,
where much yet remains to be cut. Boston, Spalding,
Wolverhampton, and Stockton-on-Tees were only lc per

Glouoester, and Bristol were la. to 2s. per qr. dearer.
Leeds, Alton% St Ives, Lynti, and Newark, quoted the ad-
