account of the state of the growing crop have strengthen.'

rather improved, an advance of id. per lb. has been obtained
upon the good ordinary and middling qualities of American,

COILN. —CHELMSFORD, 7.—The weather is now al!
that can be desired for harvest operations, consequentl)
there was a thin attendance at market to-day. A few
samples of new wheat were shown, but so couch out of now
dition as to render it almost unsaleable, except to be kilo.

LINCOLN, SEPT. 7.—We have had a very small supply of
wheat, but still more than equal to the demand, which ha%
been of the merest retail character to suit immediate wants,
In the business done prices gave way 2s. to 3s. per

WAKEFIELD, SEPT. 7.—The tepid progress the harvest it

business passing has been almost of a nominal character,
and prices irregular; compared with this day se'nuight

closes without the least animation, notwithstanding tut
the sun is almost invisible, and the barometer inclined to

THE TIMBER TRADE.—Messrs. A. F. and D. Mackay.
in their timber circular, just issued, remark that the tr.oie
in timber participates in a marked degree in the vicissitude.
which beast other branches of commerce. Dependent an it
10, in a great measure, on the activity which prevails among
the manufacturing population, the trade in wood ought to
be brisk ; and no undoubtedly it would be were the appen.
heneions regarding the harvest removed. As it is, the fear
of having to import a large quantity of corn, which must be
paid for in specie, exercises an adverse influeoce on all pro-
gectivearrangernenta which require a large outlay of money.
This is particularly felt with respect to building and con
sequent v it interfere* to a great extent with the demand
for woos. Were this otherwise, there is every reason to
believe that a larger consumptive business in timber
would have been experienced before this time ; and as the
reports from the agricultural districts all over the country
represent the probable yield as little below the average, and
state that. notwithstanding the generally had weather, the
quality will be quite equal to an avenge, there appear
pod reason to hope that matters will turn out better than
has for some time past been anticipated.
