COMMERCIAL AND MARKETS.

MARK-LANK-(THIS DAY. )

The weather keeps moat unpropitious fur the crops;
instead of strong sunshine, there is at best but partial and
clouded Oin.pszs of the sun, with further falls of
rain ; and fears may, therefore, well be entertained as to the
fate of the harvest.
Letters from Yorkshire state that a good deal of hay is
spoiling on the ground, as ou account of the constant and.
heavy rains it could not be carted and stacked.
There are great complaint: about the miserable state of
the hop plantations front excessive wet.
The Kapp:), to this market continues very contracted of
home grown corn of all descriptions, and no Scotch or
Irish reported this week. The foreign supplies are this
week very moderate, with the exception of flour,
which is liberal of American, French, and Spanish
wheat, Russian, American, and Black Sea; a, :Fr cargo of
lxtrley from Constantinople • and oats, y Roman
and Mediterraman. The 'trade in Engl wheat to-
day is very dull at Monday's prices. Foreign
steady. Liverpool market yesterday again 'dearer
for wheat and most other descriptions of grain.
Barley dull. Oats are very firm this moraine, although
not much doing. Penns and peas unaltered, excepting
white peas, which are Is. to 2s. dearer than last week.
The flour trade was lifeless, sellers asking 425., but very
little doing at that quotation. In other descriptions there
was but little doing either. Americans are worth 295. to
30s. per barrel. French and Spanish, 475. per sack.
FLOATING CARDOEN.-At port., of call there are on este 7
cargoes of wheat, 5 maize, I barley, and lof oats. Sellers
are asking rather more money, which cheeks business.
