at our Christmas market to-day, and also a good attendas,e
of buyers; and although prime were generally somesLa
higher, these was a large quantity of all sorts ch.sug,d
hands. Several farmers and holders seemed to have on no.
premion that a considerable advance on the present priey
must soon follow, and consequently were not inclined to
sell ; this impression seems gown'. Finest samples were
from L. to 2a. per quarter higher ; the mune may be said of

companied by a keen northerly wind. Last night there
was a heavy fall of snow, and the aspect of the country is
very isinterly. The dry weather has very much improved
the quality of the wheat, most of that brought to market
being dry and in good condition. There was a liberal supply
of wheat placed on the stands at this Corn-exchange, and a
better tone was perceptible, all description of grain having
an upward tendency. In &bloat all articles of grain a
steady business was transacted at prime slightly in advance
of those of the last market. Best samples of both red and
white brought an advance of Is. to 2a. per quarter, and is
secor.dary and inferior lota there was no change. There sr,,,
a fair consumptive inquiry for fore'iga, which was also in.
proved in value. The demand for barley for malting and
=porpoise was steady, and best kinds were slightly
ut other qualities were neglected. The supply of
oats was small, but prime samples brought 6d. per sack
more mosey. There was no alteration to beans and peas,
the rime of which were well supported. Millen acting so
the nowt advance in the markets, have raised the price of
Boer Is. per sack.
