part of the week, whisk had is a certain extent prevented

wasat and eats hat rather receded at the principal team.
8 me arrivals of ladies corn had taken place at Cove, but a
coatinard speculative demand for the article bad prevented
its vale. mmiag.
Though good supplies have bees brought forward at most
of the markets is the egrienharal districts, the arrivals of
wheat commends into Loader have been of the same mode-
rate character this week as before ; nee has my immense
taken plies I. the quantity exhibited at Mark-lam by land-
carriage samples from the neighbouring counties. Trifling,
however, as lime boon the supplies, they hamproved quite
equal to the demand, and considitabe d.lmeulty has been
experienced is making sales at hat Monday's reduced rates.
On Wednesday there was absolutely nothiag doing, and
quotations were perfectly malaise!. Later is the week the
dallies rather increased thee diminished ; bat, in the ab-
sinthe of beams of impsnanee, prices remained about the
lame ea Friday se prevy ; to have succeeded, however,
in pleetag the few lots on the Heat seeds, it would hare
bees neeneary to have takes less money.
Only about 2,000 qn. of wheat have strived from abroad
during the week ending this (Saturday) evesieg, and 'ap-
plies are likely to be en a emaparatively limited scale for
some time to some. This seems, however, to make no ire-
prosaism on our maim, who have lately shown much more is-
liastioa to dewier than to add to their stocks. The comatry
demand for foreign wheat has throughout the week been of
a strictly retail she/meter, and the local inquiry hoeing been
exceedingly slow, it hr been quite impossible to effect sales
to any extent. Heiden knowing ;kis to be the cam, have
regard from making the attempt, and seedy Innen have
consequently had to pay similar terms to those carnet on
Monday Ile for what they have required for immediate

the brewers Loring lesserally emalred their Furors to as
narrow limits as their wants have prodded : sellers have,
however, remained Ina, and the vans of the ankle has been

caution both on Wetleaday sad Friday, and they appear
to have made up their minds to clear of their old stocks, and
take the chars of better arrivals hereafter. Fasten hare
consequetly been unable to establish any adores ea former
prises, and though the trade was decidedly arm ea Friday,
Frees were not higher than before.

Our advice. from the coatisent are of mush the same
