Com : Having a full attendance of buyers at our Corn Ex-
change this morning, we had a good enquiry for foreign wheat, and
a fair quantity was taken by consumers, inferior qualities, which
have been depressed of late, acquiring an advance of ld to 2d
per 701bs, while finer sorts were saleable at the extreme quo-
tations of this day se'nnight. At our farmer's market to.day,
upon a moderate attendance and a fair show of wheat, a better
demand was experienced, and prices ruled in favour of the
seller ; in some instances Id per bushel advance was obtained.
Good flour was again in request, and a further improvement
was realised on the prices of Friday, placing our quotations
I s 6d per brl, and 3s per sack, over the prices of this day week.
Oatmeal and beans moved off slowly without change in value.
Oats and barley were in fair demand at our previous quota-
tions. Indian corn, although held firmly at the improved
