THE PRICE OF BREAD IN THE PRoviiross.--- blip
derable dissatisfaction appears to exist Hi the Pll,,eir
mind with respect to the high price charged for !'
commodities by the country bakers, and
have been held in several towns in Devon and Soniernf;
with the view of reducing the price of bread to the PIA
sent reduced price of wheat. In Devonshire it is uirogoeal
with much truth, that, as the price of grain in tiler 9r'
as well as London markets is from 12s. to 15s. Perlier
lower than it was a few weeks since, the consul%
ought to be benefited by a corresponding diminution
the puce of his loaf. So slow, indeed, have the country
public reectuj..lc
to
bakers been in reducing their high tariff, and en readY
advance with every market that afforded the slight'est,
pretext for it, that Bread Consuming Companies are start

ate
classes in Taunton have taken this work in handy
during the past week much agitation has prevailed there
on the subject ; and in the town of Devonport, whe,,,.
some thousands of workmen are employed in the dec'of
yard and other Government works, the same state at
feeling is manifested, the price of the 81b. loaf there_
e_
present varying from ls. 3d. to ls. 6d., while in oth
places the price is Is. ld. to ls. 2d.
