London, England, 1836-10-19 00:00:00

The supplies of Grain and Flour still continue short. There
was so little good Wheat at Market to-day that the factors
would not sell unless at higher prices. Barley, Beans, and-
Pease are unaltered. There has been very little business done
in Oats to day, in consequence of greater prices being de-
manded. Flour sells at the late quotations with some freedom.
