Letters in town from the north of England state that,
should the weather prove fine, harvest operations will be
brought to a close there by the end of the present week.
The country markets held on Saturday were tolerably
firm for fine Wheats, at full prices. In spring Corn only
a limited business was transacted. Our advices from the
Continent are to the effect that rather more inquiry has
existed tor Wheat and Flour for shipment to England,
but at low prices. Up to our market last week the ar-
rivals of English Wheat were somewhat good; but those
of all other articles of home produce were small. A few
cargoes of Oats reached us from Ireland and Scotland.
The foreign imports amounted to 10,384 quarters of
Oats, 4,480 ditto of Barley, 21,993 ditto of Oats, 55 ditto
Beans, 520 ditto of Peas, 114 ditto of Tares, 2,439 ditto
of Linseed, 199 ditto of Rapeseed, 89 ditto of Mustard
Seed, 167 ditto of sundry Seeds, 300 ditto of Indian
Corn, 3,859 sacks and 2.278 barrels of Flour.
The quantity of English Wheat received fresh up to our
market this morning, coastwise, was very moderate, that
by land-carriage moderately good, and of full average
quality. The stands were by no means heavily filled
with samples, and the demand, from the increased num-
ber of buyers in attendance, was somewhat active, at an
advance in the quotations of Monday last of from is to
2s per quarter, and at which a clearance was effected
prior to the close of bnsiness. Several of the offers, for
shipment coastwise from Lincolnshire and Cambridge.
shire, were taken by leading millers. With Foreign
Wheat we were tolerably well, but not to say largely,
supplied, considering the heavy imports which took
place from the Baltic a short time since. We had
a good consumptive demand for that article, at
a rise in the prices of this day se'nnight of
quite is per quarter. In floating cargoes, very few
transactions were reported, but most of the late arrivals
have changed bands on board, consequently, landing ex
penses have been saved. Scarcely any English Barley
was on show. The few samples. brought forward were
cleared off at very full prices. Fine foreign parcels ruled
tolerably firm, at late rates. In the middling and in-
ferior kinds, very few transactions took place. Although
the supply of Malt was small, that article met a very
dull inquiry, at barely stationary prices. With home-
grown Oats we were very scantily supplied. The quan-
tity of foreign was rather extensive. There
was a steady inquiry for selected samples, at
the extreme rates of last week, but damp
and inferior qualities commanded very little attention,
yet we cannot call them cheaper. For most kinds of
Beans the sale was tolerably firm, at prices quite equal
to those paid last week. Grey and Maple Peas moved
off freely, at full currencies. In other kinds very few
sales took place. Indian Corn was held for rather more
money. Indian Meal heavy. We were well supplied
with French Flour. The quantity of English was small.
Rather more business was passing in most kinds, at last
week's decline. Top price of English, 40s per 2801bs.

The total importations of foreign stock into London
last week were small for the time of year. The general
quality of the Beasts was good, that of the Sheep,
Lambs, Calves, and Pigs very inferior.

Same week in
1847.. ...... 1,168 .. 3,296 .. 176 ... 316 ... 120
At the Northern outports about 1,300 head of stock
have arrived, mostly from Rotterdam. The arrivals at
Southampton have been confined to eight oxea from
Spain. A very large quantity of preserved meat-46,602
canisters—has arrived in London since our last from
Russia. The supplies of foreign stock in to-day's mar-
ket were somewhat extensive, but of very middling qua-
lity, especially as regards the Sheep. From our own
grazing districts, the arrivals of Beasts fresh up this
morning were seasonably good, both as to number and
quality. As the dead markets were well cleared of their
late supplies, the weather more favourable to slaughter-
ing, and the attendance of buyers somewhat on the in•
crease, the primest Scots, Downs, &c., commanded a
steady sale, at prices quite equal to those obtained on
Monday last, via., from 3s 10d to 4s Od per 81b. A good
clearance of most other breeds was effected, though, in
some instances, at a slight decline in the quotations.
From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton-
shire, 'we received 1,300 short horns; from Norfolk,
Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, 800 Scots and short
horns; from the western and midland districts, 600
Herefords, Runts, Devons, &c.; from other parts of
England 600 of' various breeds; and, from Scotland, 120
Scots. With Sheep we were heavily supplied for the
time of year. On the whole the Mutton trade was firm,
and last Monday's currencies were fairly supported. The
primest old Downs went at 49 to 4s 2d; balf-breds, 3s
10d to 4s per Blbs. Lambs are now nearly out of sea-
ton. That description of stock moved off slowly, at
about last week's prices. Prime small Calves sold
steadily, at full prices. Otherwise the Veal trade was
heavy. Very few Pigs were on offer. The sale fur them
was slow, at last wet k's currencies.

NEVITGATZ AND LEADENHALL.
Since our last report these markets have exhibited
fair average time of year supplies of each kind of Meat,
a portion of which has been derived from the provinces.
There has been a decided improvement in the demand,
at, in some instances, further advanced rates. About
1,000 carcases of foreign Meat have been disposed of.

ZOSIOUG3I AND SPITA.LPIELDS.
The moderate nature of the supplies of Potatoes
brought forward since Monday last has induced firmness
on the part of the salesmen. In some instances rather
more money has been obtained for picked samples.
Regents have sold at from 31 15s to 41 15; Shaws,
21 15s to 4/; and White Kidneys, 31 15s to 51 per ton.
Last week's imports were confined to 107 sacks from
Havre; 177 bags from Dunkirk;. 10 casks and 7 baskets
from Rotterdam; and 47 bags from Calais. Extensive
arrivals may be looked for from the continent towards
the close of the present month. Provincial reports still
speak of the existence of disease; yet the quality of the
potatoes on sale here is undoubtedly good.
BOROUGH HOP IV/A.RIEET.
Picking has at length been pretty generally com-

menced in most districts. Although the produce is not
equal to that of last season, nod our market is but mo-
derately supplied, the dernand for all kinds of I-lops is
heavy, on lower terms. The duty is fru-1y backed at
95004 Sussex pccltrts, 31 to 41 4s; Weald of
Kent ditto, 31 5s to 41 ss; Mid end East Kent ditto,
31 5s to 61 16s per cwt.
