HULL, JULY 3.
Messrs. Taylor and Bright's Circular states :—With a
somewhat increased import during the past week, business on
the whole has been very lifeless • some portion of the arrival
has been merely in transit, and the bulk of what offers on this
market is priced at rates which buyers are not yet disposed to
give, in fact the whole character of the trade is retail, and
speculation is almost unknown. We have had, on the whole,
seasonable weather, though more sun is now desirable. The
probability is that harvest will be ten to fourteen dayslater than
last year. There was but little life in to-day's market ; millers,
being moderately in stock, are not needy buyers, and hence
hold back from complying with the advance demanded by both
farmers and factors. The former sought a further advance of
2s to 3s per clearter to-day, and factors expected a full shilling,
but no improvement could be established on last week's rates,
indeed these were only maintained for picked samples. Spring
corn has been in general improved request during the week,
and to-day grinding barley makes Is more money, while fine

said of cakes, both English and foreign, for present and for-
ward delivery. Nothing doing in rapeseed, and for rape cakes
the demand is very slow. Irregular prices prevail for bones
apportioned to the daily supply and demand, the season being
all but over.

LIVERPOOL, JULY 3.—At this day's market there was a fair
attendance of the trade, and a good business was done in wheat
and flour, at fully the prices of this day week. Oats and oat-
meal remained neglected and without change. Barley, beans,

some inquiry for Indian corn, but owing to the heavy arrivals
a decline of is 6d to 2s per quarter on yellow, and I s per quarter
on white was submitted to.

CHELMSFORD, JUNE 29.—With a very thin attendance,
a rather limited supply. and an extremely slack trade. Wheats
of the best quality realised an advance of is per quarter, and

Partridge Peas, which were scarce, and much in demand.
