Messrs. Taylor and Bright's Circular states :—The arrivals
during the week have been limited, and mere firmness is per-
ceptible in the trade. At to-day's market our farmers brought
a moderate supply of wheat, and best samples fetched full
prices—in some instances Is more money; for moderate quali-
ties there was not much inquiry. For foreign wheat there was
a better demand, and not much offering. Barley continues
scarce, and is worth more money. Oats the turn dearer, as
are also hearts and peas. The linseed market is only dull, but
more. inquiry for cakes. Rapeseed and cakes unaltered. Bones
in good demand and scarce.
