4th, the wheat trade again ruled dull, with the turn on

descriptions in favour of the buyer. At Worcester, the
same day, dry parcels we:e more in demand. Barley
less pressed for sale, and unaltered in value. More doing
in oat,., at a dechne (.f 6 i per quarter. Beans and peas
taken in rie,ail rather under former prices. This week
we have again had little passing in the wheat trade, but
lower rates have not been submitted to for any descrip-
tion. Bair ley finds buyers at former currency. Oats sell
more freely at our reduced quotations of last week«
Very few transactions reported in beans or peas. At
this day's market there was a fair supply of wheat, and
we maks no alteration in our quotations for any descrip
tion except Polish Odessa, which was 61 to is per quare
ter lower. Barley very dull, and to have made progress
less money must have been taken. Very little doing in.
