LONDON CORN EXCHANGE-YESTERDAY

The intelligence respecting the weather and the progress
of the harvest, which we have this morning received from
our correspondents in various parts of the country, is of a
►r►ore satisfactory nature than the accounts which reached us
towards the close of last week, and most of the markets held
on Friday and Saturday, although scantily supplied with
Wheat, are reported as having been much duller than those
held during the late stormy and unsettled weather in the be-
ginning of the week.
There was only a moderate supply of Wheat from Essex,
Kent, and Suffolk, at this morning's market, and scarcely a
single quarter offering from more remote counties. The
greater part of the Wheat on sale was new, and in conse-
quence of the showery weather last week, the condition was
much affected, and sales of such progressed slowly at a de-
cline of from 2s to 3s per qr. The demand for foreign Wheat
was inactive, and last week's prices were with difficulty sup-
ported. Flour sold slowly at our quotations. In Barley
there was little doing, and prices remain without alteration.
The arrivals of Oats continue small, and fine fresh qualities
fully supported previous rates. Beans were in slow demand,
and former prices were with difficulty maintained. We had
a fair supply of Peas, and that article must be quoted is to
2s per quarter cheaper.
