The arrivals into this port, during the week ending yesterday,
consist of 3018 barrels of Flour from Canada, 8023 quarters of
Beans from Egypt, 1810 barrels Corn Meal, and 17,263 quarters
of Indian Corn, chiefly from the American States; beyond
which, our supplies coastwise, from Ireland or abroad, are
trivial.

Since the close of last week we have had much heavy rain
here, and though yesterday was tolerably fine, the weather last
night was again wet, and it is showery to-day, thereby pro-
tracting harvest to a later period than is desirable ; hi-
therto, however, we have few surmises of the grain crops
having sustained trny serious injury from the rains. With re-
gard to Potatoes, accounts from some parts of Ireland still com-
plain of disease, but in general they arc certainly more favour-
able than of late. Our markets are at present freely supplied
with excellent quality at low prices ; but it is much too early to
pass any certain opinion upon the later crop, though in ordinary
years present appearances would have led to little suspicion of
even a partial failure of any importance.
In consequence of the short supplies at hand, we had but a
limited display of Wheat samples atour Corn Exchange to-day,
and needy buyers were oblised to pay a further advance upon
that of Friday • thereby raising our quotations for general runs
2d. to 3d., aid upon fine qualities of English, Irish and Foreign
3d. to 4d., over the rates of this day week, at which a fair
amount of business was transacted. _ . _

Flour, although not in brisk demand, realized, in English and
Irish, an advance of Is. per sack, and, in American, 6d. to Is.
per barrel over the rates of Tuesday last.
In Barley and Malt we have no change to note.
Beans and Pease were little noticed, and rather easier to pur-
chase. _ _ _

Oats were 2d. per 451 b., and Oatmeal Is. per load dearer.
The supply of Indian Corn being large, and met by fewer
buyers from Ireland, must be noted Is. per qr. cheaper; and
Indian Meal receded 6d. per barrel.
