A sale Of round Germ has been made at 75c

been sold as high as los cents Flour is dull.
Cotton market flat, stocks large. Exchange ris-

We give below a view Of the principal Grain
Markets of Europe, from which it would appear
prices to be materially affected in this country
but from political causes, Or failure in the grow
ing crops in Europe, those Of EngIandaud France
especially:
LONDON. Jsae ISth.-The trade in general
throughout the week continues iii very languid
aud depressed state. From Abroad, there does
not seem TO exist any cause to operate on our
trade. At Hamburg the supplies from the Corn
districts have completely fallen Of, and unless
prices sustain again considerable advance, there
is little probability till next Harvest of their re.
ceiving any GOOD qualities Of Wheat, as from the
Upper part of the tlbe and Countries lying con-
tigious to the River they have exported all they
had, and prices must increase IN the ratio of the
expense incurred in drawing supplies futher from
the interior; they have now on hand about 49,
900 9rs. of Wheat consisting of inferior descrip-
tons, and great deal out Of condition. In Co.
penhagen and the Danish Ports, the quality of
Wheat this season has been such, as almost to
prohibit their expectation to England From the
lower Ports of the Baltic it is generally acknow-
lodged that they have no supplies of Wheat left
and that any extensive orders could not be exc
cuted. Barley and Oats however are now find
ing ready market in Sweden. At Stettin, aud
the upper Prussian Baltic Ports, all their best
qualities have ZEN already purchased. and no
further arrivals to any amount are anticipated,
and at the grand mart of Grain, Danzig, they
haze not more than from so to $4,000 ours. of
Wheat in Warehouse, the greatest portion of
which is inferior, out Of condition. and unfit for
shipment, and till the next harvest no supplies
can be looked for. The rye and oats on hand
have been cleared off the markets for Russian
and Prussan account. AT the Russian Ports,
except ArchangeI, shipments are now being
made, and Riga supplies have begun to arrive
here--on reference to some statements from Ri
ga and st. Petersburg We observe, that the ex-
ports this year were calculated would amount
from Riga TO l1S.O0O qrs. of Wheat, $4,000
of Barley. and 10000 qrs ofOats, and from st.
Petersburg to 1856, 875 grs Of wheat, ADD 1888
grs. of oats, OF course the greatest portion will
come to Great Britain. Ii we turn our attention
to France, and the Mediterranean, we find that
France experiencing great scarcity of Wheat
and Rye, and that the want OF supplies in Nor
mandy aud the Picard is severely felt. The ports
in the Channel are now open for importation of
Wheat and Flour at their lowest rate of Duties.
From the principal ports in the Mediterranean,
they have exported all their soft best qualities of
Wheat, and what is remaining on hand is fbard
inferior descriptions.
At Odessa they are now receiving their supplies
from the interior, and we may still expect some
arrivals from thence. At Seville, and other parts
of Span, Wheat is ranging at high prices, and we
cannot look forward to any very extensive sup
plies from that part Of the world. In conclusion
we must observe, that in all the Nothern Ports of
Europe, they have literally no stock in GranarS.
and their means Of supplies are either exhausted
or curtaied from political causes, and that their
future arrivals are totally dependent on the pro-
duce of the forthcoming Harvest. Fortunately
the Crops in Germany, Prussia, Prussian Poland,
France, and Italy, are spoken of, with very few
