reported the quantity OF foreign Wheat in bond
at 7s,l16 quarters, exclusive Of Barley, SC. and
OF Flour 70,797 cwt. or about 10000 brls. The
weather IN this country, until the beginning Of
August, was fine, and there was at that period a
fair prospect of a good harvest; from. about the
10th of August to the end of September, almost
mcessant rains prevailed, and great fears were
entertained of a very serious deficiency. Octo.
Der, however, proved favorable again, and during
these periods, prices varied as hopes or fears pre-
vailed. So much injury, however, has been sus-
tanned in most of the northern counties, and in
some parts Of Ireland, that the yield cannot be
considered an average one.
