MONEY MARKET.
Sunday, Oct. 40 r. M.

During the past week have received, by two arr-
walls from Liverpool, highly satisfactory and
raging advces in a commercial point of view, from all
parts Of Europe 1t pretty well settled that the bsr
vests of Europe generally, deficient in every
spect, and that very large quantity of breadstus will
be required from the United States there is other
source from which supplies to any extent can be de-
pended upon With every allowance for exsgge rated
statements, in relation to short crops &c. it cannot be
denied bu, that the grain growing countries the
tinent will require supplies from abroad instead Of be-
ing gable, usual to.meelany demand from other
tries There have already been large expectations of
breadstufs from Great Britain to the continent very
unusual for this trade which is indicative Of the
state of the crops in that part of the world From
France have the official statements of the govern
ment minister authority for saying, that at
hundred and fifty millions francs worth Of breadstus
will be required from foreign countries make good
the deficiency in the harvests. In Great Britain il is
estimated that ten millions sterling worth Of breadstuGs
will hardly suffice to supply the deficiency in the crops
of the United Kingdom II is impossible to estimate the
deficiency in other parts of Europe but they have
within their own limits sufficient to supply the domestic
demand they afford relief to their neghbors, who
have heretofore depended upon them npcrods OF scar
city.
It, therefore, appears, that the surplus agricultural
products of the United States will be required 10 eed
the population Of almost every part OF Europe ana
have no doubt but that every barrel Of -four and Dssne
of grain can spare will be required to meet the DE-
mand from abroad for actual consumption This demand
will. of course, have very great and very favorable
influence upon prices, and we have no doubt they will
advance to Shgher point than has been realized for
long time It very probable that there will from time
to time be reaction in the advance and spectators
will without doubt suffer serious losses but the result
If verv extensive external demand for breadstufs
must be very great Improvement in prices. There

not be heard in the upper part of the city, and
hence arises great difficulty in obtaining prompt
