Grain, 9C.-Ihc weather has turned brilliant and
warm with rising barometer, and wind ~ T.. The
harvest must be proceeding rapidly all over the South
OF England, and the cutting Of Barley and Oats has al
ready made some progress in Scotland. Wheaton,
Monday, about 100 quarters Of the crop appear
ed, and found buyers at COS. 10 6's per quarter; and
on Wednesday, had a good consumers demand
for foreign, but to-day progress can be made cX-

Barley, the crop is said to be very great mean
while the demand for old foreign is solely for feed
lng at low rates Oats salcabc in retail at Mon
days prices Amer. Flour being relatively cheaper
than that Of home manufacture, has been taken OFT
rather largely 27s. 70 2ys per bril- English Flour
has hung heavily on hand. The little new Barley
that has come forward has found takers at 3.s TO
4Os. per quarter. Foreign Barley has been almost
unsalcablc, particularly Egyptian aud similar quail
ties. The arrivals Of Oats have been small only
1850 quarters having come to hand since Saturday
night, inclusive Of 40 quarters from abroad. This
grain has nevertheless been very difficult of disposal

Corn Erchdnge.-The weather has been unfavor-
able and slight reaction has taken place in the corn
market, but prices again gave way. For the last
three days the weather has been very fine and the
harvesting, which has been partially suspended has
been RECOMMENDED with activity, with every pros
pect Of abundant crops. The large amount of foreign
grain received since Monday, has also affected the

We have had further considerable arrivals making
in the week over 200 900 barrels of Flour and large
Of other articles foreign and from Canada but only
riflng from Ireland and coastwise The trade since
Tuesday, though not very dull, has been quite un-
equal to the supply, and prices of almost every arti-
'ie have further given way. At this days market
here was pretty good attendance, but only mod
rate business in Wheat at cd. per 10 lbs under
tuesday, rates; Flour being so much lower in pro-
PORTION, our milcrs cannot manufacture, except to

Jorn as much per $50 lbs. lower. There was con-
siderable business in Flour, but much offered that
he price gave way Is. per brl.
