favorable than the last. There had been decline

result of three first the suspension Of mills;
second the advance In bresdstufs and third the &C.
counts from this country Of larger yield than
previously anticipated. All these things tended
to depress the market, AZ stated above was
realised. The advance in breadstuns Is of the
most vital importance to this country, as 1t will
stimulate shipments and arrest the expectation
Of specie. The stoppase Of mills will reduce the
