The Germ Traae or Europe.

The Corn Traae OF Europe.
From the London Mercantile Gazette, Nov, 20
The official account OF the imports OF grain pulse,
and -four into the United King 1om during the month
which IT appears that with the exception Of sur in
which there is increase the supplies of all other
articles bsve as compared with the arrivals Of the pre-
cediag month decreased materially and s have
now arrived at period OF the year when the ship
ments from the nerthsrs ports Of Europe usually fall
OF wemay calculate on more oderate receipts during
the winter 1t Is consequently not improbable that
the value Of agricultural produce may advance mere
less In this country; for II is undisputed fact,
that our own crops yielded less than average

been csused wholly by the constant pressure of TO-
reign grain and meal on the markets. We are, how
by no means sanguine as to any material i'm
prove ment in wheat being convinced that France and
other southern countries will continue to send sup
plies 70 Great Britain throughout the winter; and
also look fer increase in the deliveries from our
farmers about Christmas time, "a they will then
be under the necessity Of raising funds TO meet rents
and other expenses. Hitherto speculative invest
dealers have in patton OF oderate rise deemed
it advisable to add more or less to their stocks and
demand has been more active during the present
week tkan ut any previous period for some time past
This has naturally led holders to raise their preten
sions, and eovsncs of Is per Or has been pretty
generally established well at the chief in the
agricultural Districts as at the leading consuming
towns. The upward movement has not been confined
to wheat alone, barley and oats having risen in
fully the ssme proportion; aud the crops of the
last named articles have proc uced indiherenty on
the continent as well as in England we are inclined

Germany is stil very unsettled and it is impossibs

to interfere with the regular of business aud
would probably have the effect OF materially essening
the supplies OF foreign corn into this country. This
contingency Is not io,t sight Of ard has had some

holders If grain The arrivals OF wheat coat wise into
