From Paris there is political news of impor-
every matter OF interest being cent red in the
all-engrossiDg Turkish question: The idea of war
was generally secuted The following il n resume Of
French commercial affairs and contains some impor-
taLt information =
The last has been melancholy week in the com.
nercal circles "f Paris. The effect produced by the
increasing difficulties of the Eastern question ia felt
in all branches OF industry in France The manu-
facturers have suspend d their purchases of raw
material, and the demand for expectation has expe
rienced a remarkable check. Tradesmen of every
description are heard to complain that the diploma
tits engaged in the stair have not this put an
end to the present state of uncertainty, Which IL
prolonged, win do injury to trade than regu-
lar declaration of war between Russia and Turkey
The foreign commission brokers' in Paris have ad-
ouIned oil their orders or purchase merely patterns
The only foreign orders executed during the last fifteen
days ere for the United States and South America.
The American purchases consist chiefly of silks and
woolens, which have enabled the manufacturers OF
tiese articles to give employment to their operatives
The other branches OF industry are doing little or
nothing. complete revolution il about to take
place in the manufacture Of gloves. 70 inhabitants
OF Grenobe invented about the same time machine
for sewing gloves; but in place Of competing with
each other they agreed to unite the advantages of
each invention. One found means to Few mechani-
cay the fingers OF gloves, whilst the other, after
| sewing the remainder Of the glove, was compelled to
employ operatives to sew the fingers. The inventors,
by combining the two machines, have produced
one which sews gloves perfectly. This discovery
i
the manufacturers were not able to supply the
demand for want of a sufficient number of opera
tyes. Notwithstanding the favorable harvest
| weather We have experienced during the last few
days the rise III the price fwheat and -four has made
further progress in the Paris market The irst quail
ty oftonr which was quoted week since at 60 francs
the sack Of l57 kilogramnes, is now worth 76
! francs Nevertheless the rain which caused SO much
uneasness hos ceased and it is ascertained that the
injury suffered 10y the growing crops though in some
districts great is not 50 serious as had been appre-
hended. It Is even expected that the forthcoming
harvest will be equal to fair ordinary average. The
rise in flour ia caused more Iy purchases made
speculation than for consumption, and the bakers
refuse TO purchase at the present prices which they
Paris stores has decreased this week by 900 qun-
tails and is reduced to about % 900 quintas or
14,sOO sacks. u is long time since the stock Of
flour in Paris was reduced so low. The rise in the
price Of wheat has rather anticipated than followed
that Of -four The highest price of wheat Is days
since did not exceed 34f the 100 kilogrammes. 1t
is at present quoted at 3Sf equal to 32f the metrcsl
guintal, the highest price throughout France.
Beef and mutton continue to be in good demand in
the cattle fairs throughout the departments. Leterz
om the Dr6me and the Ardechc state that it is cal
culated the SILK gathering is three weeks later than
usual, and considerable deficiency is apprehended.
The crop in tie communes of Rnanne and Joyeuse is
estimated at not more than half an ordinary average.
The tendency is evidently to rise in the price Of
wine at the wine market Of Berry, in consequence of
the nnfavorable accounts received from the wine
growing districts Accounts from Bordeaux state
that the vines in that neghborhood have already inn
proved from the sunshine which prevailed for the
last week. Red wine was quoted at from 296f to
350f. the hogshead Considerable activity prevails
in the wine trade at PeZenas, Montpelier Cette, and
MeZe, and fuboded wines are in good demand.
The vintage bears a magnificent appearance in the
department of the Var, and wines are dull of sale.
Prices are well maintained in B0urgogne and in the
Orleannas. Brandes have again risen; they are
Bordeaux.
