Tn trade at Aarkline has maintained a tlerably firm
zone Out ere has not been much doing, buyers having
~ general confined their operations as narrow limits a.
their pressing wants have allowed English wheat bas
come very sparugy to hand, only 7G3 quarter, having
been received during the week ending this iaturisy1
evening The quantity brought forward by ndcarrisgs
samples from the neghboring counties has ms.nvbi3o
been trhing; but 20 cautiously have the miers acted
that great difficulty has been experienced ia eectng "a les

easterly wind have already remarked BROUGHT 10 hand
good supply Of wheat from the Baltic ports inieed he
arrival has rather exceeded what had calculated ON
The last Sound List shows that further uant,v of
wheat on passage from the Baltic and therefore moro
than probable that may again have good supply nerd
week. Under this belief, buyers have held alooE A. a.
as their wants have permitted. On "Wednesday verv liz
little business vas done, but decline Of about 4. per
quarter having been pretty geuersly submitted 10 on h
day, the inquiry improved, aud more wheat changed
hands on the latter occasion than any market day for
some hne past Inc transactions In floating cargOes
have been uumpOrtaut, the asked having been re-
huyey higher than those az which parcels in granary
I might been purchased. The arrivals from Black Sea
ports on thc coast have been quite unimportant al
there only about hai-a-dozeu arrived carzoes ppis
posed Of Holders have in general remained very 6rn,
but n some lev cases rather less money has been t en-
The offers from the Baltic have rather Bcrea.e ain tbe,

The sale for Hour among tne bakers has been exceed
ingy SLOW throughout the week, but the nominal ton
price has been steadily supported. Country household
