RICHMOND MARKETS. September IA.
The Fall trade has begun 10 this city with mach
animation. stimulated BY somewhat cooler and
more agreeable weather after the late rains.
The Flour market has become again unsettled.
Thts 10 the result of the late rains Owing to the
drought In many parts of the country, the mills
were for weeks, and In some sections ior month
or two. unable to grind. The principal markets
were therefore, nearly bare of supplies and those
mills which could grnd-for instance, those Of thi.
city, which have never ceased day-gos the bene-
Mt OF consequent advance in prices. The recent
rains, however, which seem to have been abundant
have affected both Horr aud wheat. Since Mon.
day, there has been decline of so cents per Dbl in

The drought has been prevalent In great por-
ton of the Union and the corn crop Is very def
Gent This will of course affect the value of Flour
but how far remains to be seen.
Accounts from Europe are favorable to the har.
vest and breadstufs have declined in the English
markets. But our home markets have been tor
months independent OF the British. Flour here
has for that time sold several dollars in the barrel
sbo We the English price and could BY no means be
exported
The wheat crop In this country has after it Is full

cially that of Virginia. which Is OF the poorest
ever reaped. Yet, owing TO the large crop seeded,

ed. The corn crop must be one of the shortest for
many years The foreign demand, however, pro-
misses to be less this year than formerly. Indeed,
unless considerable decline takes place at home,
or considerable advance occurs abroad there will
be no inducement to foreign shipments of bread
stuffs, at least to Europe
