The Foreign Corn Trade.

from the Mark lane Express July 26.l
The weather appears TO have undergone similar
Improvement ON the continent to that which it has
undergone here. These, and the very dull reports
from hence, have not been without their influence
but as stocks are snort, prices have not
given way in the foreign markets to the same extent
At Dsnzig, on Tuesday last, the weather was wet
which, with The belief that England would sooner
or later require further aid, impaired considerable
fImness to the wheat trade. The day before, SOC
qrs. OF ordinary mixed quality, weighing go lbs per
buthel, changed hands at So. to COS; and it would
not have been easy to have bought really fine high
mixed below 70s. per quarter, free on board.
>, A. Re e on Monday the weather was fine; but
done by The heavy rain which had fall On, inasmuch
as the crops had been good deal lodged AMI beaten
down. With this exception aud partial complaints
OF ruGt the reports to the Appearance OF the out
standing corn were favorable. stocks were very
trihing, and some orders received from hence,
limited at zoe. per quarter free ON beard, il had
been impossible to execute.
At Stettn on the 10th inst. holders Of wheat
were not by any means anxious sellers, though the
prospects for the approaching harvest were con-
sidered to be promising. Some days previous
parcel Of fine Uckermark weighing 81 lbs. had been
sold at 63s. to CAS-, red Stettin at 8Os to &c. and
Polish at Cos. to 63s per quarter, free on board.
Hamburg letters OF Tuesday state that, not With
standing the dull reports from hence, holders Of
wheat had refused to make any material concession
in prices and for the few small lots which had been
taken to complete cargoes, full terms had been
paid, say 70s. for Gibbs. MeckeUburg, $685. for 60t
lbs. ditto, and S8s. for 59bs Upland. all per 4sObs.
Spring corn was dull and lower; EOS. TO 29s. 3d. per
qusrter having been taken for 53bs to 54bs. Danish
barley and 26s per quarter fee on board, for 4obs
oats from Jutland.
In the Dutch markets nothing whatever appears
to have bern done for export; and nj Rotterdam,
Monday, wheat moved off slowly for local consump.
ton, at decline OF Is. per quarter on the currency
Of that day week.
From France we learn that harvest was fast pro-
crossing in the southern parts of the kingdom
Farmers had been too busily &C upied to bring for
ward supplies OF new wheat and. stocks Of old be-
ing all but exhausted, prices had been well main
tanned In the face Of fine weather aud favorable re-
ports as to the yield Of the new crop. AT Paris. on
Wednesday, buyers of wheat and -four confined
heir purchases to what they were compelled to
take to provide for pressing wants but so trffing
the quantity sale, that previous prices were
steadily supported. The stock of -four had been
reduced to 10 200 met. quin. At Havre business
,hous b the quantity Of American -four held there
had been greatly reduced, Its value had continued
to tend downwards.
The advices from Italy, Spain, &C., state that
operations were dra wing to close, and that
farmers were generally Satisfied with the result.
Supplies OF new wheat were beginning to come for
ward. and prices were everywhere declining.
Whether Italy will have any wheat to spare for ex-
port may be doubted; but she win certainly not re-
quire to import to anything like the extent Of last
yer, and Spain will probably be in . position to
afford Great Britain supplies TO some extent. The
Indian corn crop is likely to give very good yield
