with l26 .o?7 bbls Of -four, % .5se bushels ofcorn
and 2lG3 bushels Of oats to. the British Provin-

appearance Of old Flour and Grain, and the in.
coming Of new, hare occasioned much i1regu-

modities. On the whole. however, Quotations
hafe n been yerr well supported for Flour. and
Wheat, aud the transactions in each hare been
ta'r, though materially restricted by the inade-
quase supplies Of desirable lots, and the general
tlrmness Of holders. The asking prices have,
