IMPORTING GRAIN TO ENGLAND.--A San
Francisco paper gives the condensed result
of the importatons of grain into England,
during the first half of the present year as
compared with the first half Of the prece-
ding year, from different foreign countries.
The. aggregate value of the grain import.
ations of the first half of the present year
is estimated at one hundred and five million
dollars, against fOrty.seven million in 1860.
OF this total about seventy-two millions
represent wheat and -four, importations OF
which in the same period of 1860 were below
fifteen millions. In 1859 France sent the
