FOREIGN DEMAND FOR GRAIN.

It is estimated that the United Kingdom
Of Great Britain, by the 31st Of August, will
have imported, between the LIST of April 1873,
and that date, about 43,00O,00O bushels Of
wheat. 1t is further estimated that the Uni
ted States, on an average, furnishes one.
fourth of the importations into that country.
According to careful calculations, the total
visible supply Of wheat in this country at
present, including stocks in granary at the
principal points of accumulation, and cargoes
IN transit, is Z 100000 bushels. At this
time last year it was 8.344,2l8. Assuming
that America furnishes one-fourth of the
supply to the United Kingdom, her proper
ton, from the above figures, will fall about
100000 into the present crop, some of which
Will be ready for market before the 31st of
August. This exhibit would argue conside-
rable stimulation to the price of wheat, and
certainly sustains the belief that breadstuffs
will rule steady and firm at present. prices at
least. We do not Ike to speculate in such
matters, however, in which our people are SO
largely interested. Our opinion might be
erroneous, and we unwittingly be the cause
Of Improbable operations. We prefer to pre-
sent the facts, aud submit them for deduc-
tioas to the minds Of those more deeply and
personally interested than we are.
