CROP PROSPECTS.
The Mark Lane Express, in its weekly
review Of the breadstutfs market, says
With less rain and colder temperature,
the weather here and on the continent
has been favorable for late potatoes, seed
sowing, and all kinds OF field work.
In France all the varieties OF potatoes
are abundant and free from disease. The
tendency OF the wheat market here is
rather upward, and in some cases there
has been an advance OF a shilling. The
markets ot France and Belgium ARve
slowly followed those Of Great B:itain.
The sales in England during the week
show diminution OF ten thousand quar-
ters, which makes an evident reluctance
OF growers to accept the present rates.
Freights in Hungary ere declining, though
they are yet too high to admit OF the ship.
ment OF wheat to England. Southern
Russia Is beginning, however, to ship, de-
spairing Of doing better for some time TO
come as the supplies are rapidly incress.
ing, Il is thought that the cold weather
will soon interfere with the shipments
from America by the closing of tho rivers
and canals, when some improvement in
prices Is expected.
