Review Of the European Corn Trade by

able Reports.

LONDON, September 13.-The Mark
Lane Express in its review OF the corn
trade for the past week, has the follow
ing: There has been put little change
in wheat markets generally, which,
with the new produce, have only been
moderately supplied, the best quality
mostly maintaining its previous value.
while inferior has tended downwards.
The general average is now within a
siX-pence of last year, though amounts
then sold were double those now, but
foreign imports still being free, the
country has been amply supplied at
rather lower rates. Flour has recovered
a franc in Paris, and fine old wheat has
risen one shilling per quarter The
French markets generally have been
calm and unchanged, but in some of
the country places there has been fur
ther decline. Belgium and Holland
have given away in new qualities about
shilling per quarter. In Germany the
tendency, from the fneness of the
weather, has been downward. The
same lie true in Hungary for inferior
qualities, though the yield is
scsrcely an average one, but at
Odessa holders maintain prices

eventually be paid for their patience as
the season advances and the general de-

present yield as only an average one in
quantity, and as from this q large de-
ductiOn must be made for it's general
ligbtness, in the actual amount OF flour
produced, we may possibly count Oh a
further deficiency OF seven hundred and
fifty thousand quarters at a time when
our population is vastly on the increase.
We have no doubt that the imports will
meet our necessities, but we expect, as
the season terminates, it will be a close
