Again we have a taste Of winter in its severl-
" and roughness, there Icing very sharp
fyost on Monday night, with subsequent rain
and gales, doing much harm to shipping, and
being i; further lmpedinent to field work, al
ready SO much in alrear; while the condition
OF samples has been considerably deteriorated
All this, pied with continuance OF heavy
foreign supplies, has been against the price OF
wheat, and several markets have gwen way Is.
Der Or. while all hav been more or less dull.
it seems also that France and nearly all Eu-
rope have exl erenced severe and rough
weather. quite against the completion OF au-
tu,nL al sowings, and the digging OF the potato
crop, which in some places has thereby sui I
fer,d twenty per cent, with more dlfhculty III |
keeping that ral.ed, and this IS expected TO |
have. an influence on the price o. com. In /
Paris the flour market hs slightly iiuctuated,
leaving prices as they Were, but the best wheat
has gained IS. III value, from the few offers,
though in the I'ioy iuceS there has been Lttl-
change The same complaints OF short de-
iverlrs come from Belgium and Holland, with
prices hardell g, AS some OF the German
mark l. exhibit similar features; but the fact
that several # the Baltic ports have been
closed unusually early by frost, has made very
little ditirlence trade mostly being quiet. Our
own deliveries again show 4 decided decl he III

advices OF our late cable news; and as values
have already hardened i'll Russia, the Blac k
Sea as well as the Baltic may be cut of from
all export trade till spring. ANY movement
here would br sure to find its answer on the
other side OF the Atlantic, where We know the
harvest has been deficient.
