The weather during the week having been
nuggy and untavorable to trade, prices have,
| ia most cases, gone down about Is. per o.,
| from the reduction OF value in condition. Il:
Paris, too, there las been i decline in four Of
franc from the same cause; but Germany has
been rather improving lately, though Begium
and Holland Lave not. Farmers still show
| short deliveries as compared with last year,
and busine IS has been heavy in consequence.
| About IS ,OOC qrs. wheat have been shipped
from Australia this month, and 5,oGo tons OF
| -four; but our imports have rather fallen off OF
late, and may be expected to do 80 till rates
! pay better.
