i The Mark Lane Erpress of May 81, says:
Advices from Norfolk and ten other counties
! arc discouraging. A large quantity of wheat
| has been plowcd in and the land sown with
spring corn, and the estimated acreage Of
wheat in these districts this year will scarcely
EXCEED half the acreage growth. Farmers
continue to market the reserve wheat very
/ freely at country markets, but business 10 dull
I and buyers apatlletic. and prices slightly de-,
clined. At Mark Lane the offerings were made
| and previous prices maintained with difficulty.
The imports of foreign into London last Mon
day were $1,000 quarters. The subsequent ar
| rivals,to Friday were $1,000 quarters. At the
| commencement. of the week sellers showed
considerable tirmness, but the return of fine
| weather and weaker reports from America de-
| prived trade OF its; buoyancy and sales were
| difficult at previous quotations. Business was
| fairly active during the week, as the retail
wants. of miller kept sellers employed and the
! finer growths Of spring American wheat were
in fair request Maize improved six pence per
| quarter since Monday, and considerable guam
| titles were sold at that advance, but other
| varieties OF feeding corn sold at former values
With small arrivals at ports of call during the
! week the floating cargo trade for wheat was
dull and prices declined six pence per quarter.
Maize, with limited inquiry, was three pehta
and, six pence per quarter lower Barley
| steady. Sales of English wheat last week,
53,e72 quarters at II shillngs i pence per
quarter against 35 5544 quarters at 81 shilings
! Of previous year. The imports into the united
kingdom for the week ending May 18th
amounted 10 .443,2sl hundred weights OF wheat
and 80 e3O hundred weights Of -four =.
