The British Wheat Trade.
LONDON, March 12-The Mark Lane E.c-
press says; The offerings in English wheat
have been moderate, both at Mark Lane and
In the country. The general aspect of the
trade shows greater confidence On the part of
buyers, aud a more active demand than for
some time past. Prices continue to improve,
and an advance Of one shilling per quarter
on both English and foreign wheat was well
maintained at the market ON Monday last,
when, with unusually light imports, mlllers
bought with tolerable freedom. Subsequent
markets held in London have, it is true, been
less animated, but holders have shown no in
cllnatlon to lower their pretensions now that
wheat ssqciSs have fallen low ana confidence
IN the future is 10 sorne extent restored by
the firm attitude of American markets and
revival of the continental demand. Con-
siderable sales of fine Russian and American
wheat have been made at an advance of one
shilling and sixpence per quarter from the
recent lowest point. Except maize, which
has given way from threepenco to sixpence
per quarter, under the pressure of continued
liberal imports, business in feeding corn has
not qaotably changed, and the demand is
mainly of a retail and consumptive nature at
about late rates. The sales of English wheat
last week amounted TO IA, 491 quarters at
thirty-nine shiilings one penny, against
80. 748 quarters at fifty shillings twopence
for the corresponding period the previous
year. Imports into t9e United Kingdom for
the week ending March LIST, were 537, 721
cwts. wheat. and 137, e3l cwts. flour"
lord saiisbgry's Reply TO the Russian
Representation
VIENNA, March 12.-Lord Salisbury re-
ply OF the twenty SIXTH Of January to the
Russian representation. made January 8 /, as
to the danger likely to arise if the work OF
the international commissioners be retarded
by dlsagreements, points out that the Rus
sian delegates On the Dobrudscha boundary
commission have been opposed to all their
colleagues relative TO the Silistria question.
The Russian members Of the commission for
setting tie boanGg~ies and the constitution
of Rou al no
position. Lord Salisbury says he does not
cite these facts for the purpose of throwing
the blame on the Rus sian delegates, who
doubtless had sufficient reasons for their con-
duct, but only to defend the British delegates
f-cu, The charge of obstruction. The British
government is aware that the execution OF
the treaty is delicate task, requiring good
will ana iial =. nnv, and will continue to i'm
press upon its representative re necessity OF
pursuing the conciiiatoFy policy TO which
Prince Gortschakoff alludes. At the same
time the government would be wanting in
sincerity If it did not point out certain cases
in viii. h the Russian agents, disregarding
the loyal and enlightened policy of the car
has declared 1t his wish to pursue a render
ing execution of the treaty. The conduct OF
the Russian functlonary IN eastern Roumella
distinctly tends to impress the people that they
will be united with Bulgaria, and even shows
resisting the establishment of separate reg
linen. Lord Salisbury cites in proof of these
assertions the fact that the government Of
eastern Roumelia Is subordinate to the gov
eminent OF Bulgaria, and is, apparently, in
tended &c remain so until the close of the
occu patioD, thus making transition to the
new regime as sudden and abrupt as possible
and decidedly tending to encourage a resist

Bulgaria and R0umelia, while, according tC
the treaty, the forces of the two provinces
should be distinct. The British government
cannot believe, considering the sentiments
the &c; peror has expressed, that these dlspo
sitioEs are IL accordance with his will, ano
consider that they should cease as soon al
possible. The Roumelisn resistance to thu
treaty cannot be successful, as 1t will have Il
deal with far superior forces, but 1t nigh
lead TO renewal of the untold suffering
endured in the late war The responsibility
of fostering an illusion which might lead t.
such consequences is very grave.
The Times, IN a leading article, referring
to the passage about superior forces, says
at Is imperative for the British government
to make 1t plain that it will insist upon thu
fulfllment of the treaty. Upon this poin
it is satisfactory to observe that Lord Sails
bury's dispatch Is perfectly explicit
The Political Correspondence says that tn
foregoing is a confidential dispatch from LORI
Salisbury to Lord Augustus LOTUS, who wa
then British ambassador to st. Petersburg.
