LoNDoN. Feb. 1S-The Mark Lane Erpress
i'm its weekly review OF the British gram
trade, says: ''Mild, spring-hke weather has
favored the sowing of beans and peas. Pre-
paratiOns to SOW the spring grain crops are
being rapidly made. Autumn-sOw crops
look exceedingly we'll. Trade in native
wheat has not improved; flour Is rather
cheaper; other articles are not altered in
prices. Foreign wheats are inanimate and
unimprOved; trade in Liverpool is dull; white
wheats are weaker; flour Is unchanged. Car
goes of wheat of the coast have not i'm
proved: there were Il arrivals and sales, )
Californian. CargOes on passage and for
shipment are lifeless. There is nothing doing
in American red winter wheat. The sales Of
English wheat during the past week were %.
Isl quarters at BIS Sd per quarter, against 3d.
1875 quarters at Ais per quarter during the cor
responding week of last year"
