The British Grain Trade.

LONDON, August 16.-The Mark Lane
Express, in its review of the British
grain trade during the past week, ssys
Unsettled weather has retarded har-
vesting, which will now be very late.
Wheat has rus.ed and widowed to an
extent greatly affecting the quality
and every thing points to deficient
wheat crop. English wheat is firmer
and prices are against buyers. The
sales OF English wheat during the past
week wera A, l20 quarters, at 1928 Cd,
against 1891 quarters at 33I Id duripg
the corresponding period OF last year.
The foreign wheat trade is insnimate;
the purchases are only Of retail ma
ture. Corn on the spot is against
buyers. Fourteen cargoes OF wheat
arrived. Three cavgoes were sold, in
Guiding one of California, at 33s Sd f.;
one was withdrawn and seven re-
NAMED. Trade forward is quiet; there
is desultory inquiry for California
which is momentsrily against buyers.
Today the market wss very firm but
quiet. Eugish wheat was Is dearer
aud foreign s. dearer. Flour was 3@8d
dearer and corn was Sd dearsr. Beans
and peas were steady. Barley was I'M
steady.
