Letter from London y April 23. 



* We had a good fiipply of wheat to day ; but tlic country markets 

 being- imperfe6lly furniflied, occalioncd an increafcd dcnnand. Barley 

 haji advanced untliin thcfe few days fully 2S. per quarter, and beans are 

 purchafed at a fimilar increafe of price. Our fapply of oats was mo- 

 derate, and fales were made freely, as will appear from the annexed 

 ilate. 



* During the laft three months, we have had an abundant fupply of 

 all kinds of grain, and prices have kept tolerably ft..'ady. A '•reat 

 many cargoes of foreign oats have been imported, and our arrivals from' 

 t!ie northwaj-d are nmnerous. The price of grafs feeds, which hr.d 

 been on the decline for two months pad, has lately advanced, efne- 

 cially thofe of fine quality. Hay, from the late cold and uupropilions 

 weather, has rifen 5 s. per load. — Some of the wheats on cold foils are 

 looking very yellow. 



* The Englilli tenantry do not relidi the property tax more than 

 their northern brethren. The rent is taken upon an average of the 

 feven preceding years; of courfe, i3o2 is the laft of the feries, and 

 on the average thereof the tax for 1803 is paid.
