been made on this crop by the weather. High as 

 the rates are, till barley comes in quantity we don't 

 see much chance for a great reduction, more es- 

 specially as the maize arriving will be wanted for 

 human food. The five week's supply of beans was 

 l,814qrs. English, 20,604 qrs. foreign, against 4,915 

 qrs. Enghsh 4,945 qrs. foreign in 1859. The total 

 imports in September last were 45,544 qrs. Of 

 peas the five weeks' imports into London were 

 2,267 qrs. Enghsh, 1,439 qrs. foreign, against 5,424 

 qrs. English, 1,457 qrs. foreign last year. The last 

 September imports were 18,511 qrs. 



Linseed also, like other articles of large con- 

 sumption, has seriously risen, say fully 5s. per qr., 

 and cakes 10s. per ton. The new crop in Russia 

 is not well spoken of ; so as we get near to winter 

 the difficulties of keeping stock increases. 



The seed trade has been calm, the extremely 

 low rates at which red cloverseed ruled last season 

 making buyers very cautious, although nearly all 

 hope is given up respecting a crop. Wet weather 

 has overtaken the gatherings in the South of 

 France, and rather varied prices there; but the fear 

 of getting seed not answering to sample has 

 checked speculation on this side, though there 

 have been offers of Bordeaux red at 60s. per cwt. 

 free on board : white is too dear and poor in quahty 

 for speculators. Trefoil though firm is poor in 

 quality. The new mustardseed has been so low 

 and damp that it has long hung on the market, 

 with very few sales, and even the best, notwith- 

 standing a poor crop, is cheaper. So are winter 

 tares from their softness and inferiority, but all 

 good dry one-year-old seed fit for sowing has been 

 held with increasing firmness. Indeed, we might 

 almost say the bulk of this extraordinary year's 

 harvest has been like salvage from a wreck.

 LONDON, Monday, Oct. 29. — During the past week the 

 arrivals coastwise and by rail have been limited, but the wea-

ENGLISH WOOL MARKETS. 

 LONDON, Monday, Oct. 29.— Since our last report, 

 owing chiefly to the dull advices from the manufacturing dis- 

 tricts, very little disposition has been shown to purchase any 

 kind of English wool. There are, however, several rather 

 large foreign orders on hand, hence holders contiuue very firm, 

 and prices generally are well supported. The supply of wool 

 on offer is very small.
