WORCESTER, (Saturday last )— A good demand for our 

 liops since the cotameiicement of the present year, and the 

 rrop ot 1858 is now wholly dispoeed of, nor do we recollect 

 .tuy instance during the last 40 years, however small the crop, 

 when our rairkct w.is so bare of stock. A fiw ISoS's and 

 IBST's are now all we have to offer, and the latter have ad- 

 vanced within the last fortnight full 63. to 83. per cwt. We 

 are afraid our plantation has been greatly reJuced by grubbing 

 since October last, and from the pieseut uufavourable appear- 

 ance of the youLg shoots, some planters are already antici- 

 pating a short crop. 



POTATO MARKETS. 



SOUTHWARK AVATERSIDE, Monday, April 25. 

 Since our last report the supplies coastwise and from fo- 

 reign ports, as well as by rail, have beeu heavy, and notwith- 

 standing the uugeuial weather wc- have had, the trade remains 

 in a very sluggish state for all except the finest samples ; for 

 common sorts there is scarcely any demand, and for such the 

 prices arc almost nominal. The following are this day's quo- 

 tations : —

BOROUGH AND SPITALFIELDS, Monday, April 25. 

 — Tne impor-s of Potatoes last v.eek were 182 tons fiom 

 Groiiingen, 72 do. froiu Cal.iis, 228 do. from Dunkirk, and 

 68 bags from Antwerp. Coastwise and by railway, full 

 average supplies are coining to hand. The best samples are 

 in fair re(iue3t, at full prices ; but other kinds rule heavy at 

 the late decline.
