Flour. — The imports into the CJuited Kingdom during the week 

 closing September 18 amounted to 114,403 cwt. The following week in 

 Mark Lane opened upon a good supply of British flour, but business 

 was at a stand-still, and holders were disposed to recede from previous 

 quotations. The flour movement was heavy and languid. In Mark 

 Lane the best town households brought 43s. to 47s. per 280 pounds ; 

 best country households, 37s. to 40s. ; Norfolk and Suflblk, 34s. to 36s. ; 

 American, 24s. to 29s. per barrel. At Liverpool, English and Irish su- 

 perfines brought 37s. to 39s. per 280 pounds ', ditto, extra, 40s. to 42s. ; 

 French, 40s. to 48s. Cnl. ; Trieste, 50s. to 62s. -, Chilian, 36s. to 39s. ; Cali- 

 fornian, 40s. to 42s. ; American, western and extra State, 25s. Qd. to 27s. 

 6d. per barrel ; Baltimore and Philadelphia, 25s. to 30s. 6d. ; Ohio and 

 extra, 28s. to 30s. 6d. ; Canadian and extra, 26s. 6d. to 31s. At Paris, 

 the range for consumption was 35s. 11^7. to 39s. 2d. per 280 pounds. 



Maize. — British imports of maize during September were quite un- 

 important. No advance upon previous low prices was noted. In Mark 

 Lane white was quoted at 80s. to 32s. per quarter, and yellow at 29s. to 

 31s. In Liverpool, American brought 29s. 3d. per 480 pounds for^mixed ;
