Whe.»t is now worth not far from a dollar a bushel in this market. 

 It is a fraction le^s. owiiifr, in pait, lo the ciiciiiiisiance that our 

 millers have a" uiucli on hand as they can giind before the clo.sp of 

 navigation. It is deemed unsafe to jiav a hiirli price lor grain the 

 flour of which mast be kept over or seet to Boston by railway. VVe 

 liave examined all accounts from abroad withcaie, not only the 

 newspapers, but the agricultural and quarterly journals ; and have 

 eome lo tiie opinion that tlie changes arc in favor of a price above, 

 rather thin 6e/ow, a dollar a bushel the cumiiig winter. We clip 

 the following from the .^lark Lane (London) Express of the 29th ult: 

 " By the otficial account just published, it appears that the stocks 

 of Grain, Flour, und Pulse, under lock in tlie United Kingdom, were 

 as fjllcw, on tlic 5lli inst. : 

 Wheat 444,408

The difference in the quantify of Wheat on hand is not very 

 great ; but it mast l)e borne in mind, that at t'lis period last .V car 

 one of the most abiind. lilt crops galhertd for years had just been 

 secured, whereas at present a pro;)ortion of the harvest is still 

 abroad, and that part saved is of decidedly inferior qu dity, besides 

 being deficient in quantity to the acre. W'hat might then "have been 

 considered a gooil stock cannot now be regarded as such, anil unless 

 the reports of the indifterence of the yield are greatlj" f .vaggerat-. d, 

 and the failure in the Potatoe crop proves much less extensive than 

 it is r ^presented to be, we shall unquestionably require an extensive 

 importation from aliroad." 



From the Mirk Lane E.ici)ress, Oct. G. 



In the northern and eastern parts of the kingdom there is stdl a 

 <,'0 111 deal of g ain i;i ihe fields ; and as the weather seems to have 

 been quite as niisettl.'d there as with us, the coiiclusiun of the har- 

 vest must be still further delayed. The chances of the rem under 

 of cro,>s in the later districts being secured in even tolerable order 

 are, therefore, very sbif'.U.
