Remarks. —The late news from Europe is most important, 
and has had a great effect on the market, joshes have slightly 
advanced ; Quercitron Bark §4 per hhd.; Cotton 1 to lj cts. per 
11).; Flpur, $'1.0t)‘tb $1.50 per bbl.; Rye Flour, $1.00 per bbl.; 
Wheat and Rye correspondingly per bush.; Corn 10 to 15 cts. per 
bush.; Barley and .Oats from 5 to 6 cts.; Guano J ct. per lb. ; Oil 
Cake 25 cts. per 100 lbs.; Provisions from $1 to $.2 per bbl.; Lard 
1 ct. per lb. In Naval Stores there is a slight depression. 
It is now settled beyond a doubt that Great Britain and Ireland, 
France and part of Germany, are in great want of bread stuffs, 
and that the demand for these from America will be very large 
during the year. Prices, therefore, must rule high. This will 
make it very advantageous for our farmers, and place them in a 
more prosperous condition than they have been for the last ten 
years.

from Ansel Downs, E. S., Reviewer, John Brown, 2d, R. JL. Allen,
