The Corn market continues firm: and the fine
weather which prevailed last week at the sailing of

heavy falls of ran the market, in the early part of
the present week. acquired additional iirmness, and
continues so, with slight drawback, at the present
time Large quantities of Flour are daily arriving
from the United States and Canada and from the
nature of the advces recently sent the Allan
tic, the supaly from those quarters, there is every
reason to believe, will increase. From the cause,
at which we glanced our last publication, the i'm
port rate on Wheat has advanced to 1Ss-the result
of the inferior qualities thrown on the market.
The import duty on flour is now l0s l0d per bar
rel In some instances, recently, Irish flour has re-
cededls per sack, and Canadian Sd per barrel, in

amount, since Monday, to nearly 5000 barrels
The Cotton market, which was dull this day
week, at the sailing OF the Great Britain still con
tinues in an inactive state. The quotations on mcs
descriptions, except Sea Islands, have receded id
per lb., and at the time of writing, the market is
heavy, with downward tendency. The absorbing
feeling IN railway shares may have partially contri-
buted to this, and the rising price of provisions,
with the approach of winter also to be taken into
account. The Committee Of Brokers have declared
the price for the present week to be-Bowed, AID;

The rate of interest in England is rising, in conse-

The HARvEsr-The reports which have reached

the harvest in the north, not of character to
alay the excitement previously felt on the subject
