Itis certainly poss! bio that thero tas beents radical chango in the Dritish markets within a couple of days pust, however much some partics may doubt {t, and claim that private dis patches do not corroborate these wont by Veerbolm. ‘The trouble probably lies in tho great dimeulty expert onced in finding out the tons of the English markets: but there ia reason to fear that amficient cara {e not alwaya extreized in hunting out tho information that fa obtainable, It now appears that tho deliveries of wheat on ‘Wodarsday (in this clts) were ouly about two-thirds as greeat as stated, tit tho other third was put out yor terday, so that tho aggregate dellvory wan correctly re ported, though xpread over # little more time, Tt is delfored that the few February deals in wheat not set fled at the clots of thac month will bo aquared off atn{eabiy, without reaort to arbitration. ‘Tho leading produce markets wore generally firm yesterday, and come were quite atrong, under a good demand from all classce of operstorz, This wae capectally tho csse with provisions, The wwoather fine, iu the civla senso of the word, but not fa- vorable for country operations, tha iste storm being muccocded by a thayr, which will :miro up the country roads and again render them impassable, reducing the volumo of recelpta, Thare was very Uttle nows from the country seaterday, but somo letters were received ridiculing tno statement made a few days ago that tho farmera wero planting apeing wheat, 1t{s not probable that much has been done in that direction, though thero is no doubt that planting was begun ina few places, It in early enough yet, and the ground promiees lo be in good condition, unlesa tho weather ahon!d turn out to be mtich moro unfavorable than it as been thus far, In the dry-gooda market ito or no change wan observable, Tho movement, though gradually in- creasing, doca not como up to general oxpectations, ‘The domsnd for grocerios was better than during tho earlier days of the woek, and thore waaa more hope- fal fecting among tho trade, Coffees were recelving = good deal of atteution, ant holders were asking a $0 advance, Sugars, sirup, sud molasses were easy, Tce, spices, wlarch, soaps, etc, com- raratively, wero steady. ‘The += demand. for butter continues in excess of the rupply, and prices aro stronger all around.
