Prime dry samples of Wheat find a more ready sale, but there is no improvement in the prices. Barley is rather cheaper. Grey Peas are further declined 2s, per quarter. Oats find scarcely any buyers, and this article is rather cheaper. Ar a Sheriff's Dinner in the City, these two heroes were on the boards. The silliness and impudence that Mr. Canning showed occasion could be upon this equalled only by his meanness; but this now seems, with him and some of his colleagues, to be the "order of the day.'

The new parcels of Wheat come for the most part cold in hand, that our millers purchased dry samples of both old and new more freely, and an advance was obtained on such of 1s. to 2s. per qr., but the damp qualities sell very badly. Barley is abundant, and 2s. per quarter cheaper. Grey Peas are also very plentiful, and have suffered a further decline of 2s. to 3s. per quarter. Beans sell heavily, and are rather cheaper. There are so few boiling Peas that will break well, that this article obtains rather higher prices; but White Peas that will not break are cheaper.
