CORN EXCHANGE, FRIDAY, SEPT. 15.--The weather threatened to be stormy
yesterday, the barometer fell, and we had some heavy drops of rain, but
it has since cleared up, and to-day is 10 degrees warmer and beautifully
clear, with the wind south east. In Ireland and Scotland there was a
good deal of rain on Sunday and Monday, which (we understand) stopped
the harvest work for the time, but we hope by this time they have it
fine again. The new English Wheat comes to hand softer and lighter than
at first; as usual after being stacked, the yield is much complained of,
besides that many of the stacks got so soaked by the heavy rains of the
21st and 23rd of August, that the condition of the Wheat is sadly
spoiled. The arrivals are moderate this week, except of Irish Oats,
several small parcels of which are of the new crop; there is also a
small parcel of new Scotch Barley in fine condition, and new Scotch
Oats, also good. Almost all the Wheat has been entered at the 14s. duty;
we believe it is over 300,000 qrs. New English Wheat is dull sale:
Foreign, on the other hand, is more inquired for, and not to be
purchased in any quantity except at 1s. advance. Barley is saleable in
retail at Monday's prices. Oats are again 6d. cheaper than on Monday,
except for very fine samples. The averages lead us to suppose that on
the 21st instant the duty on Foreign Wheat will rise to 16s. per qr.; on
Barley it will remain 6s.; on Oats 6s.; on Rye it will rise to 9s. 6d.;
on Beans it will remain 10s. 6d.; and on Peas, 9s. 6d.
LONDON AVERAGES.
For the week ending September 12.
