GRAIN AND PRODUCE.
The past week has been, by far, the warmest and driest of the season, and a pood night's rain would now do a great deal of good to the crops. Business confines very quiet, and transactions, generally, are of a trivial nature. Oood samples of milling wheat are taken up by millers at 4s 3d when offered, and medium quality at from 4s downwards. Flour continues to find a fair outlet at -SlO 10s to .£ll, according to brand. The slight depression in oats still exists, and until freight to London is more plentiful it is not likely any improvement will take place. Good milling samples are nominally quoted at Is 6d, and feeding sorts at Is 3d, but we have not heard of any transaction on which to base quotations. Very little barley has been offering, and that little not of the best. The only transactions that have been reported range from Is 9d to 2s 6d, but considerably more could easily bo obtained for malting lots. Butter continues to be quoted at 6d, and cheese at 31d to4d. Hams and bacon are moving off more freely at Bsd bars and 9d in cloth.
