SYDNEY.

We take from the Sydney papers brought by the Queen of Perth, the following" intelligence of the latest state of the wool and grain markets.

Messrs. Mort and Co. held, to-day, their weekly produce sale. The ''"quantity of wool offered was small, and the prices realized, more particularly for the New Zealand wool, were satisfactory. The 31 bales sold brought the following prices:—Scoured, 2s. 5d.; fleece, 2s.ofd.j New Zealand fleece, Is. Bd.; ditto, lambs, Is. Bd.; ditto, locks, Is. l^d.; handwashed, Is. 9d. to Is. lOd.; grease, Is. If d.; locks, llf d. to Is. OJd.; mixed, 4Jd. to Is. 7^d. — Morning Herald, June 26. Flour and Gkain.—The quantity of colonial wheat received by the millers this week has been very trifling. Its prices average from 7s. to 9s. per bushel; 9s. has been given for Adelaide wheat.

Little business was done on Saturday. Some movement took place in flour, and we hear that £22 was refused for a parcel of fresh Chili. Erom Hobart Town we learn there had been a ■b very brisk demand for potatoes for this and the Adelaide Markets; and purchases had been made for delivery at £9 9s. per ton. We notice the arrival of a large parcel per Tasmania, which, together with 100 tons in from New Zealand will flatten this market. — Empire, June 29.
