Strange that the, simultaneous ai-rival of several cargoes of flour should not affect the price of bread. If it were whisky or tea, there would be fluctuations in the market, but the bread market is monotonously uniform. Within the past few.'days a number of coasters have poured in cargoes of flour from contiguous ports, and yesterday the Mary Miller from Adelaide brought a contribution to our supplies, pretty closely approaching to 400 tons. Still past experience tells us that the price of bread will remain unaltered, unless some philanthropic baker, not of the high toned and very superior order, should decide upon giving the public the benefit of a favorable condition of the market.
