COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.
MELBOURNE. The Argus of the 4th inst. reports for the previous day:— BreadstufFs are to a great extent neglected. Flout has been sold in trade parcels at L 9 as at the railway station, but though some bnstt«h»i» for shipment was reported at the of last week, the present commences ■without any new phase being presented, and sales even at the rate stated have been confined tosupplying trade requirements. « heat is quoted at 4a 4d to 4s 3d, and we believe about 14QO bags have been placed at onr Quotation. Arrivals from the country district show a further falling off in wheat, which figures at only 1,09« bags, while on the other band arrivals of Hour have mneh increased, being 8,339 bags, but, as we have already stated, a large parcel wa3 lately taken up for export. Feeding grains are very slow, and of oats are only made when business 13 forced. Quotations for feeding, common to fine, range from 23 Id to 2s 4d, and sales of milliner are reported at 2s sd. Maize has a trade demand at onr quotation of 3s 2d to 3d 3d for good old, and 3s 5d for good new. There is a fair enquiry, but supplies are short of requirements.
