Mklboubnb, January 17.—Business in the new wheutcrop may now bo said to have fairly commenced, and sine) our last report Homo 50,000 ba(,'s on millers' and export account have bcon secured. Hnrvpstim? is progi-cisine. thongli somewhat interfered with this week by rain. Thp yields, on tho wholo, are larjjo, and a thirteon-bushel nvcrapo is now regarded as probable. AsmiminK that this expectation should bo realised, we shall have close on 200,000 tons of wheat, or its equivalent in tluur, available for export, and henco the qtie.stinii of tho disposal of our surplus is one of primary importance to wheat-growors. A brisk demand for new at 3s fid to 3s for millers' lots, nnd about os7d for shippers' parcels ; good now milling up to 3s (i.^ri. DNi;\, 0 miliary 13. —Wheat (free;. —As tho atinson protrn'sses it becomes increasiiiirly apparent that the yield in this colony will be a. very loner way short of that of Inst harvest, and it is'moru than probable that wo shall havo to import a very considerable quantity Inter on. Meanwhile new wheat is being readily taken at 3s Sd to 3s 9M per buslipj. Oats (free).—Our market has continued (inn since last writing, and although values .-'how little or no improvement, the demand has been well maintained. We quote best descriptions of feed at Is lid to 'Js per bushel, inferior sorts ruling proportionately. Now Zealand Hemp (free).—ln the absence of salon locally wo quote best quality hemp as iv.iminally worth up to £23 jier toil, Jjutter (duty Id per Hi.)— Our last quotations, viz., Sd for best factory-mado, nnd Sd for best dairymado still hold Rood, but the market at present is in somewhat short supply, and we should not be surprised to nee some improvement in values before the end of the current month.
