F*ight thousand five hundred quarters of Victorian wheat, June shipment, have been sold at 24a. The English wheat market has improved 6d, and the Continental and American are also improving. Tallow is unchanged. The lluapehu's factory-made butter averaged 86s per cwt. Melbourne, June 11. The report of the two delegates who were sent to India by the Victorian Government to investigate trade prospects is somewhat discouraging. It would be useless, they report, to attempt to introduce frozen meat into India, unless proper provision was made for cool storage. The demand for the best quality of mead is small, the principal business beiug done with the medium article. With regard to supplying the army, the delegates found that fresb meat can be obtained at much less cost locally than the frozen article. ,
