Oats — The market has no animation, and but little business is being done for export ; though it the present dry wea her continues ",in the other colonies, we might possibly have a little inquin nefore the new crop g-ts into market.

Barl«y.— Nothing doing in it. Grabs Se'ris.— Advices from intercolonial markets i'ldiente low prices during the coming season, hs there have bewi heavy stocks hHd "ver from last vwi' ; consequently the demand at the opening ot the season will not" be so great as in former 3'ears.
