CANTERBURY PRODUCE REPORT. July 14th.

The business transacted during the week has been limited, aud calls for no special remark.

Wheat.— Milling quality stands very firm at last week's quotation. Any lots offering find a ready market. The Lurline has sailed with a large cargo of wheat for the Home market. •

Bahley.— There is no chauge to report,

Potatoes. — The market for potatoes is quiet, sellers not caring to accept the prices offered.
