European Grain Markot.
London. April 2. Tho Mark Lane I'xnrcsi
says: Consldurablo rain has lallon tho past
wcok,andthowcathor has boon unravorablo
for agricultural labor. Tho tomporattiro,
liowovor, 1ms boon moro equal than of lato,
and pusturos havo boon bouolltod by warm
sliowors, which havo dono no harm to tho
growing plants. Somo jirogross has been
mado with sowing and planting, but dry
woathor Is much noodod to bring land into
mutable order barloy sowing. A mnjorlty of
tho country markots havo boon scantily sup
pliod with Kngllsh wheat. This shortnoss
of tho supply will probably bo notlcoablo
.somo tlmi), ospoclally as a strongor tono and
advancing prices at .Mark l.ano will causn
lioldorH to becomo caroloss of selling. A
markod altorntion has takou piano In tho
local trado, and a heavy demand has boon
oxporlencod for whoat in all positions, at an
mlvaneoof KiN porijliartor. Tho tlmo has
now arrlvod when buyors cannot shut tholr
oyos to tho fact that our romilromonts bo
tweou this and harvest will bo groator than
oaii bo mot with tho available suppllos, as
long as Imports continue on tholr prcsont
limltod scale, whllo at tho same tlmo no
doubt can bo ontortalnod that tho stonily con
sumption which has Iwon going on, has so
reduced granary stocks that higher prlcosfor
whoat, opelnlly red, will probably provall
tat alio. ! t - llkll 'Pltll aifAllllHl

strength nf trado may bo attributed to a
hoalthy action of consumption against sup
pllos unsupported as It Is cither by specula
tion, enterprise or political uuoaslnniis, Up
to 'ho proM'iit deficiencies of supply havo
boon mado out of grauarlos stocks, but tho
Kilnt Is now reached in depletion of such
stocks throughout tho country which com
pels holders to ask themselvos If thoy aro
Justified In parting with wheat at present
price, there lining no Immodlato prospect
before them of Incroasod supplies to meet
tho steady requirements, in such situation
wo turn Instinctively to Ainorlcau Imports
into London iroin Atianuu pons, which tor
the week past havo been Insignificant, and
last week were nothing, whllo shipments
thenco wero meagre. Tho conviction forces
llsolf upon us (hat America has not a sur
plus to moot our requirements; Hussia may
hond us wheat as soon as navigation allows
Us transit from tho interior, but tlioro aro
grounds for believing sho Is tumble to sup
ply moro than tho usual quota. Nolthor Is
much to bo o.x pool oil from Australia and
Chill, where tho crops aro very dollclont.
California and India may bo rolled on
for while whoat, but tho oaso with
which supplies al ready como forward havo
been absorbed leads to tho conclusion
tlialovory quarter that may roach us will
bo roipilroil. Tho noteworthy feature of
trado has boon thoal)Knco of sooulatlon.
