I'roapocU now hooiu poor for tho next harvest, but it is not too late for rains to como and bring tho wheat flolds for wml ho uh to insure a fair yield. Within ton days Uritish markets show a decline of -a in California cargoes near duo and 1b (M for prompt aldp mout. This equals u deeliuo of fio per cental for spot wheat in Liverpool ; 9 eta. per cental for cargoes nearly duo and 7 1-5 on prompt shipments. No cause is given for such a decline save that, tho rise was not justified by cir cumstances. A largo quantity la afloat, lu excess of lost year groatly, and that had its iulluenco, no doubt, in de pressing prices. Quotations are $1.39$ to $1,400 for valley ami corresponding for custom.
