Importations of foreign wheat, in moderate quantities, are announced ;

end the trade was rather dull at the beginning of the week ; but yes- terday the market assumed a firm appearance. The London average is 82s. 8d. a quarter ; and the six weeks average, regulating duty, 78s. 8d. Good wheat, however, is sold at much higher prices, in several parts of the country. We know that, a few days ago, 90s. was paid in Essex for wheat not of superior quality.
