The aggregate average price of wheat for the last six

weeks has de- clined to seventy-three shillings, the minimum price at which foreign wheat can be imported at the lowest duty. The average of the Iasi; week is seventy-tour shillings and one penny, being higher than the average of any of the four preceding -weeks. Should the weekly average be as high on Thursday next as that published to-day, the ports will continue open at the minimum duty ; but should the average be only one penny less, the duty of two shillings and eightpence per quarter will come into force.—Courier, Thursday.
