THE COUNTRY MARKETS.

LtvEaroor., FEB. 14.—At yesterday's market the business
was again limited in every article of the grain trade. Tuesday's
quotations were continued, as holders were indisposed to make
any concession of consequence, nor is there the least change
to-day.
MANCHESTER, FEB. 14.—N0 material change has occurred
in the state of the trade during the week, a very inactive feeling
having continued to prevail, but without any disposition nn the
part of holders to relax in prices. Increased supplies of oats
and oatmeal from Ireland have been received at Liverpool and
Runcorn, but of other articles thence, or of any other produce
coastwise, the imports are very light. From abroad not a
single entry of wheat has been reported, the only arrivals con-
sisting of about 1,009 sacks of French and 400 barrels of Ame-
rican flour, and 4,000 quarters of Indian corn. At our market
this morning, with a very limited amount of business passing,
there was much disinclination manifested to give way in prices ;
still where sales occurred in either wheat or four the turn
must be noted slightly in favour of buyers. Oats and oatmeal
firmly supported the currency of this day se'nnight.
NOTTINGHAM, FEB. 14.—The supply et wheat at our
market to-day was less than on last Saturday, and the trade
was firm at the prices of that day. The supply of barley was
not large, but the maltsters got the price down Is per quarter.
Of oats there was a good show, without change in value.
New beans were rather dearer. _ _

At Woodbridge' wheat;asfirm, but barley was reduced ls.
At Bury both wheat and barley maintained their rates;
clover-reed was cheaper.
• At Stowmarket good wheat sold quite as dear ; inferior
samples were dull, but not cheaper.
On Thursday, at the great barley-market of Herts, Bishop's
Stortford, barley was Gd per quarter cheaper.
DUBLIN, FEB. 13 —We continue to have a small supply of
farmer's wheat with scarcely any prime quality, and we make a
reduction of 6d per barrel in our extreme quotations of Tuesday.
Superior samples of barley and oats• maintained their prices,
but ether descriptions met a dull sale, and lower rates were
submitted to.' Very little doing in foreign wheat, and Indian
corn dull without change in price.
DA LICBITH, FEB. 12.—The relative weight per four bushels
of the three prices of wheat were 18st 51b, 18st 01b, and 16st
111 b. Oats, 12st 131 b, 12st 41b, and lOst 81b. Barley, 16st 31b,

CORK, FEE. 13.
The supplies of native grain are small and continue to be
taken at full prices. Oats indeed are eagerly purchased at a
further advance of 4d per barrel on black—the receipts for the
week consist of 530 barrels of wheat, 808 of barley, and 4,883
of oats. The operations in the prepared and foreign market
have been very limited, prices, however, rule about the same.
We quote Mariano')le wheat 25s 6d to 26i ; Ghirka, 25s to
25s 64; Polish Odessa, .23s 6d to 24s 6d per barrel. The
flour trade is dull, but quotations are not lowered. Bakers are
in good stock, and unit their requirements again bring them
forward, we do not look for much animation in this article.
Indian corn has receded about 2s 6d per ton on the week, and
the active demand which hitherto began in this month has not
as yet manifested itself. Coarse and inferior flour seems gra-
dually being substituted for it. We write Gala'z, 71 ss;
Ibrail, 71; and Ancona, 6/ 15s per ton, with a small demand.

Golden-foated Majesty to the Governor-General's dis-
patch was delivered to Commodore Lambert, together
with a reply from the Ministers at Ave to the galleut
officer's own address. This latter contained expressions
of sorrow that any misunderstanding should have hap-
pened between the British and the Burmese through the
misconduct of the Governor of Rangoon—stating that
that functionary had been recalled to Ave, and that
the two Deputy-Governors were to conduct the duties

when matters would most probably be settled satisfac-

agent at Rangoon to protect our interests, or rather

on board the Fox frigate:—
" The scene on shorn at the wharf opposite the fri-
gate' when the letters were brought down,
was well
worth seeing, but requires a better pen than mine to
describe with full effect. There were armed men sta-
tioned on both sides of the road, as far as the eye could
reach, in the most grotesque and mixed uniforms. A
discharge of heavy guns was heard in the distance,
which we knew to be at the Governor's house, from the
position of the smoke, and also that they were intended
as a salute to the letter, moat probably at the moment of
its departure. It about 25 minutes after, three splendid
elephants wore observed coming towards the wharf, with
two or three people on each howdah, and eight golden
umbrellas. All the other wharfs along the river were
crowded with spectators. The elephants were brought
close to the wharf ewhen they knelt down and the riders
dismounted; after a short delay, three boats were seen
approaching the frigate in line, and in them officers of
different ranks, several of whom came on board, while
their boats shoved off to make room for the fourth boat,
bearing the letters, which were placed in the bows, to
prevent any one being in front of them, and shaded from
the sun by three golden umbrellas.'
" The forces ordered to assemble, at Roree, in Upper
Scinde, are all on their way. What the object of its as-
semblage can be is matter of conjecture. Ali Moored,
of Khyrpore, has not the least intention of opposing us,
and is encamped at Bores, awaiting the arrival of the
Commissioner to learn what it is all about, offering to
bring his contingent to operate with us, as be imagines
we aro bent on something. Mr. Frere left Kurachee on
the 29th of December, and Kotree for Rocco on the 10th.
General Manson, on whom the command of the force has
devolved, left Hyderabad on the same day for the same
destination. The Kurachee troops, under Brigadier
Stopford, 64th Foot, were encamped at Hyderabad,
awaiting orders to move upwards. The Meehan brigade
moved out of that city on the 3d, under Brigadier
Hewitt, and was to move down on Khyrpore, vid Baba-
wulpore and the Indus. The ruler of Herat is said to
have solicited our aid to prevent himself from being de-
posed by Dust Mabomed of Cebul, and that this is the
cause of the assemblage of troops in Upper Scinde, whence
they will proceed to Herat. This is extremely improba-
ble; we had enough of such folly in 1839 42, to prevent
eur embroiling ourselves again in Central Asia, un-
less ' destiny' is again at work urging ui on. The force
which will shortly be congregated at Rocco will be as
follows:—Iler Majesty's 64th Foot, Ist troop of Bom-
bay Horse Artillery, Ist company of Sappers and
Miners, Brett's Battery of Bombay Artillery, a company
of Bengal European Artillery, the 21 Scinde Horse, the
sth Bengal Irregular Cavalry, the Ist and 15th Bombay
and 12th and ,11. t Bengal Native Infantry--in
in all pro-
bably full 6,500 en The sioge train is also in prep:-
ration at Sukkur, which certainly gives some colouring
to the idea that we are about to proceed somewhere and
do something, but where and what are profound secrets.
Tho invalids of her Majesty's regiments from the Pon'
jsub and north-west reached Ilydera,bad by the Indus on
the Bth and 9th, and left on the 1011 for Kurachee,
where the Berenice and Auckland steamers await their
arrival to bring them on to Bombay. The troops
throuahout the country were healthy; the weather was
bitterly cold, ice being found
on the water every
morning.

" The weather at Bombay is now delightfully cold, and
