THE COUNTRY MARKETS.

WAKEFIELD, JUNE 4.—This week we have again to note
small arrivals, but during the last few days several vessels have
reached Goole, and there is a fair display of samples. The con-
tinued high relative value of wheat in the country markets
keep holders very firm and indisposed to press business, yet
with only a limited demand prices are the turn easier. Very
little barley offering, and little wanted. For oats and shelling
there is a poor sale. Beans being mere plentiful, are some-
what cheaper.

LIVERPOOL, JUNE 4.—ln consequence of the unfortunate
accident which occurred to our Corn Exchange last Tuesday,
the building was closed to-day. The a,semblage was in the
open air, tend only a moderate business was transacted. Prices
of grain and flour were considered to be rather easier than
on Tuesday, but no reduction of moment can be quoted.
GLASGOW, JUNE 3.—There have been some extensive
sales of wheat during the week to consumers, but on the
whole there has not been much activity in the trade. Prices
of both wheat and flour remain much the same. Barley
maintains its price, with a limited demand. Oats have hung
heavily on hand, with little change in value. Feeding beans

I are a shade lower. White peas, in consequence of small
stocks, are the turn in favour of the seller. Our stocks of
Indian corn are exhausted.
EXETER JUNE 4.—Cattle Illariset—There was a tolerable
supply of stock, and a good many lots changed hands. For
prime beef, 8s 3d was in some instances asked; but the range
of prices was from 7s 9d to Ss per score; yearling heifers, of
which there were few, sold at from 525• to 80s; barrenness
fetched from
,4s 6d to 5s per same. There was a moderate
supply of, butchers' 'calves, the prices ranging from 3d to 4d
per lb. The demand for rearing calves was pretty brisk—the
prices being from 30s to 45s each. Cows and calves varied in
price, from 8/. 8s to 141. Steers wore from 6/. to 101. Small
wether sheep, from 5d to 5p per lb; large ditto, 40 to sd;
ewes, 4d to sd; lamb, Ed per lb. Pigs—Store hogs were from
28s to 35s each; suckers, from 5s to 6s. Pork Carcases—The
supply was not large. and prices were about the same as last
week—ranging from 7s to 7s 9d per score. Pannier—Turkeys.

2801bs. Wool—There is no advance in price to-day—eight-
pence being the ruling figure.
BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, JUNK 4.—Refusers and grocers
have again been very free purchasers this week, and a large
amount of business has been transacted since our last, at rathr
better prices. Refined very firm, and in good demand. In
rum the sales are still unimportant.—Bristol Mercury.

Livanroor., WooL, JUNE 3.—A1l the finer classes of wool
are in active demand at the late advance. There is more in-
quiry for low wools, also at stiff rates, On Wednesday there
will be auction sales of 1,800 bales East India, '7OO Buenos
Ayres, with a few other kinds. Imports during the past
week have been 24 Italian, 30 Mogadore, 54 Lisbon, 34
Turkey, and 135 Buenos Ayres.
YORE, WooL, JUNE 3.—The supply of wool at our
market to-day was very short for the season, not above half
so much being shown as at the correspondiug market of last
year. The attendance of buyers was numerous, and prices ad-
vanced about 3d. per stone. Flog wool, 13s 6el to 14s 6d;
ewes and hogs 13s to 14s; Masham hogs lls to 12s per stone
of 16Ibs. All the wool shown was sold at the above prices.
TRADE OF LEEDS.—We had about an average market on
Saturday last. Being " holiday" on Tuesday, the market as
usual ruled &Ai_ prices are fir., with rather an upward ten-
dency, in consequence of the heavy advance In the price of
wool at the London sales ; but the manufacturers • complain
much of low profits, and althongh the stocks in their hands are
lighter than usual, they are little inclined to augment produc-
tion at the present price of wool. Few buyers have visited the
town since this day week, and consequently business has been
dull in the warehouses, but the foreign houses are beooming
more active.
TRADE OF LEICESTER.—The home demand for the present
continues dull for the season, but the workmen are well em-
ployed. In consequence of the rise in worsted yarns, several
large houses have entered into contracts with • the manufac-
turers for the supply of their autumn goods, believing the
market safe for the season. The shipping orders for America,
though not large, are now in active operation, and add their
stimulus to employment. The worsted spinners are more
fully employed, though the prices obtained are not remune-
rative at the present cost of wool. There is but little doing in
the wool market, and prices are still tending upwards. The
advances recently obtained at the late colonial sales have their
effect upon the English market, which added to the present
easy state of the money market, combine to make capitalists
consider wools a safe investure.
BRADFORD, JUNE 3. Very little Colonial wool has come
into this town from the present sales, and it is quite uncertain
how far the advanced prices with which they commenced will
be sustained. A brisk business is done in nods and brokes. A
small advance has been obtained for yarns, but all that can be
said about piece goods is that they sell freely at old prices, and
where merchants are compelled to buy they are in some cases
giving a little more.

performances are always distinguished by a high order o"

former. Ho also introducrid Mozart's pianoforte quartets
No. 1 in E flit, and Macfarren's quintett in c;
minor, it:
which he was ably assisted by Messrs. Thirlwall, Webb,
Guest, and Severn. Mr. Thirlwall, who natailled the
part of the violin in these, performances, played
with
vigour and precision, and with his usual breadth and
dignity of style. Mr. Webb, who played the tenor
very efficiently, is also especially deserving of nommen.
dation. The quintett of Macfarren is indeed a masterly
composition, full of the most beautiful points for the Se.
veral instruments, and we never heard it go so well. It
was played almost to perfection. the vocal portion of
the concert consisted of Mendelssohn s duotts " 0 wert
thou," and " Greeting." by the Misses Brougham,
Hatton's " Chioris," by Mr. Benson, which ViIIS encored,
and Mozart's " Vol the eapete," and Rode's " Air with
variations," by Miss Thirlwall. This young lady pos-
sesses a brilliant and rich contralto voice of great Power
and volume, and she sang with considerable vote and
execution, and Was much applauded. The rooms were
unusually crowded by a brilliant and thoroughly musical
audience, a most gratifying evidence of an increasing ;v_
preeiation of pure classical music.
