THE COUNTRY MARKETS.

MANCHESTER, JULY 3.—Throughout the week the
weather has been showery, with occasional high winds.
During the same period no material change has oc-
curred in the state of cur market; firmness has con-
tinued to characterize the flour trade, a steady, but by
no means bli:k, demand having been experienced for
fresh (nide p irceis on fully previous terms, whilst oat-
meal mived off rather more freely than of late. We
have again to notice fair arrivals of foreign wheat and
ludiau corn, together with a liberal supply of flour, but
with the exception of a moderate quantity of oalneal
from Ir,dri-id the receipts thence and coastwise at Liver-
pool at ,d Runcorn continue on a limited scale. At our
Corn Exchange this mornit:g onl) a moderate amount
of hu,iiiess was transact. d in the leading arlicie,s of the
trade, without variation frem the currency of this day
So'neigtiz.

6d to ss. No deicauil of consequence ror peas.
At Stourb'idge market on Friday the trade in wheat
was dull, and former prices were reluctantly paid by the
millers end factors. Barley continued firm at about the
prices of that day se'nuight. Oats firm at former rates.
Beans and peas were ot more value (13 per quarter) in
consequence ot the disease in the growing crop of the
former.

At Wolverhampton market there was a fair seasonable
supply of grain on sale, but millers and dealers only pur-
ehated in small quantities, and prices were hardly so
well maintained as at the previous market day. English
white wheat was worth from 5s 64 to 58 10d per 621 b,
and red 53 24 to 51 4d. Grinding barley in moderate
request at 27s to 28s per 3921 b. No demand for malting.

to 23e per 312tb; Irish about 204 to 21s.
At Kidderminster market on Thursday the sale for
whist was dull at the rates of last week. But little
barley, beans, or peas on offer.
GLOUCESTER, JULY 3.—The market was not so firm
as on this day week, the apprehension of a short crop
being ellayed by present flue weather. Millers would
not buy at present rates except in retail prices.
English red wheat is worth about 4s 9d to ss, and white
5i to 53 4d per bushel. Oats 21s to 23s per quarter for
English, and 19s to 21s for Irish, with a slow demand.

4s, and Egytian 3s 8d and 3s 104.
NOTTINGRAM, JULY 3.—Yesterday, at Derby, the

CORK, JULY 2.
The trade during the week has been characterised by
some little dulness, which has taken tho place of the
firmness and briskness manifested last reek. The ar-
rivals from ahead have been very trifling. The receiple
of home gran have fallen cff altogether, and are now
entirely unworthy of notice. The business passing in
sfourepirie ndwthheeamtsehles prettyaystaenmoderate. The trade, having
p
freely laet week, are noW,
h off; and the dull advices from the English side
baying affected the market, the transactions in all de-
scriptions of Wheat are limited, though we cannot quote
any alteration in prices. In eats ,there is literally no-
thing doing. Fur fine flour we experience a moderate
consumptive demand, et last week's prices. Conroe
Flour also meets as goad an inquiry as of late. The
trade in Indian corn ie dull, and the business passing
restricted to the supply of the more immediate wants of
purchasers, while prices are scarcely maintained. We
quote the extreme value of gulatz 81. per ton.
