THE COUNTRY MARKETS
WAKEFIELD, SEPT. 17.—There is a short supply of
wheat to-day, and the best descriptions of new are sold
readily at full prices, whilst inferior samples are rather
neglected; old is claiming more attention, and held
firmly. Oats and shelling are the turn lower. Barley
is offering more freely, and sells at our quotations.
Beans continue scarce.

NEWBURY, SEPT. 16.—T0-day's market has been
largely supplied with Wheat, a small proportion of
which was old, which met a good sale at full rates. The
finest selected parcels of new realised nearly late rates,
whilst secondary and inferior descriptions, of which the
bulk consisted, were quite a drug, and although offered
at fully 2s per quarter decline, much remained unsold.
In Spring corn we are but moderately supplied, and,
with a dull sale, we have no alteration to note in value.
LIVERPOOL, SEPT. 17.—Though the harvest may be
considered as mostly secured the very fine weather we
are now having exercises a certain degree of influence
on the corn trade, by causing the condition of what is
brought to market of the new crop to be better than was
anticipated, and, as well, curtailing the demand. Busi-
ness generally has been inactive this week, and at our
Corn Exchange this morning we had a small attendance
of buyers. There was no change observed in prices of
good quality of wheat and flour, and as regards choice
samples of American barrels of the latter they are ex-
ceedingly scarce. Other articles remain as quoted on
Tuesday last.
EXETER, SEPT. 17.—Cattle—The supply of cattle and
sheep, although large, was not so extensive as last week.
The attendance of dealers was tolerably numerous, and a
good stroke of business was done, Beef maintains the
recent advance in price, and the quotations for prime
quality were from 8s to 9s per score; inferior not much
in demand at from 7a to 7s 6d; cows and calves, 81 8a
to 121 12s; barreners, 4s 6d to 5s 6d per score; butchers'
calves, 5d to 51e1 per lb; sheep sold at about ast week's
quotations. For prime small wethere, .sid per lb; large
ditto, sd: ewes, 4i-d to 5d per lb; lamb, 6d—a small
supply. Pigs as last week. Pork Carcases—The sup-
ply was about the same as last week, and no alteration
in price—quotations varying from 6s 6d to 7s 9d per
score. Pannier—Turkeys, 5s 6d to 6s 6d; geese, 5s to
6s each; ducks, 4s to ss; fowls, 3s to 4s; pigeons, is 9d
per couple; partridges, 2s Gd to 3s per brace; roasters,
4s to 5s each; butter, lid to is per lb; eggs, 18 for a
shilling. Wool--The price remains firm, at Bid per lb.
Corn Exchange-Prices were about the same us last
week for wheat-6s to 6s 3d being about the range of
quotations for old. The price of new varied from 4s 9d
to 5s 6d per bushel; barley, 3s 6d to 3s 9d; oats, 2s to 2a
6d. Flour, 33s to 359 per sack.
LLANGENNI, SEPT. 16.—Wheat, 40s; barley, 265;
oats, 16s to 17s per quarter. Beef, 40 to sd; mutton,
51c1 to 6d; veal, 4d to 5d per lb. Fowls, ls 8d per couple;
fresh butter, 10d to 10id per lb; eggs, twelve for 6d.
Store pigs, 25s to 30s; small pigs, lOs to 12s each. The
market was very thinly attended, owing to the fair yes-
terday.
Drums, SEPT. 15.—New wheat, 13s to 145.; old
ditto, 13s 6d to 14s 6d per 1681bs; barley, 9s to 103 per
1471b5.; oats, 6s to 6s 9d per 1051bs. Butter in tubs, 8d
to 9d; ditto in pounds, lid to is; eggs, twelve for 6d.
Apples, is to 2s 6d per hundred; damsons, 2d per quart;
common black ditto, Id per quart.
WREXHAM, SEPT. 16.—Wheat 5s 6d to 58 9d for
prime dry samples; barley, 4s to 4s 4d much enquired
for; oats. 2s to 3s 2d per measure. Potatoes in large
supply, at 2s 4d to 2s 7d per measure of 9 Olbs. Com-
plaints still increase as to the great extent of the failure
of this valuable root. Ducks, 2s to 3s; fowls, Is 6d to
2s per couple. Butter, 10d to lld per lb. Plums in

THE CLOTHING MANUFACTURES.
ENGLISH WOOL, LEEDS, SEPT. 17.—Some kinds of
wool are very scarce and much inquired for, and all
kinds are lighter stock than in former years at this
season. Prices are firm, and have an upward tendency.
LIVERPOOL WOOL, SEPT. 16.—Business is steady
at late prices. The imports the past week have been
237 from Petersburg, 2 New York, 80 Gibraltar, 15
Egyptian, and 27 Naples.
TRADE OF LEEDS.—There was considerable briskness
and activity in the Cloth Halls both last Saturday and
Tuesday, and a better business was done. Cloths of
good marketable character were readily sold. Prices are
firm. Stocks continue low. We believe the mills in the
out-townships and adjacent manufacturing villages are
all well employed, doing a sound healthy trade both to
order and for the markets. There have been a few Scotch
and Irish buyers in the town during the week, and a few
houses that principally cultivate these branches of the
trade have been rather brisk, but on the whole business
hisbe alligrk now the height of
in the warehouses has-been rather quieter this week.
The shipping houses generally are doing less, the season

A over.nDoßwop r
At foricE
LEICESTER.—This
the season for the winter demand, all branches are very
active, more particularly the fancy hosiery branch
Stocks of yarns are accumulating in the spinners' hands,
who complain that whilst on the one hand they cannot
get the advance they require from the hosier, on the
other they cannot buy wools
.to go on with to obtain
prime cost at their present prices. If the present demand
continues' the hosier must purchase at thp advance, as
old stocks are nearly all cunsumed. Wools are firm,
and more business doing. Nolls and brokes are in great
request.
BRADFORD, SEPT. 16.—The trade this day has been
very much what it has been during the last few weeks.
There is a brisk demand for lower qualities of Coburga,
but finer qualities are less sought atter. We hear of no
alteration in worsted yarns and cotton warps.
TRADE OF MANCHESTER, SEPT. 16.—We have had
a very firm market, and a fair amount of business is
doing in both cotton yarn and cloth. The attempt made
on Tuesday to obtain the advance in price, in conse-
quence of the American advises to the effect that storms
and the worm bad injured the growing crops of cotton,
was not persevered in, and the result has been that
buyers have come rather more freely into the market.
In some descriptions of goods, in fact, more business
could not have been done, only because sellers were not
able to supply the goods in a reasonable time, and at
reasonable prices. Cop yarn for manufacturers is a
good deal inquired for, and fetches full prices. There
has been a fair demand also for export, and 20's to 30's
water twist for Germany are hardening in price. Some
of the spinners of repute of these yarns are under con-
tract for the whole of October, November, and Decem-
ber. For the Levant there is much business doing.
Printing cloths are very scarce, and the market fully
takes off the supply. In domestics and T cloths there is
a good deal doing, but manufacturers complain that it
has not been sufficient to enable them to command re-
munerative prices.
TRADE OF NOTTINGHAM.—It is satisfactory to state
that the cotton hose trade continues in rather a flourish-
ing condition. The drawer and pantaloon hands have in
general full employment. A considerable quantity of
warp silk gloves are being made; they are exquisitely
shaped in Worcestershire, and are now sown in that
county. The bobbin net trade, for good patterns and
superior net, is gradually, improving, but the slop trade
is evidently on the decline. The lace trade has been
