THE COUNTRY MARKETS.

LIVERPOOL, JAN. 31.—Not much passing to-day, but
a very healthy feeling pervades the trade.
MANCHESTER, JAN. 31.—The trade has continued to
exhibit an aspect of undiminished firmness throughout
the present week, and although rather less active than
previously, still for approved marks of flour a further
advance of 6d to Is per sack has been realised, whilst
oatmeal supported fully former terms. The arrivals
from all sources at Liverpool and Runcorn are on a very
moderate scale. At our market this morning there
was only a moderate amount of business transacted.
Nevertheless wheat must be noted Id to 2d per 70Ib,
oats ld per 451 b, and flour is per sack dearer than on
this day se'nnight. In other articles no change was
observable.
WORCESTER, JAN. 31.—Our market today was pretty
well attended by farmers and dealers, and prices were
well maintained for all descriptions of grain. English
white wheat may be quoted at from 5s 6d to 5s 10d per
621 b.; and red, 5s to 5s 6d. Malting barley, 3s 6d to
4s per bushel; and distilling qualities, from 3s 4d to
3s 6d. Old English beans, 4s 6d to 45 9d per bushel;
now, 4s; and foreign, 3s 6d to 4s per bushel. English
oats, oe 9d to 3s 6d per 391 b; and Irish, from 2s 8d to
3s 4d. Winter vetches, 4s per bushel. No alteration
in peas.
At Stourbridge market on Friday wheat was held
firmly for former prices. Barley in request, at fully is
per qr. for more money. Beans were firm at late rates.
Oats and peas were flat, but lower rates than those of
the previous market-day were not submitted to.
There was an average attendance at Stratford-on-
Avon market on Friday, but business was dull. White
wheat fetched 16s 6d, and red 15s 6d per bag of three
bushels for English. The barley trade was more active,
at an advance in price. Best malting sold at 32s per
quarter; other qualities about 28a to 30s. •
At Wolverhampton market the supply was large, and
sales being pressed, millers were able to obtain heat
at about the same rate as last week. White wheat, 5s 6d
to 5s 10d per bushel; and red, 5s 4d to 6s 6i per bushel.

quantity of business was done at an increased value of
Is to 2s, according to qualtity. The barley market was
at first rather inactive, but rallied, and a general clear-
ance was effected at fromn ts to 2s above last week's re-
port. Oats, beans, d other grain were tolerably in de-
mand, and maintainede fully the prices previously quoted.
Wheat, white, 47s to 525; red, 41s to 475; barley for
malting, 30s to 345; for! grinding,vvork.sop market 25s to

Wed-
nesday was very well attended. Wheat sold at from 461
to 538 6d; barley, from 30s to 345; oats, 18s to 235.
Very little was done in beans and peas. Yesterday at
Derby
a small business was passing in wheat,
at Is to 2s
per quarter advance. Barley was in better supply, and
ready of sales at 2s per quarter more money; otit•a ed to

market to-day; an advance of
Fine barley was is to 2a per quarter dearer. Oats and
beans maintained their value.
GLOCESTER, JAN. 31.—Our market continues exceed-
ingly firm, and with very short imports prices continue
on the rise, and some farmers are holding for a still
further advance in prices. English red wheat must be
quoted at 5s Oa per bushel, and white 5s 9d to 6s for
very superior qualities, though the dampness of the
weather cause them to be scarce. Foreign may be had
at 5s to 55 6d averag©•
In other grain there is a con-
tinned firmness.
At Cirencester the average price of wheat at last mar-
ket day was returned at Il 18s sd_ per quarter; barley,
117 a lad; oats,
11 os *I; and beans 119 s 2id. per

CORK, JAN. 30.
The arrivals of grai❑ tram abroad since our last have
been few. Those of home grain are only moderate, the
receipts for the week being—Wheat, 784 barrels at 185
to 21s per barrel; barley. 1,147 barrels at lls 4d to 12s
6d per barrel; oats, 5,54 i barrels at 9s to lOs 6d per
barrel. In the green market the value of each descrip-
tion has tended upwards, and the samples offering have
been taken readily at rather higher rates. In prepared
and foreign wheat we have only a moderate consumptive
business, but prices must be quoted 6d to is per barrel
higher, at which improvement holders are very firm•
But for the circumstances before referred te, wo should
have had very large sales to report. Barley continues to
improve in value. Iloiders of cats are very firm, and
the value of the article is fully maintained. We have
not, however, any transactions of any moment to re-
cord. We quote prices as in our last—viz., white, 115
to Ils 63; black, lOs 6d to 103 9d per barrel, free on
beard. In Flour we had a steady arid large consumptive
trade, at an advance of 6d per cwt on fine flour; the
advance asked last week to a similar extent, on coarse
flours, being also readily obtained. Indian corn must
be quoted 2s 6tl to 5s per ton dearer, at the same time
that any sales of this grain are moderate and limited in
the extreme, owing altogether to the causes already as-
signed. We quote the asking value of prime Galata, 71
5s to 717 s 6d per ton.
