THE COUN

,TS.

IPSWICR, APRIL 27.
Our market continues very scantily supplied with wheat,
The trade was firm at an advance of is per qr. upon all sorts.
Of beans there were a few samples on sale ; these met ready
buyers at an advance, the present cold ungenial weather being
thought to be -prejudicial to the growth of all spring corn, as
well as feed, and rai Qua uch wanted everywhere.

HULL, APRIL 277
Messrs. Taylor and Bright's Circular states :—We con-
tinue without imports, with the exception of a single parcel of
barley, and the market has exhibited much tone and firmness
during the past week; the weather has been cold and dry,
with easterly winds predominating. Rain is
much
needed
for the pastures, and spring corn is being extensively used for
feeding purposes. which enables some advance on each article
to be realised. Oats, especially, are scarce, and in demand ;
and there is an extended sale for Egyptian beans at somewhat
aver late rates. There was only a moderate supply of wheat
from our farmers to-day, and best samples were held firmly at
2s per qr advance, and is per qr was generally acceded to by

LIVERPOOL, APRIL 27.—We have an almost unexampled
long period of continued droughty weather, now upwards of
two months, parching the pasture lands, laying a number of
farmers under strong contribution to find food and water for
their starving cattle, sheep, and lambs. The wheat plant is
looking vigorous and well, and no weather suits it so well as
dry. Spring sown corn and pulse will be affected if rain does
not come soon, but at present no injury of moment is spoken
of. The week's imports of grain and flour are moderate,
whilst there are good exports to Ireland and coastwise. There
has been an upward tendency in the price of oats, oatmeal,
beans, peas, barley, and Indian corn, during the week. Wheat
and flour at full prices. At this morning's market we had a
healthy demand for both local and distant consumption, and
some purchases of American flour were made on speculation.
The advance oh last Tuesday's quotations was general, viz., id
per bushel on wheat, 61 per barrel and sack on flour, Id per
bushel on oats, 9d to is per load on oatmeal, Id per bushel on
barley, Is per quarter each on beans and peas, and is to is 6d
per quarter on Indian corn. There is no indication of a change
to moist weather.
