THE COUNTRY MARKETS-
LIVERPOOIS, FEN. 21.—There is no active business passing
to-day, but there are symptoms of a better demand from the
interior. Prices fully maintained.
MANCHESTER, FEB. 21 . —The trade throughout the week
has continued to rule exceedingly inactive, few sales occurring
in any articles. The arrivals from all sources at Liverpool and
Runcorn are only to a moderate amount. Oar market this
morning was of a lifeless character, and although holders still
evinced much unwillingness to lower their pretensions, buyers
of wheat had the turn of prices in their favour. Flour met a
slow sale at the rates current on this day se'nnight. Oats
were rather easier to buy, but oatmeal remained steady is
value.
NOTTING/lA3I, FEB. 21.—A slight tendency downwards is
still manifested at most of our local markets, particularly with
regard to wheat and barley. Yesterday at Derby small
trade was passing in wheat at last week's rates for dry par-
cels ; inferior was is lower. Barley also ruled about le per
quarter lower. Other things as previously reported. heat,

At Bury the best wheat realised last week's rates. Barley
was Is to 2s per quarter lower.
At Woodbridge the trade for both wheat and barley wae
heavy, at a decline of Is.
On Thursday, at Stowmarket, the supply of wheat was
short, and maintained late rates. Barley was 2s per quarter
cheaper.
At Bungay, on the same day, the quotations for both Wheat
and barley were seduced is to 2s.
GLASGOW CATTLE MARKET, FEB. 19.—At our market

market was well supplied with good cattle, and prices to
the same as last week. Best ox beef, 435, current 40s to 00

DUBLIN, FEB. 20.—We had a small supply of t„r
wheat and of barley this day. There was rather a better
feeling in wheat, which moved off at Tuesday's price,. as /-3cl
did malting barley, but in grinding barley a reduction no ts•
per barrel was submitted to. There was a fair supply of a ;

a reduction of about 3d per barrel was generally '° s,„
Scarcely a transaction occurred in foreign wheat, with the er
ception of Egyptian, which was sold at a reduction of is
barrel. Very little doing in Indian corn, but we d°
change our last quotations.
CORK, FEB. 20. re•
We regret that we cannot report any appearance of the or
newal of activit yor briskness in the trade. We have verl
arrival from abroad to announce, nor do we expect anY cf
osta
sequence for some days yet. The receipts of home grain,
excepted, which are in fair quantity, are moderate, the 5,13,rv0.
for the week being:—Wheat, 472 brls at 19s 3d to 225 6cl Per
barrel ; barley, 647 brls at Ils to 12s 10d per barrel ;,'"di,
5,073 brls at 95 6d to Ils per barrel, The value of eae°oo §
scription of grain is fully maintained. Oats for seed Porlieig
are 4d per brl dearer. With short stocks of prime Or lt
wheat here, and the non-arrival of supplies from al pf
holders ure very firm. We quote Polish Odessa, 24s 6, rf
brl, indeed 25s is the price now asked. Barley, which s_o is•
scarce, continues to bring extreme rates. We have nor tor
actions of any importance to notice in oats, which seera
inclined to give way in value. We do not, however, alt and
quotations of last week. The flour trade is very dm" we
bakers purchase only in small qnantities. Prices ar',,,t,ised
changed. In Indian corn the business now passing is '-" rose
in the extreme, and the article exhibits this week astill frieler,
tendency to decline. In the early part of the week, h
ot c
some sales did take place.
