THE COUNTRY MARKETS.
IPSWICH, FEB. 17.

Notwithstanding that the supply of barley was small, sales
were made at a reduction of 2s per qr. upon last week's prices.
The wheat trade ruled firm, and prices remain unaltered. The
growers seem inclined to hold off selling rather than submit to
any reduction. Beans and peas inquired for, and rather dearer.

HULL, FEB. 17.

Messrs. Taylor and Bright's Circular states the
exception of barley and oats, of which supply some articles
have come coastwise, principally from Scotland, the imports of
grain still continue light. She general dulness which pervades
interior markets has been felt here, though we are not able to
report much actual change in price. The bulk of our small
granaried stocks is in firm hands. We had for this day's market
a very fair supply of wheat from the farmers; the condition
was more or less affected by the late wet weather, and only the
few dry samples offering were taken off at about the prices of
last market day, in some instances a trifle lower. There is
rather more barley offering, both foreign and Scotch, than the
demand at the moment will take off; and in the few sales made
buyers obtained an advantage of is to 2s per quarter. Oats
maintain their value, as do also brans (of which our supply is
limited to Egyptian) ; and peas of dry quality are in request.
Linseed is in good snpply, and the market easier. Cakes are
♦ery firm, and English low in stock. A few fine foreign are on
the market. No transactions transpire in rapeseed, but cakes
are in better demand. No arrival of bones for business. Guano
more inquired for. A cargo of superior Saldanha (with excel-
lent analys;s) attracts attention.
