THE COUNTRY MARKETS.

WAKEFIELD, MAY 28.—During the week the country
markets are reported very firm for wheat, with a tendency to
advanced prices; this, with our short supply here to-day,
causes more money to be asked, but we can only note the trade
slow at any improvement. Barley is now in little compass and
makes full prices. Oats and shelling are quite as dear, beans
as before.

with a fair sale. Rum is very quiet. —Bristol Mercury.
EXETER, MAY 28.—Cattle Market—The supply was abun-
dant, and although many lots changed hands, the general com-
plaint was that business was dull. Fat beef sold at from 7s 6d
to 8s per score—the latter figure being given for prime qua-
lity. Barreners were from 4, to 5s per score. Cows and
calves, from 81 8s to 12/ 12s; butchers' calves from 4d to 4d
per lb ; rearing calves (of which there were several hundred)
sold at from 25s to 31; steers were from 6/ 6s to 9/ 9s. Sheep
—Wethers, from bd to 51d; ewes, 40 to 5d per lb; lamb, 6d;
store pigs, 18s to 255; suckers, 4s to 6s each. Pork Carcases
he supply bas not been extensive and prices may be quoted

THE CLOTHING MANUFACTURES.
ENGLISH WOOL, LEEDS, MAY 23.—There has been a
moderate amount of sales of combing wools this week to supply
the current wants of the manufacturers, and prices are firm
at last week's rates. In clothing wools there is not any change.
LIVERPOOL WOOL, MAY k7.—Fine wools are much in-
quired for at advanced prices. Low wools steady at full rates.
1,500 bales East India, and 6,030 Buenos Ayres, will be sold
9th June. Imports the past week nil.
Yoaa: WooL, MAY 27.—The supply of wool at our market
this day was short, not more than 40 to 50 sheets having been
shown. The small skew may be attributed to the farmers
who hold their clips at an advanced price, which the jobbers
are not willing to accede to, and the market ruled most deci-
dedly lower.
THE TfiAiii OF Ltsns.—There has this week been rather
more business done both in the cloth-halls and by direct deli-
veries off the market days. More dispositions is to purchase
is evinced in consequence of the advance obtained for wool at
the present London sales, but no advance can be got on goods,
and the maufacturers complain of want of remuneration. About
an average amount of business has been done in the warehouses
during the week by the home trade, and although business is
much duller than usual amongst the shipping houses, some
little improvement has, nevertheless, taken place during the
last few weeks.
BRADFORD, MAY 27.—There was a larger amount of bu-
ness transacted than on the previous Thursday. An advance
in price was attempted on pieces and yarns, but we have not
heard that it was in any case obtained. If the position of
spinners and manufacturers was difficult before, what must it
be now that cotton warps and Australian wool have so decid-
edly advanced? If better prices cannot be obtained, looms
must stand.
TRADE or MANCHESTER, MAY 27.—The continued excite-
ment in the Liverpool market, from renewed speculative pur-
chases of cotton, consequent on the American advices on Mon-
day by the Niagara steamer, give but little hope of a steadier
and more prudent course of action until the effect of later ad-
.yicei here has been felt on the other side, and buyers of yarns
and of cloths have been rather more disposed to submit to the
_ advanc&consequent on this state of affairs than they were on
Tuesday. Spinners have'in some cases obtained a slight ad-
vance in price of yarns, although it was yielded with difficulty,
and there has been a fair amount of business. In 36-inch
printing cloths quotations may also be advanced Id per piece,
and though exporters buy with caution, their more pressing
orders, which could no longer be delayed, have given a per-
ceptible impetus to the market today. The principal busi-
ness, besides some buying for the home trade, was on India,
German, and United States account
