COUNTRY MARKETS.

LiVERPOOL—JAN. 13.
The Corn Exchange this morning was slenderly attended
by buyers, and there was quite a lull in the trade as cow•
pared with the recent excitement. Though there was 11°
pressure to sell wheat and flour, a few holders submitted
to a reduction on last Tuesday's price of 3d. per bushel on
wheat, and 9d. to ls. per barrel on flour. Indian corn
nearly supported late rates. The business transacted in
oats, oatmeal, barley, beans, and peas, was of quite a re'
tail character.

WAKEFIELD—JAN. 13.
Our navigation continues impeded by the frost, and,
consequently, the fresh supply of grain is very small'
To-day the attendance of buyers is not numerous. Ne'W
wheat is generally held for an advance of 2s. per quarter
over the current rates of last Friday, but the sale is less
free than of late—the inquiry for old is extremely limited,
and it is difficult to realise any advance upon this article,
Fine barley is is. per quarter clearer. Beans steady 1,11,
value. Oats and shelling are each the turn dearer. Malt
Is held for more,money.
