COUNTRY MARKETS•

BOSTON—MAncH 2.
At this market to-day we had a large attendance of
farmers and dealers, and a considerable supply of all sorts
of grain. Wheat met a slow inquiry, and to effect sales a
reduction of is per quarter had to be submitted to. In
barley and oats a steady business was transacted, at pre-
vious rates. The demand for beans and peas was less active
than of late : buyers had the turn in their favour. Wheat,
red, 42s to 475, white, 46s to 48s, extra 525; barley, 27e
to 32s ; oats, 15s to 20s ; beans, 32s to 38s ; peas, 29s to
34s per qr.

DERBY SMITHFIELD—XfAxeu 1.
The number of fat beasts to-dry was about the average,
the cptality generally was tolerably good, and all were
disposed of. There were but few sheep offered for sale,
which s•on found buyers. The number of fat and store
calves is increasing. Fat pigs more plentiful ; no alteration.
