NEWBURY, SEPT. The quantity of Wheat on
offer to.day is only moderate, and principally composed
of the new crop. The demand is rather slow, and late
rates barely supported; some quantity remaining over
unsold. Barley but little on offer; our maltsters not
generally having commenced, the demand is very slow,
and for malting but little inquiry, the finest malting
being held at 28s to 30s per quarter. Beans, peas, and
oats, short supply and slow sale, at late rates.
LIVERPOOL, SEPT. 28.—With a continuance of unfa-
vourable winds our arrivals from Ireland and coastwise,
as well as from abroad, are exceedingly light; our ex-
ports during the same time being equally restricted. The
trade remains quiet, but in the few retail sales effected
previous rates have been supported. Indian corn is held
firmly at full prices. At this day's market there was a
thin attendance of the trade. Wheat and flour met an
exceedingly slow sale, at prices rather in favour of
buyers. New Irish wheat neglected, although offered at
a reduction of Id to 2d per 701 b. Indian corn in slow
request, and yellow must be quoted 6d per 48C1b lowtr,
but fine white, being scarce, commanded rather more
money. In other articles but few transactions took place,
and prices remain without change.
ItrroN, SEPT. 27.—We had an extensite supply at
this day's market. Wheat a t a decline of 2s r quarter
on last week's price and in other grain no alteration.
White wheat 5s 9d to 6s 3d, red ditto 5s to 5.. 93, beans
4s 6d to 5s per bushel; barley 28s to 325; oats 17s to
23s per quarter.
SCARBOROUGH, SEPT. 27..--We are liberally supplied
with new wheat, and buyers try to purchase at loss
money, but cannot succeed to any extent. New barley
for malting finds buytrs; new oats are not offered in
abuudanee, and, pima are well maintained. Salo for

flour heavy, as buyers are holding back for lower prices.
New wheat 53 9/1 to 64, old ditto 6; 31 per five &tones;
malting barley 26a to 273, grinding barley 243 to 25s
per qr of 32 stones ; new oats 8d to 9d, old ditto 9d to
101 per stone; superfine flour 373 to 38; seconds ditto
32T3 to 333 per suck of 20 st,;nes. '

KNARESBOROUGH, SEPT. 26.—The market was mode-
rattly supplied with all kinds of grain, and priCes a
.shade lower, with little business doing. Wheat 5s 61
to 94 3d, beans 4s 61 to 5s per bushel, barley 263 to 30s,
oats 193 to 224 per squatter.
EXETER, SEPT. 28.—Cattle Market.—There was an
average supply of boasts, and a large one of sheep
driven in. -Fat beef was rather less worth than last
week; Inuf, of very good quality, sold at 83 per score,
and 8a 61 was the highest price given for the best.
)Gocd fresh barreners were worth 6s 6d per score, but
poor ones were a very drug sale at any price. About
20 poor liish heirers and steers were driven in, for
which prices from 504 to 808 each 'were asked. A few
North Devon yearlings were on sale at from 3110 s to
41 103 vita. 13utchers' calves, 5d per lb. A great num-
i
her of sheep were driven n—one jr)bb7r having upwards
of 300. Fat ew..s were 4d to 4il per lo ; wethers 41 I
to 4i-d, and in a few instances SJ. Store wethers, 3Os
to 34.; each. P,:rk carcases-1 he supply was very
much less than that of last week; .but little more than
a third; prices nevertheless were but little affected, the
rise being only about 2d per score. Qaotatioes viried
from 7s to 88 6,1 per score. Pannier—Turkeys, 5s to
'64; geese, 5s to 7s 6d each; ducks, 33 3d to 54;
foe's, 2,6 d to 3s 6d ; -partridges, 2s 6d to 2s 91;
.mbeits, Is 6d to is 9d per couple; roasters, 3s 6il to 53
each; hares. 2s 6t.1 to 3s; butter lld to is per ib; eggs,
16 to 18 for ls; politoes. 8d per score; turnips 5d to
6d ditto. The supply of Michaelmas geese was very
heavy. bat, as will be seen, they sold at a high price.
Corn Exchange—We have but little alteration to notice
to-day, nor has there been a large stroke of business
done, up to the time of our going to press. For good
samples of warranted English wheat, 5s 3d per bushel
has been obtained, and our farmers have had the market
pretty much to themselves, there being only a few sam-
ples of red French wheat on offer, at 39s to 40s the
quarter; in malting barley scarcely anything is doing,
prices must be quoted 3s 6d to 3s 9d per bushel. Oats
are rather cheaper, new selling at 13 10d to 2s per bushel,
and old at 2s 5d ditto. Fine flour 30s to 31s-per sack
of 280:1)5. tre.stern

RUTHIN, SEPT. 24.—The market was rather thin to-
day, and tu,iness slack, with prices very little altered
since our last quotations. Mt-at, 14s to 14s 6J; barb y,
83 to 9s; oats, 5s to 6s per hobbet.

WnExitAx CHEESE FAlR.—This fair was held on
Tuesday last, the 25th instant. The quantity pitched
we* somewhat lsrger than usual, and on the whole of
very good quality. The prices were fr+•m 40s t,) 50s for
good usetul dairies, while those of finer quality took
better pri, ea, and much business was transacted. There
was not the least demand for skims.

RHYL, St. PT. 25.—Considerable dullness was mani-
fested in our wheat market to-day. The few sales t ffected
went off at 15s per hobbet of 1681 b. Barley was nominal.
Oats a shade lower, and beans without alteration.

GREAT SOUTHERN AND WESTERN.--The follow.
ing appears in the Cork Constitutio3:—" The wcrks
c ensequent on the boring of the tunnel from Spring-
lane to the Glenenire road are suspended, all the hands
engaged on this portion of the works having been dis-
charged on Saturday evening. No further reason for
this proceeding is given than that the directors are
desir _ms, for a couple of years, to test the trsffic entering
and leaving the city by the temporary station at Black-
pool, before they proceed further with the expeninve
works consequent on opening the tunnel, and erecting
a permanent station on Penrose's-marsh, adjoining the
river Lee. It is said that the line will he opened to
Blackpool on the 15th of next month, when the direc-
tors propose giving a ball and supper at the Corn Ex-
change to fifteen hundred. It is understood that his
Excellency the Lord-Lieutenant and the Countess of
Clarendon will accompany the directors from Dublin
on the occasion. and honour the ball with their pre-
sence." The Cork Reporter says:—"ln reference to
the above paragraph, we regret to learn that the
c.tuse assigned by the Great Southern and Western
Il iilway Company, for the stoppage of the works
at the tunnel, is—what they term the vexatious
opposition they have received at the hands of the Wide.
street Board, in claiming a roadway directly through the
rail ss ay terminus. Surely some means of arranging this
matter could be arrived at by arbritration, so as not to
have so many hundred individuals as were employed
turned adrift, and the completion of the line, which will
be of such importance to Cork, prev.nted."

THE EPIDEMIC.—We are happy to announce that
during the past week the mortality in this city (Salis-
bury) has not averaged one per day. The trade of the
ci y is reviving, and increased confidence is manifested
by many timid persons, who took flight in the earlier
stages of the disease, reappearing among us. In the
neighbourhood things are also hems.; and it is confi-
dently hoped that in this district, at least, we have seen
the worst, if not the last, of this terrible scourge.--
lisbury Herald.
Life is a warfare of conflicting duties and opposing
principles—a choice of evils, or a choice of goods. It is
the business of a wise man to divide not between the
nearest and the most distant, but between the greater
and the lesser obligation.—Eliza Cook's JOll7 nal.
[ADVERTISEMENT.]—A certified Cure of Scrofula
by Holloway's Ointment and Pills.—The following certificate
from Mr- Alcorn, of Jerry's Plains, New South Wales, was
forwarded to Professor Holloway by Mr. Pinkey, ehemist, of
the same place. " This is to certify that my daughter, aged
seven years, was afflicted with scrofula for three years, and that,
after she had been attended by several respectable practitioners,
without success, I was induced to try Holloway's Ointment
and Pills, which remedies in about three months completely
cured har, and she is now in the best of health. This ran be
verified by various persons in this vicinity, where I have re ided
for twenty-two years. (Signed) R. Alcorn. Jan. 1, 1849."
