WAKEFIELD, APRIL 27.—With average supplies we note
a slow trade, and wheat is taken sparingly at a decline of Is to
to 2s per quarter on the currency of Friday last. No material
change in barley. Oats end shelling are steadily held at late
prices. Beans and other articles as before. _

LIVERPOOL, Arnie. 27.—The arrivals frtm Ireland and
coastwise since Tuesday are quite unimportant. From the
United States we have received as much as 34,032 quarters of
Indian corn, 1,481 barrels of corn meal, and 6,023 barrels of
flour ; but from other foreign ports only 425 quarters of barley.
270 quarters of peas, and 300 sacks of flour. Our exports in
the same time comprise 1,225 quarters of wheat, 11,375 quar-
ters of Indian corn, 438 barrels of Indian corn meal, 3,378
barrels of flour, and small quantities of barley, beans, and sack
flour. The trade has been excessively quiet, and no feature
worthy of notice has presented itself. The weather has under-
gone a complete change, and is now as fine and seasonable as
could be desired. At this day's market there was a fair attend-
ance of town and country dealers, and a good business was
done in wheat and barrel flour, at the fail prices of Tuesday.
Oats and oatmeal met with a slow sale, without change in
value. Barley, beans, and peas were in fair request at our late
quotations. Indian corn moved off freely at a decline of Is
per quarter, and yellow Indian meal sold at 14e 6d per barrel.
EXETER, Aram 27.—Cattle.—We have had a large step!y
of beasts of all descriptions and conditions, with, for most arti-
cles, a heavy sale. Fat beef remains about the same price as
of late, some of the very best having made nearly 8.6 d ; but
beef of good quality, has sold for Bs. Cons and calves were
very plentiful and sold at a long difference in price ranging
from 61 to 14?. Good barreners were worth full 5s per score ;
the graziers generally complain that barreners are much too
high, considering the present price of fat beef. Steers sold at
about the same rate as last week-131 to 19! per pair. Year-
lings were from 4! 105 to 51 each. Butchers' calves, were very
plentiful, and sold at from 4d to 514 d per lb. A very large
supply of sheep, with but little demand. Prime wethers, sold
at 5d to 53/4d per lb. A lot of very large fat sheep, esti..
mated to weigh 321 b the quarter, were sold at 48s each. Store
hogs, 25s to 28s each. Lamb, 7d per lb. Pork Carcases..-A
large supply, and the market again declined in prices, ranging
from 6s 6d to 7s 64 per score. Pannier—Turke3s, Sc 6.1 to
8s each ; ducklings, 5s 6d to 6s 6d ; spring chicken, 3s to
4s 6d ; fowls, 3s 6d to 4s 6d ; galenas, Sc to 6s per coupe ;
leverets, 3s to 4s each ; butter, Is per lb; eggs, 20 for Is. Corn
—The business has not been large, the 'millers refusing to give
he price asked by the dealers. The same result may be noted
in foreign wheat, the prices obtained last week being asked in
vain. Best samples of English wheat have sold at from 6s to
659 d per bushel. Foreign, white, 50s to 51s per quarter ; red
45s to 47s (60 lbs to the bushel) • barley, 4s per bushel ; oats.
2s 4d to 2s 9d per bushel ; fine flour, 313 s to 33s per sack of
2, 0 lbs.

BRISTOL, Aram 26.—0 f English and foreign wheats the
supplies were good, but without any fresh arrivals here or et
Gloucester. There has throughout the week been a disinclina-
tion to get into stock, and with a consequent very languid de-
mand, the prices of English and foreign are about 25 per
quarter under the rates of this day se'nnight. Flour in mode-
rate request, at a decline of is per sack; malting and grinding
barley are both the turn dearer; and oats, black and white, are
at an improvement of 6d to is per quarter. In beans; peas,
&c., there was but little doing in the market. Wheat—Enofish'
new, 40s to 44s per imperial quarter; foreign white, 48s to 52s
per 4?Olbs. ; ditto red, fine qualities, 46s to 49s ; ditto, ordi'
nary qualities, 42s to 44s ; ditto hard, 37s to 40s. Barley--
English malting, 30s to 35s per imperial quarter ; English and
foreign grinding, 25s to 2t,s per 4001bs. Oats--Deron end
Welsh, 16s to 17s per imperial quarter; Irish, white 18s 6d to
20s 6d per 3201b5. ; Irish, black 16s to 173 Gd per imperial
quarter; foreign, none. Beans—English, 30s to 363 per its"
perial quarter; foreign ditto, 26s to 30s per 4301b5. Flour
English seconds,. 33s to 35s per sack; American, &c, sweets'
233 to 25s per barrel.

BIRMINGHAM, APRIL 26.—This week the weather has
been more mild andgenial. Millers having bought freely the last
fortnight, scarcely a transaction is reported in wheat or barley,
hut for oats and beans we have a fair sale, at fully the previous,
currency. At this day's market therp was a large supply 01
wheat from the farmers, and no progress could be made in gales
except by submitting to a reduction of Is to 2s per quarter.
Barley dull, and declined 6d to is per quarter. Oats and
beans maintained their value for all descriptions. For peas WI
had much less inquiry.
TEWKESBURY, APRIL 24.—Wheat, 2/ 8s 9,1 ; barleys
117 s 8d ; beans, Fl. 12s Bd.

Rurnix, Amu'. 23. —Wheat IBs 61 to 193 6d ; barley,
10s to Ifs; oats, 5s to 6s per hobbet; potatoes very few
shown ; fresh butter, 11 d per lb.
RYRL,, APRIL 24.—There was an animated demand for.
wheat; the upward movement in the price of the finer kinds
continues, which brought a further advance of 6tl per hobbet
of 168 lbs, making the price 183. There was very little life
in the barley trachl, and sales ware in favour of the buyer ; the
top price was 9s €d per 147 lbs. Beans and peas dull of sale)
at late rates. Oats were not in such great request as last
week, and the prim* realised was 5s 6d per 105 lbs. The clover..
seed trade was very quiet; a few parcels were shown to-day
without leading to sales of any consequence.
CHESTER CHEICSS FAlR.—Wednesday being one of the
new fairs, the supply was short, and a considerable portion of
it of inferior make. The demand from the manufacturing dis-
tricts was tolerably fresh. Prices ranged from 443 to 575.
per cwt. _

BRISTOL SUGAR. MARKET, APRIL 27.—The market hal
been inactive thin week, and prices are a shade in favour of
the buyers. In rum there been rather more business doing,
.
owing to importers again submitting to lower prices. Refine's
golds continue dell of sale.—Bristol _Mercury.
SALPORD CATTLE MARKET, APRIL 25.—We had only
moderate show of beasts at market, and of sheep a scanty one'
As buyers appear on the increase, and as that was the case
to-day, the full advance noted last week was readily made for
both beef and mutton' and the market may be said to hale
been cleared out of all middling, poor, and good stock.

barrens, 41 10s to 61; cart horses, 151 to 201; nags, 1-)1 to 154

off towards the close ; the millers and dealers being fur a
slight reduction, which was at length given way to:—Wheat,
17s 6d to 195 6d ; barley, les 6d to 1 ls; oats, 6s to is
