THE COUNTRY MARKETS.
--WAKEFIELD, Aram 5 —The market being held off 1
usu ti day c.uses a less attendance, and business is consequell
limited. The supplies are large of wheat and barley, a
moderate of other articles. There is no change to note in I
value of wheat. Barley is very difficult to dispose of, and
pr quarter lower. Oats declined id per stone, and shelling
per load. Beans without alteration.

EXETER, APRIL s.—Cattle—The number of stock drill
in was less than on several preceding weeks, probably in co;
sequence of the market being held out of its usual course.
fat bullocks especially the supply was small, and met with
tolerably ready sale, at 8s to 8s 6d per score. Cows and call'
were equal to the demand, and moved off slowly, at fret
8/ lOs to 131. Barreners were not much asked for, and indi
be quoted at from 45 9d to 5s per score. A few young steel,
were on sale at from 91 to 11/ each. Butchers' calves, 4d!
bid per lb. The supply of sheep was also small, but this et
not improve the sale, the demand being very dull ; a few prip
small wethers made 55e per lb, but the general price for
wethers and ewes was 5d per lb. Store sheep were also Ili
at lower rates ; a lot of store hogs, of weight and quality 0101
to what would in former years have sold for 30s each, vel
sold for 22s each. Pork Carcasses—The supply was about
pigs less than that of last week. Prices ranged from 7s 3d
tis per score. Pannier—A small supply : turkeys, 5s 6d too
each ; ducklings, 5s 6d to 7s per couple ; fowls, 3s 6d to 4s P
ditto; spring chickens, 33 6d to 4s ditto; galenas, 5s 6th
6s 6d per couple; leverets, 3s each; butter, Is 2d per Ib; eggi
20 for Is. Corn Exchange—There was not a very large 1 tendance of dealers in the market to-day, nor was thrfl, much anxiety to sell, and as a whole, the result is, that the
user
ket has been firmer than for some weeks, although we do!,
note much actual advance in price. The feeling is poll)
general that prices have seen their lowest, at least betvree2;
this and the next harvest, and there seems fair ground i°
Such a supposition. In the first place it is admitted 111 notwithstanding the deliveries by the growers for sev ,
months past have been less than the average, yet such t"
.
the deficient, harvest of last year, that the stocks on bad
now are supposed to be less than during any year at tb:
season for the last twenty years. Foreign corn is also
114,
selling in this country as low as at the ports from which!,
is shipped, so that the importers are serious losers, wb!,
American flour is actually cheaper at Liverpool than
New York. The importations from America have in feP
being insignificant for months past, showing conclusive! that Great Britain can never expect large supplies from t 1330
country at low prices. The large supplies of Wheat ,
flour introduced from near Continental ports, especially !role
France, have been the principal cause of the depressed gel
of the market here, and as it is well krown that France hi'
no stock on hand prior to the last harvest, it is reasonable,
suppose, that if order is maintained in that country trade V
revive, an increasing demand will be felt for food, and thi
French will be purchasers :n our market instead of selleet'
To day, English wheat has sold at from 5s 6d to 63 6d e

OEQUAY.---C 0 NSECRATION Or THE NEW CRUNCH.
—The consecration of the new church at Upton, tie
only creditable speeicat-n of ecclesiastical architecture in
Torquay, take place probably in the early part of
ext week. The sum for which the building committee
are responsible, and for which some of the resident gentry
hen• Katie become security, amounts now to about 3001.
Witb,,ut this guarant•e, thus voluntarily given, the con-
s. cration of the building would in all
probability have
been (Hayed many months. The collection at the
offertory on the tfay of consecration, will be applied to-
pur,hitsing an organ for the church.—Exeter
