NEWBURY, AUG 9.—The quantity of wheat pitched
in to-day's market is large. The reported decline in
Mark•lane had a paralysing effect upon the trade here
to-day; and although we must rate a decline of 2s or 3s
per quarter, still a considerable quantity remains unsold.
In beans, oats, barley, and peas the quantity on offer is
small, yet fully equal to the demand, which is slack, at
unaltered rates.
LIVERPOOL, AUG. 10.—There was a fair attendance of
town and country millers at our market this morning.
Wheat and flour were both taken sparingly, and on the
former a decline of about Id per bushel was submitted to.
Tho inferior grades of flour were also 6d per barrel
cheaper. Oats and oatmeal both very dull. Beans and
peas remain as on Tuesday. Indian corn improved 6d
Fr quarter, and was in large demand, and the lowest
point seems to have been touched for the present.
BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, AUG. 10.—The transactions
since our last report continue on the same limited scale
as of late, but prices are steady. The refined market is
sluggish, particularly fer stove-dried goods, and prices
do not improve. Rum is quite neglected, and except for
good parcels there is no inquiry for this article.—Bristol
Mercury.
EXETER, AUG.lo.—Cattle Market.—There was about
an average supply of beasts, and a full one of sheep and
lamp,. The demand was, however, exceedingly dull,
more so than has been witnessed for many months. Fat
beef must not be quoted higher than 8s 9d per score for
the best. Cows and calves were hardly looked at, but
Cie few sold changed hands at prices ranging from 71. to
121. A pair of good fresh "meaty" barreners were sold
at about 5s per score, whilst rough ones were almost un-
saleable. A small lot of poor Irish heifers were driven
in—they might have been bought at 503 to 60s per head,
but at that price met no purchasers. Butchers' calves,
4d to sid per lb. The demand for sheep was also very
dull ; it was reported that good fat weathers were sold

Corn Exchange—Although many of the farmers are
busy harvesting, there has been no lack of samples,
which have not been cflered freely, the rather unsettled
weather this morning having produced some hesitation
among the growers, and chucked the downward tendency
of the market. There has been a very absurd story circa'
latitig, among the farmers, so absurd that it is hardly worth
noticing, except to show the groundless fear under which
they sometimes labour. It is that sundry Frenchmen
have been in the neighbourhood of Tutnes and Exeter,.
offsrieg to supply the millers with whatever quantity at
wheat they may n quire, fir the next twelvemonths, at
44 per bushel. Now French wheat is worth much more
than that at present, and i S the harvest does not appear
to be remarkably good in France, it is altogether absurd
to suppose that they caii furnish a bushel of corn at that;
price. The ta:msrs must not forget that France is a
very heavily taxed country, and that the burden of taxa"
tion their falls mainly on the land. But few millershosn
attended, and the business done has been of a trifling
description. A few parcels of the best English wheat
has sold et about 6s per bushel. Foreign wheat was on
offer at from 43s to 443 per quarter. Nothing doing la
bailey. English oats, 2s 10d per bushel; fine flour, 325
to 35s pi =r suck.
BRISTOL, AUG. 9.—The transactions in all kinds of
grain have been so limited, owing to the heavy fall in
prices at other markets, that quotations are completeli
nominal. Flour aas from is to 2s per sack lower. The
following are the quotations:—Wheat—English, new,
38s to 44s per imperial quarter; foreign white, 475 i°

BsalusiGnanr, Ana. 9.—During the present week, our
buyers have been paralyzed by the great tall in Mark'
lane; the few transactions reported in wheat are ate de'
cline of about 2s p r quarter. The retail sales of oath
barley, beans, and peas, were at previous rates. At
f
this day's market, the weather being fine, the prices a,
wheat were only nominal; the little which change
°
hands was at a reduction of 2s to 3s per quarter. Barleld
held for last week's prices. Oats in limited supply,
very few wanted. Beans maintained their value. Pas
less inquired for.

BEST DOGS FOR THE MOORS.—No species 0.-c

shooting, and in no sport does so much alloqh-05,

for the moors, is a well-bred pointer, not more thall, is
years old, which has Leen well tutored—y(4l%oer
years, "but a veteran in experience. The 6-00
is occasionally used with success, but we prefer „go
pointer. The latter has unquestionably the aclol3o',oo

wherein to wet his feet every half hour, ho will n"-will
able to undergo much fatigue. Some sportsnaelinve,
hunt a couple of mute spaniels for groose shooting 1n..,01
ference to any other team of dogs. Of course, ;00
this method is pursued, the birds are never pointealos
the shooter must ever be on the look-out, for the g not
is generally sprung very near to the gun. We 51 for
quite sure that a sportsman can be better degge Ati
grouse shooting than with a couple of spaniels at, et
old staunch pointer, unless he is a very dilatory shot,
startled when birds rise unexpectedly, and requires 0' it;
bird to be pointed. It is the power to bring doWnop•
good style bird after bird thus put up, that make: to
parent the difference between the good shot an" der
indifferent one. As long as birds are pointed u°o.

haps the best team of dogs for showing off sport oh
day, would be the three high- couraged pointers that rflior

circles, the one within the other—two of them 513eelt

BANGOR, AUGUST 9.—A terrific thunder 50J
lightning storm took place in this city between one of
two o'clock this morning, which has destroyed Prle elf
and life. The front of one house has been comPektestr
gutted by the electric fluid, every square of glass
and one life lost—l believe that of a lady on a We-ther,
trip. The inquest is now holding on the body. -,l,ll°laro
la:ly died from fright. A fine horse was awfully 'N-
and died; also a dog.
