THE COUNTRY MARKETS.

WAKEFIELD, JUNE 29 —We have moderate arrivals, and
but a thin attendance of buyers ; fine wheat is scarce, and
meets ready sale at lull prices. Factors at the commencement
asked an advance of Is to 2s per quarter, which checked the
demand, and the business done is at last week's currency. Good
oats are in request. We note no alteration in tae value o-
spring corn.

LivEnrooL, JUNE 29.—Our arrivals from Ireland and coast-
wise since Tuesday, have been so small as to be quite unworthy
of notice. Frum the United States and Europe we have re-
ceived fair supplies of wheat, Indian corn, and flour, and from
Egypt some large cargoes of beans. The exp,rts in the same
time, with the exception of moderate quantities of Indian corn
.
and flour are trifling. The trade has been quiet, owing Tat%
contir.ued fine weather, L.•-id Indian corn has been

Exchange.—Not mach doing to.day. Growers are asking for

been obtained in one or two instances ; the bulk of the tran-
sactions in English wheat of good quality has been at 6s 6tl
per bushel (warranted) ; Foreign wheat is Is to 2s per quarter
higher; red selling at 43s to 445, and white sold 48s to 52s per
quarter of sixty pounds to the bushel. Nothing doing in
barley, and not much in oats, but we notice no alteration in
last week's quotations. Fine flour 35s to 37s per sack of 2801bs.
BRISTOL, JUNE 28. -- the supplies •f English wheat at
our market to-day were very limited. English new white
brought from 49s to 48s per imperial quarter. There were
increased arrivals of foreign, ansl the demand for both English
and foreign, during the week, has been very good indeed at an
advance from Is to 2s per quarter. Foreign white brought
from 503 to 53s per 480ibs; foreign red, fine qualities, 46s to
48s; ditto, ditto, ordinary qualities 42s to 44s ; ditto, ditto,
hard, 38s to 40s. Barley was not much nought after at pre-
vious prices. English malting sold slowly at 27s to 30s per
imperial quarter; English and foreign grinding, 21s to 24s per
4001bs. In oats there was but little doing, yet the trade is
rather firmer than it was last week ; Devon and Welsh sold
at 17s and 18s per imperial quarter; Irish white, 19s to 21s
per 3iolbs ; Irish black, 16s 6d to 17s 6d per imperial quar-
ter. In beans there is no variation. English, 30s to 36s per
imperial quarter • foreign, 26s to 30s per 480Ibs. There was
a better sale for flour at an improvement of is per sack. Eng-
lish seconds fetching 32s to 34s per sack. American, &c.,
sweet, 24s to 25s per barrel. The arrivals during the week
have been—in the Jeune Insulaire, 442 quarters of barley; in
the Coxon, from Odessa, 2,100 quarters of wheat; in the
Reaper, from Bourgas, 1,346 quarters of wheat; in the Pollux,
from Odessa, 3,800 quarters ; in the Mauritius, from Alexan
dria, 3,200 quarters of barley ; in the Thomas, from Water-
ford, 338 barrels of black oats ; in the Triumph, from Kil-
rush, 1,000 quarters, and 1,e:00 barrels of oats ; in the Mary,
from Gloucester, 450 sacks of flour.
BIRMINGHAM, JUNE 28.—At Gloucester and Worcester
market good English and foreign wheat was Is to 2s per quar-
ter higher, but at the latter the trade ruled dull. Barley un-
altered in value, but with an improved sale for grinding qua-
lities. Oats sold slowly at former prices. Beans firm. Peas
taken in retail, at quite as much money. This week higher
prices have been demanded for wheat, and on the sales made
an advance of is to 2s per quarter has been realised, but the
weather being very fine, our millers generally bold off. Not
much doing in barley, but good grinding qualities are quite as
dear. Oats taken in retail at former rates. Beaus maintain
their value. No transactions reported in peas. At this day's
market, although the supply of Englich wheat was small, the
trade ruled dull, at an advance of Is per quarter. Barley un-
altered. For oats we had very little inquiry. Beans in fair
demand, and quite as dear. Peas were only taken in retail.
Bees Toe SUGAR MARKET, JUNE 29.—There has been a
very good demand here this week for all descriptions of raw
sugar, and the market has been daily nearly cleared off every
fresh lot brought forward ; the sales, however, are, not large,
owing to the indisposition of importers to sell before the new
scale of duties is in force. The refined market is steady.—
Bristol Mercury.
CHELTENHA3I, Jetssts 28.—A very fair demand for English
and Foreign wheat, at an anvanee of Is per quarter. Barley,
oats, &c., at last week's prices. Wheat was 41s to 51s; barley,
22s to 28s; and oats, 19s to 24s per quarter. Beans were

Moue JUNE 28.—A rather slack attendance at the market

bigh, and' very few samples of grain were exhibited for sale.

to 9s 6d; oats, 5s to 5s 6d per hobbet ; potatoes, Id per lb.
