THE COUNTRY MARKETS.
HULL, JUNE '26.
Messrs. Taylor and Bright's Circular states :—The im-
ports of the past week have been exceedingly moderate, and the
same cause operating as we noticed in our last circular, the
transactions have been limited, no cne feeling disposed to sell
from warehouse except at an advance beyond what buyers
are willing to comply with. The weather, though not hot and
forcing, has been seasonable, with et me nice rain yesterday.
At to-day's market, owing to yesterday's report of Mark-lane,
our farmers were asking a considerable advance upon last
we, k's rates ; millers were not disposed to give more than 3s
to 4s per quarter more money, so that the business was some-
thing checked. But little fresh foreign on sale, and the
transactions consequently limited, at an advance of 2s per qr.
Barley for grinding purposes goes off freely, and in some in-
stances a little advance is managed. Beans and Peas unaltered.
A parcel of white Indian corn on sale at 345, 4SOlbs. Very
I,ttle doing in linseed , and cur quotations are not altered. A
moderate business doing in cakes at lee rates, both for English
and foreign. Nothing to report in either Rapeseed or cake,

LIVERPOOL, JUNE 26.—There was a fair attendance of town
and country millers at to-day's market. Wheat sold at an ad-
vance of 3d per bushel. Flour was 6d to Is per barrel and 63
per sack dearer, with a toleraMe free market. Oats were 11/2d
per bushel dearer, but in oatmeal there was no improvement.
Full prices were paid for boiling beans and peas. Indian corn
was unaltered; yellow, before the close of the market, was 6d
per quarter lower; white is scarce.
LEEDS. JUNE 22.—The advance in the London markets
yesterday has not had its usual effects upon ours. The trade
has been dull to-day, and we do not quote wheat dearer, though
last week's prices are fully maintained. There is more doing
in all descriptions of spring corn, at rather better prices.
