THE COUNTRY MARKETS.

HULL, MAY 1.
Messrs. Taylor and Bright's circular statel
The past week thas certainly been the most inactive, f
garde the general business of this port, of any previous oae
this year. Exports of manufactured goods are swim%
afected through the blockade of the different German Parts
and from the same cause our imports of foreign grain are oe.
most limited scale, and will now fall off much more, as up to tire
30th ult neutral vessels were allowed to leave the ports caber,
they might be at the commencement of the blockade, our inqt•
mation lead us to believe that there is only amoderate quitotii•
on passage to this port. It may be going beyond the pro"to
of a trade circular, but we cannot refrain from expressing eot
unfeigned regret that the Government of the country does"
.•
at once, and actively interfere to prevent the sad consequenoo
which must accrue to every branch of our commercial interew
from the present state of affairs; such interference would_.,
effectual, and we doubt not as to its practicability. This tur4l,
ing's letters look less like peace than ever. During the wed
the grain trade has been most inactive ; notwithstanding steefe•
in warehouse and fresh arrivals being very small, they are of
the present beyond the necessities of millers, and the 94,
course avail themselves of this ; not many factors, are, bum,
ever, disposed to give way in foreign grain, and such (elk
cially wheat of first quality) is for the most part held it
of
prices of a fortnight ago. We had to day a small supply,f
wheat from our farmers, and a very quiet market, without st:b",
notable alteration upon last week's prices. In foreign
transactions were very limited, holders being equally disincbero
with buyers to alter their ideas, but there was certainly ttj
inquiry on the part of millers. Spring corn of all kinds a
deal neglected during the week as well as to-day. Linses°in
fully as dear, but cakes are easier to buy. Nothing neirn„,,rt
rapeseed, while rape cakes are the turn dearer. Bones snlir
late prices.
