THE COUNTRY MARKETS.

DERBY, JULY 10.—The number and quality of fat beasts
to-day was decidedly good, and the attendance of town and
country buyers was equally large, but we decidedly thought
that fat things did not realise quite so much as on the preced-
ing market, yet all the beasts were not disposed of. The
supply of fat sheep was somewhat limited when compared to
some markets, yet the supply was more than equal to-the de-
mand. Fat lambs were plentiful, but the demand was flat;
fat pigs about the average ; and fat calves were a complete
drug. Beef, 5d to sid ; mutton, 41d to sd; lambs, 17s to
21s ; pigs, 8s 6d to tiis 9d per score. Rough fat, 3s 6d per
stone of 141bs. Hides, 11/411 per lb ; calf skins, '2d to 3%d
per lb.— Head of cattle on sale : —Beasts, 130 ; sheep and
lambs, 406 ; store calves, 50 ; fat calves, 80.
BIRMINGHAM, JULY 12.—At Gloucester market on the
7th, wheat maintained the currency of the previous week. At
Worcester, same day, an advance of fully is per quarter was
obtained on all descriptions. Barley in improved demand.
Oats unaltered in value. Beans rather higher. No transac-
tions reported in peas. During the present week, although
the weather has been as fine as possible for the growing crops,
we have had a free sale for wheat, with the turn in favour of
the seller. Very little doing in barley. Oats taken to a fair

quarters of Indian corn, constitute our foreign arrivals. Coast-
wise and from Ireland the supplies continue light, whilst only
about 134 quarters of wheat, 180 quartets of barley, 210
-quarters of beans, and 660 quarters of peas reached Grange.
mouth from abroad. The trade has been pretty lively for the
last eight days, and the inquiry for wheat included the better as
well as secondary descriptions, for which there was a
good demand, at rates exceeding those of last Wednesday.
Fair qualities of barrel and sack flour participated in a ready
sale, at a slight improvement; and, with the exception of Indian
corn, for which tke inquiry has slackened, the value of every
article ruled in favour of the seller. This day's market was
well attended by town and country buyers. Wheat met a fair
inquiry, but being held at an advance of 6d to Is per 2.101b5.,
its sale was not brisk. Flour Is. dearer per sack. Oats im-
proved 6d per 2641b5, and oatmeal 6d to Is per 28Ulbs in
value. Barley, rye, beans, and peas have to be written 6d
dearer per boll.
