THE COUNTRY MARKETS•

HULL, MAY 22.
Met srs. Taylor and Bright's Circular States :
The as rivals of the past week have been on a very
mode rate
scale, and more firmness has been manifested in the trade...than
of late, without, however, any advance being quotable. or any
great: extent of business transacted. For to-day's mark et our
farm era brought a moderate show of wheat, which was taken
off slowly by the millers at about last week's priees. Bu t little
passiaig in foreign, and Is. less money taken to force business.
Barley unaltered; the demand for feeding very slow, and the
malting season near its close. Beans fully support our quota-
tions, with more inquiry for peas at late prices. There is now
on the market a fine parcel of the best white Indian cow, for
sale from ship. Only a moderate business passing in liash.r.4l,
and the bulk of the import goes direct to the crusher. !vain
sale of cake is just now very limited, and though stocks are un-
impor tent, purchases may be made on moderate terms. We
have at present on sale a fine parcel of thin oblong Arai !Juan
in barrels. Rapeseed unaltered in value, and only a single
parcel .on the market. Rape cakes dull and lower. 'With a
good. arrival of bones the market is fairly supported.
