THE Cc U N TIFV ItKETS,

LIVERPOOL, JUNE 23.—There have been good arrivals since
Tuesday of foreign wheat, flour, beans, and Indian corn, but
of British produce the supplies are still small. At yesterday's
market holders of both wheat and flour evinced much firmness,
and a moderate business was effected at the full currency of
Tae-day. Oats and oatmeal met a dull sale, but prices were
unchanged. There was a steady demand for barley, beans,
and peas at late rates. A fair quantity of Indian corn charged
hands, yellow at a decline of 6d per quarter, but fine white corn
being scarce, brought an advance of 6d per quarter. To-day
the trade is dull, and prices of all articles remain firm at the
quotations of yesterday.
111ANcitEsTra, JUNE 23.—Throughout the week a good
demand has been experienced for flour, and choice qualities of
fresh-made English have readily realised a further improve-
ment in prices. Oatmeal, on the contrary, has met less in-
quiry, and the previous currency was with difficulty supported.
The arrival of oats from Ireland, and of malt coastwise, at
Liverpool and Runcorn, are this week to a moderate amount
but trifling of other articles from those sources. From abroad
the imports comprise a liberal supply of wheat, beans, and In-
dian corn, with a fair quantity of barrel flour (in which is in-
cluded about 2,00) barrels of Canadian), the first to hand this
season, and a cargo or two of barley. At our market this
morning wheat advanced fully 2d per 701 b.

GLASGOW CATTLE MARKET, JUNE 21. E—At our market
to-day the numbers were—oxen, 356 ; sheep, 1,115 ; lambs,
2,004. There was a small supply of cattle, which caused
prices to rise considerably. Best ox beef 53s per cwt., mid-
dling from 45s to 506 per ditto, sinking the offal. The supply
of sheep was large, which caused a fall in price of 23 per
head from last week's prices. Best quality barely 6d per lb.
in the wool, clipped sheep 40 to 5d per lb., sinking the offal.
Owing to the number of lambs, which caused a dull sale,
lambs down from 2s to 2s 6d per head from last week's
prices. Prices varied from 5s to 16s per head, according to
quality.
Coax, JUNE 22.—We have to report several arrivals of,
grain laden vessels—principally maize—and these have had
the effect of depressing the market for this article, which
must be quoted fully 7s 6d to lOs per ton lower on the week.
Our supplies of home grain are so miserably insignificant as
not to be worth noticing. We have to report a firmer feeling
in prepared and foreign wheat, with but little business. The
tendency of oats is downwards, and we have no sales to re-
port. We have more firmness and animation in flour, and a
fair consumptive sale going on, without, however, any actual
change in prices. Coarse descriptions continue to be sought
after. Indian corn, owing to the recent arrivals, has become
a dull sale at a decline of 7s qd to 102 per ton, the business
doing, even at the reduction, being very restricted. We
quote the extreme asany price of prime Galatz 8/. 7s 6d,
but the actual value of that quality is about 81. ss. Pr ices
range from 71. 15s up to the last mentioned figure. In-
dian meal is very little inquired for, although its value
has receded proportionably with that of the raw material.
