THE COUNTRY MARKETS.

WAKEFIELD, Nov. 2.—The greatest portion of the
late heavy arrivals of wheat which wore unsold has gone
to store and is not offered. The show to-day is con-
sequently by no means great. There is no pressure, at
the same time so little activity, that the rates of last
week are not exceeded for even best dry sorts, and damp
continues to sell heavily. Fine barley fully as dear, low
rates are submitted to for common qualities. Oats and
shelling do not vary.

LIVERPOOL, Nov. 2.—Our arrivals from Ireland and
coastwise since Tuesday have been to a fair extent of
wheat, oats, oatmeal, and flour. From Canada we have
received 2,451 barrels of flour, but from foreign ports,
with the exception of 3,774 quarters of Indian corn, the
supplies are quite unworthy of notice. The exports
continue trifling. The trade hos been extremely languid,
and new wheat and oats have been rather easier to buy.
In other articles there has been no alteration. At this
day's market there was a thin attendance of the trade,
and wheat was in very limited request at a reduction of
id per 701 b on old and best runs of new Irish, but
inferior qualities of the latter were fully 2d lower. Oats
moved oft' slowly, and a further decline of id per 451 b
had to be submitted to. Oatmeal neglected, but without
material change is value. The same remark applies to
barley, beans, peas, and Indian corn. Flour, both sacks
and barrels, met a very slow sale, and the turn was in
favour of the buyer in the few transactions reported.
NEWBURY, Nov. I.—The quantity of wheat pitched
to-day is rather moderate for the season of the year, the
trade in which presents a firm aspect, and although we
do not note any advance, yet the rates obtained are
fully equal to the very highest prices given last week.
Barley, moderate supply; fine malting realised late
rates; other sorts more difficult to sell, at rather a down-
ward tendency in prices. Beans, oats, and peas, short
supply, and late rates about supported.
EXETER, Noy. 2.—Cattle Market—The market has
to-day been fairly supplied, whilst the sale generally has
been brisker than f, r several weeks past, and generally
with some improvement in price. For the very best fat
beef 93 per score has been obtained; but generally prices
have not reached this figure, very good beef having been
bought at 8s 6d per score. Cows and calves have not
been in much request, and sold at from 71 to 131. Fresh
barreners, 5s to 5s 6ii; steers, 6/ to 91 each. The supply
of sheep was moderate, and nearly the whole were
quickly sold. Fat wether sheep were worth full 5(1 per
lb; ewes, 4d to 4A. Keeping wethers sold at 28s to
35s each, and were eagerly bought by the farmers to
eat off the turnips. There was a large supply of pigs.
Pork Carcases—The supply was about equal to that of

last week, but there was a slight advance in prices,
which ranged from Gs 3d to 75 8d per score. Pannier
—Turkeys, 4s 6d to 63 each; Geese, 4s to 5s Gd
ditto; ducks, 3s to 43 Gd per couple; fowls, 23 3d to 4s
ditto; pheasants, 5s Gd per brace; partridges, 2s 9d to
3s ditto; woodcocks, 4s Gd to 56 ditto; snipes, is 6d ditto;
hares, 2s 6d ;o 3s each; rabbits, 91 to 10d ditto; roasters,
3561 to 5s Gd ditto ; butter, lid to is per lb ; eggs, 12
to 14 for ls ; potatoes, 8d per score; turnips, 3d to 4d
ditto. Corn Exchange, one o'clock—Up to this hour
there has been but few millers in the markets, nor has
the attendance of farmers been numerous. For the best
heat Id per lb has been given, or from 5s 2d to 5s 5d
per bushel. At these rates the farmers have not been
willing sellers; all who can hold are doing SO, in the
hope of getting a more remunerative price; had the
millers, therefore, been in want of supplies, they must
have paid higher prices. Barley is about 3s Gd per
bushel. Oats, 2a to 2s 2d. We heard but of one sort of
foreign wheat in the market, French Red, which sold at
40s per quarter. Fine Flour is rather lower, and must
be quoted 29s to 31s per sack.
BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, NOT. 2.—There has been
a very great demand for raw sugars this week, both
from the grocers and refiners, and the offices have been
nearly cleared, at an advance of about 6d per cwt. Re-
fined goods are is dearer, and in short supply. Rum
steady, with more inclination shown by the dealers to do
business at the present very moderate prices.—Bristol
Mercury.
BIRMINGHAM, Nev. I.—Daring the present week
the transactions in the trade have again been on a limited
scale, and where sales have been effected rather lower
prices were submitted to. Barley difficult to quit in
quantity, but not lower in price. Only retail sales re-
ported in oats. Beans and peas held for quite as much
money. At this day's market there was a fair supply of
wheat from the farmers, and dry samples realised quite
as much money, whilst damp parcels were lower. Fine
barley declined is per quarter. Grinding qualities found
buyers to a fair extent, at former prices. On oats, the
turn was in favour of the buyer. Beans firm, but less
in request. Peas rather dearer.
KNARESBOROUGH, OCT. 31.—A1l descriptions of grain
to-day had a downward tendency. The market was very
dull, barely supplied, and purchasers scarce. Wheat,
4s 6d to 5s 3d, beans, 4s Od to 4s 6d per bushel, barley,
24s to 263; oats, 16s to 18s per qr.
NORTHALLERTON, OCT. 31.—Wheat 4s 6d to 5s 6d,
oats is 8d to 2s 4d, beans 43 6d to 4s 9d, barley 3s 6d to
4s per bushel.
RIPON, Nov. I.—Our market was well supplied with
grain this day, the samples of wheat generally soft and
dal' of sale, at a reduction of 2s per qr from last week's
prices. Barley and oats la,iavy at the quotations.
White wheat„ 5s 6d to 6s Od, red do 4s 6d to 5s 6d,
barley 24s to 28s ; oats 15s 6d to22s 6d per quarter.
BARNARD CASTLE, OCT. 31.—Red wheat 103 6d to

12s, new 93 Gd to lls, white lOs 6d to 13s 6d, new lOs 6d
to lls; oats 6s Od to 6s Bd,7new 4s to 5s 8d; beans Os 6d;
grey peas 7s 6cl to Bs, white 8s 3d; barley 6s 6:1 to
7s 6cl per boil.
:SCARBOROUGH, Nov. I.—With a moderate supply of
each article, the price may be quoted the same as last
week. New wheat 5s to .5s 611, old ditto 5s 9d to
6s 3d per 5 stones; new oats 8d to Bd, old ditto 9d to
10d per stone ; malting barley 233 to 245, grinding barley
21s to 22s per quarter of 32 stones; superfine flour 35s
to 365, seconds ditto 30s per sack of 20 stones.
WETHERBY, Nov. I.—White wheat 16s 6cl to 19s 6d,
red ditto 13s 6d to 16s 6d; barley 263 to 30s per qr,
beans 12s to 14s per load, oats Bkd to lld per stone.
Beef, 5s to 5s 6d per stone; mutton, 5d to sid per lb.
BARNSLEY, OCT. 30.—A limited amount of business
was done in wheat at a reduction of 2s per quarter.
Butter sold at from is to is ld per lb ; eggs 14 for ls;
and good potatoes at 8d per peck.
DENBIGH, OCT. 31.—To•da.y's market wore about the
usual appearance as to attendance, but business was far
from brisk although several sales were effected at
similar prices to last market, and the difference in the
prices of the various kinds of grain ,were so trivial as not
to call for any change on our last week's quotations.
MOLD, OCT. 31.—There was a good attendance, at
the market to-day, but little business done, and not
much alteration in prices. The averages were about as
follows—wheat 13s 6d, barleyBs Gd, oats 4s 9d to 5s per
hobbet.
Rim, OCT. 30.—At this day's market the business
in wheat was very limited, and farmers generally were
disappointed, the prices of this day week being barely
obtainable. Wheat, 14s to 15s per hobbet of 168Ibs;
barley, 8s to 9s per 1471bst oats, 5s to 5s 6d per 1051bs
