NEWBURY, JAN. 4.-Our supply of wheat to-clay is

cannot report any great decline, yet but little business
was done, at rather declining rates. Darley, large eur

slack, and prices de.doted is to 2s per quarter from the
rates of last week. Beans, oats. and peas moderate
supply. So little business was dune in these articlesf
that we can seal rely note prices ; but had there been
disposition to purchase, much lower riltes would have been.

LIVERPOOL, JAN. s.—At this day's market there was
a fair attendance of dealers, and a moderate show of
wheat, oats, &c. The demand for wheat was limited in
the extreme, without any material change in the value
of old, but Irish new was pressed at a small decline.
Flour was likewise dull, and barely supported previous
rates. Oats and oatmeal were without change in value,
but the sale was very slow. Malting barley was is per
quarter lower; but in otle r kinds there was no altera-
tion. Beans and peas were quite neglected. The trans-
actions in Indian corn were much less than usual, and
the better qualities were easier to purchase. We heard
of no sales of bonded wheat ; but a few parcels of flour
were reported to have changed hands, at 255,61 per brl.
EXETER, JAN. s.—Cattle market—The supply to-
day was again small, rather less than last week, and
there being a greater number of dealers present, prices
were rather firmer. For the best fat beef nine shillings
per score was given, the price ranging from eight shil-
lings to that figure. For cows and calves higher prices
were also asked, and sales were effected at from 91 to
151; b trreners were als,azt late rates, 4s 4d to 5s per
score, very fresh ones being worth a little more than the
latter figure. Butchers' calves 51d to 6d per lb. A
small supply of sheep with a rather better demand,
prime wethers selling at .51d to 6d per lb, and ewes, 5d
Sid. A moderate supply of pigs. Pork carcases—Tee
supply was larger than last week, pith a duller demand,
but prices remained the same, from 8s to 9s per score.
Pannier—Turkeys, 53 to lOs each; geese, 4s 6d to 63 6d
ditto ; ducks, 4s 6d to 5s 6d per couple ; fowls, 2s ed to

Potatoes, is 2d to is 3d per score; turnips, 3d to 4d
ditto ; onions, id per lb ; parsnips, 21b. for lid. Cora
Exchange—The market. has been again depressed to •dayi
the millers showing great reluctance to purchase more
than for immediate wants, owing to the near approach of
the let of February. This circumstance has rendered
foreign wheat entirely unsaleable, as the duty being nog
95 per quarter added to its bonded price, makes it con'
siderably dearer than English wheat. Best samples of
best new English wheat sold slowly at from 6s ed to
6s 9d ; barley, for malting, 3s 9d to 4s per bushel, for
grinding, 3s to 3s 6,1; oats, 2s 2d to 2s 4d ditto ; fine
flour, 38s to 40s per sack, the millers purchasing but
very sparely.
TOTNES GREAT MARKET, JAN. 2. There was 5
rather small supply of fat stock exhibited to-day, with a
tolerably good attendance of buyers. The market
commenced somewhat lively, but it wound up as flat as
ever. Wool was in element' at a higher rate than before.
Corn nominally the same. Best fat bullocks, 48s to 525;
middling descriptions, 46s to 48s ; rough quality, 42s to
445; store stock, 30s; cows and calves, 42s to 48s pet
cwt, sinking the offal. Sheep—wethers, 54d to Sid
ewes, 5d to 51-d per lb. Wool, 6d to 64d, 21lb. to the
score, in its grease. Corn—We have very little 01a
wheat left on hand, and the new grain is still damp, the
greater part of which is unsaleable, and the transactions
here are exceedingly small at present in the corn trade
Our millers are using foreign grain with a very small
quantity of old and new English wheat mixed thcrewith'
Old wheat, about 14s; new, 9s to 12s 6d ; barley, 5s t 0

32s 9d; and for oats 25s 5d per quarter.

INVERNESS, JAN. 2.—Prices still looking down in ott,e
local market, as well as at Mark-lane and the other grill°
ruling markets. Farmers, however, hold the opioi(e:
whether well or ill-grounded, that a reaction will
placer, and they reserve their stocks accordingly. i;
great amount of sales have consequently taken place'
Little or no old wheat is now brought in. New may
