THE COUNTRY MARKETS.

BRISTOL, OCT. 11.—In our market this week prices
have been firmly supported for English and foreign
wheats generally; and a fair extent of sales at is per qr
advance for fine qualities has, in some cases, been rea-
lized. English wheat, 36s to 443 per imp qr; foreign

per 4801bs; ditto, ordinary, 36s to 393 per 4801bs; ditto,
hard, 34s to 37s per 4801bs. Flour was in better demand,
and good qualities realised a similar improvement to
that noted on English; English seconds, 29s to 31s per
sack; American sweet, 23s to 25s per barrel. Malting
Barley, in small supply, at previous rates, and but little
inquiry for grinding parcels. English malting, 28s to
32e per imp qr. English and foreign grinding, 19s to
24s per 400 lbs. Old oats maintained their value, but
new were 6d to is per qr cheaper. Devon and Welsh,
14s to 15s per imp qr; Irish, white, 16s to 18s per 3201b5;
ditto, black, 14s to 15s per imp qr. Foreign none. Old
beans quite as dear, and new the turn lower; English,
28s to 32a per imp qr; foreign, 25; to 283 per 4801bs.

BIRMINGHAM, OCT, 11.—At Gloucester market, on
the 6th, wheat was about Is. per quarter dearer ; at
Worcester, same day, the turn was in favour of the
seller, but at no quotable variation from that day
se'night. Barley in improved demand, at former rates.
Old oats maintained their value, but new were again
6d to is per quarter cheaper. Beans and peas both
rather higher. During the present week, owing to the
improvement in the weather, we have less passing in
the trade, but the wheat disposed of has realised pre-
vious rates. Lower prices are not submitted to for
barley. but th •re is less doing therein. Oats taken in
limited quantities at our quotations. Beans and peas
held for fully as much money. At this day's market,
there was a short supply of wheat from the farancrs, arid
English wheat was Is per quarter dearer, whilst fo-
reign sold more freely at fully last week's rates. Barley
unaltered in value, with an increased sale for all quali-
ties. Very little doing in oats, arid to have made pro-
gress, a reduction must have been submitted to. Beans
and pess held for quite as much money, but the tran-
sactions were not extensive in either.
