THE COUNTRY MARKETS.

WAKEFIELD, hILY 25.—Since this day week the weather
has been of a varied character, and though not injurious to the
growing crops, they cannot have made much further progress
towards maturity. The arrivals are on a moderate scale. There
is no change to note in the value of wheat, the demand con-
tinuing entirely upon fine fresh qualities, of which there is
but little offering. Oats and shelling are fully as dear. Beans
in retail demand at late prices. Grinding barley is dearer.

BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, JULY 25.—The transactions
in West India descriptions are still very limited, and prices
are with difficulty supported; for foreign there is a moderate
demand, and further sales are reported, but without the parti-
culars transpiring. Refiners' produce is in steady demand,
and rather dearer. Rum only in limited demand.
EXETER, JULY 25.—Cattle Market—The market was again
small for all descriptions of stock, and as buyers were not nu-
merous prices remained the same as last week. Fat beef, 7s
6d to 8s per score. There were but few steers in the market,
at about previous rates. Barreners, from 4s 6d to 5s per score.
cows and calves, 81 to 12/; some were sold of good quality at
from 101 to 10110 s. The average price of butchers' calves,
which were scarce, was about 31/2d per lb. Sheep were more
plentiful than the other descriptions of stock. Large wethers,
from 4d to 41Ael per lb ; small ditto, 41Ad to 43/411 ; ewes, 4d
to 41/2d ; lambs, 5d to 51,4 d. Pork Carcases—The supply
was rather small this morning, at prices ranging from 7s to
7s 6d per score. Pannier—Turkey poults, 6s to 8s each ;
ducks, 3s 6d to 5s per couple; fowls, 2s 91 to 4s; pigeons,
Is 8d ; leverets, 2s 6d to 3s Od each ; eggs, 18 for Is ; butter,
9-0 to 10d per lb. Corn Exchange—But very little business
has been done in the corn market. The day being rainy,
holders are not anxious to realize, and the price of wheat must
be put up is per qr over that of last week. In barley nothing
is doing. Oats are scarce, at 2s 6d to 2s 8d per bushel. Fine
flour 32s to 33s per sack.
NEw.nuRY, JULY 24.—The supply. of wheat offering today
is very large, and more than is required for the supply 4the
local trade, to which the demand is principally confined. The
sales effected have been at fully last week's prices, but much
remains undisposed of, to await other markets. Barley but
little in offer, and without alteration in value. Beans, oats,
and peas, short supply, but sufficient to meet the demand,
which is slack, and late rates are barely supported.
LIVERPOOL, JULY 25.—The weather has been unsettled,
wet, and cool, and the growing crops of grain are not much
more forward than they were ten days ago. Still the corn
trade the last two days has been merely steady with a very
moderate demand. The country demand for wheat and flour,
which has been in abeyance for three or four weeks, returned
to us to-day, and altogether we had a good healthy basiness,
at very full prices, for every article of the grain trade.

BIRMINGHAM, JULY 25.
&rook EXCHANGE.—The improvement which has taken
place in the tone of our share market, guided as it is by the
better feeling exhibited on the London Exchange, has been
maintained, but, although prices are somewhat improved,
there is little increase in business. The transactions which
occurred were comparatively unimportant either as to their
number or amount, and there was generally little alteration
of yesterday's quotations.

follow:—East Lancashire, 1334—Great Northern, 161,1—
