not effected at that price. The attendance at market
was rather and, although the supplies were short,
the value of wheat declieecl, and business was limited to
retail transactions. Best white wheat (last year's crop)
must be quoted at 15s 6:1, and red 14s 61 per bag, but
sales were effected at 15s and 14s respectively. Barley
moved off slowly at 25s to 27s per quarter. Nothing
done in oats. Old beans realiz d 12s to 12s 6d per bag•
The market at Wolverhampton was but thinly at-
tended, and the fineness of the weather had the effect of
depressing the marker. Farmers brought wheat to
market in moderate supplies, and millers purchased but
sparingly at a reduction of is 6d to 2s per quarter on
last week's rates. English white wheat 16 • and red 15s
per 621 b. Foreign a slow sale at is per quarter decline.
Malting barley maintained last week's quotations, the
price remaining 27s to 29s per quarter; grinding quali-
ties, 25s to 26s per 3921 b. In beans little business was
transacted. Old English fetched 12s 6d per bag; French,
Ils6d to 12s; and Egyptian, Ils to 11a 6d. English
oats sold slowly at 6.1 per quarter decline—say 24s to
255, and Irish 21s to 22s per 3121 b.
At Kidderminster there was a moderate supply, and a
decline of is per quarter took place there also. A great
eeal of wheat and beans has been cut this week in ex-
cellent condition. Although there are still rumours of
the prevalence of the potato disease, it appears to be very
partial.
NOTTINGHAM, AUG. 16,—The supply of farmers'
wheat was much less this week than last, but it was quite
sufficient for the wants of the buyers, who supplied
themselves at a decline of is to 23 per quarter. Grind-
ing barley maintained its price; also old oa's. Some
semi lee of new eats were sold at from 19s to 23s per
quarter. In beans there was no alteration.
GLASGOW, CATTLE MARKET, AUG. 14.—At our
market to-day the numbers were—oxen, 449; sheep,
1.800; lambs, 5,527. Owing to the small supply of cattle
sales were easily effected at fully last week's prices.
Best ox beef brought 44s per cwt., current 42s per do,
inferior from 34s to 38s per do, sinking the offal; all sold.
The demand for sheep was very dull, and sales were
slowly effected. Best aged wethers brought 53d per lb,
current 5d do, inferior from 4d to 44d per du, sinking
the offal. Best limbs Vtrought 15s per head, and inferior
kinds realised from lOs to 12s each. A few small lank/
only brought from 4a to 6s each. A number of the
lambs shown were purchased by Irish dealers.

of the three prices of wheat were lest 91b, lBst 21b, and 16st
91b. Oats, 12st I.lb, 12st I lb, and list 616. Barley, lbst 611),

CORK, AUG. 15.

The fineness of the weather and continued dull advises
from the English markets, have combined to depress the
trade here. But little business has been done during
the week in any article of grain, white the tendency for
all descriptions is to lower prices. We have to notice
also some very large arrivals from abroad, and these
also have bad a serious effect upon the market. The
receipts of home grain (oats particularly) begin to ill'
crease. The supply for the week is—of wheat, 10 brill.
barley, 396 brls, oats, 1,364 brls. The receipts of oats
are composed almost entirely of new, and those are taken
readily at good prices. The business passing in foreign
wheat is very limited, and the article sells only in retail
quantities, at a reduction of fully 6LI to is per barrel. In
oats we have no transactions to notice. The trade in
flour is exceedingly dull, and factors find it very difficult
to effect sales even at reduced prices. The abundant
supply of potatoes, which are selling at very moderate
prices, interferes greatly with the consumption of bread,
which has materially fallen off. The sale of Indian
corn is also seriously affected by the same course, and
there is literally nothing doing in the article. Prices
are lower, and altogether nominal.
