THE COUNTRY MARKETS.

WAKEFIELD, DEC. s.—There is a good supply of
wheat this week, and holders are firm in requiring an
advance of is per quarter, which is pretty readily obtained
on all fresh qualities. For barley there is a fair sale at
late prices. Oats and shelling are again held for more
money. Beans as last stated.

EXETER, DEC. s.—Cattle Market—As is generally
the case, the market previous to the fair was thinly at-
tended and as scantily supplied. There were very few
beasts driven in, and not many sales were effected.
Prices were about the same as last week. For prime
beef, 7s 9d to 8s per score; inferior, 7s to 7s 6d. Cows
and calves were from 91 9s to 144 and in some instances
higher. Steers, a very few of which were shown, were
offered at about the same as last week. Barreners, 4s to
4s 6d per score. Sheep were more plentiful, and several
prime lots changed hands at about 5d per lb for wethers,
and 4id for ewes. Pigs, a sfnall supply at previous
prices. _ Pork Carcases—The supply was tolerably
large, at prices ranging from 6s to 6s 9d per score.
Pannier—Turkeys, 5s to Ss each; geese, 45 to 5s 6d;
ducks, 3s 6d to 5s per couple; fowls, 2s 9d to 4s ditto;
roasters, 4s to 5s each; pheasants, 6e per brace ; par-
tridges, 2s 9d to 3s ditto; black game, lOs ditto; wild
duck, 4s to 4s 6d per couple; widgeon, 35 6d ditto ;:teal,
2s 6d ditto; woodcocks, 4s 6d to 5s ditto; snipes, is 3d
to is 6d ditto; pigeons, 10d each; hares, 2s 6d to 3s
ditto; rabbits, 10d ditto; butter, is per lb; eggs, 10 to
12 for a shilling. Corn Exchange—Very few samples
have been exhibited, and the lateness of the time at
which the market commences—which is a source of
general complaint—precludes the possibility of our as-
certaining the precise state of the market. Wheat was
quoted higher than last week, at from 55 to 5s 3d per
bushel; barley, 3s to 3s 4d; oats, 2s 2d to 2s 3d ditto.
Fine flour, 29s to 308 per sack.
BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, DEC. 5.--The transactions
of the week have been unimportant, owing to the in-
difference of holders to offer their stocks at present rates;
prices, however, are well supported, and in one or two
instances a slight improvement has been obtained for
good refining sorts, which are wanted. The refined
market continues steady, with a fair business doing at
previous rates. Rum is still dull, and rather lower.—
