With regard to the consumption of smoke in the
furnaces connected with marine engines, a most remarkable
discovery has been made. Not only is the smoke consumed,
but the funnel itself is dispensed with, and a uniform pressure
of steam kept up. The experiment has been tried on board
a vessel of three hundred tons burthen, and has been found
to answer most satisfactorily.—Liverpool Mercury.

THE COUNTRY MARKETS.
LivearooL, JUNE 14.—The feeling in the trade to-day is
firm, and the prices of yesterday fully supported.
MANCHESTER., JUNE 14.—During the week a more lively
feeling has appeared in the trade hero than has been expe-
rienced for some time past, all articles having met an improved
vale at gradually advancing prices. The arrivals of English
and Irish produce at Liverpool and Runcorn are exceedingly
light ; but from abroad the imports of wheat, beans, and flour
are to a fair extent, and of Indian corn very large. At our
market this morning a further amendment in the tone of the
trade was observable ; buyers appeared more desirous of going
into stock than of late, but business was somewhat checked by
the high pretensions of holders. Nevertheless wheat must be.
noted 2d to 3d per 701 b.• fresh English flour fully Is, and
French 6d per sack, and barrels is per 1901b.' higher than on
this day se'nnight ; whilst oats commanded Id per 451 b, sod
oatmeal 6d to is per load more money.
of
NOTTINGHAM, JUNE 14.—We had a very supplysmalll
wheat at market to-day, and all fine qualities were ready sale
at an advance of 2s per qr ; secondary samples realized Is per
qr. more. Very few beans showing, and last week's prices
fully supported. Oats were not much inquired for, but main-
tained their previous value.
Worteaszas, JUNE 14.—Our corn market to-day was pretty
firm. Farmers held for full rates of last market day, and
s.
per. qr. more money was obtained for superior samples. Engli.sn,
white wheat is worth 16s 6d to 17s 6d per bag of 3 bushel
and red 15s to 16s, with alai'. business doing in both. Malting
barley may be quoted at 33 6d per bushel, and distilling to
3s 44 per bushel. English beans 4s 4d to 4s
4s per
and foreign 4s to 4s 2d per bushel. Old English oats,
Peas, front
391 b, and new from 3s to 33 6d ; Irish, 3s to 3s 2d.
3s 6d to 4s per bushel.
' was At Stourbridge market on Friday the supply of grain ,
limited, and holders asked higher rates. This the millers sad
8d per bushel,
dealers were unwilling to give, and hence business W
limited. Wheat must, therefure, be quoted firm at the Tar"
of yesterday se'nnight. Other grain stationary.
Stratford. on-Avon market on Friday for
plied, and the market was ffrm. English wheat wasn, tbe,
64 per quarter more money than on last market day, a u
lisp
transactions effected were at that advance. Best Engs

GLASGOW CATTLE MARKET JUNE 12.--The supply
of

cows, bulls, and inferior price,beasts 36s to 42s per oct'
sinking the offal. The supply of sheep was good, but the de-
mand was better, and ail sold at full last day's rates. Beet
aged sheep 6d per lb, current scl to bid, ewes and cIiPP7
sheep 4id to 5d per Ib, sinking the cffal. A very large suPPI

English buyers in our market.
CORK, JUNE 13.
The arrivals of foreign grain since our last have been rather
numerous. Some vessels have discharged here but the larger
number, having merely " called for orders," either have sailed
or will sail for other ports. Although the
advices from Mark
Lane are firmer, the effect of the arrivals noticed has been to
prevent any very decided advance in this market. We have,
be
T
in consequence, but little change to notice in the trade. '—
supply of home trade continues
very trifling. The receipts for
the week are, of wheat 48 barrels, barley 27 barrels, and oats
406 barrels. In prices there is no chap e. The transactions
in price foreign wheat have been to a cognsiderable extent, but
at prices varying little from those of last week, any difference
however, being in favour of the seller. We may quote the
article 64 to 9el per barrel dearer. Of Egyptian we have none
in the market. Of barley there arc no stocks held here. As
regards oats, as we mentioned last week, the stocks held here
are in the hands of two or three parties, who look to realise a
profit, which tends to check business. We quote black oats
12s, white oats, 12s 6d to 12s 9d
per barrel, free on board. For
flour we experience an improved demand, and some parties
are looking for an advance, whieh, however, they have not ate
obtained, Coarse descriptions continue to sell freely. 111,6
sale of Indian corn has evidently been affected by the late wel-
come rains, and the cheering appearance and prospects of the
potato crop. The business passing is consequently rather re-
stricted, and
,the purchases made are only for the supply of
immediate wants. We have no Galatz corn in the market.
We quote French and Portuguese 71 12s 6d to 7115 s per
ton.
