THE COUNTR MARKETS.
LIVERPOOL, JULY 26.—T0-day prices are firm, but remain
unchanged.
MANCHESTER, JULY 26.—During the week the weather
for the most part was showery and unsettled, with a rather
cool temperature. The trade since our last report has under-
gone little or no change, the demand for all articles being on a
very limited scale, and on flour buyers have had the turn of
prices in their favour. From Ireland and our own coast the
arrivals into Liverpool and Runcorn are extremely light, and
from abroad the imports this week (with the exception of
wheat which are to a fair amount) are only to a moderate ex-
tent. Our market this morning was exceedingly quiet, but in
the value of wheat no change was observable. Flour met a
very slow sale, and barely supported the previous currency.
Oats were likewise rather cheaper, but oatmeal, continuing in
very short supply, realised fully late rates.
In the neighbourhood of Sudbury the heavy rains have laid
extensive breadths of wheat, which are likely to be much in-
jured by it, and at the market on Thursday this produced much
firmness, the farmers being indisposed to sell unless at an ad-
vanced rate.
In Suffolk the markets have been scantily supplied.
At Hadleigh scarcely anything but wheat was offered, and
the trade for this was dull.
At Bury the trade was by no means active, but late quota-
rior qualities declined 6d to Is per quarter.

WORCESTER, JULY 26.—Sonse heavy rains this week in
different part of the country, and high winds have in many
places beaten down the corn crops, now heavy with the swell-
ing grain. The rain has been very serviceable in reviving the
green crops, but the wheat can do well without moisture until
harvest. At our market to-day prices were well supported,
although millers purchased with caution. English white
wheat sold at 16s to 17s per bag of three bushels ; and red, 15s
to 16s per bag. Malting barley in moderate request at 3s 6d
to 3s 8d per imperial bushel ; distilling, 3s 4d to 3s 6d. New
English beans, 4s 4d to 4s 8d per bushel ; old, 4s 8d to 5s per
bushel; foreign as before. Old English oats, 3s 6d to 3s 9d
per 391 b ; new, 3s 3d to 356 d ; and Irish, from 3s to 3s 3(1 per
bushel. Peas sold slowly at from 4s 4d to 4s 6d per bushel.
On the whole the market was dull.
At Stourbridge and Stratford-on-Avon corn markets on
Friday the same dullness was observable, and business was
only transacted on a limited scale.
At Wolverhampton there was a moderate supply of wheat
from the farmers, but millers bought very cautiously; the
prices of last week were not exceeded in any sales. English
wheat brought 8s to 18s 6d per bag for white, and 16s to 17s
for red, 1961 b net. Barley for grinding in full request, at 26s
per 39 'lb ; malting qualities little inquired for. Old English
beans a dull •ale at 13s 6d ; new English, 12s to 12s 6d; and
French, 12s per 1961 b Oats were disposed of at rather less
money, the rates being. English, 25s to 265; Irish, 21s to 23s ;
and French, 20s to 21 s per 3121 b.
At Atherstone there was a fair show of wheat, which met
with a fair sale at former prices. Wheat, 17s to 17s Bd per
bag of three bushels Barley sold at from 27 to 30s per quarter.
Oats from 26s to 28s per quarter
GLASGOW CATTLE MARKET, JULY 24.--At our market
to-day the numbers were—sheep, 1,923; lambs, 5,149 ; oxen,
597 Owing to the large supply of cattle and the unfavour-
able state of the weather for slaughtering, sales were very
slowly effected at barely last week's prices. Best ox beef
brought 14s per cwt, current 425, cows 36s to 40s per cwt.
A great many turned out unsold. Sheep moved off slowly at '
less than last week's prices. Best aged wethers 51c1, current ;London: Printed and Published by MURDO YOUNG,

Stomachs.—lncurable diseases Lffteting the heart, the liver,
and the fothaecihlungs, are frequently engendered by inattention to the

loss of strength, and loss of energy. To counteract these dis-
tressing symptoms it is only necessary to take a few doses of
Holloway's inestimable Pills, which will be the means of puri-
fying the blood, and thereby give a healthy action to the vital
functions. Their effect on the system is to imperceptibly re-
store to the soundest health even the weakest constitution.--•
