THE COUN TRY MARKETS.

WAKEFIELD, DEC. 12.—The change of wind has
brought the expected fleet of vessels to hand, and a
hundred and twenty sail have arrived at Poole during
the past eight days. Oar arrivals of grain this week are
large, and millers are enabled, to make their purchases of
wheat on easy terms; and new is generally ls per quar-
ter lower than the extreme rates of last week. Old
maintains its previous value, and on the whole there is
no desire to urge sales; but buyers are very cautious.
Fine barley is fully as dear; the second sorts sell very
slowly. Oats and shelling have advanced. Beans are
more plentiful and Trines are is per quarter lower. No
alteration in other articles.

NEWBURY, DEC. 11.—Our supply of wheat to-day is
a fair average, and the condition is good. The trade is
extremely inanimate, and although prices cannot be
noted lower, still there is difficulty in obtaining late
rates. Barley, a large supply, with a dull sale. In some
instances a slight decline was acceded to, but generally
the article is held for late rates. Beans, peas, and oats
in moderate supply, with a fair demand at late rates.
LIVERPOOL, DEC. 12.—The attendance at our Corn
Exchange Ibis morning was thin, and the business trans-
acted was small. Wheat was ld per bushel worse than

ported late rates. Indian corn was less inquired for to
day, but there was no observable change in the value of
this or of any other article of the corn trade.

morning presented, as is usual after the fair, a very
barren aspect. There was little or no cattle driven in,
stud but a trifling amount of business done. There was

and store pigs were from 15s to 32s each. Pork Car-
cases—Thu supply was good, and the demand was tole-
rably brisk. Prices ranged from 6s to 6s 9d per score.
