COUNTRY MARKETS.

LIVERPOOL-SEPT. 10.

At to -day's market there was only a thin attendance of
buyers, and a very limited demand was experienced for
wheat and flour at Tuesday's rates. Oats and oatmeal, old
and new, sold slowly at barely late quotations. Barley,
beans, -and peas were without alteration in value or demand.
Indian corn in good request, and both yellow and white
may be quoted at Gd per qr. dearer—yellow bringing from
33s to 3ls, and white from 34s 3d to 34s 9d.

mand was slack, owmg to the prevalence of dry weather.

WAKEFIELD-SEPT. 10.

We have fair arrivals of grain this week. The wheat
trade is slow to-day ; new must be noted is per qr. cheaper;
and damp parcels are difficult to quit. Old is rather lower,
but holders are not generally disposed to press sales. New
barley is in better supply, and prices in favour of the buyer.
Beans, oats, and shelling steady at late rates.

Averages for the week :
Wheat 2,772 qrs., at 46s 81d
