THE COUNTRY MARKET►b.

WAKEFIELD, MARCH B.—The supply of wheat is large,
and good of other grain. The trade continues in the dull
inanimate state we have so long noted, and though there is
less pressure on the market, the wants of the millers are so
limited as to cause a further reduction in wheat of Is per qr.
Barley remains as last stated, the demand being still confined
to the best qualities. Oats, shelling, and beans are offering
on somewhat lower terms.

BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, Manes' B.—The Only feature
to notice in our market this week is the sale of a large parcel
of Mauritius to the refiners, at steady prices. Rum is quite
neglected. Refined goods meet a fair sale at former rates.
Treacle in plentiful supply, at about 17s 6d per cwt.—Bristol
Mercury.
EXETER., MARCIE B.—Cattle market—The supply of beasts
was above an average, and considerably more than last week.
The demand was not very brisk, and for fat beef late prices
were hardly supported. Pannier—Turkeys, 5s to 8s each ;
ducks, 4s (id to 56 6d per couple; wild, ditto, 3s to 4s
ditto ; widgeon, 2s 6d ditto ; galena! 5s ditto ; fowls, 2s 9d
to 4s ditto ; spring chickens, 3s 6d to 4s 6d ditto ; pigeons,
Is 9.1 to' 2s ditto ; hares, 2s 6d each ; roasters, 4s to 5s
ditto; butter, is to is Id per lb; eggs, 20 for ls. Seed
Market—We notice no alterations from last week's quotations,
but clover is dull. 'Wool—Scarcely any business has been
done to-day, the staplers not being anxious to buy. Where
sales have been pre'sed a decline has been submitted to, and
the quotation must be from 4d to 6id per lb. Corn Ex-
change, .one o'clock—There hasnot been a large stroke of bu-
siness transacted, nor can we quote any improvement in price.
Some mixed wheat (red and white,) has been sold at 4s 8d
per bushel, and prime wheat at ss, (warranted). Neither
to-day, nor for several previous weeks, has there been any
foreign wheat in the market. The low prices arise from the
universal distrust caused by the confident assertions that large
quantities will arrive, than to any other source. Malting
barley, 2s 10d to 3s per bushel ; oats, is 10d to 2s Id ditto;
fine flour, 27s 6d to 29s per sack. _ .

NEWNERY, MARCH .7.—Our supply of wheat is quite
moderate, yet more than sufficient for the demand. The dull
state of the flour markets, both east and west, has a very
depressing influence upon the wheat trade; and although a de-
cline of Is to 2s per qr. was submitted to, still some quantity
remains over unsold. Barley, moderate supply, in addition to
the requirements of maltsters, there being some little demand
for seed; all descriptions of barley fully maintained late rates.
Beans, peas, and oats, fair supply, and in fair request at fully
late rates.

LIVERPOOL, MARCH B.—At this day's market there was a
very scanty attendance of the town and country trade, who
manifested extreme indifference to enter into business. In the
few sales made of wheat and flour the prices of Tuesday were
with difficulty maintained. Fine oats were held firmly at late
rates, but inferior qualities were offered on lower terse. Bar-
ley, beans, and peas were quite neglected. New yellow Ameri-
can corn was again easier to buy, 26s per quarter being the
current price; white was generally held at 27s 6d to 28s per
quarter.
BIRMINGHAM, MARCH 7.—At Gloucester and Worcester
markets on the 2d the trade ruled very dull, but lower prices
were not generally submitted to for any description of wheat.
Barley as difficult to dispose of as ever. Oats taken in limited
quantities at previous rates. Beans and peas nominally unal-
tered. This week we have to report the same absence of de-
mand as for some weeks past, the few sales made were at a re-
duction of fully Is. per quarter. We have heard of no trans-
actions in barley. Oats are held for previous rates. On beans
the turn is again in favour of the buyer. In peas nothing doing
worth notice. At this day's market there was only a moderate
supply of wheat from the farmers, and the trade ruled dull at
is per quarter under the currency of this day se'nnight. Bar-
ley, except best qualities, could only be sold at a similar de-
cline. Oats pressed on the markets without finding buyers.
Nothing doing worth notice in either beans or peas. The
millers have lowered the retail price of flour is 8d per sack.
BRISTOL, MARCH 7.—The market was well supplied with
English and foreign wheat, which met an inadepuato demand,
and on the limited sales occurring prices have receded in the
last fortnight from is to 2s per quarter. English wheat, 36s
to 40s per imperial quarter ; ditto foreign white, 42s to 46s ;
ditto red, fine, 39s to 425; ditto ordinary, 36s to 38s; ditto hard,
34s to 37s per 4801bs. Malting barley is very dull and cheaper,
and grinding parcels may be noted at from 6d to Is per quar-
ter lower; English malting, 24s to 28s per imperial quarter;
ditto and foreign grinding, 18s to 21s per 4001bs. Oats were
unsaleable at fully is per quarter lower. Devon and Welsh
oats, 14s to 15s per imperial quarter; ditto, Irish white.
15s 6d to 17s per 3201bs ; ditto black, 14e to 15s per imperial
quarter ; ditto foreign, none. Beans continue to decline at
reduced quotations. English beans, 24s to 28s. per imperial
quarter ' • ditto foreign, 23s to 25s per 4801bs. Flour was 13
per sack lower, wtth a sharp sale. English flour, seconds, 27s
to 29s per sack; ditto American, sweet, 22s 6d to 23s 6d per
band. The average are—Bristol wheat, 38s 2d ; Gloucester
ditto, 38s I Id. Bristol oats, 16s Id; Gloucester ditto, 17s 3d;
Bristol barley, 26s ld ; Gloucester ditto, 23s 3d. Bristol
beans, 30s ltd; Gloucester ditto, 25s 4d.
WETHERBY, MARCH 7.—White wheat 15s 6d to 17s Cd, red

MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the London New Price Current, March 8.)
SUGAR.—To-day West India Sugar met with little at-
tention for the scale or relining purposes, and rather lower
rates were acceded to. Only 260 hhds, &c. were disposed of,
including at auction 30 hhds 22 trcs 30 brls chrystalized De-
merara, which sold at 49s to 50s 6d for white, yellow 38s to
43s Gd, brown 36s Gd to 373 6d, inferior 32s 6d. to 33s 6cl
per cwt. For the week in all only 824 hhds, Pic. have been
disposed of, and prices close Gd per cwt under those of
Friday last.
REFINED.—To-day there was less activity in the refined
Sugar market, still brown grocery Lumps were not to be
obtained under 48s per cwt. The market is dull for Crushed
Sugar, and prices are rather lower; the best British is not
worth more than 30s per cwt.
Maui:rms.—This afternoon the public sales of 3,253 bags
Mauritius Sugar went off at rather lower rates, and a part
only sold; fine yellow at 39s to 40s 6d, other sorts 35s to
38s 6d, good to fine brown 33s 6d to 34s 6d, and other
kinds 31s to 34s Gd per cwt.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon Bengal met with little atten-
tion, and rather lower rates were acceded to. At public
sales 3,764 bags mostly found buyers; white Benarea at
38s to 41s, damp and washed 37s 6d to 403 6d, soft yellow
34* to 375, low date 29s to 325, and good to fine strong grainy
yellow 41s 6d to 42s lid per cwt.
FOREIGN.—This afternoon there was little passing by
private treaty in Foreign Sugar. At Auction 72 hhds Suri-
nam went at moderate rates; soft yellow at 36s to 375. and
brown 34s per cwt. A cargo of low yellow Havanuah has
been sold at t Os 3d per cwt.
COFFEE —This afternoon the private transactions in
Coffee were trifling for all purposes, and prices are still on the
decline. The value of Native Ceylon is 57s to 58s for good
ord, and 55s to 568 for arrival. Of Plantation a small part
only of 165 casks 13 bags at auction found buyers at 65s to
68e for mid, and at 70s per cwt for good.
MOLASSES.—There is a larger supply of West India. At
public sale 27 puns St Vincents were sold at 16s ; whilst 615
puns 19 hhds and 50 barrels of Barbadoes were taken in at
17s 6d per cwt. There are few buyers of Bengal, and 138 6d
to 14s is the value. Of Mauritius 165 casks at auction were
- taken in at 13s per cwt fyr viry 19w guilty.
