THE COUNTRY MARKETS.
IPSWICH, MAT 14.

There was a much larger supply of wheat at market this
day. It sold languidly at same prices as last week; but in
some instances the buyers had rather the turn in their favour.
Of barley only a very few samples appeared ; they brought
about is per quarter advance. Beans and peas were each a
shilling per quarter dearer.

HULL, MAT 14.
Messrs. Taylor and Bright's Circular states :—There has
been a good business doing in each description of grain during
the past week, at fully the advance noted in our last report,
and in some instances at somewhat more money. The tem-
perature has been milder, but still it is not " May weather."
Arrivals are rather larger, but the demand takes off everything
from ship. Our farmers brought a fair supply of wheat for our
this day's market, and were asking a smart advance upon the
enhanced rates of last Tuesday. The report from Mark-lane
rather checked the courage of our millers, and they were only
sly buyers at the prices of last week, say 40s to 41s for good
runs of 631bs wheat; for one or two picked samples Is, more
money was paid. Very little fresh foreign offering, and no
alteration in value to be reported. The demand for barley
continues. For malting purposes it is almost exclusively con-
fined to heavy sorts, Chevalier Saal obtaining the preference.
Grinding is very scarce, and full prices are paid. Very few
beans offering, and the last noted advance is fully maintained.
The transactions in peas and oats are very limited, as are also
the supplies. The linseed market is rather firmer ; the above
arrival is of middling and low qualities. Linseed cakes are 5s
per ton dearer for all sorts, with a much reduced stock of
foreign ; late cold weather has thrown a large consumption
upon this article. No rapeseed offering. Rape cakes meet
a fair sale at our above currency. Bones must again be
written dearer.
