THE COUNTRY MARKETS.
GLOUCESTER, JULY 13.—The upward tendency of
prices has been slightly checked to-day by the fineness
of the weather, but still wo can hardly quote any decline
English wheat must be quoted at a decline of is per
quarter on last week's advance. Foreign also lower.
Barley and other grain also dull.
At Cirencester market there was a good business done
at better prices. Best English white wheat, 5s 63 to 5s
93 per bushel; red, 55 to 5s Gd; second qualities, 4s 9d
to ss. Malting barley a drug; grinding, -22 s to 23s per

22s to 25s per quarter; black, 19s to 20s.
NOTTINGHAM, JULY 13.—Wheat—The day being
splendid for the growing crops, very few purchasers ap-
peared willing to give the advance of 2s per quarter
firmly demanded by holders; compulsory buyers were
alone compliers, consequently there was not much busi-
ness done. Flour has advanced from is to 2s per sack
' during the week; and bread 0 the 41b loaf. Barley and
peas so little asked for we cannot quote actual prices.
Malt as last week. Beans—Some fine ticks made
rather more money; one or two heavy lots going at 2s
per quarter advance. Oats—Best heavy Polands were
Is per quarter dearer. Seeds, of dull sale. Prices run
as under—White wheat (weight 18st), from 46s to 49s
