wheat are firm, and for the best qualities is per. quarter more
is obtained ;'other sorts about the same as last week. ' Barley
slow sale, except for the best descriptions. Beans rather
cheaper. ' Oats and shelling fully as dear.

LevaarooL, MAY 31.—At this day's market there was only
a slender attendance of the town and country trade, who pur-
chased sparingly of wheat and flour, at the full prices of Tues-
day, except for white wheats, which were decidedly easier to
buy. Oats and oatmeal were in moderate request at late rates.
Barley, beans, and peas, neglected and without change in value.
Indian corn met with considerable attention, and most of the
parcels offering from the quay were cleared off at 31s to 31s 6d
per quarter for prime yellow, with an upward tendency towards
the close.
NEWBURY, MAY 30.--The quantity of wheat on offer to.
day is a fair average for this period of the year. The long-con-
tinued dulness of the flour trade has a very depressing influence
on the trade in wheat; and, although we cannot note any de-
cline in prices, still great dulness prevails, and with difficulty
late rates are obtained. In spring corn, with moderate supplies,
but little is passing, at unaltei ed rates.
EXETER, MAY 31.—Cattle Market—The market was
fairly supplied, with a moderate demand. Fat beef ranged
from 7s Gd to 8s per score. Some good working oxen were
offered at 11/ Its each. Barreners, ss to 58 3d per score. A
good many yearlings were on offer at V 1 to 3/103. The sup-
ply of rearing calves from Dorsetshire was again large; they
sold at 35s to 45s each. Butchers' calves, 3d to 4d per lb. A
fair supply of sheep—fated naked wethers, 5d per lb; in their
wool 54,1 ; very nice small sheep 51d. Lambs, 5d to 6d. Fine
hogs, 25a to ;ios ; couples 30s to 40s each. Pork Carcases—
A shorter supply than last week, the turn was in favour of the
seller, prices ranged from 6s 61 to 7s 9d per score. Pannier
Market—There was a good supply of poultry for the tinae of
the year, goslings 5s to 7s each, ducklings, 4s to 5s 6d per
couple, chickens, 33, 6d per couple. Butter Sd to 10d per Ib ;
eggs, 24 for 1. Seed Market—Quotations remains the same
as last week. Corn Market—The recent favourable change
from cold and cheerless weather to the clear hot sunshine of the
last few days, has so much improved the appearance of the
grain crops as to remove some of the fears which were lately
entertained respecting them. These circumstances, it nay be
will rather tend to depress the corn market. Not-
supposed,
withstanding this fact, that many farmers are now busily con.
fiued to their grounds, preparing for the turnip crops, sts that
a less than usual supply of corn may be expected at market.
Wheat, 5s to 5s Cd ; barley, 3, ; oats, 9s to 2s 3d.
BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, MAY 31.—There continues
a very steady demand for raw sugars, and the late advance in
prices has been firmly supported. The supply at marlcet is
very indifferent ; but as arrivals are now taking place, this
will soon be rectified. Refined goods of all description.s are
much wanted, and prices are again rather dearer. Ruin is
still dull of sale. —Brtstol.2/Tercury.
