MANcuEsTEn, JAN. 26.—The trade throughout the
week has remained in the same lifeless state as pre-
viously noticed, the dealers and bakers continuing for
the most part to act on the reserve, and in t'ie few sales
of flour effected the currency of the preceding market-
day was not supported. Oatmeal was in moderate de-
mand, without alteration in value. With a change of
wind this week the arrivals of wheat, brans, Indian
corn, and flour from abroad at Liverpool are on a more
extensive scale than for some time past; and from Ire-
land liberal supplies of wheat, oats, and oatmeal have
come to hand. At our market this morning there was
again a very languid feeling aparent, and wheat was ob-
tainable on rather easier terms. Flour likewise con-
tinued to exhibit a drooping tendency, and only nomi-
nal quotations can be giv •e, Oats and oatmeal were
in limited request, but cannot be quoted lower.
WORCESTER, JAN. 26.—Our market t)-day was flat,
and prices must be quoted a trifle lower than at last
market day. The top price of English white wheat to-
day was 16s per bag, bat the general run of sales were
effected at about 15s per bag. Good malting barley
maintained late currencies, and was worth 3s 6d per
bushel; grinding qualities 2s 9.1 to 3s per bushel. Malt
remains at about 7s 64 per bushel. For oats a sluggish
demand at 3s per bushel for English, and 2s 9d fir Irish
samples. English beans about 14s per bag. Peas for
feeding 33 4d, and white boilers
now
sper
qbuuostheedl,at withfroma
slow sale. Winter vetches may to
5s to 5a 6d per imperial bushel.
There was a numerous attendance both of farmers and
millers at Stourbridge market on Friday, but the actual
amount of business transin t'd did not correspond with
the attendance. The best samples of English wheat
barely maintained last w. ek's currencies, while inferior
qualities suffered a decline of about 64 per quarter;
average price about two guineas per quarter. Barley
less inquired for, and a trifle lower in value; 26s per
quarter about the average price. In beans and peas next
to nothing doing, at the nominal rates of last week.
Stratford on-Avon markatou Friday aas well attended.
There was a good supply of grain on offer, though busi-
ness was generally dull, and prices on the decline. Wheat
must be quoted Is per quarter lower than on this day
week, and 15s por baz is W.-mut the current price. Barley
in demand, but net much busines done, holders asking
for a ri:e, which purchasers would not concede ; ave-
rage, about 25s per quarter. Oats sold at I9s to 20s
per quarter. Beans of less value, at lOs to lls per bag.
At Wolverhampton market prices were a shade lower
for wheat—say, 6d t) is per quarter. Other grain also
declined in value.
At Kidderminster market the value of wheat fell at
least 3d per bag, and business was flat for all kinds of
grain. Barley, beans, and peas buffered a fall c f is per
quarter.
