THE COUNTRY MARKETS.
MAiChIESTIR, FEL 2.—The same monotonous and unin-
teresting features as we have had to notice for some time past
have continued to characterise the trade since our last report,
a very limited demand being experienced for all articles, with
a tendency towards lower prices. Liberal supplies of oats,
oatmeal, and flour from Ireland continue to be received at
Liverpool and Runcorn ; but from abroad the imports are only
moderate this week, the chief item being 4,542 sacks of French
flour. Our market this morning was exceedingly dull, and
wheat receded in value Id to 2d per 701 b. Where sales were
made in flour a reduction of Is per sack had to be submitted
to; but so few transactions occurred in this article that our
quotations remain almost nominal. Oats declined Id per 451 b,
and oatmeal 6d per load, with an extremely slow sale for the
latter article.

FEB. 2.—Wheat, per quarter, 30s to 48s
barley, 25s to 30$; oats, 16s to 20s ; beans, 30$ to 33s ;
peas, 30s to 325. Fat hogs, 75.9 d to 8s ; porkers, 8s Od to 8s 3d
per score. Poultry—Geese, each, Os Od to Os Od; fowls, per
couple, 3s Od to 3s 6d ; ducks, per couple, 3s 6d to 4s Od ;
butter, per lb, Is ld to is 2d ; eggs, 10 for Is.
WORCESTER, F'a. 2.—The weather is very damp, and
most of the samples of wheat brought to market are out of
condition ; for these the rates of last week cannot be obtained,
and wheat must be quoted at 6d to Is per quarter less money
than at last market day. The top price of good wheat must
be quoted at 15s 6d to 16s. per bag, but the general run is
disposed of at 15s. Grinding barley 2s 9d per bushel; and
malting qualities, 333 d per bushel. Malt must be quoted as
low as 7s per bushel, and the very best samples, 7s 6d. Eng-
lish oats (old) 3s 3d per bushel ; Irish. 2s 6d to 2s 9d ; new
English, 2s 6d per bushel. Beans may be quoted at 13s per
bag for English, and 10s 6d to Its for foreign. Peas for
feeding 356 d., and boilers 4s per bushel. Winter vetches 5s
to 5s 4d per bushel,
Stourbridge market, on Friday, was fairly attended, but not
much business was transacted. Wheat averaged 15s to Iss 6d
per bag. For barley a slow demand, it 3s to 3s 4d per bushel.
