SMITHFIELD MARKET.

The number of Cattle was short, and trade for the
best quality of Beef was: something better, at 2d. per
stone higher. The best, quality of Mutton was more in
demand. The best quality of Veal advanced 2d. per
stone. The trade in Pigs was much the same : and best
qualities of Lamb were more in request at a little ad-
vance. Beasts, 443 ; Sheep and Lambs, 9,460 ; Calves,
409 ; Pigs, 304. ! Beef, 2s. 10d.. a 3s. 4d. ; Mutton. 3s. a

COLONIAL MARKET.

There were few public sales of Colonial produce, and
altogether
~the market exhibits a quiet appearance.
West India Raw Sugar was taken for the sup-
ply of actual wants only, at lower prices. In the
Refined Sugar market some sales were made at
745. to 775. for low to good Lumps. The few sales made
in Coffee did not alter the character of the market ;
good ordinary Ceylon brought 735. to 735. 6d. per cwt.
Cotton in brisk'requestat_advancing prices.

'TEA MARKET:

The market was very dull, but holders were firm and
obtained full rates ; largo public sales have been declared
for next week.

TALLOW MARKET.

The holders appeared more inclined to realize, and
prices gave way. The best Yellow Candle was freely
offered at 475. 9d., while for forward delivery sellers were
met with at 41s. per cwt. There were inquiries after
South American Tallow, but the small quant.ty in the
haxds of the merchants precluded purchases of moment.

WHEAT MUCH CHEAPER THAN
FLOUR.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SIR,—You generally open the columns of your
valuable paper to exposing gross humbug, from what-
ever quarter it may proceed.
It is universally known and admitted, that in the
last fortnight, wheat of all sorts has fallen in value 6s.
per quarter imperial ; and still at the same time the
Leeds Mercury, in its quotation of the Wakefield
Corn Market, has not quoted any positive decline.
Is it the avowed object of the party who furnishes the

list of prices to deceive the public as to the real state
of the market ? The result is, that in this district,
particularly in this borough, flour is ss. per sack
higher than the relative value of wheat, and the poor
are deprived of the blessing of cheap bread.
Your insertion of this will oblige
Wakefield, Aug. 25. A CONSTANT READER.
[The Leeds Mercury, no doubt, gives the market
prices as furnished by accredited parties, awl can
have no interest, except in furnishing correct returns.
As our Correspondent is well acquainted with the
tragic, he would have conferred a favour by explain=
ing hat many people regard as inexplicable—the
high price of, flour as compared with wheat, for this
anomaly is not confined to Wakefield.]
