LIVERPOOL, Nov. 28.—The British markets held up to
this time in the course of the present week are in general
reported to be well supplied by the growers, and with a fair
consumptive demand, the prices of Wheat and other grain
appear firm ; yet in cases where higher rates are required
buyers seem to demur, and any advance therefore is not rea-
dily obtainable for either English or foreign ; the trade in Ire-
land during the same period appears on the whole rather less
buoyant, but not materially depressed. Of Grain, Flour, and
Oatmeal, coastwise and from Ireland, the receipts into this
port since Monday last are unusually light, and except 300 qrs.
of Maize and 340 sacks of Flour we are still without arrivals of
Grain produce from any part of Europe, the 1723 barrels of
Flour noted in the same line being a returned parcel from Per-
nambuco; from the American States, however, the imports
include 8019 qrs. of Wheat, 4085 qrs. Indian Corn, and 21,052
barrels of Flour ; those from Egypt comprising merely 1400
qrs. Wheat and 625 qrs. of Beans. The weather since our last
has been cold, inclining to frost, but seasonable, and in this
direction autumn culture in many cases appears well nigh
completed. Intermediately from Tuesday last to this date, the
trade as regards Wheat assumed a more animated tone, in-
duced by considerable operations, chiefly in the best runs of
Foreign, for investment, and several purchases for inland
counties, on terms fully equal to, but not exceeding previous
quotations. Flour also continued to meet a good demand at
the extreme rates last noted ; and other articles, though not in
lively request, remained steady in value. At our market this
morning the Wheat trade, although rather less active than yes-
terday, continued healthy with a fair amount of busines, prin-
cipally on country and partly for Irish account, but little for
local purposes, in which all descriptions of English and Foreign
Wheats maintained Tuesday's currency, at the same time indi-
cating a slight tendency upwards. States and Canadian Flour
still moving off freely to consnmers and for shipment, both
sweet and sour were the turn dearer than Tuesday. with the
prospect of an extensive demand through the winter. Prime
French Flour, of which none remains here, would, if at hand,
rather exceed our highest quotations, whilst in Irish we have
no change to note. Malting Barley saleable at an advance of
Is. per qr. ; grinding samples, on the contrary, being in slow
request, barely supported late prices. Malt and Beans unva-
ried. Peas held on rather higher terms. Oats, upon a mode-
rate demand, were unaltered in value, and for good new Oat-
meal 225. 9d. per load was realised. Indian Corn on the spot
met a limited sale at Tuesday's quotations, and in floating car-
goes little business was apparent. We annex Tuesday's rates :

MANCHESTER, Nov. 29.—The trade here during the past
week has exhibited great firnirese on the part of holders, with
moderate consumptive demand at full prices for each article.
At our Exchange to-day the supply of samples of each article
is moderate. Suitable qualities of Wheat and Flour meet a fair
demand, at full prices. Oats and Oatmeal lather tend upwards,
as also Egyptian Beans. Other articles firm, at former rates.
PRESTON, Nov. 29.—We have still to notice the prevalence
of a firm feeling in the Corn trade, though the continued un-
willingness of dealers to meet the advance, has resulted in a
more limited amount of business. The arrivals this week,
principally of Oatmeal from Ireland, are to a fair amount. At
our Corn Market to-day there was a very large supply of Eng-
lish Wheat. Fine qualities, which were very scarce, maintained
full rates, whilst the greater bulk of the samples being of a very
inferior description were rather easier to purchase. In Irish
and Foreign no change. Flour as before. Irish Oats in very
short supply, and prices have still an upward tendency. For
farmers' Oatmeal rather higher prices were obtained, and Irish
remains firm at our last quotations. A good supply of English
Beans, at a slight reduction in value.

WAKEFIELD, Nov. 28.—The—reiorted arrival of Wheat is
small, but there is a fair show of samples, and, with a good
consumptive demand, all fresh qualities are cleared off at last
week's prices. There is a fair sale for Barley at the prices of
last Friday ; the recent decline in this article is causing more
demand. Oats and Shelling a:e scarce, and make full prices.
Beans meet a ready sale.

NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, Nov. 29.—There was a good
delivery of Wheat this morning from the country; and the
wind being rather more favourable, a part of the long-expected
supplies from the south have arrived. The demand proved
good, and prices ruled the turn in favour of the seller. The
inquiry for old foreign was quite of a retail character, and the
value remains unchanged. Malting Barley scarce, owing to
adverse winds, so that the little on sale readily brought full
prices. Grinding sold at late rates. Oats were in large supply
from the growers; coastwise the arrivals are also to a fair
extent. The sale was by no means active, but last week's
quotations were well supported for all descriptions of quality.
White Peas are held firmly at the late advance, and few in the
market. For Beans the demand is only limited, and no
alteration can be quoted in their value. Flour in demand at
last week's advanced rates.

WISBECH, Nov. 29.—There has been a fair quantity of
Wheat here to-day, which found a fair sale at last week's rates.
In other kinds of Grain no alteration.
DUBLIN, Nov. 28.—Our market has continued this week
without any alteration for eve.iy description of Grain, as well as
Indian Corn, and we do not make any change in our rates :
White Wheat.. 18s Od to 22s 6d I
Barley Ils ed to 15s Od

CORK, Nov. 29.—Prime Flours have had a ready sale, at late
prices ; the quantity on offer being large. no improvement can
be established as yet. Foreign Wheats are in better request,
and 21s. per barrel has been paid for prime Polish Odessa.
Indian Corn is unchanged in value. Thegrain market is more
scantily supplied. Wheat has an upward tendency. Barley
and oats support the late improvement.
