MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, OCTOBER 21

We have been slow during the week for every article, but
without material change in prices. The tone of the trade may
be considered to have been somewhat firmer yesterday at Li-
verpool and Wakefield, and there was a considerable fatting off
in the supply of Wheat to the latter. Our market to-day calls
. . . .

rates of our last are fully maintained

WISBECH CORN MARKET. OCTOBER 21.
PRICES TO THE GROWER.
We have had a good deal of net fallen every day this week,
which has prevented thrashing, and has caused a small show of
grain here to-day. Wheat is Is. dearer, Oats dull, and Beans
rather higher.

NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE CORN MARKET,

OCTOBER 21

The supply of Wheat to-day from the interior was good, but
we had a great many very interior samples. The best parcels
were selected for seed, and also by our millers, at fully last
week's rates: other sorts could only be disposed of by sub-
mitting to a reduction of Is. per quarter. There are no ar-
rivals Coastwise this week, owing to contrary winds; but a
fair amount of business was transacted in foreign samples, at
rather over the rates of last Satin day. 'Malting Barley finds
buyers at my quotations; and in the value of Grinding no
alteration. ltye, Peas. and Beans dull sale, but not cheaper.
Old Oats of good quality command is. qer quarter more
money, and dry new are in request, at full prices. No im-
provement can be noted in the value of Flour, as the dealers
are holding off for fresh arrivals.

PETERBOROUGH CORN MARKET, OCT. 21.
The Supply of Wheat and Barley is good, but that of Oats and

Beans short. Wheat fully maintains :ate rates. Fine Barley
is in demand at full prices, inferior sorts is. to 2s. cheaper. No
change in the value of Oats and Beans.

WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET, OCT. 20.

The reported arrival of Wheat is good, yet having no south
vessels here, there is not a good show of new; the prices of last
week are generally exceed( d, and the demand tolerably exten-
sive. No change in the value of Barley, but the common aua-

lities go off slowly. Oats and Shelling make prices fully equal
to those of this day week. Beans and other articles without
change.

LEEDS CORN MARKET. OCT. 17.

The arrivals of grain continue rather large, but the quantity
of fine new English Wheat offering is small, and finds buyers at
barely last week's rates. IVhile all other qualities move off

lower. Oats id. perst. cheaper. In Beans no alteration.

BIRMINGHAM CORN MARKET, OCT. 18.
During the present week the wheat trade has been dull, but
