Wellington Markets.
Messrs Laery and Campbell report that the week has beon noted for no particular briskness, although doing: for only hand-to-mouth lines. Prices m all cases have been fully maintained and the only alteration to note is m the item of potatoes, and there is a decidedly uneasy fooling m making quotations. Advices from the South are that there is a decline m price, but quotations are " if obtainI able," from which may be gathered that i farmers are hardly prepared to meet the fall, and are trying to maintain prices. Flour is m very fair supplu at last quotationf. The horse sale on Saturday was not well attendended, which may be accounted for by the very unsatisfactory state of the weather.
