Mercury doesnot wet the glass because cohesive force is greater than adhesive force . Therefore no mercury particles are left behind on glass.

Hi there...
It's because of force of adhesion between the molecules which is more or less than force of cohesion.
In mercury force of adhesion between the molecules and the glass is less than the force of cohesion as corollary to thatmercury does not wet in case of water it is vice versa..
