FLOUR AND MZAL.
We have to notice a decline In New York Flour since our last public*.
Lion. Sales have been made as low as 44 dots. cash ; 44 less 2 per cent
and 4.) on long credit. We alter our quotation accordingly. Bourke*
Flour has mostly disappeared from the market, and good Baltimore,
Howard.street, would command S dole. for City use. Some Richmond
County Flour has been sold at 4) doll. Our stock of Western Flour is
nearly exhausted; but as the Canal Is expected soon to be navigable, fresh
supplies are looked flr in 10 or 12 day.. Rye Flour continues very
scarce ; males were made yesterday at 34. Corn Meal has declined a little,

Tobacco continues to be a doll article, and in but little demand. The
sales of the week have been but little over 100 libdd. A lot of crossed
Seconds and Firsts at cent. below our lowest rates ; for *elections our
highest have been obtained, and In some case. a little over. Arrived this
week, 291 Ands. ; cleared for the West Indies, 89 hhds.
Flour Is at present a very dull article, there baying arrived, since oar
last, 10,069 barren., and k generally held at the landing by the owners or
agents, who bring it to market, and are anxious to sell, a circumstance
that always depresses prices.
FREIGHTS.
We have not beard of any vessels being taken up for Liverpool or
Havre over our former rates, which hare been repeatedly offered and e.
fused, in the expectation of better prices. Many are of opinion that'
further r ar wili take place and continue for some time.
