trary winds) having toren limited, we have had more business
doing in good qualities of English and Irish at a small ad-
vance on our previous quotations.
Oats of good quality are scarce, and prices fully maintain-
ed. There has been a fair demand for sour Flour ; prices,
however, remain without any alteration. The demand fur
