bates.

BnIZADSTUFFS.—In State and Western Flour there has
been an increased business, in part for export to Spain, and
with a reduced stock prices of the common and medium
grades have advanced 10 to 20 cents. The home trade are
burring freely of good fancies and extras, but the variations in
the prices of these is not so great as on the low grades. The
reeeip s are to a moderate extent, and it is doubtful whether
there will he any accumulation of stock to speak of before the
incoming of the new crop. The crop accounts are generally
favourable, and from the increased breadth of ground under
cultivation, there can be no doubt thar the yield of Wheat wil;
be an average one. The Persia's news is regarded as rather
favour-We than otherwise; Southern Flour has continued
in moderate request, and the market for the common grades is
10 to 20 cents better. Fancies and extras are also dearer, but
the advance is not proportionate with that and common qualities.
Tire supply of Wheat continues light, and, with an increased
inquiry, prices of the common qualities have advanced 2 to 3
cents. There is very little prime here, and prices are for the
most part nominal. The demand is mainly for home use.
though there has been something done for export since our last.
Tie a,lvices by the Persia are rather favourable, but prices in
Liverpool, London, and Glasgow are too low to warrant ship-
ments, notwithstanding the extreme low rates of freight. Corn
has arrived freely, and prices have receded 2 to 3 cents, with
only a limited business at the reduction ; sales closing at 84
to 85 cents for sound Western mixed, and 88 to 98 for
Southern, as in quality.

HOPS : The market is without now feature. Prime con-
tinue scarce, and wanted at fall prices, while other deecriptions
remain plenty and dull. The sales are 200 bales choice, on
speculation, supposed at. 11 cents, and 170 to 180 do., in lots,
9to 12 cash. The reports from the growing districts seem to
concur in their statements relative to the poor appearance and
backward state of the Vine. The price of Hops having been,
dntiPg the past year, low and unremunerative, farmers have
turned their attention more to other and better paying crops,
generally neglecting their Hop yards, while some have ploughed
them up, and used the land for other purposes. It is stated,
and generally believed, that in no case can more than an
aver,ge crop he made, while the probabilities seem to point to
a yield below that of last year.

IRON.—The market remains very quiet. Scotch Pig may
be quoted in awh tlesale way, 30 dots to 31 dole. Small lots
bring 31 dole 50e to 32 dole G_t meee In bars there is nothing
doing. Two invoices Russia Sheet, just arrived, remain
unsold. The Philadelphia North. American, of Saturday,
says :—" Very little movement ; and the prices of Pig Metal
rather favour the buyer. A sale of 500 tons Anthracite,
No. 2, was made at 25 dols on time, and small lots from store,
about previous quotations. In manufactured Iron there is not
much doing. Buts are steady, and Rails are more inquired
for, with the prospect of more activity after the Ist of July."
PROVISIONS : The market for Pork opened more active,
with an increased business, but subsequently a reaction took
place, and prices receded about ten cents. The receipts are
moderate, but in the absence of any export demand of moment
for some time past, and only a limited home consumption, the
stock is accumulating, and the market closes very flat. The
sales are at 22 dole 80c to 22 dots 85c for Mess, 19 dole to 19
dels 10c foi Prime, 25 dole 50c to 25 dols 7.5 e for Clear, and
19 dols 75c to 20 dole for Prime Mess ; included in the sales,
seller's option, between the 15th July and Ist October,
at 23 dais; buyer's option, from now till let October, 23 dols
50c; and Prime, seller's option, thirty days, 18 dots 50c. The
Beef Market remains steady, with a fair home trade demand
There is nothing of moment doing in Beef Hams, but prices
are unchanged ; sales 110 brie at 23 dots to 24 dole for good
and extra. Becon is cc -tree, and wanted at full prices. Salted
Middles would bring 11 c to 13-Ic, as in quality. Small
pare is Smoked Wesfern Sides brought 12ic to 13ic. Cut
Meats have declined one eighth of a cent, with only a limited
business; sales, 285 birds, at 9tc for Shoulders, and 10;ic to
Ilc for Hams. Lard is lower, and dull, the demand being
wholly for the home trade. Butter is dull at 16c to 21c for
Ohio, 17c to 22e for common to good State, and 23c to 25e
felt favourite and choice State dairies. Cheese is dull at 5-le
to 104-t.
