FLouu.—There has been considerable excitement in the
flour market the past week, and all kinds have rapidly ad-
vanced and are still tending upward. High grades parts"
cularly very scarce and firm, and have now touched a
higher point than we have ever had occasion to notice.
The sales have been at $8 25 a 8 75 for Western super-
fine ; $9 a 9 75 for common extras, the latter price for
choice brands ; $lO 25 a 11 30 for medium do. ; and $l2 a
$l3 50 for good and choice, including Genesee, Cauada,
lOhio, and Michigan, and favorite brands are scarce at the
latter rate. Illinois and Southern Ohio brand hoop ranges
from $l2 50 a 15 per barrel for good and choice extr?Ji•
St. Louis flour is scarce and firm, and leading faind7
brands of this description have touched very high figures.
The sales have ranged from $l5 to 17 per barrel, favonte
brands selling from $l6 50 a 17 per barrel. Southern
flour is firm but has been quiet. We quote Brandywine
at $ll 25 ; and choice family brands Baltimore at
$l5 $53 a $l6 50 per bol. Corn Meal has been selling at
$5^25 for good shipping brands. In Rye Flour there in
very little doing and prices are nominally the same.

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.

TENNESSEE RAILWAY.—The Governor of Tennesse,a_
,
his recent Message, made the following favourable state-
ment regarding the railroads of that State Most of the
railroads in the State have been turned over to the COrai
panies respectively owning them, and are being repairer
and run by said companies. They have been turned wire
by the Government on terms liberal and advantageouo•
The road from this city to Chattanooga, and from that pity
to the Virginia line—a distance of four hundred mile,
owned by three companies—is, as a general
in splendid order. Much of the track has bet;
re-laid, the embankments well dressed, and
cuts well ditched and drained. The bridge near tile
Virginia line is nearly finished, and the connection
the East complete. Upon the roads in Middle and Wes
Tennessee repairs are progressing rapidly, and the indi-
cations are that the companies have a profitable businea4
p
before them, as there is a large amount of travel and 0:
large demand for freight as the country becomes quiet Lula
business is resumed. As a general thing, I may .say these
companies have been reorganised upon a loyal basis and ore
controlled by Union men. Especially is this true of East
Tennessee. The Edgefield and Kentucky, and the Lodi?"
vine, Clarksville, and Memphis roads have been placedl
the hands of receivers, as the law directs. They are io .
hands of reliable and energetic men, and I have all coo'
deuce that they will be manaued to advantage.
