crease to France, 45,000. Total increase in exports,

BREADSTUFFS.—FIour was in good demand, and prices
had advanced to the extent of 25 cents per barrel from
the lowest point during the previous depression. With
this advance, our present quotations conform, but the
extreme rates are not readily obtained for shipping quali-
ties. Wheat of good sound quality is very scarce, and
prices have advanced 5 and 6 cents per bushel. Indian
corn with rather scant supplies, and prices had risen 2 to
4 cents per bushel. • Corn meal in moderate demand, at
$3,121 to 481,023 per barrel.
PROVISIONS.—AIthough prices for pork are somewhat
lower, still there is a fair demand for consumption and
export ; the stock in this market is less than it has been,
at the same time in the season, for years. We quote
mess pork, $l4l b Sl5; prime, .Sl3l to .8'131; clear,
417. Lard is in small stock, and the demand fair, at
from 94-c. to 91c. ; barrels and kegs, 101 c. Cut meats are
more plenty. Bef is in fair demand. We quote or-
dinary qualities and country, lower : ,B`9l to SlO for
prime mess ; and 43'5 to S'sl for city mess. Beef hams,
ordinary, Sin to ,B'l4 ; extra, ,:815 to 4154. Batter :
stocks large and prices irregular. Cheese : Light stock ;
sales from Bc. to 98c., as in quality.
NAVAL STORES.—Moderate sales of spirits of turpen-
tine have been made at 57c. to 60c. ; the last sales of
rough turpentine were at 4r4 50e. to S'4 75c. North
county common rosin at el 40c. to ,8160 c. Tar, S'2 371 c.
to 431 50c.

luoN.-The market remains very quiet. English bars
are dull and nominal, common can be bought at ,565. Of
Scotch pig we have but to note sales of a few hundred
tons to arrive, at 533 to 535, and in a small way here at
S'37 50c. to SlO, six months.
LEAD.-There has been an extensive speculative move-
ment in pig, and 1,700 Spanish and English, here and to
arrive, have been sold at S 6 121 c. to S 6 75c., cash,
showing a considerable advance; more is now asked, the
quantity on sale being thus materially reduced.
