Corn Market, Aug. 20, Int
Ain—But little occurred yesterday wonby of no.
Ike ; yet as the declining vale of our market may lead
to important results, in which you take so mush in.
tenet, I trust 1 shall not be consideael ;IMOD', in
agars offering you my remarks.
In coosequence of the difficulty of malting sales for
the last week or two many of the corn vessels have
been detained ; therefore the supply for yesterday's
market was not so large as it otherwise would have
been; what sales were effected were at a reduction of
per quarter, but nothing like a eeersace refold be
made. The market remains overloaded. A ranch
greater reduction must yet take place before the supply
sad demand will be in their fair proportions. The
poverty of the farmers has caused them to lose all
tantroul over the markets, pour rates and taxes must
be paid, therefare they must sell at any price. Be.
pealed losses have made the dealers cautious. I do
not think speculation will be freely entered into until
the pries of good Wheat falls to ■bout 30s. per guar•
ter, to this point the country markets are eery fast
approaching. Beneath are the average price of Jan.
I, 1792. likewise of August 10, 1922. It appears
Wb•at sad Oats are now about the same price, Rye
sad Barley 33 per cent. cheaper. Peas sr d Se.as
abut Ir per cent lower. Wrist prospect there is
fur landlords to get their Christmas rents, I leave them
to judge.
