SIR-Since iais day week there has been a
further advance III tile prices of grain and flour,
though the sales OF the latter have been mnch
diminished; the rapid rise which has followed
the late demand for this article has placed il in
situation which will check MATERIAL, its c0u-
sumption, while fine wheats, as hitherto since
the opening of the ports, are likely again to OBJ
tain preference with the milers and dealers,
even at comparatively higher prices; indeed
hui for the cause which has already been as
signed, that of the continued dry weather, il is
doubtful whether -four would have experienced
the late demand. The enquiries for both wheat
and oats in the last few days have beer numer-
Gus. and considerable sales have take place at
higher prices: the imports OF those articles lat
terly have been light, winch circumstance, ac-
companed by that of mode rate stocks on hand
previously, and the prospect of diminished sup
plies for short time TO come, may serve to
protect the market against any immediate de-
cline.
Thesmarket to-day commenced with the of.
ferng by auction OF 1900 ban rels of Philad plia
New York, Baltimore and Virginia flour: of
the first 500 bbs. we're sold at 1Ss. Ass. 3d.--of
the second, so bbis, at I7s.-of the third, $50
bbls. al AS. Sd, 4Ss.-and of the last $50 bills
al AS AS. Cd. per Dbl: the remainder were
Withdrawn. Before the above sales took place
there appeared, from the great number of
country dealers present. a strong probability
OF much business being done; it was found,
however, that the prices AT which the holders
OF nour had resolved TO sell exceeded consider
ably their expectations, and consequently the
Kidding was rot so brisk as had been calculated
upon. The business done subsequently in flour
by private treaty was very tril1ing. and il was
with difficulty that !ss. could he obtained fur
evan small parcels eft Philadelphia, ~ "A AIS Cd.
for Baltimore, aud 46 4Gs. Cd. for New York.
For wheat aud oats there was fair demand,
AID prices were fully maintained; of the for
mer. hnc samples of foreign continue TO be in
most reguest.-in barley. beans and oatmeal
there was little done.-Of TO days market
Biay observe, that while prices are generally
mucii higher than those obtainable on this day
week, they may he considered lower than on
Saturday; indie ed gouris fully Is per bill lower.
