BALTIMORE MARKET-MAacH a6.

Flour
Ho,oard Street Eom.-The weekly receipts
continue very abundant, aud, within small frac-
lion, are equal to those of the last. Since our
last weekly Report, prices have receded, owing
TO the combined causes of very full supplies. the
absence Of advices from Europe, the Inactivity in
the neishboring markets, and the comparatively
limited purchases, in consequenepef the high
ireishts to England. On Monday last some par
cells were sold from store at Sc 439 per Dbl. On
Tuesday, several parcels we're sold at 6 S7a.
On Wednesday and Thursday, from 1000 to 5000
barrels were sold at 6 s5. To-day e sale Of 100
bbls. was made at 6 S7a, and another Of $50 bbls
at 25. The market is somewhat unsettled to-
day, and indicates more frmness than for some
days past. Some of the larger holders decline
operations to-day at Is and E Sit, and demand
6 81. The wagon price opened on Monday at
e S7a, but on the evening Of that day, and the
whole Of Tuesday. it stood at 6 as. From We'd
nesday until to-day inclusive, the wagon rate
has ranged from 90 to l2a; most Of the re-
ceipts appear to be taken at the latter rate.
City Mills Fiour--We know Of no transaction
this week. The parcels in first hands are held
to abide the result Of further adyices from Eu-
rope.
Susguehanna Flour. On Tuesday lot of
100 bbls. was sold at E 37a. On Thursday a
sale of 1000 barrels was made at IS, cash; a
lot was sold to-day at the same price, and pur-
chasers would give that rate for large parcels.
GRAM
Hheai. Some parcels of Bay Wheat have
been brought to market during the week, but the
quality has generally been ordinary. On Mon
day lot Of prime red was sold at 81 per bush.
Since then, the sales have ranged from 80 Tor
good parcels, down to IS cents per bushel for
very inferior. The hatness of the Flour market,
noticed above, has had corresponding effect on
that for Wheat. On Monday lot Of white Day
was sold at 81, and on Tuesday lot at so.
During Monday and Tuesday, | SIS was paid at
the City Mills for red wagon wheat; but on We'd
nesday and Thursday the price declined to so
per bushel. A parcel prime red Susquehanna
was sold Oh Saturday last at 40per bushel; on
Tuesday parcel was sold at 81; on Thurs
day two parcels OF prime red Yere sold at 50,
and to day lot of 1900 BUSHELS white was -es'd
