Fyour.-Yesterday, before the receipt of the
Northern mail, the wagon price OF Flour was
s. Oe. The accounts received by the John Jay
up TO the 9th Of December, from Liverpool,
caused further improvement; the receipts were
SO small, and the wagon price so unsettled. that
we omit a quotation for the afternoon. Sales
were made, from sto es, at 5 so for standard qua
lity, and Sc for eslcted brands;-the same
prices were subsequently offered and not accepted.
Piaister Paris.-We advance our quotation of
Plaster; 1t is retailing at from S5 so to 90,
though some few dealers may not yet have charg-
ed more than 90. We presume the price, for
the present, will settle down at so.

New York Corn Erchange.-The news from
Europe published on Monday, gave some impulse
to the market; but that by the Columbia to Dec.

of great frmness. The sales of Friday (the last
business day) were extensive, chiefly for export
