of 5000 barrels Of which were fresh ground at

FLOUR. Last week the receipts Of Flour were
small, and the exports comparatively large
chiefly Flour previously purchased. The bust
ness done from stores was moderate, at from 81
so to 81 81, and in some instances at fraction
more About 1900 barrels OF stored Flour were
priced at Is to a 90. The wagon price rang
ed from 25 to so, closing at the latter.
We have taken considerable pains, aided by
those engaged in the uade, to ascertain the &C
tuai number of barrels of Flour in the warehouses
in Town. and find our entire stock is about
Il, 400 barrels. ship now loading for Liver
pool will carry nearly 1000 barrels, which Will
reduce it to little upwards " 10 600 barrels, to
meet at less, go, 900 barrels due to the country
for stored Flour.
A large proportion Of the Flour now in town
has been received and inspected since the first
day of April. and is not subject to re-inspection
before the first day OF August Dealers in this
market generally endeavor to keep the Flour as
fresh as possible; but the general impression is,
that this is an unfavorable season for keeping
Flour, and that more Flour will turn sour than
usual, IN consequence of good deal OF wheat hav-
ing been ground through the winter in damp
state. This impression has been strengthened
by the fact of some boat Potomac Flour, receiv-
ed in Dad order, having become sour.
Monday. 1.-THE 4th OF JULY no business trans
acted. Yesterday. (ruesday) the wagon price
was 4 so, very little received. We were not
advised of any transactions from stores. A few
lots of stored Flour were priced at so. From
present appearances we are inclined TO believe
that there will be Slight Improvement in the
price of Flour. especially that fresh ground.
