for their immediate wants; chiefly ct new Irish
Wheat. and at decline OF Id to Cd per 20 lbs.

Flour in the market, nor is it much sought after
of East India Flour, the sales are becoming ex-

every day gaining ground. A considerable guam
titv has also been taken this week by starch ma
nufacturers.
Bonded Grain and Flour have been quite ne
elected for some weeks past, nor does there ap-
pear much prospect OF ear Improvement; since
