Therefore allowing that the qusntity of Flour In this
State lett by early closing OF the canals and that
manufactured from Wheat collected during the winter
is equal to what Is usually. will this year be taken
from the Western tupples-we can safely calculate up
on a quantity equal TO the above estimate Of Western
supplies reaching tide water ess what will go through
Csnsds) during the Spring and Summer up to lst sep
TENDER, and the question which most interests our Eu'
ropean friends is how much OF these supplies can be
spared for export any reasonable commercial price
arrive at which, we make the following calculation

Now 1t 10 not pretended that only 900 barrels OF
Flour will be shipped from this port previous to
st of September But In view OF the extravsgant
statements recently put forth OF hundreds OF millions
OF bushels In this country, and that the quanuty oil

the capacity Of transportation is II otsurpnsing when
the facts they can be come at are put upon
paper, how people can be led away by their r"dStnd
itons or perhaps by more interested motives
In review Of the above estimates and calculations
made verify believe rom the best data which can
be obtained, and allowing for all reasonable errors OF
under or over estimates ans taxing INTO conhoerAuon
the fact well known TO al engaged in the trade that the
usual supplies of Flour received at Newiork and the
NewEnglsnd markets from New'Orlesns and other
Southern places during the Winter have all been divert
ed by the export demand to Europe-eaving not only
the City Of NewYork Boston and other Eastern places
but Philadelphia. Baltimore and Richmond almost en-.
rey bare of stock we are led to the irresistible con
clusion, that II ss large quantity OF Wheat and Flour
10 taken for export from this port during the next four
months were last year In the same time, we shall
have serious competition between the consumers in
this country and the consumers of Europe for the STAFF

In answer to our inquiries regarding Corn we have
the following; BEshsls.
The quantity Of Corn rec at Toedon 1896 was lO5OOO
Do do do Cleveland d.. $4,000
Total for the year. l6620oo
There will be rec Toledo to Sept l. as say 100000
Do do do Cleveland do. 100000
Do other ports on Lake Erie do. 100000
Total in ls47 TO let Sept lss7---.-.--...l $4,000
The above places comprise all that export any Corn Of
consequence beyond Buffalo. The small qusntity in
comparison to what hsc been expected 10 accounted for
by the Losses sustained Last Winter In the eshets
which inundated the States Of Ohio and ndlsns-sweep-
ing of immense qusnites OF Corn, which In those
States s stacked and left the helds along the
banks Of the river and the great amount drawn through
the Southern channels Of communication 20 EewOr-
leans by the high prices paid there during the Winter
There will however be quite surplus from this state,
equal in all probability 10000 bushels. PRO. TO let
september--msking total receipt at wide water Of
about 600 600 bushels Corn. 5. S. Co.
