The Corn MARKET.
Immediately subsequent to the departure of the
last Steamer the markets fully realized the up
ward tendency noticed upon the Sd, and which
was maintained till about the 18th.
AT that time the best western canal flour had
reached 46s. per Dbl. White Indian corn had
been quoted at COS. per quarter, and yellow at 5Ss
Since then, however, owing to the extreme favor
abeness OF The weather, and the promising ap-
pearance of the growing crops, the stability of
the market has been materially shaken,
aud the declining disposition clearly evin-
ced; the last three markets had been UNI
usually dull, and the transactions of yester-
day particularly of an exceedingly
limited character. They closed with 40s. As
I'd. for best western canal; Am wheat lis. lbs.
3D. per 20 lbs. Indian corn white, ASS a 52s per
quarter, which the very best quotations to be
obtained. Corn meal 2ls 25s. per bbl.; Phila-
dephia and Baltimore -four 39s. 4Os.; Ohio
37s 3ss and sour from 33s. to 35s Cd.
The arrivals of wheat from Ireland, either of
home growth or foreign returns, during the last
fortnight have been very considerable, as also
have been the imports from the United States
tor week or ten days. Heavy loss has taken
place in flour and neal by leakage, which has
rendered large quantity understandable.
The rumors of temperance of the potato
disease, though unconfrmed, have not yet fully
subsidized, bu, they do not exercise the smallest
influence upon the market.
THE COTTON MARKET.
The market, though huc tuating in the early
part of the month, las now assumed a steader
aspect, and advanced fully Id per pound. The
sales for the week ending yeste rday evening,
amount to SO, 900 bales, of which $500 have been
taken on speculation, and 4, 400 for export.
The American descriptions consist OF 1000
bales of Upland, at Gid. I'D; l2,l4C
Orleans, at SD. Sid. Alabama and Mo
bile, at 81 q 7sd., and 100 Sea Island, at I'D
alsd. for middling, ordinary and fair, and god
I'D. for fine.
The stock now in port is estimated at 500, 00t
bales, against 1872 900 last year-the American
proportion is computed at 100000 bales, beini
I2S,O 900 bales less than it was then.
THE PROVISION MARKET.
The imports of Beef have been SMALL ant
with light stock large business has bee
done-best U. S. prime mess is quoted at COS.
95s. per barrel, Or0lndry, OBS COS, hioso, oos
TO Cos. per barrel. Pork is more enqulred after

Best U. s. mess is worth, for old, Cos. t
7os per barrel; new, 70s. to 7ss.; old prim
