Flour and Indian Corn, and the rates of the latter
declined fully IS. to 3s per Or An active Irish de-
mand has since arisen, and prices have nearly re-
covered those quoted in our last. We make little
change in Wheat or Flour; the demand to-day is
steady, and increased trmncss is apparent in the

advance is asked for bonded. Flour is in better de-
mand, for delivery on the LIST February.
