RECEIPTS AND SHIPMENTS OF WHEAT AND FLOUR.
There is considerable speculation to the probable
future receipts of wheat and -four from this time TO
the LIT Of September. We think the general impress
sion has obtained that the receipts will fall off rapidly
although Of our best judges are OF opinion that
we shall receive 500 600 bushels of wheat in June,
july and August There is one thing pretty certain
if the present prices continue for sixty days there
cannot be much wheat left in first hands.
Last wear this time wheat selling in this market
at 6jc lO0c and the receipts for the week cores
bonding with the week just past were 80, 900 bushels,
acainst price Of 1900. BE and receipts OF SOOOO
tor the corresponding time this year.
Up to this time last season there had been shipped
400 bushels Of wheat and 10000 barrels Of flour and
for June July and August there export OF
80 COO barrels Of -four and sos 900 bushels of wheat.
We have shipped for this season - 600 bbls. OF
-four and 900 GOO bush. wheat or about the same a.
WAS shipped last season 10 the first day of September
Ii the crop Of 80 was large as Is generally estl-
mated the expectation of 800 900 bush. yet TO come
forward i. not exravagant The receipt OF an average
of 81 600 per week would amount to that hgure Tn
the other ard if the receipts should continue in any
the same period the shipments the LIST of September
will foot up at 800 600 bush. of wheat, and l2oOn
bbls of -four. Even these figures would not surprise
US although make no such prediction.
The Nec Orleans Price Current OF the 9th inst, re-
ports as follows:
The transactions in most departments have been on
limited scale during the past week, and our market
generally exhibits a lack of animation that IL quite
Unusual at this period of the season. The sugar crop
has been about disposed of but OF our other leading
staples cotton and tobacco, there is still fair supply
on hand, without prOpOrtiOnate number OF buyers,
many having closed their business aud departed at an
earlier period this season than usual
The New.Orlea banks losing considerable
