The general quiet which has ruled in the market
for some weeks past, has been relieved only by an
active movement in clover seed which, till toward
the close, was readily taken for shipment at ful'
prices. On Friday and Saturday, however, the
market was weaker, and sales were made at de-
cline. The bulk Of the sales reported during the
week at $500 were to fl orlers and that priee IN
cludes buyer's commission. Timothy Is sc"rce and
wanted for shipment, and is tending upward.
Flour is in moderate demand, but holders are
firm and have, generally. full confidence in the fu
ture Of the market
Wheat continues in light receipt, and the sales
reported have all been at iull prices, though the
tone of the market has not been uniformly main
tanned. Corn continues dull and heavy, and trans
actions have beon reported at decline. Oats
barley and rye have ruled very quiet.
There has been an increased activity in mess
pork though the demand has not been very great,
and has been chiefly for inferior grades. Holders
Of heavy mess are firm at full prices. In other ar
tioes under the head Of provisions there svery lit
tie movement to report. Smoked meats are in
light local demand.
We note a decline in New Orleans sugar, while
the arrival Of lower grades has widoned the range
and stiu further reduced inside quotations.

companying summary, which comprises the trans
