Flour continued in good request yesterday,
at prices trife better, and Whisky was still
steady. Groceries were without alteration.
Red Wheat was still in good demand and
White dull. Shelled Corn declined &c. per
busbel. Oats were in moderate demand, and
Rye and Barley dull.
Provisions were decidedly dull, and very
few transactions occurred, though holders
were not pressing their stocks upon the
market. Mess Pork was freely offered at
ST. but sold, we believe, at Bl6 81, the terms
being kept private. Bulk Meats and Lard
were dull, and nothing was done in Bacon.
The rates of Hogs were nominal, none COM
ing in, and butchers paying $5@5 60 per
Genital, gross.

Thursdays New York papers did not arrive
last evening, the mail failing of necessity,
aud the express happening to miss. Wednes-
days New York Evening Post observes:
Stocks remain quiet but very firm, and
pIices, on the whole are higher than yester-
day. The business, it will be seen, is un-
usually small, both for cash and on time.
The Commission-houses are buying in small
amounts, and Stocks continue in scanty
supply. Many of the Railroad Shares are
again scarce for delivery.
Pacific Mail is pressed for sale and fell to
8415 against 8711 at this time yesterday.
Considerable dissatisfaction is expressed by
some of the stockholders at the loss involved
in the sale of the Puget Sound line. The
market closes without material change.
New York Central touched 80H, leaving off
at 800. Michigan Central is SO bid; Ga
lena 72%.
The new State Skies of 1868 are quoted
l02X@l04. Sales have been made in AL
banY at lO3H@lO3A. The Seyens of 1864
are 104 bid, los asked.
Government Bonds are steady, with very
few Offering. The Coupon Fives of 1874 are
93CG94; the Fives of 1865, 9l@93. State
Stocks are very dull. Tennessees sold at 70,
but at tie close were held at ! q per cent.
higher.
The same number of the Epening Post re-
marks:
Wall street is calm. Money if any thing,
is shade deaTer on mercantile Paper, but in
no quarter do we notice any pressure of de-
mand, the market generally having very
comfortable appearance. First class Paper,
to run four and six months, well-indOrsed
rules about 8Cg9 per cent, and choice thirty
and sixty acceptances 7@7H. The selection
of good Paper has become meager, and there
is much closer scrutiny of credits. On call
there is free supply at per cent. interest.
TTeasury-notes are less inquired after and
holders are willing to accept l02@l02N for
tie twelve -per-cents. The smaller denom-
nations are salable on a basis of 81 per
cent.
The Foreign Exchange Market shows no
change, the mail for Europe having closed.
The last transactions in sterling were 1861
@l07.
The disbursements from the Sub Treasury
open large, ar promise to be very heavy
before the week closes. The payments on
account Of Bullion are also heavy, and the
business ofthe Assay Office will continue act
i've for some time yet. About six millions
ere in process of coinage, with the prospect
Of further arrivals from Europe.
The liabilities of Messrs. De Forest, Arm
strong & Co, the dry. goods dealers, who
failed few days ago, are, we understand
but little short Of 81, 800, 00O Of which nearly
one-fourth is preferred Paper. The firm, il
we mistake not, compromised in 1857.
