ST. PAUL. Jan Is, 1852.
The change in our markets has varied but
little for the past week. The only change Of
consequence has been in tea, coffee, sugar and
gun powder but our merchants are actually
selling for less figures than in Chicago or Mil
waukee. Prime Rio coffee is quoted in NJ .
waukee at "a cents. The same quality our
merchants are offering at 2O@2l cents. Pork
and grain during the past week has been COM
ing in quite brisk, but the prices remain un.
changed. ...
