MORNIHG LEADER OEFIOH,
TUESDAY lYaEEEe, April Il, 1854.
The excitement in Flour noted yesterday was fully
maintained today Wheat also participating in it to
good degree. and strong speculative feeling was
manifested wheat being sold in large way for ship
ment The market before the afternoon dispatches
ruled at about yesterdays figures, and most Of the
sales Of the day we're effected at those rates. After
the report, however, there was material advance,
and very choice red double extra was held high
81 25 The market at the close may b. quoted l5g25c
higher, and very firm.
Wheat ruled lG2c higher than yesterday, with an
active speculative demand. At the close the market
was firm at a further advance.
Corn is about keeping pace with wheat in appreci-
ation sales being reported to-day at slO6 on track
and 81 OF from store The inquiry however, is light
RighWineI continue excited, and prices are un-
settled. Sales were made to-day at tl,l4 and s,l5
but at the close We doubt if any could have been
bought short Of to cents above these figures.
The most uopreoedentedlT rapid rise in these
leading Itiees in the larger markets, and the IN
certainty attending it, has greatly unsettled this
market. and holders find some difficulty in naming
prices while ordinary buyers slow TO operate, in
apprehension that there is something unsound in
this spasmodic movement. The whole thing has the
air Of Wild specus ton and il such it Is there is 10
telling when the descending scale will be reached,
ness even greater than its growth.
Other articles sre not materially changed.
