WHOLESALE PRICES CURRENT.

In the absence OF. any considerable transactions
in the Ii e of Groceries and Provisions, it is i'm
possible to give. more than nominal quotations,
which follow below. There has been no marked
change in any leading articles, with the exception
of Coal OIL, candles, india Rubber Boots and To-
bacco. The stocks of these three first articles
were very light in the Fall and hardly adeouate
to the prospective consumption. Being speedily
exhausted the prices rapidly advanced and have
been firmly maintained. The stocks of Tobacco
were larger, but considerable quantity being
withdrawn for the Montana trade, in the Fall, oc.
casoned corresponding rise in this article. The
prices Of Flour have been very vaclating ad.
vancing to $50 in January, declining slowly in
February, and noW.r rating from S22 to $24-ac-
cording to inferior and standard brands.

sLIQUoRS-The liquor trade has been excessively
dull. Some dealers were preparing to transfer
their stocks to Montana, but abandoned the idea
on account OF the singular conduct Of the Collect
or OF u. S. Internal Revenue, who has been re-
ported as conhscating everything coming from
this side which does not bear The Inspectors mark.
The legality OF his conduct is now being inVesti-
gated and VIII probably form The subject of fnr.
Their communication. If his conduct is authorized
by law, Dealers in. Idaho win find themselves in a
precarious position. 1 Brandjes Domestic. SIS so !:
