kUGAR AND MoLAssEs-The market has con.
tinued quiet throughout the week. There have
been DO transactions whatever TO report in mo.
lasses, while sugar has been moving in only a re-
tail and jobbing way. There has been some in
curry from large buyers for round lots Of sugar,
but prices have not met their views and hold
els have continued finn with their rates, as there
will be very little accession to the stock of Cuba
sugar from this time until the next crop. Sales

Cuba sugar. There were no receipts during the

FLoUR-In the first portion of the week Just
closed there was considerable movement ia all
grades of -four but as the week advanced sales
fell OF materially as the stock became reduced
tOr Cnerlng6 were COnlne0 10 very Smau lOts, ana
the demand was principally for superfne and
double extra, of which the market was almost
depleted, and for the choicer grades of old wheat
-four. which latter composed but small portion
of the stock on hand. Ia consequence of a very
reduced stock holders have continued firm with
their prices, especially for the scsrcer brands,
and rates have advanced fully soc. u barrel on
supeIfne and double extra, since our last weekly
report. Receipts during the week were IL lis
bbIs. Sales foot up 5000 bills, and exports 36SS
