uFLouR-Extreme dullness continues to be the
prevailing feature of the market under this head
ing. There is very little demand from city trade,
and none whatever for export, and ruling rates,
in the absence Of any quotable transactions, are
irregular, unsettled and exhibit Q wide range,
which may be attributed to more ample offerin GO
by recent receipts, q dull market, and increased
apathy on the part Of buyers. The only notice.
