THURSDAY EVENING, Nov. 25, 1869. )
The grain market continues without
animation, and there is but little change
in quotations.. This, though, was to be
expected. We have in Wheeling a
higher market than in any other city
in the West. Our dealers seem satisfied
with a small margin, content that the
producer shall receive the highest pos.
sible figures for his produce. This &C
counts for the fact that there is less
fiuctuation in prices that in neighbor-
ing markets. Eggs are scarce and the
prices asked for them is outrageous.

show signs of activity. in this market
