Gonna perfect panic exists in regard
to this article of breadstuffs, and during
the week prices have advanced rapidly.
To-day, the market was excited, at 1880
1.30 for depot delivery. The sudden ad-
vance is evidently spasmodic, and con-
tinuance of the present prices cannot re-
main long. The surplus of corn through
out the entire corn region is below what it
was at this period last year, but the quau-
tity vet upon the market is very consider
able. The demand from the South, it is
true, continues undated, but there is
nothing which would indicate famine in the
land, particularly when every other article
of breadstuffs is much below the usual
average In st. Louis, we notice that the
market has advanced to 1.25, and in New
Orleans sales have been made at LAO. In
Atlanta on Monday last the market was ex-
cited and firm at l. COOL. 60 in car load lots
at depot. With the present prices, the
New Orleans market, owing 10 cheap
facilities by water, will soon be flooded,
and when the market is once overstocked
there will be a decline, when the tide of
shipments from Cairo up will be turned
this way, and consequently our dealers will
be enabled by shortness of route to supply
their former customers, and take In a part
of the the territory that at present receive
supplies from New Orleans. With the
present condition of things, our dealers
may be regarded in fortunate and healthy
condition, simply from the fact that they
are restricted by scarcity but indications
point to the fact that somebody will be
hurt. The transactions to-day amounted
to 1000 bushels sacked and delivered in
depot at 1.27J@I3O 2 bushel, sacked and
delivered in depot.
Corn MEAL-In sympathy with the ad-
vance in corn, meal has steadily appreci-
ated. with an advance during the week of
10c 4 bushel. We note shipments South
to-day of 600 bushels at 1.25 q bushel.
OATs-Prices contine steady. We quote
at 7O@75c q bushel sacked and delivered in
depot.
