middling and the high grades. which were
respectively quoted last evening at l512,
1873, l6, l6A and l61sc. The market opened
under the favorable influence of last even
ings Liverpool quotations, and fair bust
ness was done during the morning, partly
at further improvement of Is a h.c. In
fact, some desirable lots brought even a
grearter advance. The demand then ex-
hibited less spirit, and after the receipts of
the dispatches reporting a decline at Liver
pool, the previous improvement was lost,
and toward the close prices were even
weaker than last evening, as shown BY the
above quotations.
