the latter, OWING 20 the lace thas 1ne q1Ae1ence
between seller this month and seller November
vanished to-dny. Liverpool was quoted
stronger, and New York was some 3@4c per bu
higher, which was attributed to falling off in
receipts, owing to the difficulty OF procuring
receipts we're rather light Cfor to-morrow), and
Erie Canal freights were dull and lower. All
these things tended to stimulate buying for ship
ment, though the shipping demand was princi-
pa1ly for other grades than no. spring, The
and large purchases we're made for the month,

parties who, up to this morning, had only re-

Corn WAS active, and higher, advancing 19@
&c on the prices of yesterday, though the i'm
provement WAS not sustained to the close OF the
session. New York Was reported stronger and
scarce, and this, with the reduction in Eastern
froights (canaD and the better supply Of vessels
here, coupled with light receipts, caused our
shippers to take hold much more freely than is
their usual wont, though much Of the freight
room engaged to-day was for corn which ls ex-
pected to bo delivered on contract tomorrow.
Then the shorts bought very freely. Indeed,
the short interest for November seemed to be
very large, and the idea WAS general that
after ell we hare hoard about big stocks, wo
probably haye less in store than the two and
half million bu OF No. 2 reported last Tuesday.
There arc some people OIL Change who have no
great confidence in figures, though the bins have
Eccn measured recently. But then the Grain
Inspector did not measure up tic receipts out
against that grain, aud it is contldentia!iy whis-
pered that, as e result of Mr. Armour doing 30
in tho case Of tho elevators he has 1atoly taken
hold Of, lie finds himself on the wrong side OF
the fence, to the tune Of. we don't want to say
how many thousands Of dollars. It is thought that
this amount represents the value fthe corn eaten
up by the rats during Mum & Scott's lengthy
administration. There is no use in blinking the
fact that the great uncertainty felt III regard to
certain receipts has had much to do with the
| weakness III corn for some time past, and the
restoration of confidence Inns already been felt in
tho greater tirmness Of tho market for day or
two past. Seller November opened ut 305sc, ad-
